The God Who Dwells
A Theology of Creation and Redemption
From the opening pages of Scripture to its final vision of glory, the Bible tells one unified story-the story of the God who desires to dwell with His people.
In The God Who Dwells, Monday Oshili traces the grand narrative of Scripture from creation to new creation, revealing the unfolding purpose of God through covenant, redemption, and fulfillment in Christ. Rather than treating the Bible as a collection of disconnected teachings, this work explores its profound theological unity and the consistent theme of divine presence.
Beginning with the creation of the world and humanity's calling in Eden, the book follows the redemptive arc of Scripture through the fall, the covenantal formation of Israel, the crisis of kingship and temple, and the prophetic anticipation of a coming Messiah. It then examines the fulfillment of these promises in Jesus Christ and culminates in the ultimate hope of the Christian faith-God dwelling with humanity in the new creation.
Written with both theological depth and pastoral clarity, The God Who Dwells invites readers to see Scripture as a coherent story of redemption, restoration, and glory.
This book is ideal for pastors, students of theology, and thoughtful readers seeking to understand the Bible's overarching message and the enduring hope found in the presence of God
