The gospel destroys pride because it tells us we are so lost that Jesus had to die for us.
Timothy KellerHow you experience your present is completely shaped by what you believe your ultimate future to be.
Timothy KellerIt is remarkable that in all of his writings Paul's prayers for his friends contain no appeals for changes in their circumstances.
Timothy KellerEven if 80 percent of the population of a country are Christian believers, they will have almost no cultural influence if the Christians do not live in cultural centers and work in culture-forging fields such as academia, publishing, media, entertainment, and the arts. The assumption that society will improve simply be more Christian believers being present is no longer valid.
