From what I understand there are some out of state people who provide what he calls wise counsel. Mark doesn’t have any elders holding him in check. We pick up our discussion with the question of governance and oversight at Mark Driscoll’s church. Also joining me is Ben Eneas, a former member of the security team at the Trinity Church. Well again, joining me today is Chad Freese, a retired marine and former head of security for The Trinity Church.
That’s because the owners there-Dan and Kurt Marquardt-are men of integrity. Marquardt is a Buick GMC dealership where you can expect honesty, integrity, and transparency.

Plus, the school offers more than 60 majors, great leadership opportunities, and strong financial aid. Judson is a top-ranked Christian University providing a caring community and an excellent college experience.
And you’ll hear some crazy stories-like the time the man providing wise counsel for Trinity instructed Chad to pay parking tickets with gift cards likely donated for single moms.īut before we dive in, I’d like to thank the sponsors of this podcast, Judson University and Marquardt of Barrington. You’ll also hear about the web of celebrity pastors that run cover for Driscoll and platform his ministry. This is a scale that Mark Driscoll uses to rate staff and members. And in this episode, you’ll hear about the spectrum of trust. I’m Julie Roys.Īnd joining me for part two of Inside The Driscoll Cult are Chad Freese, the former head of security at The Trinity Church-and Ben Eneas, a former member of Trinity’s security detail.Ĭhad and Ben say Trinity is not a church it’s a cult. Welcome to The Roys Report-a podcast dedicated to reporting the truth and restoring the church. It’s all about Mark-and control and money. MARK DRISCOLL, JULIE ROYS, BENJAMIN ENEAS, CHAD FREESEĪccording to Mark Driscoll, The Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Arizona, is all about Jesus. It’s a story that once again exposes the devastation caused by the evangelical industrial complex or celebrity machine. And in this episode, you’ll discover why the problem of Mark Driscoll is not an isolated story of a single abusive and self-serving pastor. They also give a behind-the-scenes look at the Christian executive who runs the business operations at the church-and the crazy things he instructs church staff to do.Ĭhad and Ben also tell about the celebrity pastors that continue to platform Driscoll. In a bizarre example, Chad and Ben share how staff members, and even church parishioners, are covertly rated on their loyalty to Mark Driscoll. On this edition of The Roys Report, Chad Freese, the former head of security at The Trinity Church, and his former colleague, Ben Eneas, reveal more details about the cult of personality and family business that Driscoll has cultivated. Even after Part 1 of Inside the Driscoll “Cult,” two former members of Driscoll’s security detail have much more to share.
He later sort of apologized, telling Us Weekly (via Just Jared) that he's "secretly jealous of her" and wanted his "face on a lunchbox, too!" All we know is that $50,000 doesn't actually buy a lot of crystals, so it doesn't seem worth it.From his shuttered church in Seattle to his “cult” in Arizona, author and celebrity pastor Mark Driscoll has taken pastoral entitlement, bullying, and control to new lows. He went direct-to-tabloids with his nasty retaliation, dubbing her "a famous troll" and "the less cute twin" in Us Weekly (via Gawker). Pratt's photo launched an all-out war that got him eviscerated on the Late Show with David Letterman by Mary-Kate's passive aggressive jabs. By the looks of the picture, MK was either trashed or startled by a camera being flashed in her face. Yes, the Olsen twins went to a normal - albeit " small, private" - high school, which was later discovered to not actually be Pratt's high school anyway, but we digress. In a 2007 Details profile of Pratt's former best friend Brody Jenner (via People), Montag's future husband claimed to have "made $50,000 by selling a photograph" of Mary-Kate "drinking at a party." At the time, it was said they went to the same high school.
