Timothy Keller
Success, money, true love, and the life you’ve always wanted – many of us have placed our faith in these things, believing they held the key to our happiness. The recent economic meltdown has cast a harsh new light on these pursuits. In a few months, fortune, marriages, careers, and a secure retirement have disappeared for millions of people. No wonder so many of us feel lost, alone, disenchanted, and resentful. But the truth is that we made counterfeit gods of these good things – gods that can’t give us what we really need. There is only one God who can wholly satisfy our cravings – Keller invites us to meet Him again (or for the first time) in Counterfeit Gods. (Penguin Group, hardback, 2009, 210pp)
