Few modern books have shaped evangelical thinking on joy and worship more profoundly than John Piper's Desiring God and The Pleasures of God. Together, these landmark works present a compelling vision of the Christian life centered on the glory of God and the believer's deepest satisfaction in him.

In Desiring God, Piper introduces the biblical truth that "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him." With clarity, conviction, and extensive engagement with Scripture, he challenges Christians to pursue joy in God as an essential component of faithful discipleship. This influential work has helped generations of believers see that delight in God is not optional but central to the Christian life.

The Pleasures of God takes readers deeper into the heart of this vision by exploring what God himself delights in. From God's pleasure in his Son and his creation to his delight in his people and his own glory, Piper reveals the richness of God's affections and the foundation they provide for our worship, assurance, and obedience.

Together, these books offer both the theological foundation and practical outworking of Christian Hedonism, helping readers better understand the character of God, the purpose of salvation, and the joy available in fellowship with Christ.

Perfect for:

  • Christians seeking a deeper joy in God
  • Small groups and book studies exploring Christian Hedonism
  • Readers new to John Piper's ministry and theology
  • Anyone wanting to grow in worship, satisfaction, and delight in Christ

“The Pleasures of God is perhaps the most important book that John Piper has written. It is certainly the freshest and most penetrating. Many preachers and writers are calling Christians today to be more God-centered. The irony is that even the call to be God-centered focuses attention on us, on what we must do. Certainly the Bible spends no small part of its pages telling us what we must do, but it does so out of profound God-centeredness. And here is a book that does not tell us what we must do to be God-centered; it simply is God-centered. Intoxicating.”

“In our fallen world, staring at the sun blinds us. But, by God’s grace, contemplating God gives us spiritual sight. Of all of John Piper’s books, this is the most radical. Get this vision of God, and begin to see.”

Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC

“In Desiring God, John Piper introduced us to the idea that the pursuit of God’s glory and the pursuit of our joy are not at odds, for the pursuit of God’s glory is our joy. In The Pleasures of God, Piper helps us to see that God’s glory is revealed in great part in what makes him happy. The Pleasures of God is an invitation to meditate on what makes God happy. If what makes God happy reveals His glory, and if we become like him as we behold his glory (2 Corinthians 3:18), then meditating on the pleasures of God will be a means for increased joy in God and gradual conformity into his likeness. If that is your desire, then take up this new edition and read it over and over again.”

“I encourage you to read The Pleasures of God twice—once to see the portrait as a whole and a second time to savor the sheer delight of loving a God so magnificent, so excellent, so holy.”

"The healthy biblical realism of this study in Christian motivation comes as a breath of fresh air. Jonathan Edwards, whose ghost walks through most of Piper's pages, would be delighted with his disciple."

"Aside from that day in 1960 when I trusted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, the most important thing I ever did in life, at least in terms of spiritual development, was to read, in 1986, Desiring God by John Piper."
