Timothy Keller: His Spiritual and Intellectual Formation

Millions of people have read books and listened to sermons by Timothy Keller. But which people and events shaped his own thinking and spiritual growth? With unrestricted access to Keller's personal notes and sermons, as well as exclusive interviews with family and lifelong friends, Collin Hansen provides an unprecedented insight into one of the most influential church leaders of the 21st century.

Through this biography, you will learn what he read, what he learned, and what he saw throughout his life. The story of Timothy Keller is a story of spiritual and intellectual influences, from the woman who taught him to read the Bible to the professor who taught him to preach Jesus; from every text to the philosopher who taught him to see beneath the surface of society.

For the first time, Hansen introduces the reader to Keller's early years: the home where he learned to tell stories from the trees, the church where he learned to care for souls, and the city that elevated him to the international fame he never wanted.
