Monday Mission Moment

The true meaning of Christmas points beyond the cradle to the cross and beyond. Pastor and missions advocate John Piper reminds us that our pursuit this season ought to be focused God-ward. Our greatest joy should be aligning our desires with His.


"God is pursuing with omnipotent passion a worldwide purpose of gathering joyful worshippers for Himself from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. He has an inexhaustible enthusiasm for the supremacy of His name among the nations. Therefore, let us bring our affections into line with His, and, for the sake of His name, let us renounce the quest for worldly comforts and join His global purpose." -- John Piper
