I try to read at least one of Dr. Kendall’s books every year. (Since he has sixty published books, there are plenty available.) Pleasing God will deepen your faith, deal with your motives, and focus your passions.
Some may wish that God exists merely to please us. But the God of the Bible is not like that. Rather, I am gripped by what is written about an ancient man named Enoch. We are not told that God pleased Enoch. No doubt he did. But what we know is that Enoch “pleased God” (Heb. 11:5). The greatest honor of anyone’s lifetime is to have the privilege of pleasing God.
