J. I. Packer: Empowered by Weakness

J. I. Packer (1926–2020) dedicated himself to a lifetime of Christian ministry, resulting in decades of teaching and dozens of books. But above all, he modeled well what it looks like to be faithful amid difficulty.

from the essay “On from Orr”

As an Anglican, a Protestant, an evangelical, and . . . a 'small-c' catholic, I theologize out of what I see as the authentic biblical and creedal mainstream of Christian identity, the confessional and liturgical 'great tradition.'

Knowing God

If we really knew God, this is what we would be saying, and if we are not saying it, that is a sign that we need to face ourselves more sharply with the difference between knowing God and merely knowing about him.

Weakness Is the Way

God will make us increasingly weakness-conscious and pain-aware, so that we may learn with Paul that when we are conscious of being weak, then—and only then—may we become truly strong in the Lord. And should we want it any other way?

J. I. Packer

The weaker we feel, the harder we lean. And the harder we lean, the stronger we grow spiritually, even while our bodies waste away
