The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill, and "Deconstruction"

This video is a personal reflection on The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill podcast, hosted by Mike Cosper and produced by Christianity Today. The podcast tells the story of Mars Hill Church under the leadership of Mark Driscoll. I use the podcast as an occasion to reflect on the broader phenomenon of spiritual deconstruction in the church and particularly in evangelical culture.

In the video I recommend the ministry of Diane Langberg for helping people understand abuse and trauma: https://www.dianelangberg.com/
