| | | Favorite Non Reformed Theologian Just wanted to know if anyone here has a favorite teacher/preacher they like to hear sometimes who may not be Reformed in their theology.
I got to the point that all I ever listen to is Reformed sermons from Sermon Audio or Renewing your Mind and any where else I can find them. I find it difficult to listen to my former favorites any more but I still like to listen to Irvin Lutzer at times. My one time favorite preacher was E.V. Hill. John Ankerberg was another I liked even though he was mostly a teacher. I feel like I have grown some since becoming Reformed in my theology I find it hard listening to things I sometimes feel I have out grown. Is that being too prideful? I am just learning like everyone else (at a some what slower pace of course ) and want to grow in my understanding of the things of the Lord.
Any way that was just a thought I had. I also liked reading books by (dare I say it?) Dave Hunt. See I have come a long way. |

but lutzer is good friends w/ RC SProul and MacArthur. And Ankerberg is a calvinist. He was a fighter w/ the reformed alliance (nickname i made up for: MacArthur, Sproul, Kennedy) and provided the forum for debate over ECT.

Chuck Swindoll. I enjoy his stories and the lilt of his voice. He seems like he's a real nice guy.

On my local FM Christian Station they have Swindoll on at 8:00 followed by Stanley and I usually listen to both of them.

Stanley's voice grates against my ear drums. I can't listen to him for more than 15 seconds.

Lutzer is baptistic and dispensationalist, so he certainly is not Reformed. But he does embrace the doctrines of grace.
Probably my favorite non reformed theologian right now is Russell Moore.

Benny Hinn
Just Kidding!
Aren't the words "non-reformed" and "theologian" mutually exclusive?

The late S. Lewis Johnson was a Calvinistic dispensationalist. One can listen to him with great profit without adopting his whole system.

I like Chuck Swindoll's preaching as well. He usually has really good insight into the text as well as a voice that this junior preacher covets!

And he's definitely one of my favorites too.

I use to listen to J. Vernon McGee every evening while doing the dishes. I enjoyed listening to his southern drawl. The man was a mess theologically but he sure wanted people to know Christ. Then after he was done Lester Roloff's Family Altar would come on. It was entertaining radio.
I would ride the McGee Bible Gus to the Family Altar. Those were the days. Back in the 80's. I haven't listened to much television or radio preachers since. I use to watch D. James Kennedy on Sundays. But that has subsided these last few years.
