John Piper Sermons

When churches gather in corporate worship, rock-solid doctrine and intense emotion ought to work side by side. God wants both our minds and our hearts when we worship.

Jesus is alive. He is working, he is teaching, he is doing. And just as he worked through the apostles, he will work through you.

We worship because of who God is, who we are, how it serves the church, and how it sustains missions.

This age is too evil for us to treat fellowship as a kind of comfortable togetherness that has no transforming, empowering, explosive effect.

God causes us to persevere in the fight of faith. Therefore he gets the glory.

When the people of God pray together, they look for answers together. We get the help and he gets the collective glory.

Jesus died to meet your needs. He rose to meet your needs. He reigns to meet your needs—and make you happy in him forever.

Signs and wonders are not wrong in themselves, but seeking them could be a camouflage for a wayward heart that refuses to receive the quiet sign of Calvary love.

The Spirit doesn’t work mainly by revealing hidden messages, but by conforming us to the image of Jesus Christ.

Prophecy is prompted and sustained by the Spirit and yet does not carry intrinsic, divine authority.

The spiritual gift of prophecy has not passed away. God uses it for the good of the church until Jesus comes.

James 5 is a rebuke to pastors that never have the faith to heal and churches that don't pray in the spirit of Elijah.

"Gifts of healings" and "workings of miracles" are for the church and the mission of Christ in the world today.

Did the apostles have spiritual gifts that are now obsolete?

The kingdom has come and it has overcome the aimlessness and futility of our lives and given us an awesome reason to live.
