This past Sunday Pastor Mark talked about Mary’s song in Luke 1. He talked about how incredibly theological the teenagers song was, how her view of God affected her life, and how her theology brought her to worship. In addition to making the sermons available in both audio and video form, we also make them [...]
The Scripture reading of Mary’s Song as recorded in Luke 1:46–55 that accompanies the sermon this week comes with a great God story.
The audio and video crew was with me in Nazareth at the only known well in town, the place where, it is believed, Jesus and Mary often would have drawn water. Today, a [...]
4.4 million. That’s the number of sermon downloads from Mars Hill Church’s website last year.
12,000. That’s how many downloads per day that 4.4 million breaks down to.
Each of those numbers is a person. A man in Sydney who watches the sermons with his wife. A young woman in Iowa who listens to the podcasts on [...]
The following excerpts are from the Birth Control chapter in Pastor Mark Driscoll’s book Religion Saves: And Nine Other Misconceptions. To read the rest of what he had to say on the topic, read the chapter for yourself or watch the sermon from the series.
“As the number of birth control options has increased and continues [...]
Pastor Mark’s sermon from this last week was about Mary and Elizabeth’s miraculous conceptions and how the Bible views the gift of life. He covered the contentious and heartbreaking topic of abortion from a Biblical and pastoral angle. That is one of the reasons we preach expositionally through the Scriptures; you can’t avoid the difficult [...]
Pastor Mark is the Pastor for Preaching and Teaching here at Mars Hill Church but there are also many other pastors on staff here. All of our pastors do an amazing job of making everything they do all about Jesus, so I wanted to take a minute to point out some of the great things [...]
Sunday, October 11 is my thirty-ninth birthday, the twentieth anniversary of my salvation (the exact date is known only by God), and the thirteenth anniversary of Mars Hill Church. So, on that day we will air at all campuses a special one-hour sermon from Acts 17 that I preached live this summer while standing on [...]
At 11:30pm tonight I’ll be featured for the third time on ABC’s Nightline. A month ago, Terry Moran and a great crew from ABC came to Mars Hill to talk with me about the second commandment. Terry had seen something I had posted on Twitter around the time of Michael Jackson’s funeral and wanted to [...]
In case you missed the sermon yesterday, here are a few of the highlights. In the first, Pastor Mark corrects some misconceptions of Mars Hill Church’s view of women, talks about his daughter, and challenges men. In the second, he discusses the often-overlooked costs of Mary’s faith in God. And, in the last clip, Pastor [...]
In light of the Raymond Jessop and Yearning For Zion cult, Pastor Mark addressed the question of whether or not polygamy is Biblical.
Various cults, aberrant sects, and perverts make the case that the Bible does mention polygamy and so it is biblically acceptable. However, they fail to acknowledge that the Bible speaks of human sin [...]
Changed By Jesus #54
By a female teenager at the Ballard campus
I was raised going to church every Sunday. I thought I was a Christian because I was really good at following rules and thought I was an expert on Jesus. But the personal, life-changing relationship wasn’t there.
This seemed to work for me in middle school, [...]
