John Piper on Philippians Pt 1 (Re-release)

In this inaugural episode of Help Me Teach the Bible, I talked with John Piper, founder and teacher of Desiring God and chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary, where he taught through the book of Philippians. He called this teaching a “dream come true.” Topics in this interview include:

• allowing those you teach to discover what the book is about;
• Paul's love expressed in this personal letter;
• connecting propositions in Paul's arguments; and
• the better by far of being with Christ at death vs. the resurrection of the body.
