Tim Keller: Right or Wrong?

New York church planter and author Tim Keller has been the focus of recent controversy. James Wood in First Things, an admirer, suggests Keller's brand of "winsome" Christianity appealing to urban elites is past its shelf life. David French responded with a defense of Keller's so-called "third way" that rejects Christian fidelity to partisan tribes. Keller is one of America's most influential Protestant voices. He is ordained in the conservative Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and founded Redeemer Church in Manhattan in 1989. That church has been very successful and helped create a new, high-brow evangelical subculture in New York City. Keller's example and writing inspired other urban church plants, many associated with the PCA.
