Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ by John Piper

This book is by far one of the most important small books a Christian could ever read, and it has completely changed my life and my perspective on the person of Jesus. John Piper's simple yet very deep language expounds on biblical truths about Jesus. Piper's premise, "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him" echoes throughout this book as He unveils "the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ" (2 Cor. 4:6). The chapters are very short (4-6 pages on average), which makes it an easy read. But the truth of Christ that we were made to behold and savor should not be eaten like fast food. Piper encourages you to savor every detail about the life, person, and glory of Christ, "in whom are hidden all of the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" (Col. 2).

I would highly recommend this book for the casual reader above everything else on this page!
