Timothy Keller Quotes

Our Truth-allergic, Experience-addicted Populace Wants Transformation But Doesn't Want The Loss Of Freedom And Control Associated With Submitting To Authority Within A Committed Community. Many "converts" Seem To Make Decisions For Christ But Soon Lose Their Enthusiasm Because They Are Offered Quick Programs For Follow-up And Small Group Fellowship Rather Than A Lifelong, Embodied Experience Of Community. Many Churches Do Not Even Have A Process For Becoming A Member. As A Result, Converts' Lives Are Often Not Visibly Different From Those In The Culture Around Them. The Older, More Communal Processes Of Traditional Churches Are Better At Bringing About A More Thorough Transformation Of Life.
