What I love about this episode is that a) Collin asked the much-needed, thought-provoking, wide-spanning questions. b) Tim and Kathy are always very thorough in all that they do, including providing their responses in this interview. Thank you all very much for this. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love you, Tim and Kathy Keller. Thank you so much for loving Jesus and for sharing your wisdom with us. It’s like a fresh wave of oxygen into my soul.
A historical novel that might be new to the Kellers because it was written in Spanish and “Catalán” is “Catedral de Mar”, which I first read in English in a great translation, and the sequel, about the son of the protagonist of the first novel, is “Herederos de la Tierra”, both by Ildefonso Falcones. It’s the medieval story of Barcelona during the 13th and 14th centuries. I have now bought the special hard bound edition of the first book.
Where can i find the website "With Hands Open" that Kathy mentioned in 34:11 ...i couldn't seem to find it...if anyone can send me the link i will be very grateful
The economy's become more unequal? Absolutely not, distribution of wealth has become more unequal; people's ability to afford and purchase items has become stronger. people who spend every waking minute investing money will always have a larger return than those who drink alcohol and play Xbox.
Secondly dual income families is now the rule rather than the exception. This has nothing to do with changing or harshening economic standards but rather how labor supply has been distributed. This is what America chose when we chose to make women human capital for the labor force.
I would never encourage someone to get married. You should only get married when you feel you cannot, not marry this particular person. Marriage requires extraordinary life long commitment it should not be engaged in out of custom, expectation and obligation. (Happily married 42 yrs)
What do you mean by “You should only get married when you feel you cannot, not marry this particular person”? I don’t believe there is any biblical backing for that, and Tim and Kathy come from a biblical perspective.
@@theodorebe Much of this discussion consists of their opinions that are not directly addressed in the Bible. I gave my opinion based upon my own experience and observations in others. Lifelong marriage requires an extraordinary desire and commitment. It's my opinion that you should avoid it unless you have an overwhelming, compelling and irresistible desire for another person.
@@Steelhorsecowboy okay, I know some “successful” arranged marriages (though I’m not advocating for that), I just know it’s tricky to emphasize “desire” especially if that’s merely a hormonal feeling when deciding whether to join yourself to someone
This is an important discussion and I appreciate it! However, with regard to the Me Too moment, it is about bringing attention to rape culture and advocacy for survivors of sexual assault. Let's not vilinnize or disparage women for challenging the feeling of pressure to be silent or protect male perpetrators from due justice. Women are also perpetrators and some perpetrators identify as Christian. I am a Christian. I ask, why Christians often refuse to hold men, including Christian men,accountable for their actions, specifically sexual assault and saxual coercion? Let's not be so quick to blame women or easily talk about casual sex as if it is primarily a women's promiscuity problem. When I hear many of the statements in the discussion, I hear more than due blame placed on women and not nearly enough of a call to change and accountability toward men. God addressed Adam directly, not Eve. That is a model of with whom ro start.
