Mark Driscoll on Manhood


This is Mark Driscoll. He is one of the pastors at Mars Hill Church in Seattle. Even though he identifies with evangelicals, he's received a lot of criticism because he spends a lot of his ministry time talking about sex. Even so, he seems to me to be a genuine follower of Jesus Christ and definitely has a clue about the truth. In this particular clip, he begins by talking about John the Baptist and how he went from boyhood to manhood without any intervening adolescence. He sees adolescence as a modern invention that keeps boys from becoming men and I think he's on to something. Please watch and listen. See if you don't find yourself agreeing with his message.
