Join C. Michael Patton, Sam Storm, and Tim Kimberley as they discuss “Christian hedonism.”

MESSAGE SUMMARY: Sam Storms contributed a chapter on Christian Hedonism in the tribute to John Piper: For the Fame of God’s Name: Essays in Honor of John Piper.

Finding its roots in Augustine, Luther, Jonathan Edwards and others, the idea is that we are compelled as Christians to seek our greatest pleasure, but that greatest pleasure can only be found in God.
