Miller’s sermon knit a view of Christ in my mind that brought me over beams of light traveling back to before the universe began to glimpse the holy and loving intra-Trinitarian delight the Three Persons of the One God has in each other. For the rest of the day I never came down from the mountaintop of glorious words. Miller, though…David Miller! I heard, I rejoiced. Mike Riccardi’s sermon on the Cleansing of the Leper plunged my mind into the depths of despair over my sin before raising me to see the glory of Christ as compassionate Savior of our sinful state. The Holy Spirit will use the words preached to convict my heart, awaken my conscience, expand my mind in knowledge and aroma of Christ, lead me in sanctification, all that and more that the Bible promises He will do when we revel in the Word. During sermons or at conferences, especially one like G3, my spirit will connect in a major way with the Sprit in me. I trust the G3 ministry to properly vet who they will choose to platform, so my discernment radar was on low volume.ĭavid Miller at the 2018 G3 Conference, video screen shotĪnd what a voice it was. I was eager to hear this new voice, one of which I had not been aware. His precise understanding of the scriptures combined with his delivery make for a powerful listening experience.Īt G3, Miller delivered the sermon, “ The Excellency of Christ“. He has the country accent, much gravitas, an understated delivery of the truths anchored in the word of God, and an arched wit. Miller calls himself “Country Preacher at Large”.

After serving as director of missions for Little Red River Association for 25 years, often counseling preachers on how to preach from the Bible, Miller retired in 1995 and began looking for another mission position to fill."
He said the conference is "often the closest they will come to being formally educated in biblical preaching and ministry." The conference began in 1997 as the brainchild of Miller, who has preached expository sermons for 51 years. The article on Miller further states, "Many of the pastors who attend the EPC are not, and probably will not be, seminary-trained," said Brad Johnson, pastor of Tumbling Shoals Baptist, about the event held this past spring. Not every preacher has opportunity to attend seminary. But what a joy to see the layers peeled back a bit and learn of new pockets of His remnant! He is sustaining his elders who persevere in gracious joy. I’m always gladdened by the news that in various corners of the world, Jesus is raising up churches. Through the Expository Preaching Conference (EPC), Tumbling Shoals Baptist Church has helped train more than 1,500 pastors in biblical preaching and ministry. The opening of this story is a huge encouragement- In a quiet little town two miles north of Heber Springs, Ark., a church with a congregation of no more than 75 on an average Sunday morning has been providing training for pastors for the past 19 years. The Baptist Press published a good story on Miller and the Expository Preaching Conference, here. His work-around? Miller has memorized the Bible. Miller is in a wheelchair and cannot hold a Bible. Miller has suffered from a degenerative muscular disease called peroneal muscular atrophy. He prefers the title “Country Preacher at Large.” He resides in Heber Springs, Arkansas, with Glenda, his wife of 50 years.” He has been in full-time evangelism since 1995 with Line Upon Line Ministries. “ David Miller has been preaching for over 50 years. Here is Miller’s bio, from Tumbling Shoals Baptist Church, Line Upon Line’s partner in their joint endeavor, the Expository Preaching Conference (EPC). Line Upon Line was founded in 1985 and since 1995 Miller has been evangelizing, speaking at various places in and around his home of Heber Springs Arkansas.
I’d offer a website url or a Facebook page but there is little public or current about this ministry other than churches and organizations announcing that Brother Miller is set to speak at their event. What a great theme for a sermon.ĭavid Miller is an Arkansas pastor, now evangelist with Line Upon Line Ministries. I was anticipating his sermon, it was on The Excellency of Christ. I usually know of most of the men slated to speak, I mean, how can you NOT know of Voddie Baucham, Paul Washer, John MacArthur and so on?īut there was one name this year with which I was not familiar – David Miller. When I plan to attend the National G3 Conference put on by Josh Buice and his church, Pray’s Mill Baptist, I eagerly look forward to the moment when lineup of speakers and their topics for preaching are published for the public.
