Timothy J. Keller
“...the essence of gospel-humility is not thinking more of myself or thinking less of myself, it is thinking of myself less.”
Timothy Keller, The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness

Timothy J. Keller
“The way the normal human ego tries to fill its emptiness and deal with its discomfort is by comparing itself to other people. All the time.”
Timothy Keller, The Freedom of Self Forgetfulness

Timothy J. Keller
“This is gospel-humility, blessed self-forgetfulness. Not thinking less of myself as in modern cultures, or less of myself as in traditional cultures. Simply thinking of myself less.”
Timothy Keller, The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness

Timothy J. Keller
“if you try to put anything in the middle of the place that was originally made for God, it is going to be too small. It is going to rattle around in there.”
Timothy Keller, The Freedom of Self Forgetfulness

Timothy J. Keller
“You see, the verdict is in. And now I perform on the basis of the verdict. Because He loves me and He accepts me, I do not have to do things just to build up my résumé. I do not have to do things to make me look good. I can do things for the joy of doing them. I can help people to help people – not so I can feel better about myself, not so I can fill up the emptiness.”
Timothy Keller, The Freedom of Self Forgetfulness
