Publisher's summary

In This Bestselling Book, John Piper Challenges Christians to a God-Exalting Life

Many spend their lives on trivial diversions, seeking earthly comfort and pleasure above all else. But Jesus said, “Whoever loses his life for my sake will save it,” calling us into the eternal purpose and God-exalting life for which we were made.

In this bestselling book, John Piper warns listeners of the dangers of an irrelevant life that counts for nothing and calls Christians to the deeper joys, and risks, that matter for eternity. This new edition features a revised preface and updated statistics.

Every generation must read!

There is more to the Christian life than getting married, having kids, and going to church. Piper beautifully articulates the high calling of being a follower of Jesus and using the time we are given to promote His Kingdom.

Insightful and convicting

I appreciate Piper’s devoted attention to providing scriptural basis for his statements and conclusions. His analysis of truth is informed by the whole scope of the biblical record, and this helps me strongly consider the questions he offers about how we live our lives and how we lay ourselves out before the Lord and allow him to direct how we are spent for his name on this earth.

The exposure of this knowledge

From the knowledge I have become exposed to through this book I now aim each day to intentionally not waste my life but to live consciously to please God in everything I do✨
