Studying the Bible with Tim Keller

Tim Keller is the pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, New York and the author of several books including, The Reason for God: Belief in the Age of Skepticism, The Prodigal God, and Counterfeit Gods.

Here is a list of 5 questions that he asks as he reads the Bible daily that I found extremely helpful:

  1. How can I praise Him?
  2. How can I confess my sins on the basis of this text?
  3. If this is really true, what wrong behavior, what harmful emotions or false attitudes result in me when I forget this? Every problem is because you have forgotten something. What problems are you facing?
  4. What should I be aspiring to, on the basis of this text?
  5. Why are you telling me this today? 

Also, here is a video from Tim Keller explaining what the Bible is basically about. Enjoy:
