Timothy Keller was born and raised in Pennsylvania and
educated at Bucknell University, Gordon-Conwell Theological
Seminary, and Westminster Theological Seminary. His first pastorate
was in Hopewell, Virginia. In 1989 he started Redeemer Presbyterian
Church in New York City with his wife, Kathy, and their three sons.
Today, Redeemer has nearly six thousand regular Sunday attendees
and has helped to start more than three hundred new churches around
the world. He is the author of The Songs of
Jesus, Prayer, Encounters with Jesus, Walking with
God Through Pain and Suffering, and The Meaning of
Marriage, among others, including the perennial
bestsellers The Reason for God and The Prodigal
God.
Katherine Leary Alsdorf worked twenty-five years in the
high-tech industry as an economic analyst and in various executive
leadership positions. After her CEO roles at One Touch Systems and
Pensare, Redeemer Presbyterian Church recruited Katherine to lead
the church’s efforts in marketplace ministry, now called the Center
for Faith & Work, which has grown to serve more than two thousand
people a year. Katherine has served on the boards of the
International Arts Movement, the Fellowship for the Performing
Arts, and the Theology of Work Project.
"Tim Keller's ministry in New York City is leading a generation of
seekers and skeptics toward belief in God. I thank God for him."
—Billy Graham
"This is the book I give to all my friends who are serious
spiritual seekers or skeptics." —Rick Warren, author of The
Purpose Driven Life, on The Reason for God
"Theologically rich and philosophically informed, yet accessible
and filled with practical wisdom. Drawing on decades of study and
ministry, Every Good Endeavor may soon become one of the most
important contemporary books on faith and work." —Comment
magazine
"Another masterpiece . . . Well-reasoned [and] comprehensive . . .
Every Good Endeavor deftly explains how we can relish and enjoy our
work while honoring God and serving others, all the while avoiding
the extremes of negativity on the one hand and idolatry on the
other." —The Gospel Coalition
"Most people sitting in the pews of our churches on a Sunday
morning spend more time in the workplace than anywhere else. Yet we
can too easily make following Christ a matter of personal devotions
and church activity. . . . This is great book on an important
area that is too often neglected." —Tim Chester
