Pastor

Southern Baptist Convention pastor Mike Stone received a surprising endorsement for his presidential bid earlier this week.

The Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination is now ordaining women and allowing them to use the title of “pastor.”

An Arkansas pastor and his congregation are grieving the deaths of his two daughters, who were killed recently by a train.

On Sunday, the senior pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church in Nashville, Tennessee, delivered his first sermon since his 9-year-old daughter was killed in a mass school shooting in March.

An Indiana pastor is challenging ministers across the nation to sign a pledge to combat wokeness.

UK evangelical leader Mike Pilavachi has been formally suspended by the trustees of Soul Survivor Watford.

Last Friday, May 19, pastor, theologian, and author Tim Keller passed away. The longtime pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan and author of books such as The Reason for God was known for his thoughtful sermons, calm demeanor, and a ministry that extended beyond his own denomination and even his fellow Christians to the wider world of elite society. 

It’s rare, especially today, for someone to be called “a giant” by both a top theologian and a New York Times columnist. Rarer still will such a prominent figure be regularly described as unassuming, living out the exhortation of Rudyard Kipling to be someone who can “walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch.” It’s notable that even his critics, which he certainly had, have refrained from doubting his self-effacing grace and kindness for others. 

Like many who mourned pastor Tim Keller's passing, I never met him in person. Also, like many others, he served as a mentor from afar. I could talk for days about the ministry insights I learned from him, but those are not the most important. Through his sermons, books, articles, and interviews, I gleaned an approach to following Jesus and engaging the people around me with the Gospel.

While this list could be much longer, these are the three most important lessons about following Jesus from Dr. Tim Keller.

Author and pastor John Piper says his final email exchange with the late Tim Keller involved a hope-filled message from Luke 10 that also had inspired 20th-century minister Martyn Lloyd-Jones.
