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.

A short book, a lot of growth

Although this is one of the shortest books I’ve listened to - more like a sermon - Tim Keller beautifully cuts to the heart of our pride and how the gospel transforms our pride into humility. “Humility is not about thinking less of ourselves, but is about thinking of ourselves less.” This book has helped me from looking at the world “horizontally” and instead to look at “vertically”.
