...Seattle has unleashed this weird phenomenon on the world called the coffee shop. And the coffee shop, thanks to Starbucks, is the place where socially isolated, lonely, needy people gather together to ignore one another.

More quotes by Mark Driscoll
Repentance keeps sin from condemning us because Jesus died and scorned the shame.
Mark Driscoll
Fear is not always a sin but it always is an opportunity.
Mark Driscoll
Much of spirituality today is an effort to change God to suit us. But he's not going to become more like us, we need to become more like him.
Mark Driscoll
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.
Mark Driscoll
God picked a junior high girl [to be Jesus' mother]. Jesus was raised by a woman who today, we wouldn't even let her lead a bible study at a high school. But she could raise God.
Mark Driscoll
Faith only grows through suffering.
Mark Driscoll
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.
Mark Driscoll
You can't meet Jesus and not change. If you haven't changed, you haven't met the real Jesus.
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
Work like an Arminian, sleep like a Calvinist.
Mark Driscoll
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
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
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
Mark Driscoll
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.
Mark Driscoll
Everyone is sinning, so it's no longer rebellious to sin. You're just a conformist if you're drunk and naked driving around in a loud motorcycle smoking cigarrettes breaking commandments getting pregnant out of wedlock. Everyone's done that. That's so tired!
Mark Driscoll
Did think you were here to kill time listening to Christian music until you go to heaven? We've got work to do.
Mark Driscoll
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
I want to live with autonomy. That's the essence of sin.
Mark Driscoll
This world needs more than good works. It needs good news. Good works come out of the good news.
Mark Driscoll
Who you think you are is what compels you to do what you do!
