To know God

In his debut book, Jonathan Mäkinen describes the day that God transformed his life, and how the realization of the greatness of being able to get to know God deeply really hit him. A fascination with the Hebrew word yada – “to know” – was born. This word shows in a fantastic way the kind of relationship God wants to have with us.

We are created in God’s likeness and for fellowship with Him. Jesus gave his life on the cross so that we could experience God’s original plan for His creation. That is the essence of the Christian message. The Bible is full of stories about people who have met God, and you too can encounter God today! Follow along and study the book that has transformed millions of people and has forever changed this world – and read the important message it has for you today!

Jonathan Mäkinen is a business owner and has been a worship leader for many years. He studied at Word of Life Bible Center in Jerusalem and Uppsala, Sweden, and also spent time studying Biblical Hebrew at Gothenburg University. Today, Jonathan lives in Stockholm with his wife Caroline and their two sons, Isac and Josef, and daughter Noomi.
