I started reading a book this evening, What Jesus Demands from the World by John Piper.



I really liked what Mark Driscoll, pastor of Mars Hill Church in Seattle wrote as a summary and opinion of it, and thought I might share it with you.

“This is a peculiar book. It assumes that the four Gospels are true and unified. It assumes that Jesus not only does things for us but also makes demands of us. And it assumes that Jesus has authority over everyone regardless of their religion, gender, race, income, sexuality, nationality, or culture. You will likely not agree with every point. But you will hear from a Jesus who is more than a soft-spoken, effeminate, marginalized, Galilean hippie-peasant in a dress and has the peculiar notion that he alone is Lord.”

I look forward to reading this and try to better understand Jesus' commands.
