It is commonly thought in secular society that the Bible is one of the greatest hindrances to doing justice. Isn't it full of regressive views? Didn't it condone slavery?

In Generous Justice, Keller explores a life of justice empowered by an experience of grace: a generous, gracious justice.

In this dynamic new audiobook, New York pastor and best-selling author Tim Keller explores the biblical understanding of hope. A profound grasp of what we are hopeful for, he argues, can reenergise and transform us personally; can help us face death; can influence our community practices with regard to sex, money and power; and can even be applied globally to renew our culture.

The resurrection of Jesus is at the heart of the Christian faith, bringing God's power - which will some day heal and renew the world - into our lives now. That power is here only partially, but substantially; and this gives Christians a realistic, but irrepressible, hope. It is a hope for change in our lives and in our society; a hope that changes Christians in every way, shaping every aspect of our lives.

Keller: When we hold Jesus as our treasure, we can break the power of money. "What Do You Need to Be Happy?" by Francis Chan: When we give everything to Christ, we discover the secret of being content.

It's not enough to plant individual churches in isolation from each other. The spiritual need and opportunity of our cities is too big for any one church to meet alone. Pastors Neil Powell and John James contend that to truly transform a city, the gospel compels us to create localized, collaborative church planting movements. They share lessons learned and principles discovered from their experiences leading a successful citywide movement. The more willing we are to collaborate across denominations and networks, the more effectively we will reach our communities for Jesus.

Esperança em tempos de medo analisa o sentido transformador da ressurreição de Jesus. A Páscoa lembra ao mundo que Jesus ressuscitou fisicamente dos mortos, e que podemos nascer de novo e ressuscitar espiritualmente. Isto porque a ressurreição de Cristo traz agora, para a nossa vida, o poder futuro de Deus que um dia haverá de curar e renovar o mundo inteiro. A esperança do cristão é real e inabalável. Não se trata de uma expectativa ingênua e utópica do paraíso hoje, mas de uma esperança para a vida e a sociedade da qual podemos participar na plenitude do paraíso por vir.

Ist der Beruf nur "Job" zum Broterwerb, in dem man sich anständig verhalten und, sofern Christ, möglichst Zeugnis von seinem Glauben ablegen sollte?

Tim Keller wendet in seiner unnachahmlichen Art biblische Weisheit auf unser Leben an und gibt inspirierende Antworten auf die zentralen Fragen.

Most people, even those who are nonreligious, are familiar with the book of Jonah: a rebellious prophet defies God and is swallowed by a whale. Less familiar to most people is the second half of this biblical story - what happens after Jonah is released from the belly of the fish. Yet it is in this second half of the story that one of the most powerful and important lessons of the Bible is hidden.

The New Testament begins not with a dramatic narrative or lofty poetry but with a genealogy. Provocatively, Matthew's Gospel includes women in Jesus' family line - something that wasn't customary in an ancient culture, where women were largely powerless and uninfluential.
