Mark Driscoll Audio

In Genesis 28:10-22, Heaven visits earth as Jacob dreams of a ladder reaching to Heaven. In this story, Pastor Mark preaches that, though Jacob's circumstances don't necessarily change, his life changes because of an encounter with God, and a relationship with the God of his father and grandfather is started and strengthened.

In this sermon from Genesis 27 and the first part of Genesis 28, we see sibling rivalry at its worst in the story of Jacob and Esau when parents favor one child over another. Pastor Mark preaches on how family division can lead to family deception, devastation, and dispersion.

In light of the recent US Supreme Court overturn of Roe vs. Wade, Pastor Mark shares this topical sermon with 23 different Scripture verses giving reasons why true Christians must oppose abortion.

In this sermon from Genesis 26, Pastor Mark preaches on the need for men to lead their families and about generational blessing and cursing in the lives of Abraham and Isaac.

In this special Father's Day sermon, Pastor Mark preaches from Genesis 25 on the ways that descendants of Abraham both continued the race, carrying the baton of following Jesus and leading their families to follow Jesus, and dropped the baton, leading to future generations of tumultuous turmoil. In the end, he concludes that dads can make a difference, for good or bad, for generations.

In this sermon from Genesis 24, Pastor Mark shows how the story of Isaac and Rebekah is a great model for those who are wanting to get married or are coaching their own children in that season.

After 10+ chapters have been dedicated to the lives of Abraham and Sarah, Abraham lays his beloved wife to rest as we read the first funeral recorded in Scripture. As Pastor Mark preaches in this sermon from Genesis 22-23, we see in the marriage of Abraham and Sarah that the last day of our marriages are more important than the first.

In Genesis 21, it appears that, after Abraham and Sarah's promised son, Isaac, comes, life will settle down and they'll be able to enjoy this life that God has blessed them with. But, in Genesis 22, God puts Abraham to the ultimate test of faith and, spoiler alert, he passes the test, leading to blessing for not only him and his immediate family but future generations of his family, through which will ultimately come Jesus.

In Genesis 21, Abraham's promised son, Isaac, finally comes and the baby mama drama continues after he tried to take matters into his own hands and have a child with another woman. As is often the case with God, Pastor Mark shows that God blesses everyone in the story, despite the people and their actions, and that God is always the ultimate hero in every story.

In Genesis 20, Abraham gives his wife Sarah away, the second time we read about this type of action by Abraham in the book of Genesis. In this sermon, Pastor Mark teaches that, as Abraham continues to make a mess of his life, acting in fear rather than faith, God is faithful as He continues to save His people from themselves.

In this topical sermon for Mother's Day, Pastor Mark preaches on two mothers - Sarah and Hagar - both mothers to Abraham's children, one child of the promise (Isaac) and one child from Abraham trying to take things into his own hands and go against God's plan (Ishmael). With Galatians 4 as the backdrop for the sermon, Pastor Mark teaches that, from these two moms, we can learn how to have more grace-based homes (like Sarah) and less law-based homes (like Hagar).

In this sermon from Genesis 18-19, Pastor Mark shows that the same depravity that started in Sodom and Gomorrah has been prevalent throughout world history and continues into culture today. He concludes that Jesus will be the ultimate Judge and it's of critical importance for people to align themselves with Jesus' values rather than the world's to save themselves from the ultimate judgment that awaits.

In this slightly awkward passage in Genesis 17 about Abraham circumcising himself and his entire household, Pastor Mark points to the most important part of the story - that Abraham's covenant with God was cemented in this act and that God's priorities for our families are the same as His priorities have been for families since the beginning.

In this special Good Friday sermon, Pastor Mark gives 12 reasons why Jesus died for humanity, being crucified on the cross, dying in one of the worst possible ways, because He loved us so much.

The Good News of the gospel is that, after Jesus died and was buried, he resurrected from death three days later to save us and bring us back into eternal relationship with Him.
