Scandals and perverts in leadership, as this man, bring a great deal of shame to the name of Christ. Not only does Christ's good name get smeared but the body of Christ suffers greatly. :/
I don't know much about this man and what he teaches but I can say this much it's very unfortunate that another high profile "christian" man has commited this sin. It does a great deal of harm to the body of Christ and brings a great deal of shame to His Name.

Rocks were freely available on every street corner. Obviously it was the inanimate objects fault.
I have a child who has a lot of energy (and no junk food is not a big part of her diet). I know that if we were to put her into public school or take her to a doctor they would label her as "adhd" . And just for the head shakers, she recieves biblical discipline. My point is, is that yes my child has a lot of energy but she's only four. Energy is to be expected. Medicine is not neccessary. And what Penny wrote here speaks volume " they need to be outside, on a farm, doing work, enjoying nature. outside. this is how God made them. to eat real food. " Opening the doors and letting her run around outside or taking nature walks is a huge help in helping her get her energy out.
Driscoll is perverted. I feel bad for his wife and children. This is the example of a "godly man" he sets before them. Disgusting.
1517, a man should not act like a woman nor make his voice so soft that he sounds like one. At the same time, his speech is to be seasoned with grace. Driscoll's filth is not a good example. Think Paul, Jesus, Charles Spurgeon, Jason Cooley....all manly yet their speech is decent.
Lady Ozmliad, God provided y'all with a free science lesson. Sounds like a good day
Well church is the body of Christ and fellowship is for believers and their edification. Now evangelism, that's for the lost. Notice Scripture says GO not HAVE THEM COME. It's to take place somewhers other then the fellowship of the saints. Question, how did he share the gospel when he was riding a bull? Have you ever seen a bull ride? The rider is being thrown around. It appears this man just made God look "cool" and by doing so blasphemed His name. It's bread and circus.
Some odd years back when I was in he youth program the topic of tattoos came up. My youth minister said, "What do I think of tattoos?" And then he proceeded to lift his shirt and turn around to show a back full of "christian" tattoos. Very classy
Yep! Oh the damage that can be done through such a little screen. Irreversible damage. But of course there is nothing new under the sun and as Unprofitable Servant said it is just a tool. The heart is the issue. But it does seem some tools make it easier to do some things. Anyways the comments here were great.
