My wife and I received this book as a wedding gift when we got married back in 2004. John Piper is my favorite author and in his 125-page book, he answers the most important question that each of us must face (in 50 different ways): Why did God send his Son Jesus to suffer and die on the cross? Although the book can be easily read in one evening, it might be better read as a 50 day devotional. A revised and updated version of this book (now called Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die) can be downloaded for free at the Desiring God website.

I was so impressed with this book I purchased 10, and gave 9 copies away. Do you need a concise explanation for why Christ needed to die? This is for you.

the books and products are of the best quality that i have experienced any where.

John shared several points at a slightly different angle which I pondered. I feel it is good to get different viewpoints, but we should always double check the accuracy with the Word of God, as there is where the truth will be found!

For the 1st time, I returned something to CBD. Although the inspirationals are good, this is tedious reading for the Christians I wanted to use the book. Very "old school" language.
