A Better Resurrection (Easter)

TIM KELLER
About this episode

The book of Hebrews is written to people who are so beaten down with troubles that they’re ready to give up. 

The writer is trying to give the readers what they need to handle the brutal realities of life in this world. In Hebrews 11, he gives us something that helps us handle anything. 

If you have it, you can handle absolutely anything life throws at you: 1) what is it? and 2) how do we get it?

This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 27, 2005. Series: Christ: Our Treasury (The Book of Hebrews). Scripture: Hebrews 11:32-40.
