"Encounter" paints a picture of who Jesus is through the eyes of 17 different New Testament people who encountered Him and/or knew Him intimately. "Encounter" looks at the person of Jesus, the power of Jesus, and the glory of Jesus, infusing biblical examples that show how Jesus interacted with people from all walks of life. This book will benefit readers by offering them a glimpse into how Jesus interacted with different people, and will give insights into His principles of human-divine relations. Ultimately, "Encounter" will answer question such as: What was it like to meet Jesus? What did people think after they met Him? What was their initial reaction to Him? Did Jesus approach each person in the same way? Where were the purposes of His interactions with people?

What is God like? Does He have a personality? The answer is a resounding "Yes!" In God, Up Close and Personal, the reader will go on a journey through many of God's character traits, which are a bit like ours, but in a "God" kind of way. We were created in His image, so it shouldn't be surprising that God can be jealous, generous, heroic, tender, romantic or even wounding. By exploring the evidence of God's personality sprinkled throughout the Bible, and adding a generous helping of the author's own experiences with the great "I AM," God's character begins to take shape in this book, and even to shimmer with His glory.

Most of us are regular people who have good days and bad days. Our lives are radically ordinary and unexciting. That means they're the kind of lives God gets excited about. While the world worships beauty and power and wealth, God hides his glory in the simple, the mundane, the foolish, working in unawesome people, things, and places.In our day of celebrity worship and online posturing, this is a refreshing, even transformative way of understanding God and our place in his creation. It urges us to treasure a life of simplicity, to love those whom the world passes by, to work for God's glory rather than our own. And it demonstrates that God has always been the Lord of the cross--a Savior who hides his grace in unattractive, inglorious places.Your God Is Too Glorious reminds readers that while a quiet life may look unimpressive to the world, it's the regular, everyday people that God tends to use to do his most important work.

"Besides Jesus, no one has kept me from despair, or taken me deeper into the mysteries of the gospel, than the apostle Paul." —John Piper No one has had a greater impact on the world for eternal good than the apostle Paul—except Jesus himself. For John Piper, this impact is very personal. He does not just admire and trust Paul. He loves him. Piper gives us thirty glimpses into why his heart and mind respond this way. Can a Christian-killer really endure 195 lashes from a heart of love? Can a mystic who thinks he was caught up into heaven be a model of lucid rationality? Can an ethnocentric Jew write the most beautiful call to reconciliation? Can a person who lives with the unceasing anguish of empathy be always rejoicing? Can a man's description of the horrors of human sin be exceeded by his delight in human splendor? Can a man with a backbone of steel be as tender as a nursing mother? If we know this man—if we see what Piper sees—we too will love him. Paul's testimony is a matter of life and death. Piper invites you into his relationship with Paul in the hope that you will know life, forever.

Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.
