“God has appointed preaching in worship as one great means of accomplishing his ultimate goal in the world.” —John Piper
John Piper makes a compelling claim in these pages about the purpose of preaching: it is intended not merely as an explanation of the text but also as a means of awakening worship by being worship in and of itself. Christian preaching is a God-appointed miracle aiming to awaken the supernatural seeing, savoring, and showing of the glory of Christ.
Distilling over forty years of experience in preaching and teaching, Piper shows preachers how and what to communicate from God’s Word, so that God’s purpose on earth will advance through Bible-saturated, Christ-exalting, God-centered preaching—in other words, expository exultation.
- Written by best-selling author and popular speaker John Piper
- Builds on the foundation of two previous books, A Peculiar Glory: How the Christian Scriptures Reveal Their Complete Truthfulness and Reading the Bible Supernaturally: Seeing and Savoring the Glory of God in Scripture
- Helps preachers understand how and what to preach as a means of God’s ultimate purpose of revealing his glory in the world
John Piper is founder and lead teacher of desiringGod.org and chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary. He served for thirty-three years as a pastor at Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and is the author of more than fifty books, including Desiring God; Don’t Waste Your Life; and Providence.
