The Providence of God with John Piper

Listen Later

Today we have the joy of getting to hear from John Piper. John Piper is the founder and lead teacher of desiringGod.org and chancellor of Bethlehem College and Seminary. He is the author of more than 50 books, including Desiring God, Don’t Waste Your Life, and Providence, the brand new book that we are going to dive into today. If you know much about him, you know there’s nobody better than John Piper to speak on the topic of God’s Providence. Our hope is that this episode will offer you an opportunity to reflect upon and meditate on the providence of God.
