FameRank: 6

"Mark A. Driscoll" is an Evangelicalism/evangelical Christian pastor, author, and the former pastor of Mars Hill Church, an influential megachurch in Seattle, Washington (state)/Washington. He resigned on October 14, 2014. In 1996, Driscoll co-founded Mars Hill Church, which as of March 2014 had grown to 14,000 members in five states and fifteen locations. He also founded The Resurgence, a theological cooperative, and co-founded several other parachurch organizations: Churches Helping Churches, the church planting Acts 29 Network, and The Gospel Coalition. He has written for the "Faith and Values" section of the Seattle Times, OnFaith, and the Fox News website. Driscoll has also authored a number of popular Christian books. Described as "an evangelical bad boy, a gifted orator and charismatic leader" and "hip yet hard-line", he is known for promoting "culturally relevant" yet theologically conservative Christianity. He favors "vintage" aesthetics and a "down to earth", yet at times "aggressive", preaching style.

The whole idea is to keep the game alive. There was give and take on both sides.

Our fans really stepped up for us; I thought they were great. I think we had about 3,500 fans there, and those who couldn't come still bought tickets and sent in money to help us. I feel really good about the whole experience.

Just because people are young doesn't mean they haven't been through hard times.

It's a very exciting day with the changes that have taken place at the stadium. We want our fans to show their support for our program by wearing green. We want the entire stadium in green.

Ken truly has all the qualities of a great Aggie and a great Ram. Ken was an extremely active student during his time at CSU. Whether it was his highly successful sports career, various extracurricular activities, leadership in student government or his involvement in Silver Spruce, Ken took full advantage of his time here.

Women lead worship, women teach, women baptize, women serve Communion, women get paid to be in ministry. We have hundreds of women from SPU who are leaders in our church.

To play the game in the state's best venue is exciting. Last time we were here, we packed it out, despite the lightning (which caused a 28-minute delay).
