The Satisfied Soul
The Satisfied Soul
John Piper
Multnomah Books
THE SATISFIED SOUL is a newly published devotional book by John Piper from Multnomah Books. This book contains 120 daily meditations, originally published in Pierced by the Word, Life as a Vapor and a Godward Hope, and are intended for the reader to discover the supremacy of God in his/her life. Every meditation is packed with Biblical insights and practicality in God-honoring ways that only John Piper can do. He has the gift meticulously declaring the sovereignty, supremacy, and greatness of God and how these truths can help the child of God find complete satisfaction and fulfillment in Him alone. Piper tackles subjects like loving Muslims ( “How to love our Muslim Neighbors”), hero worship (“Hero Worship and Holy Emulation”), political engagement (“Let Christians Vote as Not to Vote”), racism (“Stereotypes and Racism”) and so many more. These daily meditations bring the reader into the deeper truths of God and encourage the reader to place God in the center of our lives.
The Satisfied Soul is an excellent resource for morning or evening devotions. John Piper uses biblical texts for the statement he makes (regardless of how outrageous some may be) and places a high priority on the supremacy of God. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a devotional that goes beyond “feel good” theology and one that challenges the reader to think and to act.
I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
