Keller the Bestseller
Tim Keller’s book “The Reason for God” has made it all the way to #7 on the New York Times list of bestsellers–quite an accomplishment for this kind of book! Don’t you think it’s time to read it?

When Christians Crash and Burn

The pictures quickly made their way around the world—pictures of an aircraft lying upside down in the snow just beyond runway 23 at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport.
