God-centered resources from the ministry of John Piper

Pastor John has often commented on how helped he is by David Powlison’s thoughtful, biblical reflections on Christ and life. For example, Pastor John has written:

Among living authors who think deeply about the Word of God and the workings of the human soul, I know of no one who writes more perceptively or ministers more deeply to me than David Powlison. As I write this, for example (August, 2000), I am reading his article in The Journal of Biblical Counseling, titled “‘Peace Be Still’: Learning Psalm 131 By Heart.” I am finding myself naked before the Word of God, as if David Powlison were living inside of me and exposing the anxieties and obsessions of my heart. I am convicted and made to cry out for deeper, far deeper, freedom from pride and fear of man. There are many today who specialize in soul-care or deep, faithful grasp of Biblical theology; but there are few who do both. David Powlison does both.

At last year’s New Attitude Conference, C. J. Mahaney recommended and made available the following resources from Powlison that can aid you in knowing and enjoying Christ more:

• Personal Reflection
• X-Ray Questions

Additionally, Dr. Powlison has given a number of talks at DG conferences. Check out:
