The Living God by Alister McGrath is a good introduction to the aspects and theology of the Living God. This is the second book in the Heart of Christian Faith series. The first book, which I have not read, discussed the Christian creeds and is referenced in this book as McGrath discusses what it means in the creeds to say that we believe in the Living God. This book addresses the basic aspects of the Liviing: He is a personal God, an almighty God, the Creator of all things, and the Trinity. Where McGrath excels is using examples from his personal life, history, and other theologians to illustrates his points. I felt the book was a little weak on discussing the Trinity; however, as an introductory book into theology and the Christian faith the depth was probably just right. ( )
