Mahaney Interviews Dever

9Marks just came out with their latest leadership interview. Normally Mark Dever serves as the host and peppers the guest pastors and authors with questions. But in the newest interview the tables are turned as C.J. Mahaney interviews Mark Dever. I've been listening to it this week and found it both interesting and compelling. Mark Dever is a gift to the church, and this segment provides a glimpse of Mark's life and vision, as well as of the humor and friendship of these two men. C.J. does a great job honoring Mark and consistently pointing out his lack of athletic ability and or interest.

Even if you're not a pastor, you'll benefit from this interview. There's a section where Mark talks about the "god of opportunity" that he very purposefully chose not to follow when he made the decision to commit himself to pastoral ministry at Capitol Hill Baptist Church. It will challenge any young adult who struggles to make a decision because it cuts off other options.
