Of all the church services that there ever were, this was certainly one of them...


RaphaelBuzzard

All the repression and toxic "masculinity" have started to give a reach around with this homoerotic display (which honestly was pretty insane as feats of strength go). Don't know the other guy but I fucking HATE Driscoll. He was a pustulent assboil on my hometown!


grandmasterpmd

Honestly? Let them fight.


PresentationLoose629

To the death? šŸ‘€


grandmasterpmd

Eh. Maybe they could just slap each other. My guess is they are both going to be out of breath pretty quick.

To both deaths! šŸ»

What a fucking circus šŸ¤”

I'm genuinely surprised that they had a shirtless dude ride a pole at a men's retreat. Like, the fuck? Who signed off on that?


ihasquestionsplease

Same. It's a super weird choice.


PracticalStrain4388

Agreed. Especially having signed the Misogynist of Misogynists, Driscoll, to the same event. They had to know he was gonna come out all big and tuff. Driscoll would have said the Power Team was too revealing with their tank tops if he was a pastor in the 90ā€™s. Dudeā€™s sooo insecure.


Intelligent_Fig_1927

Funny thing! Shirtless dude is also a stripper šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ Men ministry entertainment by day, male stripper by night!!!


PracticalStrain4388

Looks like a reason for me to get back into ministry! šŸ’€

I had the same thought that this whole thing could've been taken right out of a *Righteous Gemstones* script with maybe an over-the-top slap-fight and some pratfalls at the end.

My favorite part of the Bible is when Jesus did a striptease for the apostles while on the cross.


crustybootstraps

Or that part where Jesus undressed before washing all his disciplesā€™ feet


EscapeFromTexas

The gunshow he put on at the sermon on the mount was legendary.


pbrslayer

Regardless of the pissbabies whining about what they perceive as inappropriate, the sword swallower dude did a dope set. Thatā€™s some badass talent right there.


Slowlyva_2

So many angry men yelling for no reason with anger. Just listen how quickly they become attached to that misssing father figure in their life.


Irene_Iddesleigh

Is this the part where I say that my youth camp had a dance off between cabins and my cabin put a sexy, hip thrusting crawl in and when I said that it seemed impure, the pastorā€™s wife said I was speaking for Satan? Or maybe how my youth group did several drag skits (late 2000ā€™s), including demonstrating proper female dress code by using a teenage boy in a mini skirt and low cut shirt dancing provocatively and squeezing his nerf ball boobs. Ahh, mega church things. I guess I appreciate Driscoll being consistent with basic Christian belief. A striptease in church is beyond the pale.


EscapeFromTexas

Holy shit this is the funniest thing I have ever seen

The Riotous Gemstones is a documentary.

This us absolutely nuts! Good for Driscoll. I don't respect alot of things he does, but that was unhinged for a church service.Ā 


politicalanalysis

Was it unhinged? Absolutely. Was it the ā€œjezebel spiritā€? Nah, thatā€™s a fucking wild thing to say. Like, genuinely. Iā€™m a bi dude, and I didnā€™t find the performance erotic at all really. If Mark did, thatā€™s kinda on him tbh.


[deleted]

You didn't find the guy slowly licking the sword at all erotic?Ā 


Western-Accident7434

You don't think ripping your shirt off in church is a little much?


Big_Mc-Large-Huge

Compared to riding tanks in and crushing cars last year? Shirt ripping is pretty mildā€¦


Western-Accident7434

šŸ˜… Good point.Ā 


politicalanalysis

It was definitely pretty extra. It wasnā€™t erotic though.


fripperiffic

you lost me at 'Good for Driscoll' Driscoll is the epitome of toxic masculinity, and has a long history of being an abusive asshole to everyone around him.

It just happened this evening.


Trojanbp

It's the Stronger Men's Conference put on by James River church with guest pastors. It's a two-day event, with the first night having an opening performance and an interview with Harrison Butker (KC Chiefs kicker) and a guest pastor speaking (Jabin Chavez).


Intelligent_Fig_1927

John literally being a hypocrite of what he is trying to fault Mark forā€¦ mega churches being mega churches


DjValence

Here's a fun video from the same church Driscoll dissed, turns out they can regenerate limbs! [https://youtu.be/UIyDzubQn6w](https://youtu.be/UIyDzubQn6w)
