In his provocatively-titled new book, Spectacular Sins, John Piper intends to show God’s absolute sovereignty over everything, including evil. This quote has been stuck in my head for days.
“At the all-important pivot of human history, the worst sin ever committed served to show the greatest glory of Christ and obtain the sin-conquering gift of God’s grace. God did not just overcome evil at the cross. He made evil serve the overcoming of evil. He made evil commit suicide in doing its worst evil (pg. 12).”

Everyone needs to go buy the latest from Lucinda Williams. Little Honey is arguably her best album since 1998’s masterpiece, Car Wheels on a Gravel Road. In many ways it’s the answer to that album.
