Go Forward in Love: A Year of Daily Readings from Timothy Keller. Zondervan. 384 pages. 2024  
****

Tim Keller was the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, co-founder of The Gospel Coalition and Redeemer City to City, and the author of twenty-four books. He died at the age of 72 in May 2023 after a battle with pancreatic cancer. This book is comprised of short daily readings from his books. I used it as a part of my devotional readings for the past year and would recommend it to you.

Here are 20 helpful quotes from the book:

  • Sin is not simply doing bad things; it is putting good things in the place of God.
  • Remember this—if you don’t live for Jesus you will live for something else.
  • Religion operates on the principle “I obey—therefore I am accepted by God.” But the operating principle of the gospel is “I am accepted by God through what Christ has done—therefore I obey.”
