The Alleged Volunteer Non-Disclosure Agreement for The Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Arizona

This is the alleged non-disclosure agreement that The Trinity Church asks volunteers to sign. In the view of this blog its worthless and appears shoddy. The picture is hard to see so this blog re-typed it so it could be read. If there are any other non-disclosure agreements for staff and employees of The Trinity Church, please email one to this blog. That can be done anonymously. 

A Family is Allegedly Driven From Mark Driscoll’s The Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Arizona

Stories are beginning to emerge from Mark Driscoll’s The Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Arizona. This is one of many that are coming forward. What happened in this case is that a fifteen year old and seventeen year old female who was Mark Driscoll’s daughter mutually kissed. Afterward when Mark Driscoll learned of it he became unhinged. It led to an alleged campaign of harassment including false accusations made that the Scottsdale Police had to investigate.

Mark Driscoll On When You Have Lost Everything. Will the Embattled Pastor Ever Take Responsibility For His Abuse at Mars Hill Seattle?

Recently Mark Driscoll gave a talk in which he described how he left Seattle, and without naming it Mars Hill Church. The embattled and controversial pastor described how much he and his family had suffered and how he was attacked and slandered. But he spoke recently about how the Lord told him that he still had his anointing to do ministry. In this context Mark Driscoll will never own the abuse from Mars Hill Seattle. In the view of this blog this is an individual who needs to see a psychologist for mental help.

Considering Ravi Zacharias and his Passing. Do Evangelical Leaders Think of Death and Funerals? Or are the Pewsitters the Only Ones Guilted Regularly About Death?

Ravi Zacharias has died and with his death evangelicals are singing his praises. Evangelical scandal has changed and now follows people to the grave where their dishonesty remains. Dishonest in life means being dishonest in death. When Jesus says, “Well done good and faith servant” what do you do when evangelicals embrace a man who was dishonest about his education and engaged in sexting during an emotional affair with a married woman? Evangelicals ignore scandal and this blog dealt with this issue when David Powlison of Christian Counseling and Education Foundation died. But can you imagine when the funerals are held for Mark Driscoll, C.J. Mahaney, and James MacDonald one day how much lying will take place?

In Order to Understand Evangelical Culture One Should Cease Reading their Bible and Read George Orwell Instead

In order to understand evangelical Christian culture one should read, study and pay attention to the themes from George Orwell in his classic novels.

Because remember comrade, while all animals are equal some like your pastor are more equal than others.

Let’s Be Honest, Many will Never Learn and they will Live their Life Going from Cult to Cult

Let’s be brutally honest. One of the lessons I have learned over the past three years is that many people will never learn. Some people drift from cult to cult and keep getting involved in bad situations repeatedly.  Its time that this be discussed and I also realize that I can’t help said individuals.

Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra’s Horrific Article at The Gospel Coalition About How Acts 29 Thrived After Mars Hill Ignores Many of the Issues in the Troubled Network

Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra wrote a troubling article for The Gospel Coalition last December. She talks about how Acts 29 thrives and grew out of the Mars Hill implosion. In the article Sarah conveniently forgets a lot of issues about both Mark Driscoll and Acts 29. From forgetting that Driscoll stated that women are penis homes to Matt Chandler’s The Village Church attempting to a place a  women her annulled her marriage to a child pornography addict under church discipline.  Sarah is an example of what is possible when one ingests large sums of Kool Aid.
