We have to be careful not to elevate our preferences to moral standards and judge others by them. We only do so to feel superior.
Timothy KellerIf you have money, power, and status today, it is due to the century and place in which you were born, to your talents and capacities and health, none of which you earned. In short, all your resources are in the end the gift of God.
Timothy KellerThe happy ending of the Resurrection is so enormous that it swallows up even the sorrow of the Cross.
Timothy KellerIf our identity is in our work, rather than Christ, success will go to our heads, and failure will go to our hearts.
Timothy KellerA job is a vocation only if someone else calls you to do it for them rather than for yourself. And so our work can be a calling only if it is reimagined as a mission of service to something beyond merely our own interests. Thinking of work mainly as a means of self-fulfillment and self-realization slowly crushes a person.
