If you are upset by it, please contact  Doug Wilson, pastor of Christ Church in Moscow, Mark Driscoll of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, and/or Ed Eby, pastor of the Nazarene Church in Moscow to thank them for bringing Mark Driscoll to Moscow thus, to my attention, and subsequently to the Vision 2020 community.  We all should share in the blessings that the Kirks offers, don’t you think?

Talk about hitting record lows, this is an Olympic level of depravity even for you and the Toadies, Doug.

When are you going to learn that when you lie down with dogs (Doug’s???) you’ll come up with fleas? Your decision to allow Driscoll in your church - as anything but a repentant sinner  - speaks volumes about the current state of the leadership of the local Nazarene Church.  Perhaps, although it doesn’t seem likely at this point, you will learn that the money the Kirk pays you for the use of your facility is a pittance compared to the damage they do to your reputation and the dignity of your congregation. You don’t really think Christ Church elders give a rat’s fanny about you or your flock, do you?  Hint: they don’t, your church building is just convenient.    For those 2020 readers who have never heard of Mark Driscoll please read the article below by respected, conservative Christian author and radio host Ingrid Schlueter.

It seems to me that the content of his “sermons” are really intended to inspire them to . . . well, unlike Mark Driscoll, I’ll just leave it there.  It is my prayerful hope that you won’t humiliate and embarrass them with his presence.

[scroll down to page 20, the column called “Rattle and Hum” by Doug Wilson:  third paragraph beginning “By the time you receive this, our local police will probably have forgotten all about it, so a little bragging is now safe, and perhaps it is even in order”  edition: 11 -3 of Doug’s self-published journal Credenda Agenda .]  Now, twelve years later we are offered a dogs dish of a vision, shriveled-shanked, belly-sagging, gluttonous, gray bearded (with bits and bobs of breakfast still nestled in amongst the scraggy hairs), aging old men in button shirts and size 46 Dockers deluding themselves into believing that they represent splendid patriarchal  specimens to their (have-to-be) submissive wives.  Sad, so sad, while simultaneously ludicrous.

> MEDIA ADVISORY, Jan. 15 /Christian Newswire/ -- For years, Pastor Mark Driscoll of Mars Hill Church in Seattle has styled himself as hip and relevant and gritty. He's made a name for himself with his irreverence, his ultra-cool persona and most of all, for his crass discussion of sexual matters. It is this discussion of sexual matters that is increasingly removing Mr. Driscoll from the company of Christians who believe he long ago crossed a line of acceptable conduct for an evangelical pastor.
> 
> Pastor Driscoll, in a recent blog post, promotes a website called XXXXXXXX  which features articles on how a Christian wife can turn herself into XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Driscoll also sees himself as a sex advice counselor on his Mars Hill Blog, dispensing his recommendations for things XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXx. In short, he makes Planned Parenthood instructional videos look tame.
> 
> The fact that this press release is unlikely to make it through Internet filters speaks for itself. Author and former head of Eagle Forum in Washington state, Cathy Mickels, issued a press release yesterday, decrying the foul material being passed off in the name of relevant ministry by Mr. Driscoll. I join Mrs. Mickels in her profound disgust that this pastor has been legitimized and endorsed by leading Bible teachers like John Piper and Erwin Lutzer. Driscoll is allowed the platform that he has because Christian leaders have not said, "enough is enough!" Women are now having to speak up about the degrading and filthy content of Mr. Driscoll's "ministry."
> 
> At a time when American young people are hit in the face with graphic sexuality in every facet of our culture, the church should be a safe haven where the sacredness and privacy of the act of marriage is respected by pastors. Those with sexual issues need to receive private counseling---not sex seminars in a church auditorium. For generations, Christian pastors have managed to convey the Scripture's teachings on fornication, adultery and the beauty of sexuality within marriage without sullying and cheapening it, Driscoll-style.

> Mark Driscoll is a sad product of our times. While waving his orthodox doctrinal credentials, he has simultaneously embraced the spirit of the age when it comes to his treatment of sex. In the process, he is pornifying the church and only adding to the moral squalor of our culture.
