@TheeRevLee Just decorative. My wife knows how to furnish a room. 😁. However, when we got it I immediately thought of the cover to Augustine’s Confessions that you mention. I’ve been thinking about it a bit and how it connects to my writing and formation. https://t.co/1m9DhjRZDo

I’ve probably read 10-12 of Tim Keller’s books. The one that impacted me most was one that didn’t make his best seller list. His book, Ministries of Mercy offered a beautiful vision of social compassion through the Church that was so instrumental in helping me live out the gospel

Every now and then I post on the books I’ve written. If you’ve connected with the content I’ve posted, I flesh out so much of it in my first book, The Deeply Formed Life (2020) and my second work, Good and Beautiful and Kind (2022). Would be delighted if you picked up a copy. 🙏🏽 https://t.co/r8uwfyfHXl
