The wrath of God was satisfied with the suffering and death of Jesus. The holy curse against sin was fully absorbed. The obedience of Christ was completed to the fullest measure. The price of forgiveness was totally paid. The righteousness of God was completely vindicated. All that was left to accomplish was the public declaration of God’s endorsement. This he gave by raising Jesus from the dead.
– John Piper in Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die
The goal of preaching is the glory of God in the glad submission of his people.– John Piper in The Supremacy of God in Preaching

The gladness of the nations through faith in Christ for the glory of God – that is the great aim of missions.
– John Piper
Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn’t. Worship is ultimate, not missions, because God is ultimate, not man. When this age is over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces before the throne of God, missions will be no more. It is a temporary necessity. But worship abides forever.
– John Piper
God wants us to have assurance
that no matter how much evil
and suffering and futility we see,
He will make all things new.
