Educators Forum: The Gospel Changes Ever...

TIM KELLER
About this episode

Some of you may know I was actually a teacher at graduate school seminary for five years. Then I said, “Get me back in the ministry,” where there is no grading papers and no one knows whether people are learning or not. But the gospel changes everything . . . even education.

We’re looking now at the what’s, why’s and how to’s of education reform from a Christian perspective. 

To consider a gospel-centered view of education reform, 1) I’ll share two thoughts from C.S. Lewis, and 2) I’ll be joined by a panel of educators for a question-and-answer time.

This talk and Q&A was given by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on November 5, 2004. Series: Redeemer InterArts Fellowship.
