The Reason for God - paperback

Other information

'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

'Keller mines material from literary classics, philosopy, anthropology, and a multitude of other disciplines to make an intellectually compelling case for God. Written for skeptics and the believers who love them, the book draws on the author's encounters as founding pastor of New York's booming Redeemer Presbyterian Church... [The Reason for God] should serve both as testimony to the author's encyclopedic learning and as a compelling overview of the current debate on faith for those who doubt and for those who want to re-evaluate what they believe, and why.'
- Publishers Weekly

'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 magazine

'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

'With intellectual, brimstone-free sermons that manage to cite Woody Allen alongside Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, Keller draws some five thousand young followers every Sunday. Church leaders see him as a model of how to evangelize urban centers across the country, and Keller has helped 'plant' fifty gospel-based Christian churches around New York plus another fifty from San Francisco to London.'
