My Tribute to Timothy Keller

5/24/2023

Gentle and lowly
Humble and holy

You knew Jesus as a friend
And walked faithfully with Him till the end

To so many you were a mentor
By keeping Jesus at the center

You were such a different pastor
It was never about numbers or your fame
You kept our eyes on Jesus
Like an arrow pointing to His name

He must become greater
I must become less
That was your heartbeat
That’s why we were blessed

You were a masterful artist
Lifting our eyes to behold His face
Each sermon painted the gospel
So we stood in awe of amazing grace

You kept Jesus at the center
Inviting skeptics and friends to think
How the gospel is a diamond
How its beauty changes everything

Your life was one that spoke
Unveiling the gospel story
Now you can finally rest
As you are welcomed into glory

I can hear the Father say
Faithful servant. Well done.
Enter into my happiness
Tim Keller. My beloved son.

Thank You God, for the life and testimony of Timothy Keller.

Asking for Prayer at LHCC

2/25/2023

If I could ask for some prayer coverage for tomorrow, as I'll be guest speaking at Living Hope Community Church in Brea. Pray for hearts to be receptive and respond to His Word. Pray for God to anoint me, fill me, and use me to declare His Word faithfully. And ultimately, may Christ be honored and glorified, and may His church be revived. Thank you!

Arise 2022

Please pray for me as I preach at the Arise Early Morning Prayer Conference at Sarang Church in Anaheim tomorrow morning. It's always an honor to lead God's people into a time of prayer. Pray that they would make prayer their home and find deep joy in the presence of God. Please pray for anointing, strength, and for me to wake up on time (It starts at 5am). Thank you!

InterVarsity's Meet the Author

9/29/2022

I would definitely appreciate prayers for wisdom. I'll be interviewed this morning by InterVarsity Press for their Meet the Author series with many of their top donors and supporters in attendance. We'll be discussing my book Praying for Your Missionary and the role of prayer in global missions. We will also be spending time in prayer for the upcoming Urbana Missions Conference. A lot of important elements to this gathering, so I would love some more prayer coverage. Thank you very much.

New Semester

9/1/2022

I'm excited for the start of this new semester. I'm teaching courses in preaching as well as spiritual formation. In preaching class this week, we had some heartfelt discussions about what God is doing through the crushing of idols, the humbling of celebrities, and the purifying of His Bride in this hour within the Church. Please pray for God to raise up men and women who love Him deeply and will humbly and faithfully serve Him for all their days.

A Prayer for Ukraine

2/24/2022

Father God,

Our hearts break at what is happening in Ukraine. We pray for a quick and peaceful end to this attack. Protect the people who are under threat. Comfort those who are fearful. Release your peace and compassion in and through your church. Draw people to the Rock of Ages to find their shelter under your wings. Crush the arm of the oppressor. Frustrate their plans and bring them to utter ruin. Lead them all to the cross in this hour. Convict the hearts of every person to see each other as precious image bearers of God. We cry out for mercy. We need you Jesus. Ukraine needs you Jesus. Come O Lord. Bring your peace. Bring your salvation and blessing to that nation. Come O Lord. We long for your return. Your kingdom come and your will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. Maranatha.

In Jesus name.
Amen
