The not-so-classic-classics: The Word of God Abides in you - John Piper

I don't know if you are like me but I have found that there are a few books and sermons that I keep coming back to that encourage me in fresh ways no matter how often I read or listen to them. Perhaps there are some things that these passages and the Word preached are zeroing in on my heart and are going to be areas where God will be working to sanctify me until I see Him face-to-face. Or perhaps they are just DANG good. 

Or both. 


In any case, I'm going to start with a few of those sermons to which I keep coming back and then move onto some excerpts of some books that have been influential to me.

Here is the first one. It is from Pastor John Piper entitled, "The Word of God Abides in you and you have overcome the Evil One" (might be the longest title ever). 


He's preaching from 1 John and it is good stuff...



I'd love to hear your thoughts...
