How Tim Keller Found Manhattan
CT writes about Tim Keller in their most recent issue. “Standing 6’4″, with a bald head, glasses, and a coat and tie, Keller, 58, does not look hip. Nor is his sermon funny, charming, or daring. He preaches from the first chapter of Genesis, on the doctrine of Creation.”
