Remembering John MacArthur
Today, we, along with so many others, mourn the passing of John MacArthur. A beloved husband, father, pastor, theologian, author and founder of Grace for You, MacArthur lived a life full of ministry. Along with our bereavement, we can also rejoice that after almost 90 years of ministry, he is forever more with his Savior in Glory! We are thankful for our collaboration with MacArthur and his confidence in us to publish two of his books this year, The Church and Church Membership and The Ordinary Church.
Below are a few testimonies to MacArthur’s Kingdom impact.
“John MacArthur has proven himself to be a sure guide through Scripture and a faithful expositor of God’s Word.” — R. Albert Mohler, JR., President, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
“With the possible exception of Dr. Tim LaHaye, no other Bible commentator has informed my own writing as much as that of John MacArthur. I find myself turning to him again and again.” — Jerry B. Jenkins, author of The Left Behind series
“For decades John MacArthur has exemplified expository preaching, putting on full display the Word of God for the people of God.” — Matthew Barrett, Tutor of Systematic Theology and Church History, Oak Hill Theological College
John MacArthur was the chancellor of The Master’s University and Seminary, an author, conference speaker and pastor-teacher at Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California. John was also a chairman and featured teacher of Grace to You, a nonprofit radio and television program. He is survived by his wife, Patricia, four married children, and fifteen grandchildren.
