Getting Old for the Glory of God

In this message from the Desiring God 2007 National Conference, John Piper challenges us to grow old in a way that makes God look glorious.

The radical implication of this charge is that we must resolutely resist the usual American dream of retirement. Are we currently living so as to store up true treasure in heaven and not fading treasures here on earth? How will we spend the final years of our lives? How can we endure in faith through the suffering and pain and deterioration of old age? In what ways could our dying bring glory to Jesus Christ?

Examine your priorities and challenge your assumptions with this much-needed message. And discover hope and strength for such living in the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
