  • Adoration: “Hallowed Be Thy Name”

    Adoration: “Hallowed Be Thy Name”
    Feb 21 2025

    What does it mean to hallow? It’s a word virtually never used anymore in everyday English, but we don’t quite have an equivalent.

    To hallow something means to treat it as sacred and ultimate. It means to make something your ultimate concern, to make it the most important thing, to make it the most crucial thing, to make it the supreme beauty, the supreme aim of your life. Jesus says this comes first, and I want to show you that praise and adoration is really what life is about.

    Matthew 6 teaches us 1) the necessity of praise, 2) the primacy of praise, and 3) the anatomy of praise.

    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 30, 1995. Series: The Lord’s Prayer 1995. Scripture: Matthew 6:6-15.

  • Basis of Prayer: “Our Father”

    Basis of Prayer: “Our Father”
    Feb 19 2025

    Jesus doesn’t just point the way to God—rather, he is the way to God because he’s risen. And that means that for Christians, prayer is a unique, radically different process than it is for other religions and philosophies.

    Prayer is a rather universal thing, and there are many ways to pray. But Jesus says there are really two different bases on which you can approach God. He’s not talking about whether to ask; he’s talking about how to ask, about why you think you’re being heard. And he says there are two utterly different bases on which you can go to God.

    Looking at Matthew 6, let’s try to 1) understand the true basis of prayer, and 2) employ the true basis.

    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 23, 1995. Series: The Lord’s Prayer 1995. Scripture: Matthew 6:6-15.

  • Word: Teach Us To Pray

    Word: Teach Us To Pray
    Feb 17 2025

    The Psalms is the divinely inspired prayer book, but when you open this prayer book, the first page is not a prayer. It’s a meditation on meditation.

    Meditation is not the same as studying the Bible. In studying the Bible you’re just learning information. Meditation takes what you’ve learned and does something with it. And according to the Psalms, meditation is actually the key to prayer.

    Psalm 1 tells us 1) the priority, 2) the promise, 3) the products, 4) the practice, and 5) the problem and solution of meditation.

    This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on November 23, 2014. Series: The Prayer of Prayers. Scripture: Psalm 1:1-6; 2:1-12.

Timeless and Timely

I listened to the entire teaching by Keller on this book of Jonah. It was for me just what I needed today. Keller doesn’t mince words and tells it like it is. I’m certain I’ll go back to these teachings.

if you're afraid you did it. listen to this.

Perfect narration from Tim Keller himself. Gets gets right down in depth understandings you may have never thought of before. Very worth the listen. For those who are worried they have done this sin don't be. If you're worried you've done it, that is evidence you did not do it because that is the holy spirit working in your life to convict you.

He Always Made Sense

His books and sermons are amazing. He has helped me to understand Christian Theology on a much deeper level. He was well-educated, intelligent, relatable, and not at all difficult to understand. His passing was a huge loss to this world, ut at least we still have his books and sermons.

What a Gift God Has Given Us!

I'm so grateful to God for all that He has done in the life of Tim Keller that equipped him to prepare these messages for us. I've been a follower of Christ for 34 years, have attended various churches, read many Christian authors and have listened to numerous pastors and teachers. Never have I heard teaching like Keller's. I feel like I'm getting a master's in theology just listening to the podcast. His teaching has clarified many things I've questioned, unlocked mysteries that I didn't know existed, linked Old and New testament together in ways I've never understood, and deepened my love for our amazing God and Saviour. I recommend this podcast to everyone I talk to. May God richly bless Tim with a greater knowledge of His love and purpose for his every day.

suffering is a blessing

Through faith, God will never leave us. suffering is actually a blessing from God in a sinful world. Through suffering, we learn even if we don't understand. I'm in my 70s, and through living day to day, I've learned by making wrong decisions, little things that happen, or a Devastating Event That makes us want to question God. we are learning through suffering. God allows this. Otherwise, we wouldn't learn important lessons of life, and when we keep our focus on God, it builds faith, love, and unity. I was a Church goer for the last 30+ years. Two years ago, my wife went to be with the Lord. We met in the 7th grade and married after graduating high school. Her short struggle with cancer brought us closer to Christ! My wifes pasting has left me with memories and a lot of extra time. I have given much this time to the Lord. I finally understand what it is to be a truly saved believer in Christ.
Thank you, Timothy, Kathy, and everyone who supports you for being part of my morning devotion to Christ!

Unabashedly honest and intimate

I have always heard that marriage is an analogy for our relationship with the Savior. But Tim makes it so clear here. I am divorced and can finally have peace about it. I love how Tim brings to light our intimacy with our Savior, who sees the ugliest parts of me and chooses me daily, like a spouse would. I can not wait for that reunion in heaven!

Mentor for 26 years

Since 1997 in South Africa the Keller sermon cassettes would arrive in the mail and feed our family a banquet of God’s word. This is our go to podcast. I loved Psalm 139 this morning with the blessing of practicing presence of Christ!
