Monday Bible Study: Desiring God

The Monday Bible Study (meeting fortnightly) has just come to the end of three part series called Gospel Foundations based on 1 Corinthians 15.

From the 1 November 2011, we will be embarking upon a 10/11 week series working through John Piper’s superb Desiring God. We will be working through a chapter a fortnight (it would be sensible to read the Introduction and chapter 1 in preparation for the first week).

The content of Desiring God can be accessed in a few different ways.

The first option is to buy a brand-spanking-new copy of Desiring God. Amazon are currently selling the latest edition for just £6.79. You can pick up a second hand copy from the same seller for slightly less (don’t forget to factor in the postage costs). The Christian online bookseller, Eden, is more expensive, but also has the book in stock.

Alternatively, you can download a free copy of Desiring God as a PDF from the Desiring God website. As this is in PDF format, it should be readable on most smart phones and tablet computers. You will, of  course, be able to read this from your desktop or laptop computer.

You can also watch the sermon series which accompanies this book, here. The sermon titles correspond to the various chapters in the book. (Please note that there is no corresponding sermon for Chapter 10: Suffering, the sacrifice of Christian Hedonism, as this was added to a later edition of the book.)
