Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.

"This book is definitely timely for myself who has been so blind to the purifying power of the promises of God. Containing 31 chapters, the author encourages the reader to read it on a daily basis for a whole month in order to soak in the truths embedded in the book. I would definitely recommend that discipline to anyone who is looking for a breakthrough in his/her walk."

" This is the first book I read from John Piper and it gave me a whole new look at how to live the Christian life!! "
— Vikki, 2/16/2014" Hard to read at times but full of truth! "
— Garrett, 2/14/2014" I am always amazed at the depth of John Piper's understanding of scripture and its application to daily living. It is not quick easy reading but thought provoking and light in the darkness for those of us who desire to be fully satisfied in God by faith in his promises of future grace. "
— Cindy, 2/7/2014" John Piper is one of my favorite Modern Day theologists. This book changed my way of thinking about God, His grace and how I picture the past, present and future. "
— Mark, 1/29/2014" I didn't agree with everything in this book. But it also had a whole lot of amazing insights and thought prevoking concepts. This is a very radical book--read it, take what you like, and leave the rest. Whatever you get from it will probably be worth it. "
— Jo, 1/23/2014" Great book, consistent with the principles of Christian Hedonism. Leaves the reader wanting more, and drives home the reality that the Christian life requires supernatural enabling. A great antidote to the notion that should sere God by working for him. "
— Joel, 1/11/2014" Read parts of this through this past summer. Its great in that you can just read different chapters at a time and don't necessarily have to read it straight through. "
— Bethany, 1/8/2014" Its been so long since I read this all I remember is it helped me reshape my misconceived view that God was an overbearing disciplinarian to a loving compassionate God. "
— Durant, 1/8/2014" I'm grateful for what God has done in my life, but the best is yet to come! "
— Danay, 1/7/2014" He does it again. Gentle in approach yet the subject matter is tough- pretty challenging. It's practical yet beautifully written. It's one of those books I need to be perpetually reading, if that makes sense. "
— Kmeirik, 1/5/2014" i learned about the power of faith and that it takes discipline to keep it. "
— Hilary, 12/25/2013" I love to read books by John Piper, but they are slow going for me. Written in a manner that requires much concentration for me, a good thing I'm sure, and well worth the time and effort. What really helps me when reading his books is to discuss them with friends along the way. "
— Donna, 12/21/2013" Some of its chapters are worth more than gold. John Piper distills in this book the very essence of saving faith. A necessary book for Christian life. "
— Sori, 11/24/2013" This has to be one of the most important books outside of the Bible that has been written on sanctification. It will shape your life remarkably. "
— Andrew, 11/14/2013" One of Piper's most important works. This book is super solid theologically and it is also excellent for its practical life application. "
— Wade, 11/10/2013" Chaged the way I viewed my entire Christian thinking. And for the first time realy asked my self am I a believer and how did I get that way. "
— Jmajors, 11/8/2013" I have never read a more eloquently written book that made me think!! Grace is no longer just a 5 letter word to me. "
— Robbyn, 10/5/2013" Such an important book in my early 20's . . . I still love it. "
— Jenni, 6/8/2013" This book had an enduring effect on me in killing sin and trusting the promises of God. It spurs one on to godliness, not because we owe God but because our only true satisfaction comes from God. "
— BJ, 5/17/2013" The thesis of this books is tremendous - we have to believe the Lord will give His grace in every situation. However the book seemed too lenghty for the content; Piper could have improved it by cutting it in half. I would still recommend it. "
— Dan, 5/10/2013" If you're looking to be challenged in your understanding of grace as it relates to the everyday Christian experience and future growth to maturity, then this would be a book to consider. "
— Tangrammz, 4/24/2013" One of my favorite books! "
— Kelly, 3/3/2013" Not an easy read by any means but if you are wanting to surrender all to the Lord and grasp a deeper understanding of His amazing grace, highly recommend you read this book. You may have to read each chapter more than once but will be transformed by the experience. "
— Debbie, 2/13/2013" Piper is an excellent thinker and good author. This book challenges the reader to believe God's promises and expect God's "future grace" to enable the believer to believe and respond to them. IMHO, Piper is at times a bit wordy, but well worth the effort. "
— David, 1/6/2013" I consider this to be Piper's best. "
— Brian, 12/29/2012" Going to have to re-read this. Too much to absorb first time through. "
— Mariann, 12/28/2012" Part of the amazing trio. "
