In this new video, Steven Harris recommends two historical works every American Christian should read that help us understand our modern day:
1. Albert J. Raboteau, Slave Religion: The Invisible Institution in the Antebellum South by Albert J. Raboteau (Oxford University Press, 1980).
2. Perry Miller, New England Mind: Seventeenth Century by Perry Miller (Harvard University Press, 1939).
Free eBook by Tim Keller: ‘The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness’
Imagine a life where you don’t feel inadequate, easily offended, desperate to prove yourself, or endlessly preoccupied with how you look to others. Imagine relishing, not resenting, the success of others. Living this way isn’t far-fetched. It’s actually guaranteed to believers, as they learn to receive God’s approval, rather than striving to earn it.
In Tim Keller’s short ebook, The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness: The Path To True Christian Joy, he explains how to overcome the toxic tendencies of our age一not by diluting biblical truth or denying our differences一but by rooting our identity in Christ.
TGC is offering this Keller resource for free, so you can discover the “blessed rest” that only self-forgetfulness brings.
