The Power of Passionate Preaching

Piper applies his basic theology - "God is most glorified in us, when we are most satisfied in Him" - to the realm of preaching. He pleas for glad preaching from pastors who have been ravished by the glory of God through the cross of Christ and are empowered by the Holy Spirit. And he presents as a wonderful model the New England pastor-theologian, Jonathan Edwards. This is not the most technical book on preaching you will ever read. But it may be the most passionate call for power in the pulpit that you will ever consider. If I was training pastors, this would be required reading for every student!

John Piper: the modern authority on the Sovereignty of God

I've read many of John Piper's books, and I have concluded that he is a passionate man, a man who truly pursues God with his life. This book reflects that. Piper applies the principle of God's Sovereignty to preaching in his usual passionate, concise style: Preaching should be God-centered because the Bible, our faith, our salvation, and our very existence are God-centered. This is a very helpful book for any person who teaches the Word of God.
