“The Christian Gospel is that I am so flawed that Jesus had to die for me, yet I am so loved and valued that Jesus was glad to die for me. This leads to deep humility and deep confidence at the same time. It undermines both swaggering and sniveling. I cannot feel superior to anyone, and yet I have nothing to prove to anyone. I do not think more of myself nor less of myself. Instead, I think of myself less.”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

“It is no more narrow to claim that one religion is right than to claim that one way to think about all religions (namely that all are equal) is right. We are all exclusive in our beliefs about religion, but in different ways.”
― Timothy Keller, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

“If our identity is in our work, rather than Christ, success will go to our heads, and failure will go to our hearts.”
― Timothy Keller

“Prayer turns theology into experience.”
