What to expect

Ever wondered why some messages about faith feel flat, while others strike straight to the heart?



If you want your sermons to do more than inform - if you want them to transform - then this is the preaching guide you've been waiting for.

Pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller invites readers into the art of sharing the timeless truths of Scripture in a world flooded with doubt, distraction and digital noise. But this isn't just a book for pastors - it's for anyone who wants to understand how the Christian story speaks to both the mind and the soul in our modern age.



With clarity and compassion, Timothy Keller delivers a masterclass in how to communicate the gospel, through three key movements:

What to Say - Learn how every part of the Bible points to Jesus - and why that matters for how we understand and share the gospel.

Who You're Talking To - Understand today's culture so you can speak to both skeptics and believers with clarity, honesty, and heart.

How to Deliver It - Preaching isn't just skill; it's spiritual. Keller shows how prayer, humility, and the Holy Spirit make the message come alive.



Whether you speak from a pulpit, a classroom, or across the dinner table, this book will deepen your appreciation for the message of the gospel - and help you share it in a way that connects.





'If you find yourself tasked with the regular communication of biblical truth in any respect (teaching, traditional preaching, writing, blogging, counselling, mentoring), read this. Clear, direct, effective, moving. Really just so, so good.' Goodreads reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


'Tim Keller provides great wisdom and practical insight into the art and craft of preaching and how to engage it with culture.' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



'A fantastic book for anyone looking to engage with the 'modern mind' in a constructive and effective way. [Keller] maintains that all preaching must aim to say "isn't Christ great" - in a day when preaching seems to focus on practice and moral living, this is refreshing to read.' Goodreads reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It is an unexpected delight to read a book on preaching which makes you want to preach. Tim Keller has given us such a book...Here is an extremely read- able book founded on sound scholarship...buy it. This is the most practical and inspirational book on preaching that I have read for years!
The Methodist Recorder
Keller's book has an interesting blend of theological analysis and practical advise, and is a reminder of the need for theology to have deep roots in the practical working out of the Christian faith...Keller's book could be read with profit by any Christian.
The Church Times
There is much to stimulate heart and mind in this latest offering from Tim Keller.
Evangelical Times
In Preaching, Keller has made an invaluable contribution to the homiletic task. I would recommend that this book be placed in the hand of the preaching veteran and novice, and should be found in the homiletic section of all theological colleges.
Christianity Magazine
Shrewd insight into the modern mind...He is interesting and engaging on the place of rhetoric in the pulpit.
