Christianity does not provide the reason for each experience of pain, but it does provide deep resources for actually facing suffering with hope and courage rather than bitterness and despair

Jesus cannot be just liked. His claims make us either kill him or crown him.
Timothy Keller

If you try to add to God's salvation you subtract. If you try to add to God's salvation you subtract. If you try to merit God's salvation you haven't believed at all, even if you try to do a little bit.

The deeper the experience of the free grace of God, the more generous we must become.
Timothy Keller
Image
A Christian is somebody whose eyes have been opened, who admits that Jesus is not what you expected, but he’s what you need.
