Knowing God.

I've embarked on reading Knowing God by J.I Packer and i find it totally essential to any Christian who yearns for true knowledge of God's character and attributes (not that it should replace the Bible, period). It's really well written, a solid theological read, but now now, please do not let that word "theological" scare you away, theology is but a study of who God is according to His Word.
"And if Jesus said that eternal life is to know God (John 17:3) then shouldn't theology be for everyone?"
It'll be awesome if i could read and study this book with like-minded people to the aroma and ambience of starbucks (Mmm Mmm :p). The book's topical, each of God's character or attribute is written as a chapter which makes it even easier to study and discuss. But i guess the ultimate outcome of this study should be the application of what we've learned into our private lives and so, much of the time will be devoted to sharing the hows and outcomes. I think it'll be preeetty encouraging. ;)

I dont think i have a big readership but if anyone's interested, give me a heads-up thru facebook! :D
