Inspired by "Battling Unbelief" by John Piper
Faith & Belief in God's promises are so important to our quality of life. When I talk about 'quality of life' I'm not referring to the clothes we wear or the car we drive. I'm talking about the mindset we have as we walk around every day. If we do not believe in God's promises for our future ("future grace" John Piper calls it), then we're missing out on peace and joy AND opening ourselves up to sin. When we don't believe what God has promised us for the future (whether the future be two seconds, two years, or twenty years), we decide we'll handle things on our own, which in and of itself is a sin (putting ourselves above God).
I've only read the Introduction and the 1st chapter and I've already gotten so much out of this book! Thank God for the inspiration he has given to men like John Piper, who can help open the eyes and hearts of believers and unbelievers, giving freedom for today and tomorrow!
