Jack MacArthur (March 30, 1914 – June 15, 2005) was an American pastor.
He was born in Calgary to an Episcopalian minister, Harry MacArthur, and Olivia Fullerton MacArthur. MacArthur grew up in Los Angeles, California. MacArthur and his wife Irene raised four children, including pastor John MacArthur.[1] He was the senior pastor of Calvary Bible Church in Burbank.[2]
From 1942 until his death, MacArthur hosted the "Voice of Calvary" radio program. Between 1956 and 1983, the program was adapted for television.[1] MacArthur supported the ministry of John M. Perkins, so Perkins named the ministry Voice of Calvary, a nod to MacArthur's radio program.[2]
