    Waiting and Living by Faith

    Waiting and Living by Faith

    It’s almost cliché to hear someone say you should “wait on the Lord.” But here in Habakkuk, we have a book that’s all about how to face evil times. And one of the main ways in which we’re able to handle evil times is what the Bible calls “waiting on the Lord.” 
    Habakkuk has started by voicing a great complaint, has heard God’s first response, and has called out to God again. In this passage, Habakkuk waits to hear God’s second answer. Habakkuk waits.
    There is a rich meaning to this, which we can see in this text. We are to wait on the Lord 1) patiently, 2) perspectively, 3) obediently, 4) God-centrically, and 5) joyfully.
    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 10, 2009. Series: Living by Faith in Troubled Times. Scripture: Habakkuk 2:1-4.

    Why Does God Do Nothing?

    Why Does God Do Nothing?

    It would be possible to go to church for many decades and never hear a sermon on Habakkuk. It’s a short book in the Old Testament, and we know almost nothing about Habakkuk himself. But this book is very contemporary in its application. 
    This little book talks about how to handle evil times, whether those are society-wide evil times or just your own personal evil times. 
    Let’s see why this is so relevant to us. Let’s notice 1) what Habakkuk saw, 2) what he did, 3) what he heard from God, and 4) what it meant. 
    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 3, 2009. Series: Living by Faith in Troubled Times. Scripture: Habakkuk 1:1-17.

    Mary’s Song

    Mary’s Song

    We’re looking at people who have had close encounters with God. Of course, Mary’s experience is often read at Christmastime.
    In Luke 1, Mary sings the very first Christmas carol. It’s the first Christmas song, and I’d say it’s the best. 
    Let’s look at 1) what leads her to sing, 2) what she sings a little about, and 3) what she sings a lot about. 
    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 8, 1996. Series: Daring to Draw Near. Scripture: Luke 1:39-55.

    Hagar and the Son

    Hagar and the Son

    When people in the Bible have close encounters with God, in almost every situation they say, “I can’t believe I’m still alive,” and Hagar is one of them.
    In Genesis 16, we see the story of Hagar, the maidservant of Sarah. Sarah’s and Hagar’s experiences overlap. We’re told Sarah mistreats Hagar, and it’s so bad that Hagar, a pregnant woman, flees out into the desert. We have here a story that will tell you the gospel. This is the gospel according to Hagar.
    We’ll look at 1) how we can understand the narrative, and 2) a few important principles we can draw from here.
    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 1, 1996. Series: Daring to Draw Near. Scripture: Genesis 16:1-16.

    Isaiah and the Altar

    Isaiah and the Altar

    We’re looking at historic accounts of people who had direct encounters with the living God. Isaiah 6 is a seminal passage: all of biblical religion is in here. It tells us so much about what it means to be a Christian and what it means to really meet God.
    In this passage, Isaiah’s just going to the temple like he’s gone to the temple hundreds of times before. It’s the Sabbath day. He walks into the temple, and the very last person in the whole world he expects to actually see is God.
    This passage tells us four characteristics of the Christian experience: 1) the reality, 2) the diversity, 3) the beauty, and 4) the festivity.
    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on November 24, 1996. Series: Daring to Draw Near. Scripture: Isaiah 6:1-8.

Great Daily Bread

The messages are often used as my “daily bread” (The Gospel of Matthew 6:11) from God’s written word. But God’s Living Word, Jesus, and The Lord’s Holy Spirit then turns each message into a nourishing meal that provides me strength for the day.

Tim Keller’s learned trade of skillfully teaching God’s Word is a beautiful model of dissecting the depth contained in written history of The Lord’s powerful presence in mankind’s lives. The Bible is a collage of testimonies of God’s intimate relationship with creation.

The very God and Savior pastor Tim taught us of is the very God and Savior that rescued Tim. And the very gifts pastor Tim shared with us are a reflection of the God and Savior working in the life of a willing vessel. Hence, our sorrow has no resting place, for now pastor Tim dwells with the very radiant God and Savior we often marveled of after receiving our daily bread, or manna from heaven, from the Word of God that Tim Keller was known to teach us about. What a rich reward. Before Tim only saw in part, but now he sees fully (1 Corinthians 13:9-12 paraphrased).

The legend continues!!!

Pastor Tim was my pastor. I couldn’t make it to church on Sunday so I got into pastor Kellers teaching and have learned so so much. As a veteran I was able to fight ptsd with the power of Christ through dr kellers teaching! Right on brother may you be dancing with the savior as we speak ! Holy is the Lord God almighty!
