Keller, Counterfeit Gods
…working through an excellent book that speaks straight to the heart, Tim Keller’s Counterfeit Gods. Two quotes for now, more thoughts another time:
We never imagine that getting our heart’s deepest desires might be the worst thing that can ever happen to us.
Jesus must become more beautiful to your imagination, more attractive to your heart, than your idol…If you uproot the idol and fail to ‘plant’ the love of Christ in its place, the idol will grow back.
