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.

Magnificent
By providence, Piper means not only that God is sovereign, but that this sovereignty is directed towards a purpose, namely the glorification of his name for the enjoyment of his people through Christ. Piper’s examination of these biblical theme is comprehensive and eye-opening.

Thorough and Well Treated
Piper gives a great treatment on the doctrine of Providence. It is a long read, but clearly a lot of thought and prayer has gone into its writing. Definitely a worthwhile read.

Exhaustive yet Readable
Piper never leaves a stone unturned and this is so true of this volume. That being said, it is a very readable articulation of some very significant topics. Add it to the reading list to work through slowly.
