Thank you John for this moving tribute. My condolences on the loss of a friend, mentor and colleague. I became aware of Tim Keller through your writings. Another reason I am grateful that we connected.

John, thanks for sharing your reflections. I love that photo of you two at the top! I read this a few days ago and have kept thinking about your last point. It’s been so easy to despair or feel discouraged by the question “Who will carry on Tim’s work and embody the example he set?” You’ve challenged me to not only look around at the many who are already doing that work - which gives me hope and courage - but also to recognize that I’m called to be part of that work as well. Thank you for that!

Thanks, John. I've loved reading some of the many other tributes that you allude to; yours captures a personal side to Tim in addition to the profound impact of his intellect and embodied grace. Like you, Katherine and I are privileged to have been among the thousands whose faith began and grew under his influence.

Tim would not have let you win. Congrats on the ping pong victory, but moreover thank for for sharing your perspective with us John.
