Desiring God: meditations of a Christian hedonist, c.1-4

---

This is a serious book about being happy in God. It's about happiness because that is what our Creator commands, delight yourself in the Lord. And it is serious because God threatens terrible things if we will not be happy. The heroes of this book are Jesus Christ, who endured the cross for the joy that was set before him; and St. Paul, who was sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; and Jonathan Edwards, who deeply savored the sweet sovereignty of God and C. S. Lewis, who knew that the Lord finds our desire not too strong but too weak; and all the missionaries who have left everything for Christ and in the end said, I never made a sacrifice..
