Mark Driscoll Still Featured at Hillsong in 2015

Despite the unfinished business at Mars Hill Church, Mark Driscoll is still a featured speaker at Hillsong’s Sydney Australia conference next year.
A flyer given out in church last Sunday tells the tale. The brochure claims the conference will champion “the cause of local churches everywhere.” Everywhere except Seattle…

Dave Bruskas to Join Mars Hill Albuquerque in January

The pieces of the puzzle are falling into place.
Today, according to a source in the church,  it was announced at Mars Hill Albuquerque today that lone remaining Mars Hill executive elder Dave Bruskas will join the church as teaching pastor.
Bruskas was slated to be interim teaching pastor at the new Bellevue Church (Mars Hill Bellevue), but apparently things have changed there.
Bruskas church, City on a Hill, was the first out of state church to join Mars Hill. Looks like he is going home.
Along with Mark Driscoll and Sutton Turner, Bruskas presided over several controversies that came to light over the past year. Bruskas has yet to give an account of his part in the Global Fund, the scheme to use church money to elevated Mark Driscoll’s book Real Marriage to the New York Times Bestseller list, and the awareness of “persistent sin” against Driscoll.
If I attended Mars Hill ABQ, I would have a lot of questions.
 

Robert Morris at Gateway Church: I Know How to Build a Healthy Church

Since Robert Morris snubbed his nose at the elders of Mars Hill Church, I have been curious about the third largest church in the nation. As noted earlier today, sources within Gateway and Mars Hill have indicated that Driscoll may be on the way back. If he does make a come back, Driscoll might credit Morris. Morris told his pastors’ conference that he has been advising Driscoll and he has an obvious track record. In fact, Morris boasted about this ability last night to his church. Watch:

Morris claims divine revelation to make a point that the Bible already makes. Why should we believe him? Not because of the teaching of the faith but because he has built a big church. I suspect former Mars Hill folks will hear something familiar in this. The leaders hear from God and the proof is in the success of the church.
