General Inquiries

• How many resources are in this library?
  • This content archive contains over 150 sermons, articles, videos and other pieces of content produced at Redeemer or through our partners and friends. We will be adding to this archive regularly.
• Where do these resources come from?
  • Most of these resources are drawn from twenty years of teaching and ministry by Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, as well as our global network of churches. We hope to expand the number of translations and commissioned pieces in the future.
• How do I find resources?
  • There are three main ways of navigating this Resource library.
    • The first is to browse the list of categories listed to the right. Resources are classified by Topic, Content Type (ie sermon vs. article), and by Language other than English. Items may appear in more than one category or subcategory.
    • The second way is to click on the highlighted red tags within each item. If there are other items with the same tag, all items will appear. See for example all items listing
    • #C. S. Lewis
    • The third way is to simply use the Search box in the top right corner of the website. For example, if you search for "church planting," you will find a broad array of news items, blogs, and resource items (labeled accordingly) which contain those words.
• How do I download or access resources?
  • The vast majority of our Resources can be downloaded directly from this website. All you need to do is Register or Login and you will be able to download items without restriction.
  • Some Resources are sold or fulfilled from other sources, in which case we simply link to where you can find them.
• Which resources are free vs. paid?
  • Generally speaking, Books, Manuals, Bible Studies and DVD Study Guides are not free. They are published by our publishing partners and sold in stores or online. We have tried to provide links to the publisher or seller where possible.
  • Most of the other resources on this website (Sermons, Articles, Multimedia) are produced by our own staff and are completely free.
• Can I interview or contact a pastor or person on staff at Redeemer City to City for more information?
  • Due to the nature of our ministry, we regret that our staff cannot accommodate requests for interviews, advice, personal meetings etc. We are working hard to expand our Regional Networks and Published Resources to serve as many people as possible. Please explore the wealth of materials on our website and stay tuned for more publications underway.

Translations

We are currently in the process of gathering and publishing translations of key resources in five languages. Please contact us if you are interested in sponsoring a project, or offering your services as a translator or proofreader (native speakers only, please) via our Contact Form.

You can find a current list of translated books and articles by Language in the Browse list to the right.

• • Can I translate a Redeemer book, study, sermon, recording, article or paper into another language to be used for ministry purposes?
  • If you are not a publisher, but would like to use one of our pieces for ministry purposes, you are free to translate it yourself as long as you are using it in your local ministry circle and not publicly distributing or selling your translation.
  • Please also send us a copy of your translation so that we can share it with others. You may email it to us at info@redeemercitytocity.com.
• • I am a professional translator or editor. Can I offer my services?
  • Our goal is to make hundreds of pages of resources available for free in five key languages: Spanish, Portuguese, French, Chinese and Korean. Our material can incorporate academic or theological language, so background in these areas is helpful.
  • We require all translations to be done by a native speaker and checked by a qualified proofreader. The translated work may be used within your local ministry, but Redeemer retains all rights of wider distribution in print or online.
