More quotes by Mark Driscoll
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
Study the Bible like a soldier on a mission, not a scholar on a sabbatical.
Mark Driscoll
God is tolerant in that He asks everyone to repent.
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
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
...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.
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
Some will tell you that there are multiple worldviews. The Bible says we have only 2: the Truth and the Lie.
Mark Driscoll
Everyone has something to teach you if you are humble enough to learn.
Mark Driscoll
Fear is not always a sin but it always is an opportunity.
Mark Driscoll
Idols tend to be good things that you have turned into god things, which therefore become bad things
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
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
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.
Mark Driscoll
The goal of Christian dating is not to have a boyfriend or girlfriend but to find a spouse. Have that in mind as you get to know one an- other, and if you’re not ready to commit to a relationship with the end goal of marriage, it’s better not to date but simply to remain friends.
Mark Driscoll
Ladies, use a loving voice, use a respectful voice, use a godly voice, but don't lose your voice.
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
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
Faith only grows through suffering.
Mark Driscoll
We're not to follow our hearts, we're to guard our hearts.
