John Piper (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 4, 2007

You have one life-that's all. Be sure not to waste it, and help others not to waste their lives.

This is John Piper's plea to the youth of today. He issues a passionate call for this generation to make their lives count for eternity and gives sound instruction on how to avoid a wasted life.

Though there will be risks for those who seek to make a difference with the time they are given, pursuing God's purpose is the greatest joy one can know. The path of God's glory and our pleasure are one and the same. May all come to know this, and in the end, let none say of their lives, "I've wasted it."

Included in this group study kit is a special edition copy of the best-selling book, a Don't Waste Your Life study guide, and a teaching DVD featuring ten sessions with John Piper and more. This kit is ideal for aiding study groups and classes in the study of this life-changing message.
