John Piper Sermons

John Piper | We should accept our calling wherever God has placed us, including prison, and we should first and foremost be loyal to the Bible, not to a certain theological camp.

Our greatest need is not physical but spiritual. We crave the bread of life more than bread for our stomachs.

Jesus offers himself to us freely as the food that endures to eternal life. No amount of working for God can make you taste him for the feast he is.

Jesus’ presence brings the kind of fullness that produces generosity and risk-taking in his church.

Jesus came not mainly to give bread but to be bread. He became the all-satisfying bread of life when he gave himself up for us.

As Christianity expands in the global South, the Western church must continue to support the developing church by sending and going.

The word of God coming to us in the power of the Holy Spirit is sufficient to supply us with all the resources we need for satisfaction in God and dealing with all kinds of weaknesses in the church.

Preaching Christ must keep the enjoyment of God as the highest good of the gospel and the glory of God as the highest goal of all history.

Since right thinking is meant to fuel right feeling our preaching must not only aim at the head but also the heart.

Right thinking about God is meant to fuel right admiration for God.

The greatest good of the gospel is that every obstacle is removed from us enjoying the presence of God forever, and the only way a person comes to know this is through God’s sovereign grace in the gospel.

Preaching Christ must have the glory of God as its central aim.

The implications of Christian Hedonism are breathtaking for the Christian life.

Right thinking about God is essential for right feeling for God and right behavior to God.

The task of the pastor is to love God with all his heart and love his people by having his heart burn with the truth of God’s word and let that passion pervade his preaching and teaching.

Wherever God is revealed in the Old Testament, Jesus is revealed.

John Piper interviews Doug Wilson about *Collision*, his filmed debate series with Christopher Hitchens.

The dry root of unbelief is the desire for self-praise, but true faith seeks satisfaction in Christ, the fount of living waters.

Watch Now

The regular role of preaching in the pulpit, week in and week out, is not enough to adequately minister to the church.
