  • Desiring God

    The teaching ministry of John Piper... 'God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.'
    https://www.desiringgod.org/

    Joy is not optional. It’s essential. We aim to help people everywhere embrace a profound truth that changes everything about life and eternity: You were created for something greater than yourself. You were formed for something awesome and magnificent. You were made to know glory — God’s glory. And the deepest longings of the human heart can be fully satisfied by pursuing that glory. In fact, God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him. We call this truth Christian Hedonism. And declaring it to the world is why we exist.
