The Swan is Not Silent

What sermons and messages have you been listening to? What books and devotional materials have you been devouring? What wells have you been digging for your dry cracked soul?

Sometimes I find more encouragement from those who are long gone and dead, than the living ones. Though they're physically dead, but their voices and messages echo on, into our dark, hollow voids.

I remember writing a little of what I read of Augustine in a post last year. A couple of days ago, I found an audio preaching on the life of Augustine by Pastor John Piper. I strongly urge you to download (it's free) and spend about an hour and the half listening to it closely.

Allow Pastor John Piper's passion for sovereign joy challenge, stir and even provoke you. The life message of St. Augustine is still very much relevant today, in our churches and our very own cluttered lives.

The swan is not silent, still.
