Bonus Episode – The Mars Hill Legacy: Mark Driscoll’s Toxic Cult of Personality (with Dr Warren Throckmorton)

August 16, 2021

This special bonus episode features returning guest, Dr Warren Throckmorton. Though he identifies as a Christian himself, Dr Throckmorton has long been an outspoken activist and blogger for what he clearly sees as abuses within evangelicalism.

In the current Christianity Today podcast series on the collapse of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, and Mark Driscoll’s role in it, his name comes up–as he was one of the early voices to speak out against the problems inherent within Mars Hill.

Not only do we discuss the Mars Hill saga, and its ultimate implosion, we also delve into the concept that Driscoll, in many ways, fits a classic ego-driven cult leader–and his current church in Scottsdale, AZ, features even more disturbing elements of cult psychology and high-control groups.
