John MacDaddy


When I was a child, I would listen to Christian radio. There were several things that I would say impacted me for ministry. One of them is that I would listen to Grace to You radio program hosted by John MacArthur. He became a hero to me! I appreciated the fact that he would just stick to the Bible. I never really had a mentor that invested in me personally, but I remember when I was a child and in the evening I would listen to Grace To You. I thought when I grow up, I want to do what he does. He preaches the Bible.

That is what I now do. I preach the Bible. I love studying and preaching. This call was engendered by Jesus Christ, and by the Power of the Spirit, it was cultivated by the preaching of John MacArthur. He has become known to me as John MacDaddy. In many ways though I have never met him, he has fathered me in my desire to preach the Bible. So, John MacDaddy, "Thank you for your faithfulness to the text!" Amen?

I prefer to call him Johnny Mac, but either one works! He is the man!
