I consider john Piper my pastor...as I am unable to go to church in person...I feel the Lord has given me a great treasure in this man and his ministry.

I'm a Piper fan (if you couldn't tell by my forum name), he is definitely gifted by God and I love how he ties reformed theology into life application, rather than either just one without the other.

Though I have three of his books I haven't been able to get very far in any of them. I simply don't care for his writing style. I also disagree with the idea of " Christian Hedonism." I do not think our purpose is to enjoy God as he develops the idea but to glorify God. The concept of Hedonism is to live for pleasure and he applies that concept to faith. I believe that while it is pleasurable to gloify God it isn"t an end in itself.

This is actually one aspect of the title that worries me. I think I need to further read his position so I can develop a clear idea of his ideas.

I love John Piper's book. They really make you want to have a deep relationship with our God.
