    I was driving home from Texas last summer with my 25 year old son and he turned on episode 12 of this podcast. He said "Have you heard any of this?"

    Christianity Today put together this Podcast of the Rise and Fall of Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill. Of course I had heard of it. But in preparation for the podcast, Mike Cosper of CT met with Sutton Turner, one of the elders of Mars Hill, and was provided with all of his documents of every meeting he ever had with Driscoll and records of meetings with the elders and others.

    It is absolutely eye-opening. Get some strong coffee and listen. I could not stop after one episode.

    Did a double take for a moment.
    Up here in Central NY - our local Christian Radio station is owned by
    Mars Hill Radio - (which is high atop Onondaga Hill!)

    I'm seem to be losing touch with the latest changes in the US. Back in my day, Seattle was in Washington. ;)

    Good to know. It is fascinating. It shows how the power of one man's personality can destroy many people's faith.
