Encountering God Leads to Spiritual Intimacy and Transformation
 
Some believe that learning about God is like looking for something inside the refrigerator—the air is cool and you can never find what you’re looking for. Or perhaps the word boring best describes your experience of studying theology?
 
Bible studies about knowing God are often mechanical and systematic. In Go Deeper, Ken Jung provides an alternative way—story theology for experiencing God. Go Deeper invites you to explore your relationship with God by placing yourself into the biblical narratives. By doing so, readers will encounter the God who passionately pursues us with His sovereignty, holiness, presence, grace, and love. The result: we are transformed in the process.
Industry Reviews
"It is rare these days that you find a book that is so saturated with scripture. Go Deeper is a thorough exposition rich in biblical story and tradition. We should applaud the serious nature of this work. It will serve the people of God well in forming them in Christlikeness."
- BILL HULL, Author of The Disciple Making Pastor, The Disciple Making Church, and Choose the Life
 
“Through the power of story--God's story and yours--Ken Jung leads us into an enriching discovery of God's distinct attributes. More than that, we are invited to lean fully into experiencing those traits in our daily relationship with the Lord. Explore the Word with this good teacher, and with an open mind and heart you will undoubtedly be led into a fuller knowledge of Almighty God. Enter and Go Deeper--you'll be glad you did.”
- STEPHEN A. MACCHIA, Founder and President of Leadership Transformations, the Director of the Pierce Center at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, and the author of several books, including Becoming A Healthy Church (Baker Books) and Crafting A Rule of Life (InterVarsity/Formatio)
 
“Ken Jung has put together years of insightful analysis into an easy-to-read, yet profound book. At whatever stage of spiritual maturity you find yourself, I highly recommend you that you put Go Deeper on your list of 'must reads.'”
- BRETT HILLIARD, Lead Pastor; Island ECC (Evangelical Community Church), Hong Kong
 
“A very helpful book, packed with accessible wisdom. The focus on 'Story Theology' enables Ken to move helpfully between asking questions of the narratives to the narrative asking questions of the reader. His focus throughout is on spiritual formation through real experiences of God. As someone who works with Christians in recovery, I can clearly see how this would ground them in their understanding of the nature of God, in their understanding of the Bible, and being able to relate to what they read to real life situations.”
- STUART LEITCH, Former Pastor of Alma Church, Bristol, UK; presently working in Christian Addiction Recovery through Crisis Centre Ministries and the Life Recovery Group, Bristol, UK
 
“As I read Go Deeper, I was first captivated by the term 'story theology'. Ken's writing style is engaging and it kept me motivated as he traced some of the familiar stories of Scripture. This book brings new insights into the stories we love and challenges us to go deeper in applying these timeless truths in our own life. Great read!”
- RON EDMONDSON, Lead Pastor of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Lexington, Kentucky
 
Go Deeper richly reveals God's character as He is revealed in the Scriptures. Ken Jung makes the familiar stories of the Bible come alive and more appealing with easy-to-understand presentations on God’s attributes. In this book we discover how God relates to us in different ways and situations in life. It’s essential in life and ministry to go deep in our theology. Go Deeper will serve as a valuable resource for personal spiritual growth and development, small group ministry, and sermon preparation.   
- REV. PRISCO M. ALLOCOD, President of the Evangelical Free Church of the Philippines
 
“Ken Jung's book Go Deeper skillfully uses the Scriptures and points the reader to the major theme of the Bible, the glorious person of God. To read the stories of the Bible and to miss the God behind the stories is to misread the Bible.”
- DR. BILL THRASHER, Professor;
