I just recently finished a book by John Piper known as Spectacular Sins and their Global Purpose in the Glory of Christ. It was absolutely amazing. I have just finished the first chapter of another book in which Piper made a contribution that is closely related to this topic (see above for title). The idea of God's sovereignty has been an issue of much contemplation and study lately, and, to be honest, has really revolutionized my view of God. Understanding God's sovereignty in a fuller extent has done so much to deepen my sense of awe and humility when I approach God. The best part about this is, you too can benefit from the amazing resources of Piper by merely clicking here!

In his book Spectacular Sins, he discusses the role of God and God's sovereignty in such sinful acts as the Tower of Babel's construction, the Fall, the selling of Joseph into slavery, and the death of Christ. All of these events, as Piper argues, bring about the glory of Christ.

You seriously need to check out some of this stuff.
This pastor does amazing theology that is bound to Scriptural truth (as if there is really any other way), always pointing to Christ, and is aimed at empowering the believer to a fuller reliance in the Supreme God.
Absolutely incredible.

May You Grow in the Love of Knowledge of Christ,
