“If there is not radical, concrete growth in humble love towards everyone (even your enemies), you don’t really know you are a sinner saved by grace. And if there is not radical, concrete growth in confidence and joy (even in difficulties), you don’t really know you are a sinner saved by grace.- Timothy Keller”

“If you want to be a radical theologian, you have to be able to say, “I have no idea what is going on.” That’s being a radical theologian.”

“To be a friend of the earth, you have to be an enemy of man.”
