Gospel in Life
with Tim Keller
Our Work and Our Character
Monday, June 16, 2025
The gospel affects how you do your work, how you do your job, and how you pursue your vocation. But how?
If we’re going to understand what Paul says in this passage, we need to look at 1) some background work and historical context, 2) practical principle number one, 3) practical principle number two, and 4) the power to carry them out.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 17, 2010. Series: The Gospel and the World. Ephesians 5:21, 6:5-9.
