I’ve noticed for some time that Mark Driscoll is at least as obsessed with money as he is with sex and gender roles – and further, his obsession with money is directly connected to his preoccupations with sex and proper gender roles.
So Mark Driscoll’s Mars Hill Church made a documentary… about themselves. Specifically, about the history of the church and how it came to be where it is today. The full documentary is online: God’s Work, Our Witness. Quite the title.
Tim Challies, a huge name in the reformed evangelical blogosphere, finally weighed in on the controversy surrounding C.J. Mahaney and Sovereign Grace Ministries today.

This time he invited his Facebook followers to mock “effeminate” worship leaders: Text: “So, what story do you have about [...]
Christian and former cage fighter Matt Morin has a fantastic article on mixed martial arts (or MMA, the technical title for cage fighting) and its implications for thinking about masculinity from a Christian perspective. It’s a brilliant and thorough takedown of Mark Driscoll.
Trigger warning for the video in particular – emotional/psychological abuse. Mark Driscoll is at it again, making pronouncements from on high about who’s going to be damned to hell. There’s a lot that’s wrong here. He’s claiming yet again that a version of Christianity that teaches that the vast majority [...]
