Education in Serious Joy

Our great quest is for minds and hearts to see and savor the glory of Christ in all things and spread that experience to the world.

JOHN PIPER, CHANCELLOR

The Bible gives the decisive meaning of all things. But the Bible itself sends us over and over again to the world for learning. God has revealed his glory in both—and means for us to see him in both.

Education in Serious Joy

Life will bring suffering to every joyful saint. Our calling is to rejoice in it and thereby show the superior value of God.

Joy is a good feeling in the soul produced by the Holy Spirit as he makes us see and savor the glory of Jesus Christ.
