I am glad you got involved, so that I could find you in the summer of 2015 and start watching the saga go down. This made it possible for you to cover the Gospel for Asia scandal. It has been a while since I heard any news on that. Is KP still hiding from Indian authorities in Texas?
As you revisit the Mars Hill saga you should check out Jennifer McKinney's book published through Oxford earlier this year: "Making Christianity Manly Again: Mark Driscoll, Mars Hill Church, and American Evangelicalism". She's a sociologist of religion at Seattle Pacific University and spent over a decade gathering data as MH grew in Seattle. It interrogates the gender theology of the church in ways the CT podcast pointedly avoids.
Totally off topic, but Dan Allender is a prick. Got my sister into believing she had repressed memories of sexual abuse resulting in multiple family members being accused of abuse in the most incredible circumstances. When my father requested of Allender that he help mediate and remedy the situation he completely refused resulting in untold heartache to numerous people and ruined the family lives of many people.
Thanks for the recommendation. My primary purpose will be a history of that year but one can't do that without commenting on what the church taught.

Unfortunately, links in your graphic are broken (or removed from Patheos). I didn’t realize he had plagiarized from Dr. Allender.
Thanks for reminding me about that. I will need to fix those. The removal from Patheos is another story in which Driscoll plays a role.
