The Legacy of Sovereign JoyGod's Triumphant Grace in the Lives of Augustine, Luther, and Calvin The Swans are Not Silent: Book One What freed Aurelius Augustine from bondage to sexual immorality? What gave Martin Luther lion-like boldness in defending the supremacy of Scripture? What fueled John Calvin's God-entranced preaching and writing ministry? A stoic, disinterested obligation to do what is right? No! It was white-hot passion for their Sovereign Joy: God. They were radically converted as they encountered the real, risen Jesus and his liberating gospel in the written Word of God. And for the joy of having found the Pearl of great price, they sold everything to obtain it. Join Piper as he examines what captured the hearts of these three flawed saints whom God has used so powerfully to teach His church what grace really means. Read this book online (600KB PDF).

Testimonies
I mainly wanted to share the impact that John Piper's new book, Legacy of Sovereign Joy, has had on me. It was like a breath of fresh air. But the big conviction has come from ... Doing Missions When To Die Is Gain... All I can say is it was very convicting and my prayer is that I live my life to the glory of God. I have not come to the point of deciding on missions or not. That would be a big leap for me. But the series was also encouraging and it whet my appetite to know my God more intimately. Thank you for all for all the hard work you do. Thank you to John Piper for sharing his heart for our Lord with the Body of Christ. This is not the first time that God has used this ministry to touch my life.
