Newsweek has a short piece on pastor Timothy Keller from Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan. Keller is a bit like the wise uncle and professor of the theologically driven, urban missional church planting movement. So many listen and learn from him though he seldom does interviews and is very infrequently "in the spotlight" so to speak. To be honest, I like him because he is not a self-promoter and keeps his head down and plugs ahead with the mission of Jesus. He is highly respected in many, many circles.
Here is the Newsweek deal - The Smart Shepherd (good title for a fun, spooky smart guy to listen to)

Our community group is reading "Ministry of Mercy" (the one with the horrible early 90's graphic). He does such a great job of bathing the entire book with scripture using such a graceful tone- all the while being very readable.
I have also benefited greatly from his bible study material on Galatians.

His upcoming book looks fantastic - I pre-ordered on Amazon.
