“This means that a minister must not be the kind of person who apologizes for breathing. Every man called to the ministry shares Paul’s sentiment on the one hand — who is sufficient for these things (2 Cor. 2:16)? On the other hand, he must be the kind of man who tells these sentiments of his to shut up, and who will stand up and address men and women with the very words of God. Let the one who speaks, speak as the very oracle of God (1 Pet. 4:11)” (Why Ministers Must Be Men, p. 55).
