Publisher's summary

From Genesis to Revelation, the providence of God directs the entire course of redemptive history. Providence is “God’s purposeful sovereignty”. Its extent reaches down to the flight of electrons, up to the movements of galaxies, and into the heart of man. Its nature is wise and just and good. And its goal is the Christ-exalting glorification of God through the gladness of a redeemed people in a new world.

One of the best books on Theology.

One of the best books in theology I have ever read. Although written for Spiritually mature people, even spiritually immature would be blessed if they carefully read it along with a mentor who is spiritually mature. All leaders and pastors shoul read this book. I highly recommend it

Sincerely, Pastor Paul Trimble

Great Writer; Narrator Not Clear

Content is very intriguing and thought provoking.

Narrator hundreds of times reads with variety of pitch yet on the end of sentences goes low and soft. YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND his last word or words. Especially at the end of a scripture quote or main point. I turned volume all the way up, went back to hear many times to no avail. Keep the print copy close if you want to catch everything.

Love the book.

John P. Really opened my Eyes to see and understand what the providence of God really is. It’s made my desire to know Him even greater than before. Thanks

Excellent resource!

This is a wonderful book. It is an excellent resource, not just for someone wanting to shore up their view on election but it really does paint a complete biblical picture of how God works in time, in and thru humanity while keeping intact man’s responsibility.

Thorough and Helpful

This book is somewhat daunting in length, but I found it to be worth the time and attention needed. It is both helpful, relevant, and thorough as Piper brings the reader through an exhibition of God's working of his plan as He "sees to it" that his will is accomplished. I would recommend this book to anyone who could get through it successfully.

Tremendous work.

Not just epic in size, this book is epic in its thoroughness and clarity. Seeing the Providence of God through Biblical lenses, from Genesis to Revelation builds such a confidence and joy in the working of Almighty God!! Listen to this audio book (which is expertly read), download the free pdf from DesiringGod.org, and buy a paper copy for your shelf! This is a resource you will refer back to often.

Best by John Piper

The best supplement to the reading of the Bible. Much needed in the noise of much of known theology, modern and of days long gone.

May God be glorified!
