More quotes by Timothy Keller
While other worldviews lead us to sit in the midst of life’s joys, foreseeing the coming sorrows, Christianity empowers its people to sit in the midst of this world’s sorrows, tasting the coming joy.
Timothy Keller
Our need for worth is so powerful that whatever we base our identity and value on we essentially 'deify.' We will look to it with all the passion and intensity of worship and devotion, even if we think ourselves as highly irreligious.
Timothy Keller
What is an idol? It is anything more important to you than God, anything that absorbs your heart and imagination more than God, anything you seek to give you what only God can give.
Timothy Keller

Timothy Keller
Our moral efforts are too feeble and falsely motivated to ever merit salvation.
Timothy Keller
Big cities have a lot of 'younger brothers' who have left traditional parts of the world and their families for a more liberal lifestyle. But cities are filled to the gills with 'elder brothers' too.
Timothy Keller

Timothy Keller
Freedom is not the absence of limitations and constraints but it is finding the right ones, those that fit our nature and liberate us.
Timothy Keller
The church is not a museum for pristine saints, but a hospital ward for broken sinners.
Timothy Keller
It's impossible to have met the real Jesus and be indifferent. You either bow down in wonder OR go away offended.
Timothy Keller
The cross is the place where the Judge takes the Judgment.
Timothy Keller
The Gospel does not promise you better life circumstances it promises you a better life.
Timothy Keller
Happiness is a by-product of wanting something more than happiness-to be rightly related to God and our neighbor.
Timothy Keller
No matter what precautions we take, no matter how well we have put together a good life, no matter how hard we have worked to be healthy, wealthy, comfortable with friends and family, and successful with our career — something will inevitably ruin it.
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
If you say: I believed in God, I trusted God and He didn't come through - You only trusted God to meet your agenda.
Timothy Keller
We get angry when we feel like God owes us a better life than we have.
