If you need to see changes in your life, what is the process by which change really happens? And how does that change flow from belief in Jesus?
The gospel is unique to all the religions of the world in that it says salvation is not achieved, but is received. So if you understand the gospel, and that salvation has nothing to do with how you live, why would you change? In Romans, Paul answers that, and in the process, he shows how faith in Christ concretely leads to changes.
In Romans 6, Paul gives us three keys to real, profound life change: 1) you have to recognize the shape of your spiritual slavery, 2) you have to realize the scope of your cosmic unity with Jesus, and 3) you have to live daily out of your new identity.

Money and the Logic of Grace
How should Christians view their money and their possessions?
We’re looking at the Gospel of Luke, because Luke has much to say on this subject. How does God want us to think about money in general? What should our attitude be toward it? How should we relate to giving and spending?
In Luke 14, we see two things: 1) Jesus Christ lays out a standard for sacrificial giving that’s so astonishing it will seem unreasonable, and 2) Jesus actually shows how reasonable this kind of giving is.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on June 20, 2010. Series: Money and Possessions – In the Teaching of St. Luke. Scripture: Luke 14:7-24.

The Cosmic Spirit
As we end our series on the Holy Spirit, we come to maybe the most astonishing thing the Holy Spirit does for us.
We’ve looked at a number of well-known things the Holy Spirit does in us and for us. He calls us and enables us to believe. He regenerates us, creates Christ-like character in us, unites us inside the church, and empowers us with his gifts so we can serve people around us. But now we look at a passage that tells us about the ultimate, the final thing the Holy Spirit does for us.
Let’s notice from the text 1) what the Spirit will do for us in the future, 2) what the Spirit, therefore, can do for us in the present, and 3) how we can let the Spirit do that in our lives.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 12, 2010. Series: The Holy Spirit. Scripture: Romans 8:17-25.

The Gifts of the Spirit
I’ve seen the pendulum in the church swing to extreme places over spiritual gifts—sometimes giving obsessive focus to them, and sometimes ignoring them.
There’s nothing more practical for helping us avoid extremes and understand what a Christian church should actually look like than to embrace what the Bible gives us here, a theology of spiritual gifts.
Let’s ask three questions of this text: 1) what are spiritual gifts, 2) what are the practical implications for church life, and 3) how can we rightly use spiritual gifts?
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on August 29, 2010. Series: The Holy Spirit. Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-13.

Thanksgiving Message from Kathy Keller
Each year when we get to Thanksgiving, we pause to recognize all the ways God has been so gracious in his provision — both for our basic physical needs, and for the ways he provides for us spiritually to give us joy, hope and renewal through his son Jesus Christ.
