The doctrine of grace and redemption keeps us from seeing any person or situation as hopeless.
Timothy KellerIf you aren't constantly astonished at God's grace in your solitude, there's no way it can happen in public.
Timothy KellerTo discover the real you, look at what you spend time thinking about when no one is looking.
Timothy KellerThe gospel is not about choosing to follow advice; it's about being called to follow a King.
Timothy KellerThere are many ways to cover up our sin. We may justify or minimize it by blaming circumstances and others people. However, real repentance first admits sin as sin and takes full responsibility. True confession and repentance begins when blame shifting ends...Just as real repentance begins only where blame shifting ends, so it also begins where self-pity ends, and we start to turn from our sin out of love for God rather than mere self-interest.
