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
Image
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
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.

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.

Forgiveness is both a decision and a process.

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.

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.

Fear is vision without hope.

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.

If my words don't flow out of a heart that rests in God's control, sovereignty, then they come out of the heart that seeks control so I can get what I want.
Mark Driscoll
Image
Who you think you are is what compels you to do what you do!
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.

Study the Bible like a soldier on a mission, not a scholar on a sabbatical.

Work like an Arminian, sleep like a Calvinist.

I am not ashamed of the Gospel.
Mark Driscoll
Image
So I decided to start a church, for three reasons. First, I hated going to church and wanted one I liked, so I thought I would just start my own. Second, God had spoken to me in one of those weird charismatic moments and told me to start a church. Third, I am scared of God and try to do what he says.

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.

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

A lot of people are using the Church, but not a lot of people are loving the Church.
