About this ebook
Pierced by the Word takes up thirty-one subjects as unique as "How to Be a Refuge for Your Children," "How to Drink Orange Juice to the Glory of God," and "Embracing the Pain of Shame." Some are longer, some shorter, like the real-world conversations they so closely resemble, and each comes from the fertile mind of John Piper and is written in his own inimitable style. Together, the readings will lead to a deeper understanding of God and a cleaner, clearer relationship with Him. Most of all, Piper's approach shows how meditating on God's powerful Word can affect every aspect of our lives.
Whether you’re steeped in the Word of God or newly acquainted with it, these thirty-one meditations will penetrate to the deepest reaches of your soul.
With a contagious passion, John Piper awakens us to violent prayer, piercing pleasure, and fearless faith.

I rarely do meditations nor devotionals but one thing about Piper is when it comes to seeing and savoring Christ, he's a person that may have done that.
Pierced by the Word has 31 meditations for you to last for a month to start your day with knowledge and inspiration of what may have inspired Piper during his journey with Christ. I loved every bit of it and every knowledge Piper imparts within this book as well.
Some of my favorites are his ways on battling purity and the inspiration he found on fatherhood by Paton.
It's a small dynamite, as one of my friend aptly commented on it. Get it.
