You may recall that last year I did several interviews and posted them to this site. I interviewed, among others, Sam Waldron, Wayne Grudem and Derek Webb. I would like to put together another series of interviews to be posted sometime this fall and winter. I am thinking of turning them into podcasts, posting audio of the interviews this year rather than transcribing them as I have done in the past. I’ll decide that later. In the meantime, I am interested in gathering suggestions for people I may like to interview. I am not likely to have access to many of the top-tier Christian personalities (this blog may be reasonably popular but it is still, after all, only a blog) but am certainly not afraid to seek out interviews with anyone. The worst they can say, after all, is “No!” I suppose they could laugh at me too, and that would hurt my feelings. But either way, I’m not afraid to do the legwork and to request interviews.
I do not think I’ll have a topical focus this year from interview to interview. Rather, I’ll approach each differently based on the person I am interviewing. I would prefer to interview people with interesting stories than people who are simply the most popular. So feel free to send along your suggestions, either in the comments or by email. They can be Calvinist or Arminian, Christian or non, male or female, theologians or musicians…

I’d love to hear from Paul Washer, Thabiti Anyabwile, Tim Keller, and/or Sam Storms. I’ve heard from most of the “big name” guys above. These listed are not so well known (Keller is a little more well-known), but have really impacted me in the past year(s).
Proposed topics:

Anyabwile on His Conversion, Witness to Muslims
Keller on being the church
Storms on being Reformed and Charismatic

While big-name availability might be tricky (I’m not sure of Bono’s desire to be interviewed for a blog), it would be interesting to try and interview those in a more pastoral/academic role; I’m thinking specifically of:
Bryan Chapell (Covenant Seminary)
Duane Litfin (Wheaton)
Philip Ryken (Tenth Pres)
Clyde Cook (Biola—before he retires)
and yes, MacArthur and Sproul would be really cool!

Would it be possible to interview someone on the mission field? (This would probably mean they are not exactly name-brand names for believers) Still, it might awaken US/Canadian people to the realities of working, ministering and doing theology in restricted access countries like China, India or any of the Moslem affinity states. I don’t have names, but I’m know John Piper’s church supports some godly, effective ministers-of-the-gospel in the heart of the world’s darkness.

Paul Washer - He has been mentioned now several times. Also, TJ Smith asked about a missionary. Paul might very well fit this suggestion as well. he runs a missions organization that is quite unique, supporting indigenous missionaries around the world. I really recommend this one.
An interview with Gordon Fee, who has also been mentioned could be profitable.
Jerry Bridges, if you could just let him set the agenda for the interview.

I would second the Ken Ham/Jonathan Sarfati interview. I stand with them in the Genesis debate, but I have always wondered what they think about things like Calvinism and eschatology.
Another great preacher/pastor who always has something timely and biblical to say but never seems to get any press is Alistair Begg. Plus the Scottish accent will make for a good podcast.

You might try:

36. Steve Camp
September 11, 2006

Tim:
IMHO, don’t interview any “names” in evangelicalism. They all have a book to sell; an agenda to hype; their own platform to expand; and stock answers to share again and again and again. If we’ve heard one, we’ve heard them all. Very boring.
BUT, why not go after the interview that is more of a rarity and that is seldom done? I.e. - Eric Alexander (the “finest expositor in the world today” - a MacArthur quote - and the last of the ‘old guard’ still living today). Or say a Christian writer in mainstream culture like Steve Turner; who is one of the most lucid thinkers on the post-modern, moral pluralistic state of society today and a former writer for Rolling Stone Magazine… He is brilliant. Or possibly a political figure that has had “ties” to Christianity, but has blurred the lines with their heterodox views and life-style: Bill Clinton is the quintessential example of this.
Most of the names mentioned on this thread you ‘could’ interview, but they will only be interesting if you challenge them on their status quo opinions: Falwell’s anti-Reformed Theology; McLaren’s apostasy from biblical Christianity; any CCM artist who charges tickets for their concerts and is signed to a label owned by a large multi-national conglomerate, who likes to sing “God is my girlfriend songs” or who has made praise and worship music a form of entertainment; etc. Or, if you interviewed a pop icon like Bono, you would have to challenge his liberal, bankrupt social gospel mixed with political underpinning and an anti-biblical prrof-texting (save the planet, eradicate the poor, global warming, etc.)
Or, you could interview several evangelical leaders that have their own study bibles and ask them how they can justify putting their names on God’s Word and personally profiting financially from the sale of holy writ. Now that would be an interesting podcast… :-).
Just my opinion, I could be wrong…

“an anti-biblical prrof-texting (save the planet, eradicate the poor, global warming, etc.)”
Whoa! Bono wants do to that?! All this time I thought he wanted to eriadicate poverty — but he really just wants to kill all the poor people? Just when you think you know a guy…
Maybe Derek Webb… or how about R.C. Sproul, Jr.? Or Michael Spencer? Or perhaps V. Gene Robinson?
It looks like Steve Camp wants you to interview him, but he’s too shy to ask. ;)

I’m in agreement with Piper for his theology and joy.

10:29 AM
The “big names” listed above are great, but I think we already see, hear, and read much from and about them. I agree with the suggestions of interviewing Missionaries and others like Steve Camp’s suggestion of Steve Turner. I would like to hear from people whose faith is challenged on a daily basis because of their intimate interaction with our fallen world rather than from those who speak from academic settings. If you are interested in some missionaries, I can connect you with several who work in and with the Muslim population both here and abroad. Contact me offline.
Peace,
Jamie

David Powlison - he is one of the best thinkers/writers/teachers on how our therapeutic, psychologized culture has so infiltrated the evangelical church that the sheep no longer recognize the wolf for what he really is but cooperate with his agenda.

I suggest some of the guys from the early “Jesus Music” movement. It would be interesting to hear their comparisons to that movement and the Emergent church (if there are any comparisons).
i.e. Larry Norman
Randy Stonehill
Bob Hartman (Petra)
Kerry Livgren (Kansas, AD)
Matthew Ward
Terry Scott Taylor (Daniel Amos)

maybe people want Tim to interview the “big names” in Evangelicalism, since they are big names due to the fact they do big things and start big movements and have lots of influence. I don’t see anything wrong with wanting to better understand these big name Christians and why they believe as they do. I would love to hear Challies interview Bishop T.D. Jakes

I listened to a sermon last week by T.D. Jakes. It was the most moving, inspirational, motivational, exceptional sermon I’ve heard in a long time. It was just a potatoe chip sermon. That is, it satisfied a hunger pain but there wasn’t much substance to it. But, sometimes potatoe chips hit the spot!
I second the motion… interview T.D. Jakes.

For your Canadiana audience, what about:
Brian Stiller (Tyndale University College)
John Stackhouse (Regent College)
Bruce Clemengher (Evangelical Fellowship of Canada)
Bringing some of the Canadian Evangelical issues up to the front might be a good eye-opener for your broader audience.

I actually would love to hear an interview with Dr. D. James Kennedy. Mark Driscoll is another good one. I think spotlighting missionaries would be great. But one I would be extremely interested in hearing is Dr. Bernard Nathanson, the former abortion doctor turned pro-life activist.
50. Frank

I have to agree with Mr. Camp on this one. I think he has a very valid and great point.
“any CCM artist who charges tickets for their concerts”
Speaking of CCM artists and charging for tickets & cd’s and what not. I did notice that Derek Webbs latest one was free. Which was cool, because I think that falls right in like with Derek’s character. From what little I’ve read about the guy, he doesn’t seem to fall into a category of most artists.
51. rescuetheperishing
September 11, 2006
1:10 PM
wow!
All of those names are great! For what it’s worth here are my suggestions:
*Tom Ascol (Founders Ministeries) and/or Ken Puls (Founders Study Center)
*Jeff Fuller (reformedevangelist.com)
*Mark Driscoll (to clear up how his doctrine/theology line up with his colorful choice of words, so to speak….*ahem*)
*Alistair Begg
*Paul Washer (I understand that he has an amazing story of a drug dealer in Peru, while he was a missionary there). Also, having his wife on with him, Charo, to give her personal testimony would be outstanding!
*Todd Friel (wayofthemasterradio.com)
*CJ Mahaney
*Hugh Ross and Ken Ham (zoinks! that would be somethin’)
*Brian McLaren and James White together would be a zesty interview (and quite long, I’d reckon…with you not getting a word in edge-wise!)
52. Matt

KIRK CAMERON! he has been doing some amazing things with his evangelism ministry and has come out of nowhere to be on fire for the gospel and Jesus. He is a really really sharp guy who is totally passionate about evangelism and would love to be interviewed (I think, from what I know about his heart from his dvds and website), and you could even probe him about reformed theology (since, while he seems to me to be arminian, his ministry is extremely gospel-centered). who knows? you might turn a sharp man of God toward being an even sharper reformed minister of the gospel :) Kirk Cameron. Gotta love him!

D.A. Carson would be a great interview on a wide variety of subjects. It would also be interesting to get Stephen Westerholm’s thoughts on modern Pauline scholarship (and other topics). Edward Welch writes great books that help Christians with difficult struggles and I am sure he would be a worthwhile interview. John Hannah of DTS & WTS Dallas would be alot of fun as would Phil Johnson, the original Pyromaniac.

I second Campi’s suggestion - go the route less travelled and showcase someone that isn’t well known but making an incredible contribution to the body of Christ. There are so many people like that out there in our society. I bet if you thought about it for a few minutes, everyone reading could think of a few people they know that fits that description.
Just a thought. :o)

Matt beat me to it; I was going to ask for Peter Kreeft myself. I also second the motion for Larry Norman or Randy Stonehill, although I guess Larry’s in pretty bad health and might not be accessible.
How about someone from the Eastern side of Christendom, like Peter Gilchrist or Frankie Schaeffer? Gilchrist especially, I think, would be fascinating to talk to.
I tried a few years ago to get an interview with Pope Pius XIII (né Lucian Pulvermacher), who currently lives in a trailer park outside of Spokane. His Holiness never got back to me, though. Maybe you could have better luck. :)

Paul Washer’s name keeps coming up. I have only heard the one talk that he had at the youth rally and was very impressed with his love of God and hard truth. He may be just obscure enough to accept an interview on a blog. I would rather it be a podcast. I hate reading long articles on the computer.
Also John Hendrix at monergism.com could use a plug after he gets finnished with his website redesign/update.

Thanks to Rachel for asking for written transcripts in addition to podcasts. Please include the interviews in written form. Some of us dinosaurs still can’t do podcasts.
Here is a name that has not come up yet - Russell Moore of Southern Seminary in Louisville. You and you readers/listeners won’t be disappointed.
Interview someone you kow who the rest of the world does not, who is being faithful and biblical and stays small and continues on in obscurity.
Not that the following are obscure but how about Dwayne Cline in Hamilton who is doing a great work with the poor there out of Hughson Street Baptist. Give our friend Paul Martin a go. There’s a guy who has a lot to say and most of it is actually worth listening to.

I don’t know what his story is, which is why I’d like to see someone interview Iain H. Murray of Banner of Truth Trust. I’ve loved his biographies and many of his other writings as well.
Others it would be great to hear from would be Mark Driscoll, John MacArthur, R. C. Sproul, any of the T4TG fellows and Ray Comfort.
I would also love to see an interview with a Catholic priest who converted to Reformed Protestantism (lay or clergyman). I don’t know of anyone like this, but I think that would be a great interview.

Go into the interview with a pre-defined point of view and be very eisegetical. This method apparently works very well — Michael Moore is quite rich.

Romans 1:14 I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.
… and, the irrepressible, Kirk Cameron! :)

With all due respect, the guy that runs carm.org’s name is Matt Slick…not Swift. (Although, that is just as catchy!)
He would be an interesting interview.
