Summary of this Book...
This book is essentially a theological presentation of what the novel coronavirus / covid19 pandemic might mean from a Biblical perspective. It's written in John Piper's traditional, no-nonsense, Bible-focused style.

No-nonsense doesn't mean impersonal to me. I think of it more as no fluff. He did include the story of his battle with cancer and how that related to the pandemic battle.

I found it to be encouraging and he applied some Scriptures that I hadn't considered in light of the pandemic. He also presented six theories, based on Scripture. The book ended with a moving prayer.
This type of Book is good for...
People, especially Christians, who want to know what the Bible has to say about the novel coronavirus.
I especially liked...
The attention to staying true to the Bible and living for God's glory.
When I finished reading this Book I wanted to...
Pray more.
This Book made me feel...
Even more connected with the Bible, the Lord and even more appreciative of John Piper and his ministry.
The author of this Book...
From Amazon: "John Piper is founder and lead teacher of desiringGod.org and chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary. He served for thirty-three years as the pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and is the author of more than fifty books, including Desiring God; Don’t Waste Your Life; and Reading the Bible Supernaturally."
I recommend this Book because...
It was beneficial to me.
