In “Desiring God” Piper shows us that as Christians it isn’t just ‘ok’ to be happy, it is our duty. That to seek pleasure in God actually glorifies Him. Piper uses plenty of scriptures to support his claims, and not all of them are taken out of context.
If you are looking for a book that explains why you should be happy and full of joy as a Christian, then this is for you. If you already know that you are supposed to desire God, then you will want to find something with more depth.
All in all, not a bad read, good for the new Christian, but I won’t be reading it a second time nor will I be putting it in my top 100.
