Summary

In Encounters with Jesus, New York Times best-selling author and renowned pastor Timothy Keller explores Jesus' answers to life's biggest questions by showing what happened to those who met Jesus personally.

What is my purpose in life? Who am I meant to be? How can I live a successful life? Why is there so much wrong with our world today? Am I part of the problem? What can I do to help change that?

These are the big, seemingly unanswerable questions that everyone must ask and then answer in life.

Jesus changed the lives of nearly every person he met in the Gospels. These were powerful experiences that can have a profound effect on us today and help explain not only different aspects of Christianity but the deep questions of life itself. Timothy Keller highlights 10 of these encounters, including his meeting a sceptical student, a religious insider, an outcast, even Satan himself, and proves how invaluable the lessons from these encounters are for contemporary listeners.

Brilliant

My life’s been deeply impacted by the contents of this book. I am amazed at how awesome Jesus really is.

I would recommend this book as a Bible resource to anyone who wants to get to know the Lord Jesus better.

Excellent understanding. Compassionate delivery.

This is a fine example of accurate and compassionate Bible teaching. The depth of insight never got in the way of clear communication and care for the listeners, particularly non-Christians.

Enjoyable

Helped in my new journey. Food for thought. It is always interesting to hear someone else’s point of view, this helps when some of our usual avenues are curtailed during lockdown

Great wisdom from God’s word

Every chapter is wonderful wisdom for Christians. However, it’s not only for Christians, it addresses the skeptics as well or those who are spiritually searching. There’s so much to learn in this book I will probably have to listen to it multiple times :)

A Refreshing New Aspect of the Gospel of John

I specifically enjoyed chapter 10, when he discussed Doubt. I have had discussions with fellow Christians who said that doubting was a sin! I firmly believe that it is a part of the human condition (& we’re all human)! I wish that I had had this information at that time - but I’m definitely going to raise the subject again!

We think that we’ve studied the Gospel of John - we need to think again! Such depths.

Truly wonderful

Time Keller has helped my Christian life in more ways than I can explain here. I just thank God for him and his godly insights and wisdom. This book challenges me to love Jesus more and also challenges the non believer in a clear, honest and refreshing way.

Sublime

I'm a new convert and it was lovely to hear about Jesus spoken about in such easy to access terms. Fascinating and fulfilling. RIP Pastor Keller - the Lord blessed Watergate!!
