Battling Unbelief

Defeating Sin with Superior Pleasure

The subtitle of this work, "Defeating Sin with Superior Pleasure", says it all. There is godly pleasure in applying the faith that first saved us in everyday circumstances, defeating the unbelief and lies that Satan throws at us. Fighting those lies, and the resultant anxiety, pride, impatience, and other sinful attitudes that trip us up, with what Piper calls "the purifying power of God's truth", blesses us with peace as we see God enabling us to live by faith in his promises and his grace.©2007 John Piper (P)2007 Oasis Audio LLC

Excellent

The first chapter hit me like a brick wall, I imagine many Christians will be deeply encouraged by this little book. Highly recommend.

Overwhelmed and Humbled

God has used this book to open my eyes to many sins that I just accepted as normal but are destroying my joy and freedom.

well written

John piper always gives an excellent insight to his thought process, inevitably explaining his articulate and logical conclusions backed up with scripture.

• easy to follow along
• interesting perspectives
• encouraging and applicable
• thought provoking

Help my unbelief

I always enjoy John Piper! What a great book on where our belief should rest always and where our true struggle causes us to step from Gods path.

One thing that confused me was the music in between the chapters and there were more than 4 chapters in the reading. Maybe the availability to click between the actual chapters would be great.

So good!!

very encouraging and challenging!! I've been struck by the way he made Matthew 5:8 come alive for me...
