About this book

Whether we’re rich or poor, married or single, in a position of great influence or not—all of us face temptation in the areas of money, sex and power. They are the dangerous opportunities of our time—opportunities to destroy our own souls, or to experience the true joy of using them for God’s glory.

John Piper shows us that when we have the blazing glory of Christ at the centre of our spiritual solar system, the planets of money, sex and power find their true and beautiful orbits.

This book is for every Christian and will help you to wake up to the all-satisfying glory of God, and discover what you ...

Endorsements

Highly readable, peppered with Scripture, personal and persuasive. This book highlights how Jesus transforms our attitude to money, sex and power for our good and God's glory. I'll be recommending this book for our church family. Once again, Piper has written a wonderfully helpful book addressing key areas of our Christian lives.

Paul Dale Senior Pastor of Bridge Church, Sydney

This new book is timely and deserves careful consideration by every Christian. It is a theologically rich, biblically faithful exploration of potential stumbling blocks to enjoying God: sex, money, and power. In these pages you will discover not only the spiritual danger of setting your hope in the things of this world but how, as Christians, we can understand sex, money, and power in ways that display God’s glory.

Dr R. Albert Mohler Jr President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

For Christians feeling trapped between the damaging idolatry of the world and the dehumanising suppression of religion, here is precious gospel wisdom for today. Beautifully written and produced, this little book is packed with fresh biblical insight. Its central theme of seeing money, sex and power not merely as dangerous temptations but also exciting opportunities to glorify the Saviour at the centre of our lives is so positive.
