July 21, 2020: Christianity Today:  From N.T. Wright to J.D. Greear: How J.I. Packer Shaped My Faith and Work
J. D. Greear, PhD, president of the Southern Baptist Convention:God used J. I. Packer, along with a few of his contemporaries, to establish the theological core for our generation. Knowing God remains one of the most important books I’ve ever read, one I have returned to many times and one that I have taken many others through. Packer showed me that loving God with all my heart necessitated loving him correctly with my mind. His warning—about how offensive it was to God to worship him wrongly or according to the dictates of our imaginations—was a thunderbolt to my soul. May God raise up another J. I. Packer for the rising generation.

Mar 26, 2015: Between the Times: Why God Doesn’t Remove Our Sinful Cravings Immediately
J. D. Greear recently discussed why God often slowly removes sinful cravings from his people. Here’s an excerpt:
Every Christian I know has had the experience of coming up against the same sin--again—and wondering, “Will this struggle ever end? Why doesn’t God just remove this?” (If you haven’t had that experience, just give it time.) This seems to be a frustration common to all believers, and not just with sin, either. When we experience any prolonged suffering or pain or discomfort, we have to ask, Why?
