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 Lamberg for helping  people understand abuse and trauma: https://www.dianelangberg.com/  Learn more about the podcast here: https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/podcasts/rise-and-fall-of-mars-hill/
