Now come back over to our blog where I can slap you silly! :) The only reason I don't have that book is because I am buying all the books you won't buy on the particular redemption issue! Ken,

Bro Piper is an experimental calvinist. His theology, his interaction with the text is experiential...ie...experimental. Would that our theology would pervade our soul like that of Bro Piper. I pray that my interaction with the text would have that effect on me. I want to be experimental. My Brothers,

Also, I'm a bit perplexed why you didn't already own a copy of Piper's book. Bob, Emotionless worship has been an overtly Baptist practice for too long. Piper is doing his part to bring emotions back into worship ... a move I agree with wholeheartedly. Thanks for your thoughts! Dear Brother Don (the wordsmith),

I think you meant “whet” my appetite!

Bob,

Emotionless worship has been an overtly Baptist practice for too long. Piper is doing his part to bring emotions back into worship … a move I agree with wholeheartedly. Thanks for your thoughts!

I plan on purchasing this book so thanks for unintentionally giving me a little book review to wet my appetite. You are doing good work Bob!
