Steadfast, I share your love for Brother Grisham's teaching. Someone said he is long-winded, I say "who cares?"

Brother Littles' teaching (from UGST) captures my attention as well.

I know you said Apostolic teachers, but I love to hear Chuck Swindoll teach. Perry Stone is very good as well.

I'm the same on Bro. Grisham: who cares?!? He's incredible.

I heard Bro. Littles once and he did very well. Kind of had to 'stay on the trail' or you could lose him. :hypercoffee

Here's a thought...

Have we in Pentecost concentrated our efforts on Preaching so much we have created a Attention Disorder when it comes to teaching??

JT Pugh is one of the best there ever was if you ask me.

but honestly I have long thought that there are many God called teachers that have never held a title of preacher on any level. They are none the less talented and anointed teachers.

My dad is the best teacher I ever heard. He never once preached a sermon or ever tried to mark himself as a minister on any level. But before dad started teaching new converts in the 1970's at the church back home, new converts were simply not sticking. after, retention was unbelievable.

I suspect that this is the norm in really good churches. I think we think the 5 fold ministry means preachers that are one or more of the 5.

I think there are a lot of men who meet the criteria for the "teacher" who are not preachers at all.

Absolute truth. I knew a man in Indiana that was a horrid preacher with a very uncomely disposition (name withheld for obvious reasons) but was a great Pastor due to one key factor: he was a great teacher who conveyed basic Apostolic doctrines with undisputable clarity.

He admitted he was not a good preacher and some folks didn't like his personality. But they loved his knowledge of the Bible.

Were you at Conference when he taught against the "Divine Flesh" doctrine?

after that service he had meetings scheduled for two years..

Guess not... but I suspect it would be very interesting to say the least.

I really never thought that of Bro. Mooney myself - but he does have Bible knowledge!

A resounding 'yes' is in order here.

I've preached various Camps for years but this past year is the first time I've been the Bible Teacher at a camp. I have to admit that I really, really enjoyed it!

But, then again, I put a LOT of time into my studies and use PowerPoint and all the visuals, etc., when possible. My Church LOVES when I do 'series' teachings and, honestly, I do too. It take a lot more time to put the studies together (I do all my own stuff) but I can use one series for sometimes months at a time.
