"Perspectives on the World Christian Movement"

"God is pursuing with omnipotent passion a worldwide purpose of gathering joyful worshippers for Himself from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. He has an inexhaustible enthusiasm for the supremacy of His name among the nations. Therefore, let us bring our affections into line with His, and for the sake of His name, let us renounce the quest for worldly comforts and join His global purpose." -John Piper

John Piper's quote sums up what a Worldwide course called "Perspectives" is all about.
I have taken this 15 week course now for 5 times in the past 7 years. I highly recommend it!
Why did I repeat it 5 times? It is so interesting and captivating...and there are new speakers or presenters from all over the world.
