Podcast appearances and mentions of John Piper

John Piper | As lovers of God's revealed truth, we confront the cultural perversions of the day — and more. We apply the truth to all of life.

There is no distress that puts you beyond the good news that God brings — not even the distress caused by your own sin.

Take up the Bible, ask the Holy Spirit for help, lay the promises up in your heart, and fight the good fight — to live by faith in future grace.

The inner essence of worship is experiencing Christ as absolute gain. It's savoring him, treasuring him, and being ultimately satisfied in him.

The call to serving others in the church — admonishing, encouraging, and helping them — is not a call to misery. It's a call to joy.

When you feel discouraged and anxious, cling to God's promises to be with you and uphold you.

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.

Thirty years after ‘Let the Nations Be Glad!' was published, Pastor John reflects on the book's beginnings and its lasting legacy.

When you marvel at the wonders of creation, do not marvel at the processes of chance but at the creativity of God.

Envy steals your joy when you don't trust that God is doing what he has promised — working all things together for your good and his glory.

The battle against lust is absolutely necessary for salvation, not just because it's a battle for purity, but because it's a battle against unbelief.

The Bible's warnings are written that you might believe and endure, and have life.

Satan cannot destroy us. In fact, God turns all his attacks finally against him and for us.

We must never belittle or overlook the fact that God employs human means to strengthen his church.

The Christian life is far from being easy. It's no stroll in the park. But God guarantees that our journey will end in glory.

Becoming a Christian and being a Christian happen in the same way: by hoping in Jesus.

A singular passion for God is not only sensible but safe — it is not only reasonable, it is right.

Paul and Peter charge Christians to use our spiritual gifts for the good of the church. But what if we don't seem to have any spiritual gifts?

All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to the Son of God and he declares, “I must bring in my other sheep.” He will do it.

Christian idleness is unloving to outsiders because it sets a bad example. It is unloving to insiders because it adds to their burdens.

When anxiety blurs our vision of God's glory, it does not mean that we are faithless. It means our faith is being attacked.

In 1959, John Murray, a Scottish systematic theologian at Westminster Theological Seminary, published the first volume of his commentary on the book of Romans, one that John Piper would later call “the most beautiful commentary ever written.” In more than 60 years since it first appeared, Murray's commentary has changed the way scores of pastors and teachers read and teach the Bible, helping to draw many readers and congregations into deeper communion with their savior. Now Westminster Seminary Press has reprinted John Murray's commentary on Romans in an beautiful new hardcover edition, updated with a new introduction by Sinclair Ferguson. In this podcast, we'll revisit this classic text with some of the pastors and teachers it has influenced the most. Along the way, we'll explore the ways in which the Paul's letter to the Romans and John Murray's commentary on that letter help us to understand, to teach, and to preach in the present day.   Music Code: LD-NDXFV0XZRVM4F

If God has given helpful skills to both believers and unbelievers, what makes the difference between a merely natural ability and a spiritual gift?

One day, we will see God's glory, and marvel at it in such a way that he will be glorified in us for all the world to see.

Worship is not restricted to an event, place, or ritual. Because of Christ, worship is now done in spirit and in truth.

Love looks on those who are doing the work of God with high esteem, and on those who are sinning with a longing to see them honor God.

It is possible to pursue God without glorifying God. If we want our quest to honor God, we must pursue him for the joy of fellowship with him.

Only leaders who burn with bright passion for Jesus and his word can ignite the same flame in their people.

How can Christians live so that, at bottom, we can say with Paul, “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me”?

The aim of missions is that the nations would glorify God for his mercy — that all would worship God for his great grace.

There are precious experiences of the love of God that require that we fight pride, seek humility, and cherish the nearness of God.

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.

Loving acts are genuine to the degree that they are not done begrudgingly.

David Mathis | Blessed is the leader who meditates on God's law day and night — not just in public, but all the more in secret.

Being a Christian is a very serious business, though not a sour business. We are simply blood-earnest about being happy in our great salvation.

If Jesus is your greatest treasure, then your affections for him should be lavish and unbounded.

Because God loves the church, he has provided a leadership made up of elders and deacons.

What you thought was a mere struggle with an anxious disposition might really be a far deeper struggle with trusting God.

God's unimpeachable sovereignty grounds our salvation. He has mercy on whom he will have mercy.

Christ bids his people both to wisely get and freely give, and he supplies us with the grace we need to discern when to do what with our talents.

God will glorify his children both spiritually and physically. Nothing can sever his unbreakable chain of salvation.

In a healthy church, the elders labor, exercise authority, and admonish the members, and the members respect and esteem the elders.

It is truer in suffering than anywhere else that God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.

Whether we focus on the riches of the reward or the refining effects of suffering, God's purpose is that our joy in suffering be sustained.

The death of Christ was no accident. He came to be crucified, that he might hang the sins and sufferings of those he loves with him there.
