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

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.

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.

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

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
Ultimately I think the difference between reading the Bible and studying it is making the connections between who Jesus is and what he's done.

Everyone has something to teach you if you are humble enough to learn.

Image
I'll preach anywhere. If it's a round trip ticket to preach in hell, I'll take it-as long as it's round trip.

Image
This world needs more than good works. It needs good news. Good works come out of the good news.
Mark Driscoll
Image
I want to live with autonomy. That's the essence of sin.

Ladies, use a loving voice, use a respectful voice, use a godly voice, but don't lose your voice.

Spirituality, without the Holy Spirit, is demonic.
