John Piper Sermons

Hallowing God’s name is a heart action that transforms and shapes every other thing we do, from instituting laws to building cultural institutions.

Sin blinds us all. We can only stumble about in darkness until Jesus takes us by the hand, and leads us into his heavenly light.

Jesus does the very works of God so that all might know that he himself is God.

John Piper | Every sorrow and every time we suffer, there is a divinely designed purpose to display God’s glory and increase our joy.

John Piper | One day your strength will fade and your body will fail, but if you are trusting in Jesus you will never see death.

We are commanded to pursue all-satisfying, never-ending, invincible joy. The place we can find, keep, and share this happiness is only in God.

If God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him, the life we must pursue for the sake of God’s glory and the good of others is the life of maximal joy in God.

How can you enjoy lunch or have sex with your spouse to the glory of God, so that those pleasures do not become supreme but appropriate? What does it mean to lay down your life for your brothers?

People see God’s exaltation and communication of his own glory as a problem, but the Bible doesn’t. The most loving thing God can do is to show us his glory.

Jesus is light and life. Only he can set us free from the chains of sin and death.

The mark of the true disciple is lasting, enduring, persevering, and keeping on in the force field of the word.

When you think you don’t know what to do, you at least know that you can pray. In the middle of transition, you can depend on God.

Scripture memorization is important and should be practiced because it is a means to conformity with Christ, comfort for yourself and others, conflict with sin, communication of the gospel, and communion with God.

The suffering of this present world exists by the sovereign plan of God, in order that the horrors of sin and the wonders of God’s grace in Christ might be shown.

It’s not just enough to understand the truth — you’ve got to see the loveliness of it. In this interview, John Piper and R.C. Sproul reflect on decades of ministry.

God blesses us in order that we might be a blessing for the sake of the nations.

Delight in God is not optional. The regenerate heart finds joy in Jesus more than anything else.

You only have one life now. Don’t waste it because this life will soon be past, and then the outcome will — for eternity — last.

Watch Now

Self-justification won’t work. Only Jesus can free you from Satan’s chains.
