Free Audio of 21 Servants of Sovereign Joy by John Piper

Biographies were a major source of encouragement and growth for John Piper early in his pastoral ministry. His love for biography led him to prepare a mini-biography of a life that displayed the majesty of God each year for the Bethlehem Pastor’s Conference.

Over the years these talks have been compiled into The Swans are Not Silent book series and most recently in the larger compilation just released called 21 Servants of Sovereign Joy: Faithful, Flawed, and Fruitful. DesiringGod.org has audio (and in some cases video) of each of the following biographies, giving you virtually a free audiobook (preached by the author, the best kind).
