Publisher Description
‘What are the marks of a supernaturally changed heart?’
This is one of the questions the Apostle Paul addresses as he writes to the church in Corinth. He’s not after some superficial outward tinkering, but instead a deep–rooted, life–altering change that takes place on the inside. In an age where pleasing people, puffing up your ego and building your résumé are seen as the methods to ‘make it’, the Apostle Paul calls us to find true rest in blessed self–forgetfulness.
In this short and punchy book, best–selling author Timothy Keller, shows that gospel–humility means we can stop connecting every experience, every conversation with ourselves and can thus be free from self–condemnation. A truly gospel–humble person is not a self–hating person or a self–loving person, but a self–forgetful person.
This freedom can be yours…

A beautiful book that showcases the heart of Christian living
I love this book. It is easy to read in one sitting and is a valuable reminder of the incredible freedom from judgment that is the birthright of everyone who trusts in Christ.
Journey to discover new and true identity
A short read, but imparts a lot of wisdom. Recommended to me by my mentor and makes me reflects upon my goals in life. In some ways, I can identify with Madonna that was illustrated in the book - a need to pursue greater things, but losing sight of what truly matters.
Wow
Very challenging!
