Timothy J. Keller
“Building our lives on something besides God not only hurts us if we don’t get the desires of our hearts, but also if we do.”
Timothy J. Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Donald Miller
“In every line of copy we write, we’re either serving the customer’s story or descending into confusion; we’re either making music or making noise.”
Donald Miller, Summary of Building a StoryBrand: Clarify Your Message So Customers Will Listen by Donald Miller

Timothy J. Keller
“Evolution, therefore, cannot account for the origin of our moral feelings, let alone for the fact that we all believe there are external moral standards by which moral feelings are evaluated.”
Timothy J. Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Timothy J. Keller
“Atheists and agnostics ask for this kind of “proof” for God, but are not alone in holding to strong rationalism. Many Christians claim that their arguments for faith are so strong that all who reject them are simply closing their minds to the truth out of fear or stubbornness.4 Despite all the books calling Christians to provide proofs for their beliefs, you won’t see philosophers doing so, not even the most atheistic. The great majority think that strong rationalism is nearly impossible to defend.5 To begin with, it can’t live up to its own standards. How could you empirically prove that no one should believe something without empirical proof?”
Timothy J. Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Timothy J. Keller
“Everything we know in this world is “contingent,” has a cause outside of itself. Therefore the universe, which is just a huge pile of such contingent entities, would itself have to be dependent on some cause outside of itself. Something had to make the Big Bang happen—but what? What could that be but something outside of nature, a supernatural, noncontingent being that exists from itself.”
Timothy J. Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
