Summary
From Genesis to Revelation, the providence of God directs the entire course of redemptive history. Providence is “God’s purposeful sovereignty”. Its extent reaches down to the flight of electrons, up to the movements of galaxies, and into the heart of man. Its nature is wise and just and good. And its goal is the Christ-exalting glorification of God through the gladness of a redeemed people in a new world.

fantastic
i love this book. john hits the nail repeatedly on the head. God either is or isnt. he exists or he doesn't. if he exists then thr only possible conclusion is that everything in the universe happens because it is in his will. thats stuff we call good and stuff we call bad. thanks God that he knows better than us :)

Drivel
Gave up halfway, boring drivel. Unbiblical nonsense. Not even read by John Piper either so if you're after that don't bother buying this.

What a book
Praise God for His providence in leading Pastor John Piper write this book. I mean, there's no other thing in the world that can give us strong and powerful hope than the purposeful sovereignty of God - His Providence. I am filled with awe, reverend fear and unspeakable thankfulness to The LORD who by His amazing providence, by Grace through faith has saved me! I am all the more thankful, grateful and in awe of my salvation.

Best by John Piper
The best supplement to the reading of the Bible. Much needed in the noise of much of known theology, modern and of days long gone.
May God be glorified!

A book that discusses God’s work and our place in it
This book is wonderful - as in full of wonders!
It describes, clearly, the specific way God works in this world and our role in that work.
The narration is extremely well done - engaging without being distracting.
John Piper has done his homework. I suspect this book is the distillation of a lifetime of careful consideration of the truths laid out in God’s word.
It is truly a fruitful read.

Narrator
I liked the subject of the book. However the narrator frequently drops or whispers the last syllable of a sentence. It makes it difficult to understand. Because of this, the overall narrative seems choppy and disjointed. It just doesn’t flow from one theme to the next.

Thorough, Precise, Understandable, Biblical
This book is an excellent handling and explanation of God's all-pervasive Providence regarding all of creation and all that happens in it, bringing ultimate comfort to Christians that God really is in control and pursuing His desires for you in your own life are worthy, and in fact commanded, endeavors.
This book is thorough and addresses deep Biblical concepts using scripture to demonstrate the Truth of what the Bible has to say about God's Providence. It seems to me that many, even longtime Christians, might find some new understanding of God's workings and ultimate plan here. New Christians may need some guidance from a strong fellow Christian, but openhearted prayer is probably most important.
Thanks for a really solid book on this subject.

Excellent resource!
This is a wonderful book. It is an excellent resource, not just for someone wanting to shore up their view on election but it really does paint a complete biblical picture of how God works in time, in and thru humanity while keeping intact man’s responsibility.
