A few weeks ago, I mentioned the term “Christian Hedonist.” That sounds like a lie, or at least an oxymoron, all by itself. At that time, I also promised a deeper discussion.
As John Piper coined the term, I will let him explain it. Enjoy this post – and then – Go Satisfy Your Deepest Longing!

Beautiful, Abby! Thanks for sharing this with us! As I read it, I kept thinking, “Yes, but…”, then I came to the last paragraph and said, “There it is!” I agree completely with what John Piper writes in this article.
I’m going to share a link to this post on my blog today, if you don’t mind.
I am in the same boat – when I first heard that term and started to read, I was almost offended – but then I was so blown away by the conclusion and I love the comparison. Please do repost it!
