John Piper Sermons

Love is the overflow of joy in God that meets the needs of others; therefore, pursuing joy in God is not optional for the sake of genuine love.

Love between husband and wife flourishes when you put God first. Only when you love God most will your life sync up with what God intends.

God is the one being in the universe for whom self-exaltation is the greatest act of love, and if we would truly reflect him, we must be satisfied in him above anything else.

Christians are precious to each other when they feel deeply what they have been saved from.

John Piper | Some believe doctrine is stuffy at best, divisive at worst. Some prefer an undefinable personal relationship to revealed truths as found in the Bible. But in doing so they are cutting of the main channel to Christ-exalting joy.

What can we learn from how Paul sends his greetings?

Christian fellowship cuts our burdens in half and doubles our joy.

Why did Paul make another trip to Jerusalem when he expressly wanted to visit the saints in Rome?

When Jesus died, he didn’t just die before us—as an example to copy—but for us—as a sacrifice to trust in.

God will not lead you down a pointless path, but to a holy ambition that meets great need for the glory of Jesus.

In Paul's ministry, signs and wonders functioned to confirm the gospel. Should we be expecting the same miraculous confirmations of our witnessing today?

When we celebrate the Lord’s Supper, we feast spiritually by faith on all the promises of God bought by the blood of Jesus.

Neither your good works nor the righteousness that Christ works in you will ever justify you before God. Jesus himself is your righteousness.

Christ gives us all we need to be courageous in the cause of speaking the truth.

Preaching is not conversation or discussion. It’s not casual talk about religious things. Preaching is heralding a message permeated by the sense of God’s greatness.

When you feel divided and distant from God, feed your soul the glorious truth of the gospel.

In all that you do, magnify Jesus. He’s the only one worth boasting about.

Teaching the whole counsel of God is needed in our evangelism so that people will encounter Christ, have the correct categories in their minds, and know and savor the truth.

Lostness is blindness to the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ, and God grants us to share in the ministry of opening people’s eyes to deliver them from the power of Satan.
