Robert W. A. Letham, who was my former pastor so I may include him. AND, I'll bend the rules and say David T. King since he's only been "my preacher" for less than a year!

I'd mention Greg L. Bahnsen but he's not preaching new sermons and I've devoured his old ones!

I'm a blessed man!

David, as a gentle warning, I would advise you to cease promoting those who are attached to the movement that is known as the Federal Vision.

You're pretty new, so I'm curious if you read the rules before joining the Puritan Board. One said rule is:
Quote:
3. Federal Vision. The Puritan Board forbids the membership of "Federal Vision" proponents on this board. Every major NAPARC body has ruled the Federal Vision to be an un-Scriptural and un-Confessional doctrinal error that fundamentally re-casts doctines that are core to the Christian religion. Those who are proponents of this doctrine should refrain from registering and any members who embrace this doctrine should have the integrity to forfeit their membership privileges. Members who violate this rule will be suspended or banned.
So, if you, or anyone else on the board for that matter, believe that this group (FV) or its teachings, etc. are right, biblical, or orthodox, please consider taking the applicable action to which is alluded in the third sentence of the above rule. If you don't believe the FV to be orthodox, biblical, etc., then please refrain from promoting those who are a part thereof. Thanks.

Im sorry i know of their controversial doctrine and i was just going off of their ACCS Classical Schooling Seminars and their CPHC History Conferences. I am in line with the confessions and a member of the PCA so no offense was intended.
 
I've picked up three here recently that have been a real blessing to me. All three are on sermon audio.
Chris Hand (Baptist in the UK)
Paul Dowling (Congregationalist, N. Ireland)
Brad Baggett (Baptist, Houston TX.)

I listen to many already mentioned here. Thank God for ipod's and podcasts!

Doug, you are soooo out of it. Don't you know that Gene Scott is dead and that his wife (the former adult entertainer, Melissa Scott) is now holding forth in his place?

PASTOR MELISSA SCOTT is the Pastor and Teacher of the University Cathedral--home to the largest Protestant congregation in Downtown Los Angeles.

Employing a research-laden approach to the analysis of God's Word in the Old and New Testaments, she unfolds and presents her teaching in context with history and the sciences. A natural linguist with command of twenty languages, she digs deeply into her vast collection of ancient manuscripts to find and communicate the purest understanding of what the original inspired writers of the Bible had to say.

So, Doug, get with it. Quit citing dead white whackos with Stanford PhDs.

I read more books than listen to sermons, but if I had to choose from the past:

1. Ferrell Griswold
2. William R. Downing
3. Joe Morecraft III
4. Jim West (of Drinking with Calvin and Luther)
5. Samuel Rutherford (he visits me in visions)
 
As I just recently completed encoding 25 years of sermons from audio cassettes (and sliced, diced, and uploaded them to our church website), I have to ask, are there really other pastors out there?

<hijack>Amazing how much truth is out there for the taking. We are awash in a sea of truth, and for all the impact it's having on our culture, it may as well be white noise</hijack>
 
Paul Washer - HeartCry Missionaries
John Piper - Desiring God
Todd Friel - not a pastor but a great public speaker and radio host
R.W. Glenn - pastor of my church
Ravi Zacharias - been listening to him since 2002

Runner ups: Robert A. Snyder (reformed pastor, longtime friend, and Doctorate of Church History from SBTS), Allistar Begg, R.C. Sproul, John MacArthur.

ISn't this a problem? Reformed celebrity syndrome is destroying a lot of faithful ministers, who regularly get compared to "giants," and, of course, can't compete.

Some follow Paul, some Apollos, some Cephas, others Christ....

BE grateful for the preacher you have. He is God's primary agent in your spiritual growth, not the podcast.

Come on brother. Don't take it so seriously. Are we not to listen to these "Reformed Giants" simply because others can't compete? Who says they can't compete? Some of the greatest help to me on the series of Galatians that I am preaching through has been from listening to Fred Greco's sermons on Galatians. More so than John Piper or Tim Keller or any of these other "Giants."

Besides, I am grateful for myself. :smug:
 
I guess I am seeing too many good men turned out of pulpits because they can't match the preaching of the giants. I don't think it's healthy.

Sorry if that upsets you.
