Mark Driscoll at Desiring God 08 on God's use of tough words. Yes, it's long! Maybe you can do what I did and watch it in 15 minute bites. It's well worth it.
Quick outline: Driscoll says we should:
1. Feed the Sheep
2. Rebuke the Swine
3. Shoot the Wolves
4. Bark at the Dogs
5. Pray for the Shepherds
I will NEVER forget this message ever. Every minister and church leader should watch this.
God is love, and Jesus loves you, but neither one of them is always nice.

I made it thru......some highlights
"You might offend people if you say this - since the guy who first said it got murdered....ya think?"
"My favorite religion is not being religious" - man, can I relate to that - and it makes me just as religious as those I would condemn.
