WHO WILL REPLACE JOHN MACARTHUR ? - Contra Thoughts Ep. 118
Channel: Richard T Henry
Date: 13/01/2023

John MacArthur is by far one of the most influential and titanic pastors of the late 20th and into the 21st century. His resume is massive and ministry experience is vast. Starting a seminary, moving a small baptist college from small struggling college into a University, to training men and women for all types of ministry. 

He has preached through all the New Testament and many books from the Old. He has commentaries on all the bible and his own study bible notes. 

The shoes that MacArthur has made are too large for any one man to fill. That said, someone will have to fill the pulpit. But who?
