Vintage Church sets up to be the continuation of where Vintage Jesus left off. Vintage Jesus upset some people as they thought that Driscoll took too many liberties in describing who Jesus was. Although I disagree with them, it is hard for me to see where those same people will have issue with this ...

I am increasingly loving being proved wrong - I think in the past when I used to be puffed up with pride reading my theological books and liking to convince myself that I was something of an "academic" then being proved wrong was horrid. But as I am growing older I am realising that there is a wonde...

I just got out of the conference a few minutes ago and thought I'd do a few emails and such.  What did I find?  Hundreds of page views coming from Founders.  I knew Founders had put up a post linking me in their latest crusade.  I did not expect that many page reads, however.  Thank you Dr. Asc...

It is very appropriate and timely for Mark Driscoll and Gerry Breshears to release a book on church ministry.  Driscoll has become a bit of a model for young church planters through his Acts 29 network and various conference appearances.  Therefore, a consolidated ‘volume’ if you will ...

Precipitation caught Southern Baptists without their umbrella last week, but now slowly moves to the north.  Sheets of water were visibly heavy at times, as a steady downpour of defenders made their case for Seattle pastor, Mark Driscoll, and his continued influence among Southern Baptists.

Mark Driscoll was interviewed on CNN by D.L. Hughley and, while he has certainly had his share of controversial issues, this was not a good moment for Mark or the church of Jesus Christ. Mr. Driscoll, it does not all boil down to, as you said to Mr. Hughley, whether or not he “digs” Jesu...

Mark did what he could with the time he had with D.L. I hope that he had some off camera time with him to really speak to him. The best thing that could actually come out of this would be if D.L. started to listen to Driscoll's sermons. The reason I say this is because Driscoll didn't get that much ...

Alvin Reid, Professor of Evangelism at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, has a problem.  This is an excellent article putting the recent issue regarding Mark Driscoll in historical context.  Take a moment and read his article .  Here is his conclusion: Finally, I have a problem with my c...

[Note: To read SEBTS's response to Baptist Press, go here.] Yesterday, Baptist Press came out with a hit piece on Mark Driscoll, preaching pastor of Mars Hills Church in Seattle, WA called “Driscoll’s Vulgarity Draws Media Attention.”  Within minutes after posting, the reaction fr...
