More quotes by Mark Driscoll

Image
I have noticed that people tend to stop maturing when they start self-medicating. Everyone has very tough seasons of life, but by persevering through them we have an opportunity to mature and grow as people. Those who self-medicate...often thwart maturity as they escape the tough seasons of life rather than face them.

The Bible is not a book of principles to live by but rather a Person to live for.

Image
My desire as a Christian pastor is to see churches raised up as communities of grace ruled by Jesus and led by his gloriously masculine men who work their jobs, eat their meat, drink their beer, romance their wives, study their Bible, and raise their kids in glory and joy

Idols tend to be good things that you have turned into god things, which therefore become bad things

A lot of people are using the Church, but not a lot of people are loving the Church.
Mark Driscoll
Image
The church was custom built by Jesus, and we are all works in progress. We do not expect people to get their sin in order before attending church any more than a hospital expects people to get healed before they show up.

Image
I want to live with autonomy. That's the essence of sin.

Image
Spirituality, without the Holy Spirit, is demonic.

Image
Gentleman, it is a terrifying thing for a woman to trust a sinful man.
Mark Driscoll
Image
You're either selfish, or you're a servant...but fundamentally selfish people are terrible friends, terrible lovers, terrible spouses, terrible Christians, terrible parents. They leave a terrible legacy. Will you be selfish? Will you be a servant?...A good marriage is a servant and a servant.

God is tolerant in that He asks everyone to repent.
Mark Driscoll
Image
The inevitable result of borrowed faith is lost faith. People born into a family anchored in Christendom tend to assume they're right with God, regardless of whether they personally turn from sin and trust in Jesus.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Everyone has something to teach you if you are humble enough to learn.
Mark Driscoll
Image
No one can remain neutral regarding Jesus' resurrection. The claim is too staggering, the event too earthshaking, the implications too significant and the matter too serious. We must either receive it or reject it as truth for us. To remain indifferent or undecided is to reject it.
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
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.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Repentance keeps sin from condemning us because Jesus died and scorned the shame.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Some will tell you that there are multiple worldviews. The Bible says we have only 2: the Truth and the Lie.

Image
A wife who lets herself go and is not sexually available to her husband in the ways that the Song of Songs is so frank about is not responsible for her husband's sin, but she may not be helping him either.

There are some women who are a good time and there are some women who are a good legacy.
