How Christians Are Manipulated
By Untethered Empathy

Guest: Joe Rigney

CURRENT PROGRAM: October 10, 2026

UPCOMING PROGRAM: OCTOBER 10, 2026

GUEST: Travis Allen, pastor and former managing director, Grace to You

On Monday, July 14, 2025 at 6:17 PM in Southern California, the soul and spirit of one of the great preachers left his deceased earthly body, ascending into heaven to meet the God he so faithfully served and proclaimed. His name was John MacArthur.

Only a small fraction of the world would recognize the immense spiritual impact that MacArthur had on millions around the globe—growing believers deeper in their faith and urging non-believers to repent and believe in Christ—through his preaching, books, seminary, university, radio program, and much more.

Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His godly ones.”

MacArthur was a godly one and oh-to-see him meet the Christ he boldly preached. “Well done, good and faithful slave” would have been his Master’s words.

Today on the program, Travis Allen, pastor of Grace Church in Greeley, CO and one who graduated from the seminary MacArthur led, taught at the church where MacArthur pastored, and led the radio ministry Grace to You that features MacArthur’s preaching, joins us to remember and respect the life and ministry of the elder statesman of the faith.

The aim is not to deify John MacArthur. He wouldn’t want that and would be the first to say he’s a sinner saved by God’s grace. Rather, we will examine and learn from the life of a man who trusted in Christ as Savior, obeyed Him as Lord, held His Word as the highest authority, diligently mined and preached its truths, and loved and shepherded the flock God entrusted to him for 56 years.

The Christian Worldview Journal is a monthly 12-page print publication which features insightful articles on current events and issues of the faith, exhorting readers to think and live in expectation of the return of Jesus Christ. It also contains ministry news and events, resource offers, listener correspondence, and more.
