“This short book is meant to lay out the essentials of the Christian message, the gospel.” So begins Timothy Keller’s new book The Prodigal God: Recovering the Heart of the Christian Faith. Keller targets both seekers who are unfamiliar with the gospel and longtime church members who may not feel the need for a primer on the gospel.

Taking his trademark intellectual approach to understanding Christianity, Keller uncovers the essential message of Jesus, locked inside his most familiar parable.

This book will challenge both the devout and the skeptics to see Christianity in a whole new way.
