Last night, I picked up on Kindle John Piper’s latest book, Bloodlines: Race, Cross, and the Christian (foreword by Tim Keller). I have always enjoyed reading works by Piper, but I’m especially interested in this one because of the topic and how it relates to my life and work.
There are two parts to the book: part one focuses on “Our World: The Need for the Gospel” and part two transitions to “God’s Word: The Power of the Gospel.” Needless to say, I’m eager to dive in.
A very cool addition to this new release is an 18-minute documentary of Piper and his past growing up in Greenville, South Carolina. Check out this excerpt from the documentary.

I will buy the book just for the fact that Piper did a front flip off the diving-board (if that is him, can we get a conformation on that?).
