Ben Lacey interviews John Piper in conversation about the essential connection between doctrine and devotion. Having covered sin, man, Christ, and God's meticulous sovereignty, they affirm that sound doctrine is not merely intellectual theology but fuel for the heart. Doctrine without devotion produces coldness and pride, while devotion without doctrine leads to drift and deception; believers need both sound doctrine and passionate affection for God. What you think about God determines what you believe, love, pray for, long for, and live for. Let biblical truth about God transform not just your thinking but your affections, prayers, longings, and entire way of life. Topics: Doctrine, Theology, Heart affection, Truth, Spiritual formation
