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 and seemingly unanswerable questions that everyone must ask, and then attempt to answer, in life. In Encounters With Jesus, Timothy Keller explores Jesus' answers to life's biggest questions by showing what happened to those who met Jesus personally.
Jesus changed the lives of nearly every person he met in the Gospels. These were powerful experiences: they can have a profound effect on us today, and also help explain not only different aspects of Christianity, but the deep questions of life itself. Timothy Keller highlights ten of these encounters - including Jesus' meeting a sceptical student, a religious insider, an outcast, even Satan himself - proves how invaluable the lessons from these encounters are for contemporary readers.
