W. Phillip Keller

W. Phillip Keller (1920-1997) spent his life traveling the globe, marveling at God’s creation, and writing over thirty-five books on Christian subjects, the most famous of which is A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23. Born in Kenya to missionary parents, Keller spent the early years of his childhood heartily enjoying what he calls "the rather rough, tough frontier world of East Africa." Then, at the age of 8, he was abruptly sent away to a strict, religious boarding school—250 miles away from his family.When his father died, Phillip (still a teenager) was devastated. As he grew older, he withdrew far into himself.

As an adult, he left Africa and wandered far from the God his father and mother had served. The inspiring, joyful story of how he returned is woven into his many beloved autobiographical and devotional books.

A Canadian citizen, Phillip settled in British Columbia with his wife, Ursula, where they stayed until Phillip's death in 1997.
