John Piper believes "that preaching is so essential to the corporate worship of the church that it is uniquely suited to feed both understanding and feeling. It is uniquely suited to waken seeing God and savouring God. God has ordained that the Word of God come in a form that teaches the mind and reaches the heart." This is a compelling examination of the priorities of Biblical preaching. It echoes the gravity and gladness that is experienced in the author's preaching.
