A new podcast has been released which details the rise and fall of Mars Driscoll and the Mars Hill empire. Released by Christianity Today and hosted by Mike Cosper- the founder of Harbor Media and Director of podcasting for Christianity Today- this podcast covers the period from their founding in 1996 Seattle, where the novelty of the ‘cussing pastor’ had taken Christendom by storm, to their public implosion and now current status where history seems to be repeating itself.
The podcast draws upon “hundreds of hours of interviews with people who were part of Mars Hill. Some are serving in ministry or volunteering in churches. Some have migrated into other traditions. And some have left the faith altogether.”
Friom their onesheet description:
This podcast takes you inside the story of Mars Hill Church in Seattle – from its founding as part of one of the largest church planting movements in American history to its very public dissolution—and the aftermath that followed. You’ll hear from people who lived this story, experiencing the triumphs and losses of Mars Hill, knowing it as both an amazing, life-transforming work of God and as a dangerous, abusive environment. The issues that plague Mars Hill and its founder, Mark Driscoll — dangers like money, celebrity, youth, scandal, and power—aren’t unique, and only by looking closely at what happened in Seattle will we be able to see ourselves”

On the episode for December 28, 2020, JD is back from “vacation” and ready to talk polemics. After sharing the Gospel, JD launches into an explanation for why Albert Mohler got “Worst Christian of 2020” award from Protestia (he’s been sent a trophy with a goat atop, per our annual tradition). He then discusses numerous topics, including Jonathan Merritt RT’ing a poem and woman who claims that women are uniquely qualified to be a pastor because breastfeeding gives them cracked nipples (we kid you not). JD also gives an Ode to Ken Fryer, who passed away into glory. And then, JD answers some patron’s questions and explains why people missing church for COVID-19 should be disciplined.

Admittedly, this episode has nothing to do with flattening the curve (JD got distracted). He began the program with a run-down of the day’s polemics news including Christianity Today claiming that putting solar panels on your church are a ‘gospel issue’ and more on Carl Lentz. Then, he discusses “Fideism” and uses a young man in Arkansas as an example of Fideism gone crazy. Intellectualism (rationalism and reason) is not contrary to faith, and JD explains that a lot of the times it’s not that someone is stupid, per se, but that they have an epistemology problem. Then, he moves on to discuss Dave Miller at SBC Voices saying “anyone who tells you the SBC has a problem with liberalism is lying” and the president of Gateway Seminary calling Critical Theory a “conspiracy” like QAnon.
