Princeton Seminary cancels award to Tim Keller, but not his lecture

It all began with a 19th-century Dutch theologian. Each year the Abraham Kuyper Center for Public Theology at Princeton Theological Seminary—named for the neo-Calvinist thinker and church leader who also served as prime minister of the Netherlands—awards a Prize for Excel­lence in Reformed Theology and Public Life. This year, the center planned to honor Timothy Kel­ler, the founding pastor of Redeemer Pres­byterian Church in Manhattan, New York, who leads a global urban church planting network.
