You Can Teach an Old Dog New Tricks, By Bob Highsmith (New York, NY)

Redeemer has provided me with deeply insightful and convicting preaching of the Word and its power for understanding who God is, who we were made to be and are not, and how we are to live the lives we were created to live.  I particularly value the discovery and acceptance it has encouraged in me of the depth of my sinfulness and the presence of the Holy Spirit within me to counter it; the deep hope it has given me for my personal redemption and the redemption of God’s creation in our communities, NYC and the world; and the encouragement to forgive as I have been forgiven and to serve in gratitude for all that has been given to me.

I particularly value the discovery and acceptance it has encouraged in me of the depth of my sinfulness and the presence of the Holy Spirit within me to counter it…

Redeemer has introduced me to a rich literature that has broadened and deepened my understanding of Christianity and made coherent the bits and pieces of theology I brought to Redeemer.

Redeemer provides world-class music that has deepened my appreciation of how God uses faithful musicians to bring beauty into the world and enables us to worship him more committedly.

Redeemer has provided numerous communities that hold me accountable for what I profess, for walking the talk of the gospel.
