One of the big questions floating around the Reformed world has been, "Who will replace R.C. Sproul when he retires from his leadership role at Ligonier Ministries?" Sproul has been the face of Ligonier for nearly 40 years (since 1971). On account of the fact that Dr. Sproul is one of the brightest and most articulate men of our times, finding one individual to carry on the ministry is an impractical task. It is on account of this, as well as the new venture of the Ligonier Academy, that Ligonier has announced that its four teaching fellows will be Dr. Sproul's successors. The current teaching fellows are Sinclair Ferguson, Robert Godfrey, Steve Lawson and R.C. Sproul Jr. You can read Chris Larson's announcement here.
