The Biblical Path to Severing Sin and Pursuing Holiness How can we overcome sin and live in a way that honors God? Many believers attempt to walk upright out of gratitude for what Christ did in the past. But John Piper encourages men and women to look ahead to the grace God provides for us...

Pastor John Piper shows how to sever the clinging roots of 8 common sins that ensnare us: anxiety, pride, shame, impatience, covetousness, bitterness, despondency, and lust. Delighting in the bounty of God's glorious gospel promises will free us for a less sin-encumbered life, to the glory of Christ. Rooted in solid biblical reflection, this book aims to help guide you through the battles to the joys of victory by the power of the gospel and its superior pleasure.

Amid the incessant demands of daily life, it's easy to misplace our affections. This devotional volume by John Piper features 120 meditations that focus on the radical difference it makes when we choose to live with God at the center of all that we do.

Skillfully prepared by pastor and author John Piper, these fresh meditations will whet your appetite for more of God himself and bring sweetness in your daily communion with Christ. In Taste and See, Piper asks hard questions and finds poignant but practical truths from the Bible on topics as diverse as adoption, God's sovereignty, body image, retirement, prayer, mental health, computer usage, assurance, rest, and many more. This substantive spiritual food will brace your mind with truth and nourish your heart with God's satisfying grace.
