When Christ is our supreme treasure, we are able to keep money, sex and power in their proper place, enjoying them and glorifying God with them instead of rejecting them or worshiping them.

Goodreads review by Ryan on June 25, 2018

This book is probably more of a 3.5 star book to me, and I will say from the outset that this clearly is one of Piper's more thrown together books.
