Theology of the City

Over at the Nine Marks Blog, Greg Gilbert gives some responses to a book that he has read concerning the "theology of the city."

This seems to me to be something that planters in more urbanized areas ought to be considering and Tim Keller has really majored on this topic. You can go to his church's website (Redeemer Presbyterian in New York City) and go to the church planting section. From there you can order a church planting manual that he has crafted for planters in New York.

I purchased it before moving here and found it to be very helpful- more so than many church planting helps I've encountered over the years even though it focused on the city- and it only cost about $14.

Anyhow, check out Gilbert's take on what he's read so far (here) - it is a few good reminders to us all.
