Tim Keller Resources
WELCOME to my Tim Keller Resources page.
Dr. Timothy Keller is the pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in NYC. This is a list of every Keller sermon, article, book and any other resource I can find. Items listed with a "NEW!" label are either newly released online or new to this list. I hope that helps you locate newer items as you return to this page. If you don't find something here you can also look into items tagged "Tim Keller" on the Reformissionary site in case I put up an individual post about a resource and failed to list it here. That does happen. Feel free to link this post to help get these resources out. If you find a dead link or a new resource, please email me so I can keep this resource page up to date. Thanks much.
BOOKS
- Counterfeit Gods: The Empty Promises of Money, Sex, and Power, and the Only Hope that Matters - releasing October 20th, 2009
- The Prodigal God: Recovering the Heart of the Christian Faith
- The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
- A profound work for skeptics and their believing friends. Though I would deem most anything "Keller" a must-read, this is probably my highest recommendation.
- Redeemer Church Planting Manual - This is an excellent practical-without-being-too-businessy church planters guide. There are many helpful sections and resources in the book for pastors (not just planters) as well. I often recommend this as a key resource for any church leader.
- Ministries of Mercy: The Call of the Jericho Road
- I bought this book after one of my children was diagnosed with autism, and I knew nothing about Keller at the time. It's a thoughtful resource for churches, church leaders, deacons, and thoughtful Christians.
