Driscoll on the Emerging Church

Mark Driscoll, founding pastor of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, WA, addressed the Convergent conference, hosted by Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, in September 2007. Driscoll has had friendships with many of the leading figures in the emerging church movement over the last decade, and characterized his address to the conferees as the first time he had spoken so frankly about the personalities involved in the movement. His address is lengthy, but worth the investment if you have the time and are interested in the subject.

Unfortunately, the direct download link on the conference website appears broken, so the only way to point you to it is via the podcast channel for SEBTS. You can find their podcasts here. (Once in the podcast directory, look for "Convergent Conference" in the name, and then Mark Driscoll in the Artist column.) You will need iTunes to download the message.

In the coming days, we will point you to some of the many responses this address generated. It all makes for a very interesting read.
