Customer Reviews
Just what I need!
Christ centered pastoral preaching! John is a teacher but he is also a preacher and this podcast is perfect to lift my soul up to Jesus every day, thank you and please continue posting these sermons!!!!
Update: give it a chance! Please post full sermons again!
Update: initially I struggled with the format change. Seems altogether silly to reflect on now. I am thankful that old sermons are coming out of the archives and (if not entire sermons) then significant highlights are being republished. This new format has proved to be a tremendous blessing to me. Thank you!!

I have been a longtime listener to this podcast and do not like this change to 20 minute excerpts. Pastor John has far and away been the most influential preacher in my life apart from my local church, and full sermons once posted here were instrumental to my spiritual growth. Old sermons can be accessed on the DG website, but this podcast format was quick and easy for complete sermons. Please bring them back!!!!!!!!!
Fix Audio?
Love listening when I can. Everything about the podcast is amazing except one thing:
Due to Piper’s wide range of volume, when he gets quiet or whispers, I can’t hear and lose the flow. If I turn it up, it’s way to loud when he gets excited/loud.
Is there a way to flatten the audio so that I can hear the quiet parts without turning way up?
Thanks!
