Hope in Times of Fear

The Resurrection and the Meaning of Easter

De: Timothy Keller

Narrado por: Sean Pratt

The Resurrection accounts of Jesus in the Gospels are the most dramatic and impactful stories ever told. One similarity unites each testimony - that none of his most loyal and steadfast followers could "see" it was him, back from the dead. The reason for this is at the very foundation of the Christian faith.

She turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus. (John 20:14)

Hope in the Time of Fear is a book that unlocks the meaning of Jesus's resurrection for listeners. Easter is considered the most solemn and important holiday for Christians. It is a time of spiritual rebirth and a time of celebrating the physical rebirth of Jesus after three days in the tomb. For his devoted followers, nothing could prepare them for the moment they met the resurrected Jesus. Each failed to recognize him. All of them physically saw him and yet did not spiritually truly see him. It was only when Jesus reached out and invited them to see who he truly was that their eyes were open. Here the central message of the Christian faith is revealed in a way only Timothy Keller could do it - filled with unshakable belief, piercing insight, and a profound new way to look at a story you think you know. After listening to this audiobook, the true meaning of Easter will no longer be unseen.

Thoughtful, balanced, thorough and real. Hopeful.

One of Tim Keller’s last books, written during the height of the pandemic, and amidst a cancer diagnosis. Yet, there is hope- he unpacks this hope for all circumstances.

Great Read

The writers perception of faith mingled with the Bible and events happening today is spot on. For me, this read was a great reminder that the times may change but Gods word does not. I believe it challenges the reader’s to walk in the spirit of God that should outweigh your race, and religious designation because you are a member of the body of Christ first.

Revealing the roots where true hope is found

I, like many others, have not been very good at unpacking the implications of the resurrection. In his inimitable way, Keller reveals how the gospel, in which the resurrection is inextricably entwined, is the ONLY true and lasting source of hope...totally independent of our circumstances. I cannot recommend this more highly. Enjoy!

Love and Strength from beginning to End

Once again Rev Tim Keller delivers a challenging thoughtful book at an important time. This year has been hard on many and the book reassures and encourages us. We are praying Tim Keller's healing.

Hope is worth the time to recognize and hold on to it

The author highlights the implications of the Resurrection if given full credence as a historical event. The main message is that it upholds our only true Hope. He is both thoughtful and thorough.

The why and how to be a Christian

Loved it, incredibly informative, well thought out, easy to understand. Explains why a Christian and provides guidance on how to be a Son of God...

Joy in Christ

A good review of our hope in Christ having paid the price so you don’t need to worry about things working out in the end.

Stunningly Beautiful!

What blessings indeed are Timothy Keller’s spiritual and intellectual achievements and erudition - his humility and brilliant deep, broad, and scintillating insights are breathtaking, as are his aMAZing physical and moral courage.

Wonderful

I loved this book. It restored my lost hope. And it gave me back my peace.

A book written for times as these.

I throughly enjoyed the book. As time moves along and world becomes more and more divided we need this reminder of where and to whom our Faith, our Trust and Hope are Truly found.
