“The difference between a solid church and a terrible church is pretty much up to you. The difference between a solid church and incredible success has almost nothing to do with you at all. It’s like you are out there paddling on your surfboard, and suddenly the wave comes and you ride in, standing up like you’re a Greek god. That has everything to do with the wave.”
–Tim Keller, quoted in Tim Stafford, “How Tim Keller Found Manhattan,” Christianity Today cover story
