The problem with criticism today is that is instant, constant, global and permanent.
Mark Driscoll

Our identity is not in our joy, and our identity is not in our suffering. Our identity is in Christ, whether we have joy or are suffering.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Women will be saved by going back to that role that God has chosen for them. Ladies, if the hair on the back of your neck stands up it is because you are fighting your role in the scripture.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Fathers need to be tough and tender...you be tough for your family, be tender with your family. You protect them, and you be a safe place.

An animal will conquer others. A Spirit-filled man conquers himself - self-discipline , self-control.

We're not to follow our hearts, we're to guard our hearts.

Any religious person who says he does not really need human friends because God is his Friend is calling God a liar because He's the One Who says we also need human friends.
