Today, February 9, 2024, John MacArthur marked 55 years as the pastor of Grace Community Church. The Lord has preserved Pastor John through extraordinary changes, both in the culture and the church. Through it all, John has faithfully taught truth and God has blessed that commitment.

For the past four years, Austin Duncan and the MacArthur Center for Expository Preaching team have recorded more than 20 hours of interviews with John MacArthur for the center’s top-rated podcast. In these interviews, John goes behind-the-scenes of his ministry, his approach to preaching, his friendships, theological battles, times of suffering, and much more.

Believers who live under constant threat and discrimination face intense temptations to grow weak and discouraged. What they need more than anything is the strength that comes from an ever-deepening faith in the gospel, and that’s why Christ equips His Church with local pastors who can help His body grow.

The story of Pastor Vlad Burlaka is one that is common among TMS graduates – showing up to Grace Community Church with raw material and a desire to serve the Lord, not knowing all that the Lord was yet to accomplish in his ministry.

“Everything I’ve been given is grace. None of it is deserved. That’s the lesson of my life. God healed my body. He saved me. And now I pray he uses me for his glory. I’m so thankful to be here at TMU, the perfect place to learn how to honor him for the rest of my life.”

William Tyndale gave his life to translating Scripture because he believed in the authority of God’s Word. That is the foundational conviction of the Tyndale Center.
