John Piper — If My Words Abide in You

John Piper is on a sort of sabbatical right now, taking significant time off from public ministry.  The DG podcast is still going strong, though, I imagine they are re-posting significant sermons from the past year or two.

John Piper began this sermon by reciting Psalm 1, Psalm 16, Psalm 103, Romans 5:1-8, Romans 8, Matthew 6:25-34, and 1 Corinthians 13.  This is a great sermon about the importance of memorizing scripture, as one of the ways that His Word abides in us.  I wish I could resonate with his testimony of the value of memorizing scripture, but unfortunately this has not been a regular discipline of mine.  I’m becoming more convinced that this is an important discipline.
