Timothy J. Keller
“Much of the energy of Christian growth today is among non-white, non-Western people and young people who want chosen religion, not inherited religion. This is why the great cities of the West may become hotbeds of new, growing churches.”
Timothy J. Keller, How to Reach the West Again: Six Essential Elements of a Missionary Encounter
