Defenders of the Faith S3, E5: Tim Keller – The Urban Communicator of Grace

In the bustling, skeptical heart of New York City, Tim Keller built a church on the bedrock of reasoned faith and radical grace. This episode explores the life and transformative impact of a pastor and apologist who masterfully engaged the toughest questions of modern urban intellectuals. Discover how Keller exposed the "idols" of our age, tackled the problem of suffering, and presented the compelling rationality of the Gospel to a generation hungry for meaning. His empathetic approach continues to be a blueprint for making Christianity credible and beautiful in a secular world.
