Overview
John Piper ofrece la perspectiva de un pastor sobre la vida de la mente al retar a la iglesia a pensar detenidamente para la gloria de Dios. El nuevo libro de Piper ayudará a los cristianos a “pensar sobre el pensamiento.” Enfocarse en la vida de la mente nos ayuda a conocer mejor a Dios, amarlo más y a cuidar del mundo. Junto con el énfasis en las emociones y la experiencia de Dios, también debemos practicar el pensamiento cuidadoso acerca de Dios. Piper sostiene que “pensar es indispensable en el camino a la pasión por Dios.” Por tanto, ¿cómo podemos mantener un equilibrio saludable entre la mente y el corazón, el pensamiento y el sentimiento? Piper nos insta a pensar para la gloria de Dios. Él demuestra con la Escritura que glorificar a Dios con nuestras mentes y corazones no es uno-u-otro, sino ambos y. Pensar cuidadosamente sobre Dios alimenta la pasión y el afecto por Dios. De la misma manera, la emoción que exalta a Cristo nos guía al pensamiento disciplinado. A los lectores se les recordará que “la mente sirve para conocer la verdad que alimenta los fuegos del corazón.”
