Spectacular Sins and Their Global Purpose in the Glory of Christ (Hardcover)

In this series John Piper seeks to provide a biblical perspective on God's sovereign and righteous governance over even the sinful acts of men.

History's greatest sins do not thwart God's purposes to save his people and glorify his Son; they fulfill them. And knowing this is the key to having "Christ-exalting strength in calamity and Christ-exalting courage in conflict."
