Preaching, Authority, and the Local Church Defined

Skip Lost or American Idol this week and take the time to watch this vodcast. Warning: graphic descriptions of preaching and authority - not for church wimps.

Mark Driscoll at Resurgence 2008 challenges Pastors through his talk: Putting Pastors in Their Place. He challenges Pastors to preach the Word and gives a nice definition of what the church is at minute 48. He speaks about preaching, church discipline, shepherding the flock, the marks of a church, what a church is not, and challenges some of the emerging conceptions of the church being promoted today.

It’s worth the 74 minutes of your time.
