'When I started in ministry, I committed myself to expository
preaching, just explaining the Bible, because I knew that there
was nothing I could say that was anywhere near as important
as what God had to say. The real goal of ministry has always
been to keep my own opinions out of it as much as possible. I
never want to be guilty of giving people the illusion that they have heard from God when in fact they have only heard from
me. When I step into the pulpit, the expectation is that I'm a
messenger of God. I speak on His behalf; not my own.'
—Dr Joun MacArtuur
