Mark Driscoll

hahaha guys so i'm in Seattle right now for Mars Hill's worship conferance. I heard Driscoll speak last night and he talked about different sins that we fall into without knowing it and he mentioned focusing on your family. he spoke about how its a sin to "Focus on the Family" instead of God. Driscoll said, if you focus on God only then will you really focus on your family. buttt i'm pretty sure Driscoll is going to get some heat for shot he took at the "Focus on the Family" crusade. so look for that in the future or whenever it gets on youtube

I don't know that I've ever called it outright a sin but Dawn and I have been saying for the last few years that we don't want to "Focus on the Family". I just can't get excited about raising good kids so that they will grow up and Focus on the Family and raise good kids who will raise good kids who will raise good kids.

It just makes me want to jump out of the hamster wheel and go focus on someone else's family. Or be a family for someone who doesn't have one. Or something...

I'm sure the organization Focus on the Family is probably cool. I haven't ever paid much attention to them but I am mostly disappointed in believers who don't see that God calls us outward not inward. Sure, we need to give ourselves and our families proper care but we are not the end goal. What do you all think?
