Synopsis

From pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller comes a beautifully packaged, yearlong daily devotional based on the Book of Proverbs.

Proverbs is God’s book of wisdom, teaching us the essence and goal of a Christian life. In this 365-day devotional, Timothy Keller offers readers a fresh, inspiring lesson for every day of the year based on different passages within the Book of Proverbs. With his trademark knowledge, Keller unlocks the wisdom within the poetry of Proverbs and guides us toward a new understanding of what it means to live a moral life. God’s Wisdom for Navigating Life is a book that readers will be able to turn to every day, year after year, to cultivate a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with God. This makes a perfect companion to Keller’s devotional on the Psalms, The Songs of Jesus.

Goodreads review by Gumble's Yard - Golden Reviewer on February 20, 2024

Extremely good daily devotional. Unlike Keller's Psalm book devotional (which proceeds in biblical order) this book goes through more by theme - typically picking a couple of verses (not necessarily concurrent ones) and including a commentary and prayer to accompany every day's reading. The author r......more

Goodreads review by Brian on December 31, 2019

I love the dogged humility of his slow, verse-by-verse pursuit of the Psalms in Songs of Jesus that I'm tempted to ding him because this doesn't do exactly the same thing with Proverbs. Never mind. There's still enough five-star material in here to pervade the text. Reasonably, he is thematic in his......more

Goodreads review by Cindy on December 27, 2019

I did not enjoy this or get as much out of it as I did Tim Keller’s devotional on the Psalms. It did have some good thoughts and take-aways. Not sure if I didn’t enjoy it as much because I prefer Psalms over Proverbs generally.......more

Goodreads review by Peter on December 31, 2020

This was a great companion to 2020 - a great way to start every day. It'd usually take me around 5-10mins but if I had longer I'd happily spend more time reflecting and responding. At first I didn't find it as good as Keller's similar yearly devotional on the Psalms. But after a month or two, I start......more

—BookPage

“Superb . . . we should be grateful to Keller for his wisdom, scholarship, and humility.” 
—The Gospel Coalition

“Tim Keller’s ministry in New York City is leading a generation of seekers and skeptics toward belief in God. I thank God for him.” 
—Billy Graham

“Unlike most suburban megachurches, much of Redeemer is remarkably traditional. What is not traditional is Dr. Keller’s skill in speaking the language of his urbane audience. . . . Observing Dr. Keller’s professorial pose on stage, it is easy to understand his appeal.” 
The New York Times

“Fifty years from now, if evangelical Christians are widely known for their love of cities, their commitment to mercy and justice, and their love of their neighbors, Tim Keller will be remembered as a pioneer of the new urban Christians.” 
Christianity Today 

“At Redeemer Presbyterian and in several books, Keller shaped a vision of Evangelicalism that de-emphasizes politics and stresses care for the poor, personal sacrifice, and inclusiveness across ethnicity and class.”
