I am a Christian resident of New York City. I simply read things the other Manhattanites read (NY Times, New Yorker magazine, Wall Street Journal, and many of the books they read) plus all my Christian reading. I don't do anything special to understand skeptics. I also talk to a lot of skeptics and read things they point to.

Without the gospel we hate ourselves instead of our sin.
Timothy Keller

Christians don't believe that goodness gets you to heaven. Christians believe it's exhausting to rely on your own goodness to please God.
Timothy Keller
Image
The sin under all other sins is a lack of joy in Christ.
Timothy Keller
Image
A triune God would call us to converse with him . . . because he wants to share the joy he has. Prayer is our way of entering into the happiness of God himself.
Timothy Keller
Image
We are so evil and sinful and flawed that Jesus had to die for us... But we are so lobed and valued that he was willing to due for us.
