God-centered resources from the ministry of John Piper

Last week we announced an opportunity to give 30,000 copies of Don't Waste Your Life to young men and women going through the Army reception center in Ft. Benning, Georgia. We have already sent off the books and are trusting God to supply the funds needed to cover the costs (about $30,000). Here is our first report from the base commander:

I wanted to send you a quick update that we received all the materials this last week. It has been really exciting the past few days. I was bit overwhelmed by size of the shipment, but we quickly found a home for it. I want to thank-you, the staff, and donors for making all this possible. It is worth mentioning that I did not anticipate the soldiers to be receptive to the materials this early. In a short weekend, over one hundred books were distributed. I can't say enough that this is all incredibly encouraging that God would seek to make himself known within the hearts of our soldiers. Again, thank-you!

As of this morning, we have received $4,000 toward this project. If you would like to donate, you can visit our donations page and select "The DWYL Army Sponsorship Program."
