"Every Christian should read this book"

John Piper's bestselling Let the Nations Be Glad! shows that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. This thirtieth anniversary edition incorporates insights from Piper's refined thinking over the past decade.

"This book changed how I read the Bible and how I saw my life, and I believe it will do the same for you too. I'm excited to commend this new edition to a new generation of readers."
--J. D. Greear, pastor, The Summit Church, Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina; author of Just Ask and What Are You Going to Do with Your Life?

"I recommend this book as a practical and theological primer for those desiring a heart and a passion aligned with our beautiful Savior."
--Paul L. Davis, president, Association of Baptists for World Evangelism

"No book has had such a broad-ranging impact on modern missions as Let the Nations Be Glad! But don't read the book because it's a classic, don't read the book for the riveting missionary stories, and don't read the book because of the man. Read this book because it will teach you to cherish God and worship him alone. Every Christian should read this book."
--J. Mack Stiles, director, Messenger Ministries

"When working on my PhD, I asked top missiologists for their list of the best books on missions. Let the Nations Be Glad! featured on every one of those lists. Thirty years after it was first published, may this new edition give yet another generation of God's children a high view of God in missions!"
--Conrad Mbewe, pastor, Kabwata Baptist Church; founding chancellor of the African Christian University

"Churches, seminaries, and missionaries for the last thirty years have drawn heavily on this resource in recognizing the theological underpinnings to the Great Commission. May the King be pleased to use it as powerfully for another thirty years."
--Brooks Buser, president, Radius International
