A Spiritual Diet of the Word

I would guess that almost everyone listening to me is dissatisfied with the spiritual power and consistency and fruitfulness of your life. And I do not consider that anything I say is simple remedy to that spiritual weakness. God is sovereign. He changes times and seasons. And that includes spiritual times and seasons—in cultures and in families and in individual lives.

But one thing I know: There is a spiritual diet without which no Christian can be strong and healthy and fruitful. And that is a diet of the word of God.
- John Piper (Holding fast to the word of God in 2010)

On my drive into work I often try to fill my commute time with audio books, or podcasts, music etc. This morning I listened to this sermon from John Piper that was given back in January of this year. It ties beautifully into Pastor Keith’s sermon preached a few weeks back on the importance of the Word of God in a healthy Church in Action. In listening to the message I was encouraged even further about the importance of the Word of God and how vital it is to our spiritual growth. If you can find the time, maybe on your commute, take a listen.
