Indescibable : A Review

Indescribable:

Encountering the Glory of God in the Beauty of the Universe
(Illustrated Edition)


by

Louie Giglio and Matt Redman


A Review


The heavens declare the glory of God,

and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.

(Psalm 19:1)


Science has made the truth of this scripture increasingly more obvious. Louie Giglio and Matt Redman have taken the time to compile images along with their commentary to illustrate this truth as well.

The book belongs in every church library and it belongs on the coffee table of every believer. Though that was where I read it, it does not belong on an e-reader. The images are gorgeous, the text is thoughtful. As Francis Collins once wrote, as quoted by the authors, “BY INVESTIGATING GOD’S MAJESTIC AND AWESOME CREATION, SCIENCE CAN ACTUALLY BE A MEANS OF WORSHIP.” (Capitalization in the original).

The next time I am out camping and look up into the night sky, I will remember that I do serve an awesome God.
