Timothy J. Keller
“In many areas of life, freedom is not so much the absence of restrictions as finding the right ones, the liberating restrictions.”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Timothy J. Keller
“We like to think that we think for ourselves, but it is not that simple. We think like the people we most admire and need. Everyone belongs to a community that reinforces the plausibility of some beliefs and discourages others. Berger notes that many have concluded from this fact that, because we are all locked into our historical and cultural locations, it is impossible to judge the rightness or wrongness of competing beliefs.”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Timothy J. Keller
“For example, if you doubt Christianity because “There can’t be just one true religion,” you must recognize that this statement is itself an act of faith.”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Timothy J. Keller
“The message of the resurrection is that this world matters!”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Timothy J. Keller
“You might say, “If I were a Christian I’d be going around pursued by guilt all the time!” But we all are being pursued by guilt because we must have an identity and there must be some standard to live up to by which we get that identity. Whatever you base your life on—you have to live up to that. Jesus is the one Lord you can live for who died for you—who breathed his last breath for you. Does that sound oppressive?”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
