Multnomah Books Pierced by the Word: Thirty-One Meditations for Your Soul - eBook

Pierced by the Word takes up thirty-one subjects as unique as "How to Be a Refuge for Your Children," "How to Drink Orange Juice to the Glory of God," and "Embracing the Pain of Shame." Some are longer, some shorter, like the real-world conversations they so closely resemble, and each comes from the fertile mind of John Piper and is written in his own inimitable style. Together, the readings will lead to a deeper understanding of God and a cleaner, clearer relationship with Him. Most of all, Piper's approach shows how meditating on God's powerful Word can affect every aspect of our lives.

John Piper has been one of my favorite authors for the last 5 years. This little book of meditations for the soul has been like finding a rare gem at a time when I needed an uplift. Pierced by the Word is so rich in truth and instruction as well as in worship that my soul has been nourished again and again by re-reading those meditations and praising God for His Word. It has strengthened my journey and helped me keep focused on the Word.

If you've never read one of John Piper's devotional books, you're missing out. The 31 meditations in Pierced by the Word cover a variety of topics -- some practical, others theological. From drinking orange juice to battling lust, from thinking about suffering to thinking about politics -- each devotional reading stresses the importance of living by faith and living for Christ.
Your soul will be nourished by this book, as it stresses the importance of personal prayer and emphasizes the glory of the Gospel. I recommend that you get this or another of Piper's devotional books, and read it as part of your spiritual diet. It will help you fight the good fight of faith.
