Take a stab at who made this quote:
My encouragement to all Christian preachers is to not get too fancy on Easter.
It is the day we want to be incredibly clear about the death of Jesus for our sins and the resurrection of Jesus for our salvation. We do not need to be clever. We need to be clear. And we need to add to that clarity a fitting and authentic excitement for the victory of Jesus Christ over Satan, sin, death, hell, and the wrath of God while calling sinners to be saved.

John MacArthur?
ok ladies,
i'm a proud man pursuing humility, but even i wouldn't quote myself as a mystery quote!
i'm not trying to make it harder for you to pursue humility, but i really did think, at first, this was simply something you wrote. i had to read it twice to figure out it was a quote from someone else.
Are you all telling me that you were able to resist the urge just to google it right away?
100% honesty--my first thought was, "That sounds like something Danny would say."
it has the word EASTER!
that should be the first clue it wasn't mine.
Mark Driscoll, esquire
