The Search for Transcendence
Tim Keller | September 26, 1993
Overview
There is a thirst in the human heart that will not be denied. It cannot be denied. That thirst is for transcendence.
Transcendence is intimacy with the infinite. Psalm 63 is about the search for transcendence. It says there is irreducible knowledge, there is terrible thirst, and there’s only one resolution for it.
Psalm 63 tells us 1) the human heart needs transcendence and 2) how the human heart can find transcendence.
