"And do you now begin to see why Christianity has always said that the devil is a fallen angel? That is not a mere story for the children. It is a real recognition of the fact that evil is a parasite, not an original thing. The powers which enable evil to carry on are powers given it by goodness."

- C.S. Lewis

Tim Keller is My Homeboy

Well, I wish.

I didn't start listening to his messages until about two months ago, but I have no problem saying that you should be listening to them too. :-)

Okay, if you're the sort of person who listens to sermon podcasts, you should add Keller to your library.

Allow me to recommend Gospel-Centered Ministry, which I've plugged at Gospel-Driven Church before but must plug again, because I'm listening to it again today and realizing again just how flippin' awesome it is.

Heck, even if you don't want to listen to the whole thing, listen to his hilarious opening in the first 55 seconds. Just do that. Good stuff.

This is great Jared. Thanks for sharing it.

I like Keller, too. He's got his finger on the pulse of a lot of the issues the Church in America has ignored or let rot. Good for him.

I just wish he wouldn't bash agrarianism so hard. He always uses the example of Jonah going to the great city of Nineveh to support his view that we should all move to the city. While I admit that Jonah went to the city, I wish that Tim would admit that Jonah also left the city when he was done with his short-term mission trip! ;-)

Hey Rod - I am going to check him out.
Can you give me more "favorites".
I'm starting to get into podcasting sermons...

Tim Keller, Mark Driscoll, John Piper

Those are about the only three preachers I listen to (besides myself :-), and I enjoy them and profit from them quite a bit.
