Well being an Aussie, and not a rich one, I never thought I’d see the day when I can get to hear Mark Driscoll preach live.  Well not until today anyway when I got an email from my Pastor asking if I’d be interested seeing Driscoll in Sydney on August 27.

Is the Pope Catholic? Don’t fundamentalists vote Republican?  Sorry I just finished watching “Jesus Camp” - another story for another post.  I jumped onto the website and booked tickets right away as Driscoll’s main meeting in the mountains just out of Sydney was sold out way before i even knew he was coming over.

Driscoll is speaking at the Sydney Entertainment Centre and the details are here. “Burn Your Plastic Jesus” is an attempt to shake off the stranglehold weird and whacked out so called Christians have on forming the perception of Jesus to the masses.  Again after just watching Jesus Camp, I think we have a lot of work to do to convince people our Lord is not a complete lunatic.

And so in the middle of Michael Buble, Chris Rock and The Wiggles, at the Sydney Entertainment Centre, Driscoll will talk about Jesus.  Got to love it!

Anyway, below is the promo clip for the event and below that is a cool little video where Driscoll rants against religion.  Enjoy and if you’re an Aussie, I’d love to see you there and meet up!
