Critics Review
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
‘In this apologia for Christian faith, Keller mines material from literary classics, philosophy, anthropology and a multitude of other disciplines to make an intellectually compelling case for God. Written for sceptics 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.’ for THE REASON FOR GOD - Publishers WeeklyTim 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 GrahamThis is a great book. All pastors and thinking Christians should read this book. - Christianity MagazineAbout The Author
