I'm not, tbh. Pastor Chappell has quite a few John MacArthur books and commentaries in his office. He doesn't agree with everything that MacArthur believes; but he does respect him. Pastor Chappell is not narrow-minded in his vision. If I had to describe him, I would say he looks at things...

I'm not sure how aware he was that some staff leaders said comments like that every now and then. It wasn't like they taught whole class lectures on how to please your pastor or anything like that. Just every now and then you would hear one of those comments and be like, hmmm. I don't...

I know that WCBC grad. We were both on tour groups there. Some of the stuff he said was true and some was subjective based on personal feelings/experiences. The emphasis on treating the pastor almost like a king and being ultra loyal was taught by some professors, but not all. Some were more...
