More quotes by Timothy Keller
Every single emotion you have should be processed in prayer.
Timothy Keller
In every other religion the indicative flows from the imperative. Which means, ‘because I do, therefore I am... because I do this, therefore I’m a child of God.’ But only in Christianity does the imperative flow from the indicative. ‘Because I am in Christ all these things, therefore I obey.’ Exactly the opposite.
Timothy Keller
God's grace and forgiveness, while free to the recipient, are always costly for the giver.
Timothy Keller
When you experience God it is deeply personal, but it's not at all private.
Timothy Keller
Jesus came into this world not as a philosopher or a general but as a carpenter. All work matters to God.
Timothy Keller
If you don't feel like praying, pray to God to give you the desire.
Timothy Keller
If we have not seen our sin and sought radical forgiveness from God, we will be unable to forgive and to seek the good of those who have wronged us.
Timothy Keller
No one is so good that they don’t need the grace of the gospel, nor so bad that they can’t receive the grace of the gospel.
Timothy Keller
The secret to freedom from enslaving patterns of sin is worship. You need worship. You need great worship. You need weeping worship. You need glorious worship. You need to sense God’s greatness and to be moved it — moved to tears and moved to laughter — moved by who God is and what he has done for you.
Timothy Keller
The best things that have been written, almost, are by Catholics during the counter Reformation: Ignatius of Loyola, St. Francis de Sales, John of the Cross, St. Theresa of Бvila.....great stuff.
Timothy Keller
Change won’t happen through ‘trying harder’ but only through encountering the radical grace of God.
Timothy Keller
Jesus' purpose is not to warm our hearts but to shatter our categories.
Timothy Keller
You are a totally loved moral failure.
Timothy Keller
Jesus Christ did not suffer so that you would not suffer. He suffered so that when you suffer, you’ll become more like him. The gospel does not promise you better life circumstances it promises you a better life.
Timothy Keller
God sees us as we are, loves us as we are, and accepts us as we are. But by His grace, He does not leave us as we are.
Timothy Keller
We must have a strong inner life of fellowship and intimacy with Jesus if we are going to have a strong outer life of ministry
Timothy Keller
How could you possibly know that no religion can see the whole truth unless you yourself have the superior, comprehensive knowledge of spiritual reality you just claimed non of the religions have?
Timothy Keller
In a smaller church your pastoring sets up your preaching. In a larger church your preaching sets up your pastoring.
Timothy Keller
No writer or thinker has taught me as much as James Hunter has about this all-important and complex subject of how culture is changed.
Timothy Keller
Prayer is continuing a conversation that God has started through his Word and his grace, which eventually becomes a full encounter with him.
