John Piper on Twitter

John Piper is now on Twitter. Rightly or wrongly, I now feel somewhat more justified by being on there myself. He wrote a great article at Desiring God explaining why he made this decision. His conclusion pretty much sums it up:

I’ve been tweeting anonymously for a month mainly to test its spiritual and family effects on me. In spite of all the dangers, it seems like a risk worth taking. “All things were created through Christ and for Christ” (Colossians 1:16). The world does not know it, but that is why Twitter exists and that’s why I Tweet.
