About this listen

In Encounters With Jesus, New York Times bestselling author and renowned pastor Timothy Keller shows how people were changed when they met Jesus personally - and how we can be changed today through our own encounter with him.

What is my purpose in life? What is a good life? Why is there so much wrong with our world? What can I do to help make it right?

These are some of the big questions that everyone must answer. And any lasting change in our lives will start with a change to one or more of our answers to these questions.

Jesus changed the life of every person he met in the Gospels, through powerful experiences and words that led them to unexpected and transforming answers to their big questions. These conversations can still address our questions and doubts today. Encounters with Jesus focuses on several of these meetings - including with a skeptical student, a religious insider, an outcast, even Jesus' mother - and tells how the central events in Jesus' life provide ways for us to encounter him again or for the first time.

Life changing explanations. . .

Timothy Keller has taken my understanding of the life and finished work of JESUS CHRIST to an entirely different level. . .I am deeply grateful for the way Mr. Keller has allowed GOD to use his life and writing to bring much glory to the LORD.

Great Book for Small Grp or Disciplining Others

I absolutely loved this book. Every chapter had me thinking more deeply than I have thought, in a long time, about the personhood of Jesus. Highly recommending it to all. Each chapter leads to thoughtful discussions.

Engaging, Biblical, practical

I have known Tim Keller since before he was published and am glad to say that he has done a great job of bringing Biblical truths to many skeptics in a winsome, erudite way. This book is certainly one of his finest yet.
