Tim Keller recently posted a brief meditation on the danger of speaking out of our “inner disdain.” We read this article together in staff meeting today and found it particularly compelling and convicting.

As Keller writes, “Moses is a man who has forgotten grace, and the sign of it is a sanctimonious spirit along with words of denunciation without humility and compassion.” Tim Keller – Speaking With Contempt
