Update: give it a chance! Please post full sermons again!
Update: initially I struggled with the format change. Seems altogether silly to reflect on now. I am thankful that old sermons are coming out of the archives and (if not entire sermons) then significant highlights are being republished. This new format has proved to be a tremendous blessing to me. Thank you!!

I have been a longtime listener to this podcast and do not like this change to 20 minute excerpts. Pastor John has far and away been the most influential preacher in my life apart from my local church, and full sermons once posted here were instrumental to my spiritual growth. Old sermons can be accessed on the DG website, but this podcast format was quick and easy for complete sermons. Please bring them back!!!!!!!!!
LOVE TO START MY DAY WITH THIS!
I listen to it every day M-F as I drive my middle-school-aged son to school. We both love it. It is challenging and convicting and just the perfect amount of time for our drive ♥️ I am thankful for God for this podcast.
Bring back old format!
Love the content, but please bring back old format of full sermons!
