Summary
Pastor Tim Keller met his Savior on Friday, May 19, 2023, at the age of seventy-two after a lengthy battle with pancreatic cancer.

But there is another way we can benefit from Dr. Keller’s ministry, one that was brought into sharp relief by the passing on the same day of another cultural icon.
