The Back Row Morning Show

About This Episode

Mike Cosper and Christianity Today have recently wrapped up one of the most popular Christian podcasts in history chronicling Mark Driscoll and the story of his former church – Mars Hill. This tale is quite the cautionary one, raising a lot of concerns that Churches, leaders, and every Christian should think about before they are faced with them in their own lives.
