Why do Christians supposedly not mourn? Dr Terri Daniel explains that the idea of a 'secret club' with heavenly hope can lead to spiritual bypassing, avoiding real grief over lost loved ones—especially those deemed 'unworthy'. #ChristianGrief #SpiritualBypassing #HeavenlyHope #Theology #GriefSupport

$Four and Twenty Blackbirds: Inside Mars Hill and the Trial of Paul Petry (with Rob Thain Smith) Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-hfmfg-1b3314b This conversation features Rob Thain Smith — author of Four and Twenty Blackbirds: The Trial of Paul Petry, the Beginning of the End of Mars Hill Church. We discuss the rise and fall of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, led by controversial pastor Mark Driscoll. Rob shares his first-hand experience as a long-time member who was in the process of becoming an elder when the churchs governance crisis began. The central conflict we explore is the 2007 bylaw changes at Mars Hill that consolidated power away from a plurality of 24 elders and into Driscolls hands. Rob recounts the controversial trial of elder Paul Petry, who was fired and put through a deeply flawed, unjust internal process for minor infractions — largely because he posed a threat to Driscolls growing authority. Rob argues that the real failure of Mars Hill was not Driscoll alone, but the 24 elders who, despite knowing the trial was wrong, unanimously voted against Petrie out of fear and self-interest. The conversation also covers the churchs culture of shunning, Driscolls continued platform at his Arizona church Trinity, and Robs motivation for writing the book — to offer a more nuanced, leadership-focused account than the widely listened-to Christianity Today podcast series about Mars Hill.
