The Satisfied Soul: Showing The Supremacy Of God In All Of Life
Are you looking for a book of devotions or meditations that will fill your hungry soul? Not a book of lightweight devotions that are nice to read but really don’t impact your life, but a book where each devotion contains page after page of soul-gripping, intellect-stretching, Spirit-submitted thought?
If you’re ready for spiritual meat, then you’re ready for The Satisfied Soul: Showing The Supremacy Of God In All Of Life by John Piper.
The Satisfied Soul is a collection of meditations that originally appeared in three of John’s previous books – Pierced By The Word, Life As A Vapor, and A Godward Heart – so the book serves as a great introduction to John’s ministry if you are just discovering him for the first time.
The 120 devotional readings in The Satisfied Soul celebrate God’s sovereignty in every aspect of our world and challenge us to focus on what’s eternal rather than what’s popular. The book is filled with scripture and scriptural insights to reflect upon and will help you awaken to the truth of who God is versus who you are.
John’s writing is full of profound spiritual insights that readers who want to grow in spiritual depth and knowledge will greatly appreciate.
This is not a daily devotional to rush through, but a book to savor. I definitely recommend it to you!
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
