R. C. Sproul, who hosted the program, "Renewing Your Mind" on many Christian and allegedly Christian radio stations has died. He was a proponent of "reformed" Christianity which means going along with the Reformation movement and its proponents. He died in mid December in a suburb of Orlando, Florida, where his Ligonier Ministries was located. Sproul died of COPD. Having heard him speak a number of times, I always thought he was a smoker.
I have mixed emotions about him. Although much of his preaching was certainly Bible based, his programs were often boring and filled with long dissertations about philosophy and the teachings of various philosophers. This was often way above the heads of the average listener and quite frankly, had nothing to do with preaching about a particular Biblical passage as one would do in expository preaching or topical preaching.
His son, R. C. Sproul, Junior was, and I stress the word "was" an up and coming figure in his father's ministry and often did the radio program. He was arrested for DUI related charges in the midwest in recent times and was dismissed from the operation, as I heard it. This is not a reflection on RC, as no matter how good a parent is or how much of a great example parents can be, a child is still a free moral agent and can do whatever they want.
