Rose Swetman is co-pastor of a church in the Seattle area. She has written this thoughtful and articulate open letter to Mark Driscoll which is also posted on her blog.
Dear Mr. Driscoll:
My name is Rose Swetman and I am the Co-Pastor of Vineyard Community Church in Shoreline, WA. This is an open letter and response to you concerning your recent blog post titled “Evangelical Leader Quits Amid Allegations of Gay Sex and Drug Use” and your next post, titled, “Ted Haggard Scandal 2.0.” I have followed and added some of my own responses to some of the recent flurry of reaction on various blog sites to some of your statements.

Abuse is often subtle and one of its effects tends to be that it causes confusion, so you are no longer sure what is ok and what isn’t. I’d like to share some links which in my opinion provide helpful information and support.
