In this message by John Piper at The Village Church, you hear JP preaching on what he is perhaps most passionate about: suffering, sovereignty and the hope of the cross. It was as if I were listening afresh to his sermons on Romans 9 six or so years ago when these truths clobbered and healed me. I felt a little clobbered and a lot healed because of these words.
In a nutshell, Matt Chandler, the pastor of the Village Church in Dallas, TX was diagnosed recently with really bad brain cancer. This message was preached a few days after surgery to remove a tumor, and a few days before radiation and chemotherapy for Matt. Like Piper's interview years ago at NPR about where is God when a Tsunami strikes, he handles this very well.
