review:
In this seventh book in the essay series, Tim Keller takes on the message of the Last Supper, and discusses how Christians have two advocates: Christ and the Holy Spirit. This means a level of security for the believer.
And yet, there is a lack of joy and of fear in many Christians. There is a fear of not measuring up, but with these advocates going before God on our behalf, there is nothing to worry about. We live lives of quiet desperation, when our focus should be on the eternal.
This is the second essay in the series I've read. Both are short (and perhaps overpriced since over half the volume is a sample chapter from another book), but the quality of writing is good, and so very encouraging.
