Autorenporträt
Aiden Wilson Tozer, born in 1897 in Pennsylvania, experienced a profound conversion to Christianity as a teenager, which shaped his lifelong dedication to ministry. In 1919, without formal theological training, he began pastoring, eventually serving for over 30 years at the Southside Alliance Church in Chicago. Tozer's self-taught theology and passion for a deeper Christian life influenced his teachings, which often challenged worldly distractions.As a writer, Tozer contributed significantly to the Christian and Missionary Alliance's publications, eventually becoming the editor of Alliance Weekly. His 1948 book The Pursuit of God cemented his influence, urging readers toward a heartfelt, contemplative relationship with God. Over his lifetime, he published numerous works, many of which remain popular today and continue to inspire readers worldwide.Tozer lived modestly, choosing not to own a car and often donating his royalties to those in need. He was deeply spiritual, often described as a "man of God" who practiced the humility he preached. His legacy endures through his writings, which call believers to a higher standard of spiritual commitment and reflection.
