2020-4-6  Redeemer Church. Our church is a more than just a place to go or an event to attend; we are a community of people who have been changed by the love of God and want to change our community in response. It’s our desire to make known the good news of God’s love within our own congregation as well as outside the walls in our community.

History[edit]

The auditorium of the W83 ministry center

Redeemer draws around 5,000 attenders to its services each Sunday at venues on the Upper West Side, Upper East Side and Downtown. According to the church's 2014 annual report, the current total membership is 1,760.[3] In a 2006 survey of 2,000 American Protestant church leaders, Redeemer was named the #16 most influential church in America.[4] Redeemer has attracted members of the public such as young professionals, doctors, bankers, lawyers, artists, actors, musicians, and designers, many of whom are in their 20s and 30s.[5]

In January 1998, a New York Times article about the church discussed its conservative stance, in that it condemned homosexuality and did not allow women to be ministers. In the article, current and former members of the congregation described the Redeemer church as intolerant, and 'being full of fundamentalists and zealous, newly converted Christians pushing hard-line views'.[6] In response to the article, Tim and Kathy Keller wrote to The New York Times and claimed that the church was neither 'hardline' nor 'fundamentalist.'[7]

Through its church planting center, Redeemer has helped start over 100 smaller churches in the New York metropolitan area. With respect to planting and starting new churches in urban areas, The New York Times reported that 'pastors from around the world are beginning to come in a steady stream to New York City to glean what they can from Dr. Keller and Redeemer.'[8] In 2012, the church bought a parking garage at 150 West 83rd Street on the Upper West Side for conversion to a church building of its own.[9] The church has an office at 1166 Avenue of the Americas.
