About this sermon
Ever wondered what street preacher's words could ignite such a passion in a man, that it would lead him to become a major spiritual influence on others? In this episode, Stephen Davey uncovers the life and legacy of the great AW Tozer. From his beginnings as a spiritual leader, to his unconventional methods of developing his voice - including reading Milton's Paradise Lost aloud and blowing up balloons in his briefcase - we delve into how Tozer's teachings continue to inspire believers today. In this compelling episode, we discuss the crucial role of preachers as prophets delivering ultimatums, not diplomats delivering compromises. Discover Tozer's belief that the purpose of genuine exposition is application, and his surprising view that the devil is a better theologian than any of us. We also explore his thoughts on the importance of music in the church, and why he encouraged younger believers to invest in a hymnal more than 100 years old. Finally, join us as we celebrate Tozer's most significant contribution: the exaltation of Jesus Christ. Don't miss this enlightening journey into the life and teachings of AW Tozer!
