John Piper Ministry Quotations

It's amazing how many introverts go into the ministry. It's amazing how many people go into the ministry who don't really like to be with people.

God has an inexhaustible enthusiasm for the supremacy of His name among the nations.

Without extended, concentrated prayer, the ministry of the Word withers. And when the ministry of the Word declines, faith (Rom. 10:17; Gal. 3:2, 5) and holiness (John 17:17) decline. Activity may continue, but life and power and fruitfulness fade away. Therefore, whatever opposes prayer opposes the whole work of ministry.

The greatest threat to your ministry, dear brothers, is that you lose your joy in God.

Whatever opposes prayer opposes the whole work of ministry.
