Joy in God is not something that automatically happens when one becomes a Christian. At some times in our lives--dark times of the soul--we really have to fight for that joy. This is deep stuff, but Piper communicates beautifully and inspirationally. It is a lot of theology, but practical ways to fight are also discussed at the end of the series. Highly recommended, both for groups and individuals. This is actually a Piper book that I did enjoy. I read this book during a period in my life where I completely changed the direction I was heading and I believe this book contributed alot to it. Of course, you still have to go through alot of the Piper jargon non-sense, but some of the latter chapters ministered to me in ways you cannot believe. I read it during a point in my life when I needed to, and it helped me to live more for Jesus and look at ways I can please Him. no reviews | add a review
