Timothy Keller was born and raised in Pennsylvania and educated at Bucknell University, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, and Westminster Theological Seminary. His first pastorate was in Hopewell, Virginia. In 1989 he started Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City with his wife, Kathy, and their three sons. Today, Redeemer has nearly six thousand regular Sunday attendees and has helped to start more than three hundred new churches around the world. He is the author of The Songs of Jesus, Prayer, Encounters with Jesus, Walking with God Through Pain and Suffering, Every Good Endeavor, and The Meaning of Marriage, among others, including the perennial bestsellers The Reason for God and The Prodigal God.
"It is easy to understand [Timothy Keller's] appeal."
-The New York Times
"In a flood of bestsellers by skeptics and atheists...Keller stands
out as an effective counterpoint and defender of the faith. The
Reason for God makes a tight, accessible case for reasoned
religious belief."
-The Washington Post
"It's a provocative premise, in pursuit of which Keller...takes on
nonbelievers from evolutionary biologists to the recent rash of
atheist authors."
-The Boston Globe
"Reverend Tim Keller [is] a Manhattan institution, one of those
open urban secrets, like your favorite dim sum place, with a
following so ardent and so fast-growing that he has never thought
to advertise."
-New York magazine
"An intellectually compelling case for God."
-Publishers Weekly
"I thank God for him."
-Billy Graham
