A.W. Tozer
1897 to 1963
Aiden Wilson Tozer was an American pastor and writer who had no formal theological training and pastored his first church at twenty-three. He had a rare gift for calling the church back to a real, awed knowledge of God, away from comfortable religion. He wrote his best-known book, The Pursuit of God, on a single overnight train journey, and gave away most of what his books earned. His writing is short, sharp and hard to forget.
