Our mission is to encourage, empower, and inspire people to live a life that Blesses God, in accordance with His word. As the Psalmist proclaims, "Bless God in the great congregation, the Lord, O you who are of Israel's fountain" (Psalm 68:26 ESV), and "Every day will I bless Thee; and I will praise Thy name forever and ever" (Psalm 145:2 KJV). Just as Simeon, after encountering Jesus, "took him up in his arms and blessed God" (Luke 2:28 ESV), we seek to lead others in a life of stewardship, relevant engagement, and practical living that honors and blesses the Lord.

We just saw a bishop get stabbed and pray for his assailant and forgive him. But this pastor cannot let this go. “You will know them by their fruit”

[johnmcdonough]

This is what happens when you take your minstry off Jesus and place it on yourself. Get back to the bible verse by verse. America doesnt need entertainment it needs Jesus.

[djshaug]

It's supposed to be a church not a circus. Get rid of the gimmicks.

[vanreichelderfer]

What does a man swallowing swords and taking off his shirt and going up a pole have to do with church? This nonsense should never be in the church! The pastor that allowed this to go on should be ashamed of himself and apologize to his congregation!

[andragreene]

Mark was 100% right for calling out this shameful act and saying something is wrong in John’s church.

[DanielKG]

I think John had his ego wrecked by the call out. This was Johns attempt to publicly do the same to Mark. John has all the red flags 🚩 of a narcissist and manipulator to me personally in the way he is handling the situation.

[MrMcGuck]

Screaming Matthew 18 while then publicly blasting private conversations sounds like hypocrisy to me.

[WakeUpAmerica]

The pride and arrogance of John Lindell in this message is breathtaking.

[TinaAM]

I showed my 18 year old son the opening performance/ act without sound- he said why are you showing me a male stripper perform in front of other men? I then told him that it was the opening of a Christian men’s conference. He couldn’t believe it. I had to actually prove it was a men’s Christian conference- he was shocked and said why would they do that as it seemed evil to him. - I would not show it to our 14-year-old our 16-year-old. I do not follow either of these Pastors and have nothing for or against either of them. All I am saying is that someone totally devoid of any of the politics - our 18 year-old observed it and thought it was evil and challenged me to prove that it was actually a Christian men’s conference when I told him what it was.

”Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.“
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬ ‭

This John guy.... Calls out Mark for him publicly rebuking the Jezebel spirit; but then rebukes him publicly himself. That is a perfect example of hypocrisy. Shame on this behaviour

[Mannie.Simeon]

Meanwhile the bishop Mar Mari gets literally stabbed and responds lovingly and graciously.

[LeafsFan-qhum]

Thats so cringe that John had a public call of repentance for Mark. I still think Mark is right about what he said. Lindell is being weird.

[goforgold]

One guy came out as humble, Christian and truthful. The other came out as being arrogant, revengefull and full of himself

[Patty-]

They wanted "stronger men" until a strong man exposed the darkness. Careful what you wish for!😂

[OttoTheGermanShepherd]

Isn't John the one who was originally saying that matters should be handled privately between believers but then here he goes putting private conversations on public blast for his congregation? What a hypocrite.

[mattmoeller]

If Alex, the performer, is truly a Christian, then someone might want to tell him that there are things he needs to fix to not look like his former occupation.

[emmanuellovesjessi]

If Mark is crazy, then yall havent met my Jesus! Christ would have ripped that pole out from the sanctuary

[Alessandra-echr]

Lindell’s response confirmed the presence of a Jezebel spirit. Matthew 18 is about when a brother sins against you personally. A man stripping his shirt off actually is a sin against the entire congregation who saw him and thus addressing Lindell only would not have met the criteria for Matthew 18 to apply. The performer sinned against all the attendees, but Lindell knew he was on the itinerary. The shepherd (Lindell) failed to protect the flock in his care from one of the most common ways the enemy tries to attack men.

[happygrammyd]

Watching the video of Lindell, I saw a narcissist taking on the praise of man rather than a pastor gently and accurately curating the Word of God. He defended himself. He defended his family. He defended his choices. Not once did he show the humility required of a true pastor to look into the issue that began this firestorm. This seductive, Buddha worshipping man (though talented) had no place in a worship sphere. Driscoll did not call out Lindell, he called out the act. Lindell got his pride hurt. Lindell responded accordingly. In a very ungodly manner. Like a narcissist. He was not loving Mark. He was not loving his congregation. He was loving himself.

[humblewatchman]

Going public with those private texts, calls, and messages is evident enough of a lack of wisdom. It’s so sad to see that church, and now the broader church thanks to the internet, sucked into divisiveness. It’s better to walk away from all of this than to be absorbed by it and assist in stirring the pot. The pole performer was wrong. And this public display was wrong. God help our love not to grow cold as lawlessness abounds.
