Image
If you must choose between loving someone and acting so that they feel loved, always choose to love them.
John Piper
Image
The deepest longing of the human heart is to know and enjoy the glory of God. We were made for this.
John Piper
Image
When the heart no longer feels the truth of hell, the gospel passes from good news to simply news
John Piper
Image
Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain. What was once foolishness to us—a crucified God—must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world.
John Piper
Image
Evangelicals are distraught over the state of America because they have not been taught that we're aliens here.
John Piper
Image
May we catch enough of a vision of Christ that we will not be satisfied unless we know him more fully.
John Piper
Image
God aims to exalt Himself by working for those who wait for Him.
John Piper
Image
If at the cross every sin was covered, Satan's mouth is shut. He has no weapon. He can gum you but his fangs are gone.
John Piper
Image
We give glory to God when we trust him to do what he has promised to do-especially when all human possibilities are exhausted. Faith glorifies God. That is why God planned for faith to be the way we are justified.
John Piper
Image
Faith begins with a backward look at the cross, but it lives with a forward look at the promises
John Piper
Image
We are not as Christ-centered and cross-cherishing as we should be, because we do not ponder the truth that everything good, and everything bad that God turns for the good, was purchased by the sufferings of Christ.
John Piper
Image
The key that unlocks the treasure chest of God's peace is faith in the promises of God.
John Piper
Image
Fight for us, O God, that we not drift numb and blind and foolish into vain and empty excitements. Life is too short, too precious, too painful to waste on worldly bubbles that burst. Heaven is too great, hell is too horrible, eternity is too long that we should putter around on the porch of eternity.
John Piper
Image
I do not appeal to you to screw up your courage and sacrifice for Christ. I appeal to you to renounce all you have to obtain life that satisfies your deepest longings.
John Piper
Image
Intensity is all that matters in painting.
John Piper
Image
The goal of missions is the gladness of the peoples in the greatness of God.
John Piper
Image
The right creative act makes its own laws, and always will do.
John Piper
Image
Forgiveness costs us nothing. All our costly obedience is the fruit, not the root, of being forgiven. That's why we call it grace.
John Piper
Image
The importance of prayer rises in proportion to the importance of the things we should give up in order to pray
John Piper
Image
You never outgrow your need to preach to yourself the gospel.
