WHAT IS SOLID JOYS?
Solid Joys is a daily devotional written and read by John Piper. These short, substantive readings are drawn from decades of his preaching and writing, and each one takes only a few minutes. That is all it takes to reset your whole day around the greatness of God. Every devotional points you to a passage of Scripture and helps you see and savor what God is really like. The aim isn't merely information, but joy: to feed your joy in Jesus every day of the year.

WHO IT'S FOR
• Anyone longing for a simple, faithful daily rhythm in God's Word.
• Longtime readers of Desiring God and John Piper as well as anyone meeting him for the first time.
• Readers who want their devotional to travel with them, online or off.


ABOUT DESIRING GOD
Desiring God exists to help people everywhere embrace a passion for the glory of God and the good of all peoples through Jesus Christ. For more than three decades, John Piper's Solid Joys has helped readers start the day grounded, focused, and glad in God. This is just the beginning — more is being built into the app. For now, we'd love for Solid Joys to become part of your every day.

Ratings and reviews

Finally, a dedicated app for my favorite website! After years of perusing a shortcut button on my homescreen, here we go! Eager to see more updates in the next moments such as reading articles from the app, listening to Light+Truth and APJ, and it's been my silent prayer even before that highlighting, annotating, and bookmarking articles in our account would be made possible! Thanks for this, DG. Soli Deo Gloria! 🙏

I saw these pop up on YouTube and listened to a couple. It is tilted His Time is Perfect. The time of that devotional could not have been perfect. I am excited about this app and using it as a part of my daily devotional.

The material shared was just right, not too lengthy, apt and needs-based. I enjoy the app. It's a joy booster!
