How to Become a Volunteer for a Fake Abortion Clinic

Lord Snow Presides… Over Mark Driscoll’s Bad Advice About Marriage. (#18)

Mark Driscoll’s blog has been a treasure trove lately, as he struggles to resolve one of his religion’s greatest failings: its defective and faulty teachings about marriage.
