I saw this article and thought it was very interesting and informing. Why am I posting this on here you ask? Well I have actually listened to over 50 of Pastor Mark's sermons in the past 7-9 weeks and I would say he has impacted and inspired me and the way I think,lead and teach.
I know a lot of people that have heard of him feel he is too edgy and irreverent in a lot of ways but I love his coarseness and blunt approach. The greatest thing of all is, he doesn't get up in the pulpit and pass along some formula or new way of doing things. He points everything he teaches to Christ. Whether it be Old Testament or New, Christ is at the center of his message.
How refreshing in a time of preachers preaching to itchy ears!
Love him or hate him, Mark Driscoll is helping people meet Jesus in one of America's least-churched cities.

Mark Driscoll looks no different than he does any other day. He's wearing the hip pastor uniform—blue jeans and an untucked shirt with the top two buttons undone. Yet he speaks in a subdued tone that hints at wear and tear.
He begins his talk about lessons learned as a church planter with common-sense advice about how pastors can blow off steam. Driscoll, 36, plays T-ball with his three sons or feeds ducks with his two daughters. Hardly the stuff that provokes raging blog debates and church pickets. As Driscoll's Mars Hill Church in Seattle has grown to 6,000 members in 11 years, quiet moments like this with his family have preserved some of his sanity.
