Case History of Mark Anthony Stephens: A Pattern of Conflict and Contempt
July 30, 2024š āCoffee With Mark: The Gospel According to Grievanceā
**š Coffee With Mark: The Gospel According to Grievance (Joann Edition) **
Welcome back to Markās Ministry of Misdirection, where no perceived slight goes unpunished, no scripture goes unmisquoted, and every critic becomes a āfalse prophetāāespecially if they lived in his house when things fell apart.



Todayās sermon?
Markās latest tirade, this time featuring Joann Carpenter ā the woman who not only endured Markās chaotic exit from Toriās life but who also became the target of his year-long smear campaign on social media.
Letās rewind:
Joann was Toriās houseguest, peacefully residing there, when Mark lost controlāshoving her, spitting in her face, and demanding she leave the house (which, we note again for the record, was Toriās house⦠not Markās).
Fast-forward a year and what do we find?
Mark still canāt let it go ā posting blurry, poorly written Facebook āexposĆ©sā accusing Joann of being a āfalse prophetā who charges $275 for a blood DNA cleansing.
(Itās honestly impressive that he manages to keep finding new ways to say the same thing over and over, just with worse punctuation every time.)
The pattern is unmistakable:
1ļøā£ Post vague spiritual warnings about āwolves and goats infiltrating the flock.ā
2ļøā£ Quote scripture wildly out of context.
3ļøā£ Accuse Joann by name (because, naturally, this is about his pure ministry, not personal vendettas).
4ļøā£ Proclaim that he is far too peaceful and holy to engage⦠while posting a wall of text so dense, chaotic, and poorly punctuated it could be used to test AIās ability to parse nonsense.
Signature Mark lines from this weekās masterpiece:
- āI will not waste another second on you!ā
Translation: āIām going to spend the next year degrading, berating, and deriding you on every platform I can.ā - āIām so peaceful and unconcerned!ā
Translation: āHereās 500 words mashed together into a single paragraph riddled with misspelled words, no punctuation, and frantic accusations.ā - āYou are obsessed with me!ā
Translation: āIāve posted about you nonstop for 12 months and will continue indefinitely.ā
And letās not overlook the stylistic brilliance here:
Markās rant is practically a stream-of-consciousness novella ā no punctuation where itās needed, punctuation where it doesnāt belong, and run-on sentences that could circle the globe.
Nothing quite says āIām calm and peacefulā like typing in a frenzied haze for hours at a time, all while declaring himself above it all.
The hypocrisy is breathtaking:
Mark claims Joann is out of context, obsessed, a liar, and a fraud ā all while refusing to acknowledge that heās the one dedicating significant chunks of his life to crafting these obsessive rants, blurring her photos, pasting accusations over her face, and dragging every Facebook friend into his one-man crusade.
⨠The moral of the story?
When Mark says heās too peaceful to waste time on someoneā¦
š„ You can bet a yearās worth of social media posts is about to follow.
