Yet our longing remains. Why? John Piper turns your heart towards the one true Object of human desire - God. He shows how fulfilling your duty to delight in Him can change your attitude toward worship, toward marriage, toward material goods, toward your very mission and purpose on earth Join him on a journey from desperate desire to infinite delight |
