Summary:
Beginning where the foundational truth of Desiring God left off, that
"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him," this
expanded rerelease of another classic by John Piper will further
explore a life-changing essential -- "We will be most satisfied in
God when we know why God himself is most satisfied in God." Fully
understanding the joy of God will draw the reader into an encounter
with His overflowing, self-replenishing, all-encompassing grace --
the source of living water that all Christians desire to drink. The
Pleasures of God will again put God at the center of Creation and
leave the reader very satisfied in Him.Be Most Satisfied in God…
Because GOD Is Most Satisfied in God. You don’t truly know someone
until you know what makes him happy. Our pleasure is the measure of
our character. So it is with God. We can only know the greatness of
His glory, if we know what makes Him glad. Therefore we must
understand “the pleasures of God.” This is not a book about you. It’s
about the One you were made for—God Himself. In this theological tour
de force, pastor John Piper navigates the biblical evidence to help
us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him, so that
we might become like the One we behold. What the church and world
need today, more than anything else, is to know and love—behold and
embrace—the great, glorious, sovereign, happy God of the Bible.
