Tim Keller, pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, spoke last summer at The Gospel Coalition Women's Conference (Orlando) on the Old Testament book of Nehemiah, chapters 3 & 4. I watched the video and found perceptive his short treatment of divine sovereignty and human responsibility. He refers briefly to four sections of Scripture: Nehemiah 4:9 ("We prayed to our God and posted a guard"); Isaiah 38; Acts 27; and Acts 2.
Keller: "No matter how bad things get, on the one hand God is completely in charge and on the other, what you do matters..."
You can hear Keller's exposition on divine sovereignty and human responsibility below at the 43:35 to 50:55 mark:
Tim Keller mentions the following books:
