When our souls grow dull to spiritual reality, the character of God is our confidence. He has restored us before; he will revive us again.

When you plan, do you acknowledge what you don’t know, admit what you can’t control, and ask God for help? If not, your plans may be well-laid but wicked.

How can we make Jesus look good in life and in death? By enjoying him as better than anything life could ever give — and better than anything death could ever take.

If you want to assess the health of a soul, try asking these four questions from Tim Keller: Are you sailing? Are you rowing? Are you drifting? Or are you sinking?

His first cancer diagnosis sent Tim Keller on a quest to experience the awe and intimacy that God promises to those who pray. Twelve years later, he wrote the book on what he learned.
