Study the Bible like a soldier on a mission, not a scholar on a sabbatical.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Idols tend to be good things that you have turned into god things, which therefore become bad things
Mark Driscoll

Past: Jesus saved us from the penalty of sin. Present: He saves us from the power of sin. Future: He will save us from the presence of sin.
Mark Driscoll

The problem with criticism today is that is instant, constant, global and permanent.
Mark Driscoll
Image
So let me tell you this, when it comes to...trying to introduce other people to Jesus. Don't get mad at them: it's not because they're stupid. It's because they're blind. Yelling louder, arguing harder, pushing firmer won't make someone who is blind see. Pray for them, speak to them, care for them.

Fear is not always a sin but it always is an opportunity.
Mark Driscoll

You can't meet Jesus and not change. If you haven't changed, you haven't met the real Jesus.

Faith only grows through suffering.

This world needs more than good works. It needs good news. Good works come out of the good news.

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

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.

You have to laugh at yourself. Otherwise you'll waste all that great material.

Married life can seem as if it's only five days long. The first day you meet, the second day you marry, the third day your raise your children, the fourth day you meet your grandchildren, and the fifth day you die first or bury your spouse to go home alone for the first time in many years.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Stop looking for the path of least resistance and start running down the path of greatest glory to God and good to others, because that's what Jesus, the Real Man, did.
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
Gentleman, it is a terrifying thing for a woman to trust a sinful man.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Who you think you are is what compels you to do what you do!
Mark Driscoll
Image
Ladies, use a loving voice, use a respectful voice, use a godly voice, but don't lose your voice.

I am not ashamed of the Gospel.

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.
