Encounters With Jesus: Unexpected Answers to Life's Biggest Questions

Written by Timothy Keller

Narrated by Lloyd James

What is my purpose in life? Who am I meant to be? How can I live a successful life? Why is there so much wrong with our world today? Am I part of the problem? What can I do to help change that?

These are the big, seemingly unanswerable questions that everyone must ask and then answer in life. In Encounters With Jesus, New York Times-bestselling author and renowned pastor Timothy Keller explores Jesus' answers to life's biggest questions by showing what happened to those who met Jesus personally.

Jesus changed the lives of nearly every person he met in the Gospels. These were powerful experiences that can have a profound effect on us today and help explain not only different aspects of Christianity, but the deep questions of life itself. Timothy Keller highlights ten of these encounters, including his meeting a sceptical student, a religious insider, an outcast, even Satan himself, and proves how invaluable the lessons from these encounters are for contemporary readers.

Reviews for Encounters With Jesus

[jjvors_1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Encounters with Jesus: Unexpected Answers to Life's Biggest Questions is another excellent apologetic work by Timothy Keller. Dr. Keller covers the book of John, with additional detail from the other gospels, as he reviews peoples' encounters with Jesus and what that says about Jesus and what that means for us. Dr. Keller has a very open and honest approach in dealing with doubts and skepticism. He wants us to doubt our doubts and examine what it would mean if the claims by Jesus are true. I recommend this book for anyone, but especially for those with doubts and questions about Christianity.

This was an excellent book. Loved how he described the different encounters with Jesus and what they really meant. One of my favorite books. Read it twice.
