“The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”
In the 1980s, biblical exposition was disappearing from many churches, replaced by pragmatism, personality, and cultural accommodation. But through the preaching ministry of John MacArthur and the founding of The Master’s Seminary, a new generation of pastors was trained to faithfully proclaim Scripture verse by verse.
FORTY tells the story of how one pastor’s uncompromising commitment to the Word of God sparked a global movement of expository preaching, shaping churches and training thousands of pastors for over four decades.
“I believe that all preaching has to be an explanation of the meaning of the Word of God. We're like waiters. God has prepared the meal. We deliver the meal. We teach at The Master’s Seminary the tools so that you can rightly divide the word of truth so that you can be an expository preacher.”
“This is because we believe that a generation of expositors would literally change the church and change the world.”
