TIMOTHY KELER opened Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan in 1989, and now ministers to more than 9,000 regular Sunday attendees, plus the members of fifty "church plants" nationwide. He is also the author of The Prodigal God and the New York Times bestseller The Reason for God.
The New York Times bestselling author of The Reason for God and The Prodigal God and a nationally renowned minister, Timothy Keller exposes the error of making good things "ultimate" in his latest book, and shows readers a new path toward a hope that lasts.
Success, true love, and the life you've always wanted. Many of us placed our faith in these things, believing they held the key to happiness, but with a sneaking suspicion they might not deliver. The recent economic meltdown has cast a harsh new light on these pursuits. In a matter of months, fortunes, marriages, careers, and a secure retirement have disappeared for millions of people. No wonder so many of us feel lost, alone, disenchanted, and resentful. But the truth is that we made lesser gods of these good things —gods that can't give us what we really need. There is only one God who can wholly satisfy our cravings— and now is the perfect time to meet him again, or for the first time.
The Bible tells us that the human heart is an "idol- factory," taking good things and making them into idols that drive us. In Counterfeit Gods, Keller applies his trademark approach to show us how a proper understanding of the Bible reveals the unvarnished truth about societal ideals and our own hearts. This powerful message will cement Keller's reputation as a critical thinker and pastor, and comes at a crucial time—for both the faithful and the skeptical.
提姆说,只有我们把眼光定睛在神的身上的时候,才能得到真正的满足与喜乐。否则就如雅各一样,到了早晨看到的一定是利亚,绝不是拉结,心里充满了失望。所以正如刘易斯在盼望一文中所说的,我们应该把人生的焦点转向上帝,如果发现自己有一种渴望,是世界上任何经验都不能满足...

评分必读
评分Well written and it is not lecturing the readers. But I am still not quite empathetic with it, probably because of my own personality and background. Things like these take time.
