I think Hayley blogged this earlier in the year. It’s got a bit of Arminian theology in it… but that’s cool… What happens when Graffiti and The Gospel collide? Features – DJ Promote and Fasm. Produced by – The Billy Graham Evangelistic Assoc. to paint the Gospel in graffiti form for a video project dubbed “Bridge to Life”.
Saludos amigos! It’s been a big week on DMDC. Big hits from people searching for Michael-Guglielmucci (bad news) and Mark Driscoll (good news). I’ve been encouraged this week to keep trusting and proclaiming Jesus. If you’ve stumbled onto this blog and don’t know Jesus, christianity.net.au might help to answer some of your questions. In other big news, I will be pulling on the goal keepers gloves for the first time in 2 years in our soccer semi-final… almost as noteworthy as Mark Bosnich’s comeback! Peaceout.

Mark Driscoll spoke yesterday afternoon at Moore Theological College. He spoke on Gospel Proclamation (1 Corinthains 9:16-18) and Gospel Contextualisation (1 Corinthians 9:19-22). It was GOLD! He didn’t pull any punches in his critique of Sydney Anglican/ Moore College culture, yet he was forthright in his praise of the commitment the College and Diocese has to the Bible.
He spoke about two main teams in contemporary churches: Really Cool Heretics and Boring Bible Guys. He said there’s a third option: The not-quite-so-boring Bible Guys. Here are 3 things he said about how to be the third option in thinking through gospel contextualisation:

Driscoll on the Coast night #1. Wow! What an incredible night!! Mark Driscoll spoke on Lovin’ the Coast. He spoke on Exodus 20 (+ a stack of other Bible references) and the 10 commandments. He spent his whole time on #1 (You shall have no other gods before me) and #2 (you shall not make for yourself an idol…) specifically speaking about Idolatry and contrasting it with worship. The brilliant thing that Mark did was accurately diagnose the cultural context of the Central Coast.
As a non-Central Coast resident, he spoke about what he observed about the area. He summarised the idol of the Coast as the Idol of Comfort. This is our god. The Central Coast has a great love for the creation, but no love for the Creator. In the end, idolatry is really at the root of all sin.
