"The Supremacy of God in Preaching is one of the few truly indispensable books on gospel ministry. Piper fills the preacher's mind and heart with a glorious vision of God. Reading his work will help pastors fulfill their divine calling to preach expository, Christ-centered sermons that exult in God's glory and grace."--Philip Graham Ryken, senior minister, Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia"Occasionally, among the myriads of books for ministers, a work appears so seminal to the preacher's calling it can safely be said: 'This is a must read.' Such book are not usually 'how-to' manuals. Rather they clear the mind, stir the blood, enflame the heart, and ignite the passions. They set preachers ablaze with renewed zeal to fulfill their ordination vow to do all for the glory of God and the salvation of men. The Supremacy of God in Preaching is such a book. Read it. But carry spiritual oxygen with you; for it will lead you over rugged terrain, on arduous climbs, to a rarified atmosphere where only true preaching can survive. But in that atmosphere you will begin to long to preach God's greatness, and to see his glory established in your pulpit--and all in a way calculated to bring joyful exhilaration into the nerve center of your ministry. A 'must-read' indeed!"--Sinclair B Ferguson, professor of systematic theology, Westminster Theological Seminary, Dallas"Calls us back to a biblical standard for preaching, a standard exemplified by many of the pulpit giants of the past, especially Jonathan Edwards and Charles Spurgeon." --Warren W. Wiersbe "The Bible is not a book of practical suggestions on how to live a better adjusted life. The Bible is a revelation of God. The Supremacy of God in Preaching reminds preachers of what we easily forget to our peril and the peril of the people in our care."--Haddon Robinson, Harold John Ockenga Professor of Preaching, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary "Awed by the goodness, greatness, and gladness of God, John Piper passionately and prophetically calls all preachers to make God supreme over any method and in every message. The plan is too simple for a fallen world to notice and too powerful for a faithful preacher to ignore."--Dr. Bryan Chapell, president, Covenant Theological Seminary"Here's a book that every preacher should read at least once a year. We need to be reminded that when God is central, everything else falls into its proper place. This book is a powerful antidote to the unbalanced self-centered preaching of today."--Erwin W. Lutzer, senior pastor, The Moody Church, Chicago
