Recently I listened to the audiobook of one of John Piper’s newest books, Think! I always enjoy Piper, because he always causes me to Think!
This short, easy to read or listen to book encourages us to love God with our mind. Many books on this topic get pretty weighty. This one does not, but still covers the topic well, and causes you to Think. While Piper definitely gets the point across that we are to use our minds and think, his focus is clear that this isn’t about a “head knowledge” only “intellectual” Christianity. But he clearly and scripturally refutes an anti-intellectual Christianity also – and relativism too. Our purpose is to study God’s Word diligently to know God better to be able to love and glorify Him better, and show His love better to others. We need both disciplined study of the Word, and to trust God to teach us through His Holy Spirit.
Piper, as always, calls us to the deep – to deep love of our great God. The narrator of this audiobook, Wayne Shepherd, does a fine job.
I reviewed this audiobook under the christianaudio Reviewers Program. You can find this audiobook here.
