God has provided a way for all people, not just scholars, to know that the Bible is the Word of God. John Piper has devoted his life to showing us that the glory of God is object of the soul's happiness. Now, his burden in this book is to demonstrate that this same glory is the ground of the mind's certainty.
God's peculiar glory shines through his Word. The Spirit of God enlightens the eyes of our hearts. And in one self-authenticating sight, our minds are sure and our hearts are satisfied. Justified certainty and solid joy meet in the peculiar glory of God.

- Great book, but a strange problem on my part
-
I love books by John Piper, and they've been some of the most influential books I've ever read. I love the fact that his books are so scriptural--they're full of scripture references. Unfortunately, this has revealed to me something that really bugs me about christian audio books. When there are a lot of references to scripture, like in Piper's books, the constant pausing of the stream of thought to mention the reference becomes really distracting for me. I don't notice that so much when I'm reading, but in an audiobook it becomes unbearable. I wonder if narrators would ever consider omitting these references, since it's unlikely that we can look them up anyway while listening. I'm sad that I was so bothered by this. Maybe it was just my frame of mind and I can get back to it again later.
Overall - A powerful apologetic of the Book
-
It's one of those books that has and continues to bear fruit after finishing it.
Overall - Excellent book

Excellent book as are all by Pastor John Piper. I do prefer a narrator that is more passionate in the genre of Pastor John (like Grover Gardner or David Cochran Heath-- who read my own "The Journey Home" book)

- Disappointing voice for the recording.
-
I haven't listened to most of the book yet, but I just wanted to comment that the person reading - PJ Oakland? - was very disappointing. At first I thought it was just a computer generated voice. When you expect Piper's passion and get something less, it's tough to listen to.
Overall - Good
