We can only grasp the gospel's sweetness if we first grapple with its offense- you can't save yourself.
Timothy KellerThe simple fact is that only if I love Jesus more than my wife will I be able to serve her needs ahead of my own.
Timothy KellerThe key question in order to change you is not 'What would Jesus do?' but "What has Jesus done for you?"
Timothy KellerJesus does not divide the world into the moral "good guys" and the immoral "bad guys". He shows us that everyone is dedicated to a project of self-salvation, to using God and others in order to get power and control for themselves. We are just going about it in different ways. Even though both sons are wrong, however, the father cares for them and invites them both back into his love and feast.
