Boasting Only In The Cross

Kind of on a cross kick right now.  Being Lutheran I suppose that's not such a bad thing.  Just got back from a college fellowship night at my church where the message was heard as true as always and the fellowship was as genuine as always.  Little else makes me happier then seeing faith fully alive.  Speaking of, and in context of the cross, John Piper really brings a good cross centered message.  Piper is of the Reformed tradition so although his theology is not Lutheran per se, it is most of the time real solid.  His talk, linked below, centers around the cross.  He expounds upon Paul's words that we are to only boast in the cross, and any other "boasting" we do is because of the cross.  Well worth the 40 minutes or so it takes to hear. Enjoy!
