Image
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
Timothy Keller
Image
Prayer is awe, intimacy, struggle-yet, the way to reality.
Timothy Keller
Image
Our character is mainly shaped by our primary social community - the people with whom we eat, play, converse, and study.
Timothy Keller
Image
Prayer is awe before an infinite force, and yet it's intimacy with a personal friend.
Timothy Keller
Image
A genuinely persuasive argument does not merely tell you that you are wrong about everything. It doesn't just beat on you from the outside. It comes inside your belief system, as it were, and affirms something you believe strongly. And then it says - well if you believe this (A) then why in the world can't you see that B is true?
Timothy Keller

Image
If your god never disagrees with you, you might just be worshipping an idealized version of yourself.
Timothy Keller
Image
Adam wasn't lonely because he was imperfect but because he was perfect. The ache for friends is not the result of sin.
Timothy Keller
Image
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
Image
Humility is so shy. If you begin talking about it, it leaves.
Timothy Keller
Image
Like a baby learning language, we learn how to communicate with God by listening to His words first.
Timothy Keller
Image
Any person who only sticks with Christianity as long as things are going his or her way, is a stranger to the cross
Timothy Keller
Image
At the cross, we see the worst that sin can do, as humanity - of which each one of us is a part - crucified the Lord. But at the cross, we also see that the most that sin can do cannot thwart God's salvation.
Timothy Keller
Image
The only person who dares wake up a king at 3:00 AM for a glass of water is a child. We have that kind of access
