In fact, Redeemer did not want the article done but the journalist was going to do it whether or not Redeemer helped him to write it. And what better way to make sure there are less errors in reporting than to participate? So there it is in the Times. Hopefully it does not have an harmful repercussions. Redeemer is happy to fly under the radar of the majority." and to head off any negative criticism about the article, Tim’s son John has commented on the article’s publication (taken from here)

It was within the last ten years I think and the article was written by Gustav Niebuhr, who was a religion reporter for the Times. He is now a professor of religion and media in the Department of Religion at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. I was extremely surprised then, and am still surprised now. But then, "if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere." My brother attended Redeemer while he lived in New York, and I know a few others who have as well.
