Brannon Howse: Aired August 31, 2011

Topic One: Hear the shocking audio of a very popular pastor by the name of Mark Driscoll saying that he has visions and sees things that have occurred in the past including rapes, molestations, and demonic activity. Driscoll claims this is a gift of discernment and that the Lord tells him things about people. Is this Biblical? Brannon explains why it is not. Topic Two: Some Kansas City prophets embraced by reformed charismatics? Topic Three: Why do some of these pastors think they need to wear Mickey Mouse t-shirts, dog chains and talk like a junior high student to attract a crowd? Are churches growing that have Godly men that act like adults and preach the Word of God in context? The answer is yes and the churches include many young families. Topic Four: John MacArthur warns of the reformed preachers that think just because they embrace reform theology they have a free pass to act like the world and embrace the culture. Brannon believes Pastors Mark Driscoll, John Piper, and Tim Keller are all examples of reformed pastors that Christians should avoid and he explains why. Brannon believes that many of today’s “popular” pastors don’t have the courage to call out the false teaching of their friends because they prefer to belong to the “club” and receive all the perks that go with going along with the group. Brannon believes the members of the “Gospel Coalition” are a perfect example as its members don’t seem to have the courage or conviction to call out Piper, Driscoll, and Keller for their theological error. Topic Five: Why do these pastors think they need to wear Mickey Mouse t-shirts and talk like a junior high student to attract a crowd? Are churches growing that have Godly men that act like adults and preach the Word of God in context? The answer is yes and the churches include many young families. Topic Six: MacArthur speaks of his shock that John Piper would invite Rick Warren to his Desiring God conference.
