- The beautiful faith of fearless submission from the series Marriage, Christ and Covenant. Piper transformed my thinking about biblical womanhood by showing me that a strong trust in God is at its heart.
- Single in Christ: A name better than sons and daughters from the series Marriage, Christ and Covenant. I love the way Piper shows how singleness displays great truths about God.
- Battling the unbelief of despondency from the series Battling Unbelief. At a time I was struggling with discouragement, Piper taught me how to turn a cave into a tunnel.
- Pour out your indignation upon them from the series Psalms: Thinking and feeling with God. A good sermon on a difficult psalm, this helped me understand the psalms of retribution.

my favourite talks by John Piper
I saw this post: Help us pick Piper's best sermons. So I did. Here are my favourites - not that I've listened to many, but these stood out for me.
I've not listened to many, but found the series he did at Oxygen really encouraging (wasn't there in person, but got the recordings). I still remember his main idea that 'Right thinking about God produces right feelings toward God'. I appreciated the way he fleshed out how knowing God produces right worship of God.

because it starts with his recitation of the whole of Philippians which is absolutely breathtaking and then provides so many good reasons and encouragements to read the Bible - every day and all of it. Great sermon...I listen to it a couple of times a year.
