John Piper
The mind serves to know the truth that fuels the fires of the heart.

John Piper
We ought not speak too long about God with our minds before we turn and speak to God from our heart. We must stir a lot of prayer into the stew of our theology.
John Piper
The greatest act of freeing happened when Jesus died in our place and paid our debt.
John Piper
Sin carries in it its own misery.
John Piper
