"What I feel strongly, is that I would be very happy to retire and sit under your preaching for the rest of my life. In other words, I think you are 1) a solid expositor of the precous Word; 2) and earnest lover of Christ; 3) a saint with a life seasoned with suffering and therefore able to touch me and others who have known battles; 4) a good communicator that doesn't make people feel awkward; 5) a shrewd enough observer of culture and human nature to connect the ancient truth with present reality; and 6) you have tasted the glory of the gospel and believe it and are a child of God and an anointed, called servant of Jesus."
