The most controversial sermon I’ve ever preached, and I’m re-publishing it this afternoon. Tune in for the live rebroadcast right here on X 👊

Today’s as a good a day as any to step down from the pastorate since you’ve disqualified yourself. Go work with your hands, submit yourself to local godly leadership, and live a quiet life.

What part of Jesus' ministry did you interpret Him shouting at, and insulting, His followers? Genuinely wondering where you got the idea to be like that.

I remember that sermon when it came out. It was strong but needed. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I’m not sure your victims at Mars Hill need reminding of your time as their pastor.

This sermon was a pivotal moment for me as a man, father, and husband.

It was this video that made me realize you were a virtue signaling fraud.

I’m interested to hear the full context, but I do not understand the necessity to say “who the hell do you think you are?” from the pulpit.

I was in the back of the church the night of this sermon. The place was packed, majority was college kids from UW & SPU. For a lot of them, Mark was the father figure they desperately needed, so when he yelled “How dare you!” at the young men, it was electric. You could almost tell who was convicted by the Spirit in that moment from the visceral reactions in the crowd, like they’d been shot or electrocuted. I’m telling you, the Spirit of God was in the church that night, lives were changed that night. I was there for the first sermons he preached to us UW athletes on Saturday nights in the late 90s, and I was there at his last sermon at the Bellevue campus. Mark made a huge, POSITIVE, Kingdom-growing impact on an entire generation of Seattleites, myself included.

I remember this when it happened. Was great then and still is today. Soft weak Christian men cannot handle this. Pastor Mark is awesome. Preach on brother.
