Timothy Keller
We only fully grasp the gospel when we understand, as Paul did, that we are the worst sinner we know

Timothy Keller
The only love that won’t disappoint you is one that can’t change, that can’t be lost, that is not based on the ups and downs of life or of how well you live. It is something that not even death can take away from you. God’s love is the only thing like that.
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.
