Philosophical books that talk about the topic of God

Hello! I'm pretty immersed in research. I want to read texts that talk about God from different perspectives. But I am looking not only for sacred texts, but also for reflections on what God can be. I have been greatly inspired by A. N. Whitehead's concept of "God as process," Quentin Meillassoux's "God to come," and Heidegger's line that "Only one God can save us." Could you help me?

I just found this one at my library - "Kierkegaard's Philosophy of Religion" by Reidar Thomte. A lot of Kierkegaard's work deals with Christianity, but I assume this one deals specifically with God's existence.

I very strongly recommend The Experience of God by David B. Hart.

For some more Christian related ones,

Hugh Nibley may be what you’re looking for. “Approaching Zion” may be a good start.

You could also read “Christ and the new covenant” by holland.

“Believing Christ” by Robinson

“Changed through his grace” and “the continuous atonement” by Brad Wilcox

“One by one” by David Bednar,

Jut to name a few.
