This book is a cry from the heart of John Piper. He is pleading that God himself, as revealed in Christ's death and resurrection, is the ultimate and greatest gift of the gospel . . . All God’s good gifts are loving to the degree that they lead us to God himself. That is what God's love is: his commitment to do everything necessary (most painfully in the death of his Son) to enthrall us with what is most deeply and durably satisfying -- namely, himself.
