When WTH sent me an email with the link to these new and very incrimination findings, I emailed him back.
I'd like to share with you some of what I wrote.
I've known something wasn't right with the man for some time. Early on I found precious few people who agreed with me and felt utterly compelled to sound the alarm. Now I've met you, TWW, and see the work of Throckmorton. I see that I'm not only not alone, there are more informed and more qualified people to speak on this. I'm almost feeling sorry for Driscoll now. I'm sorry that he got away with so much for so long and now it's all falling down around him. He appears to have developed no quality tools to deal with this collapse in any reasonable way. It's just more of the same schtick. But this time nearly everyone is seeing right through the deception. I'm saying all of this to let you know, I so appreciate you speaking out reasonably, informatively, and objectively. You have been a rock when I've thrown up my hands in a tizzy wondering what the heck is wrong with everybody, being schmoozed so easily by this guy. I'm going link this because it is just another amazing example of the character flaws in Driscoll. These flaws should have disqualified him years ago. Yes, I blame Driscoll. I also blame Grace a little bit. She should not have just rolled over and let him do these things. But mostly I blame the church for have ZERO levels of discernment. We are to be a shrewd as serpents and harmless as doves. Not stupid and enabling as sheep who have had frontal lobotomies.
Now, to the link of incriminating evidence that proves, once again, that Driscoll should have never been allowed to pastor a church:
Driscoll LIES about who was doing the premarital counseling in the early years of Mars Hill.
Honestly, I'm really starting to feel sorry for him. This doesn't mean I give him a pass or think he shouldn't be called into account for everyone he has hurt. But gosh darn it. After a while, watching someone make so many bad decisions, it just becomes painful to watch and I'm about ready to look away now.

Mara, this will probably interest you. It is an ex-worker at Mars Hill saying why he left.
