Piper, John
Description
Some people spend their lives on trivial diversions, seeking worldly comfort and pleasure above all else. But Jesus said, "Whoever loses his life for my sake will save it," pointing to the eternal purpose and God-exalting joy to which all Christians are called. In this best-selling book, John Piper passionately warns readers of the dangers of a life that counts for nothing, calling Christians to take risks in their lives that matter for eternity—with a passion for the glory of God that seeks to make much of him in all spheres of life. This gift edition has a new cloth-over-board cover and ribbon marker.
