Were these possible product spin-offs from Peasant Princess? Tough to know for sure since Driscoll has recycled so much material from his Song of Songs teaching over the course of fifteen years

What's the point of this post? What is it trying to acommplish? Radical Reformission was his first book in 2004, and the LoveLife stuff was material he was teaching at marriage conferences through The Hub up until Real marriage came out, in fact the Real Marriage tour was originally another LoveLife tour until the book came out.
Seriously, are you now just looking for anything Driscoll related and hoping it turns into scandal? What is the point of this blog post?
Oh look! The cover says Mark Driscoll is a #1 New York Times best selling author. Maybe this is the reissuing of his old book with the NYT stamp of approval on the cover. On a slightly amusing note, I saw that the author bio for "Reformission" says that he's also the author of "Radical Reformission", although they appear to actually be the same book. What's that he said about "reaching out without selling out" again? I love irony.
Reaching out without Selling out had nothing to do with anything financially, it had to do with reaching culture without selling out our biblical beliefs. It's a good book with some great thoughts and just because a pastor writes a book doesn't mean he's a sell out. Look I get why this blog exists, but isn't it getting sad at this point?
Reissuing your old material with the new masthead of #1 NYT bestseller that was achieved fraudulently might be considered selling out. If not for money then for fame, influence, and status.
Can someone find out who owns the copyright for Reformission? The 2004 book was copyrighted to Mars Hill Church, wasn't it? What about Reformission?
Based on the listing, it looks like the reprint came out in 2013, BEFORE the NYT scandal. Driscoll mentioned in his apology letter that he was working with all his publishers to get that removed from the books, but if this book was re-released before that, that would explain why it still says it. Plus Driscoll hasn't worked with Zondervan for a long time, so that could also be an issue.
Look, I get what this blog is for, but there are things that deserve to be blogged about, like plagerism etc...but this blog seems, and I could be wrong, it could just be a couple of bad posts, but it seems like WtH is falling into a trap of determination against Driscoll, which one could interpret as sin itself, filling with pride and attacking another Christian over every little thing going on with Mars Hill whether it deserves news or not. Again, I don't think or know if this is the case, it just seems like it could be.
Reformission just looks like it's a reprint of Radical Reformission...it has the same Chapter titles and sub titles and everything.
