More quotes by Timothy Keller
The Gospel does not promise you better life circumstances it promises you a better life.
Timothy Keller
The key question in order to change you is not 'What would Jesus do?' but What has Jesus done for you?
Timothy Keller
If you're avoiding sin and living morally so that God will have to bless you and save you, then you may be looking to Jesus as a teacher, model, and helper, but ironically you are avoiding him as Savior. You are trusting in your own goodness rather than in Jesus for your standing with God.
Timothy Keller
Public faith means going public with what’s in your heart, with humility and respect for others, as we speak of the truth of the gospel.
Timothy Keller
If this world was made by a triune God, relationships of love are what life is really all about.
Timothy Keller
No one is exempt from trials and tribulations. In fact, this is often what happens to people God loves very much, for it is part of God’s often mysterious and good plan for turning us into something great.
Timothy Keller
The key to continual and deeper spiritual renewal and revival is the continual re-discovery of the gospel.
Timothy Keller

Timothy Keller
Describe the God you've rejected. Describe the God you don't believe in. Maybe I don't believe in that God either.
Timothy Keller
God looks at the anxious and says, I tore my Son to shreds for you, and you're afraid I will not give you what you need?
Timothy Keller
If you aren't constantly astonished at God's grace in your solitude, there's no way it can happen in public.
Timothy Keller
God's reckless grace is our greatest hope.
Timothy Keller
Love is counting someone else’s needs and interests as more important than your own needs or interests or comfort.
Timothy Keller
Prayer should be done regularly, persistently, resolutely, and tenaciously at least daily, whether we feel like it or not.
Timothy Keller
Most people want Jesus as a consultant rather than a King, and He does not come that way.
Timothy Keller
I am so bad that He had to die. I am so loved that He was glad to die.
Timothy Keller
Jesus does not just bring good news he is the good news.
Timothy Keller
Many times people think if God has called you to something, he's promising you success. He might be calling you to fail to prepare you for something else through the failure.
Timothy Keller
Religion makes us proud of what we have done. The Gospel makes us proud of what Jesus has done.
Timothy Keller
Without the gospel we hate ourselves instead of our sin.
