I see Sam Kinison didn’t mke it.
RE: Alistair Begg, and James MacDonald
Maybe the author can’t stand Scottish accents... :)
I see Sam Kinison didn’t mke it.
but not hidden from the influencers in media, the arts, and the ‘higher’ culture of America from New York City”
I have never heard of Tim Keller...but I sure like that description. I’ll need to look into him....
2Cor 12:10-12
Just food for thought & prayer...
The Catholics are right to question the lack of Catholic "preachers", but wrong to think they have any.
I was reared in a Catholic family until I received Jesus at the age of 33 (PLENTY of meat for a meal in THAT one .. ) and when I attended my first Sunday morning Sunday school then church service back in 1981, I was floored to hear a man speak the way Pastor Arrowood spoke.
I now know it to be preaching, but back then, totally unchurched and neophitical (if that ain't a word .. it SHOULD be), I was amazed how someone could speak, stay on subject, laugh, cry, chastise and I guess a few more ... just from one or two verses from the Bible.
I never heard that in a Catholic church from a priest.
Just to stir the pot a bit ... Lester Rolloff
Fr. John Corapi before he fell.
***Martin Luther King***
**Had he preached in the last 25 years per the article, he undoubtedly would have been. **
But, but where is Reverend Jesse? Where is Reverend Al? Reverend Wright! Oh wait! They want PREACHERS, not hate mongers!
Beat me to it.
Andy Stanley hosted Michele Obama in his church a while ago. My nephew attends that church and told us about it. I have no respect for him or his church. I guess it’s a very contemporary, airy-fairy place.
Charles Stanley is an amazing preacher. I’m surprised Vernon McGee is not listed. Like Adrian Rogers, McGee has passed on, but his sermons are still being heard every day.
Although calling himself an “apologist” rather than a “preacher”, Ravi Zacharias is the guy I appreciate hearing more than anyone else. Listening to “Let My People Think” really does make you think.
What? Smiley didn’t make the list? Is this the most influential “good” or just influential?
Apostles saw Jesus face to face after Jesus chose 12 from all his disciples.
There is no Apostolic succession in scripture ... none.
Wonder if the DU trolls are foaming at the mouth and spilling their bile yet.
You missed the greatest of all time.
Fulton Sheen
I go to NorthPoint where Andy preaches. They are very, very different styles and target audiences.
Hagee’s a kook. he’s just a few half-notches above that charlatan Benny Hinn.
Maybe that’s why.

He is the Pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church, right in the Heart of New York City. That his ministry can attract thousands of people every Sunday in America’s Center of Mammon, speaks volumes about his ability to connect and share the gospel.
You might want to read his book. A modern day classic in my humble opinion:
THE REASON FOR GOD: BELIEF IN AN AGE OF SKEPTICISM
I don’t know all that much about Andy.
I was basing my idea of his church on the fact that I know a guy who is very liberal tho he was raised by good solid Southern Baptists.
He is or was involved in several leftist organizations such as a college lesbian group. His girlfriend broke up with him because he was just too liberal for her.
I know he praises Andy which bothers me.
Possibly corrrrect in the case of Begg. MacDonald does’t seem to have one, though.
Don’t let the belligerant papist and his venomous bile get you down.
Hagee is an awesome preacher. He preaches with clarity and authority.
Hagee is definitely no kook. Nevertheless, as St. Paul reminded us, to *some*, laying out God’s Word forthrightly is offensive.
