'Miracles will not accomplish what love is designed to do. EVER.'
This hit me like a freight train. That is beautiful! Amen.
His new band is great
I’m 64 years old & I believe this message is for some of us in the senior crowd. Have been a Christian for a long time but always struggled with my place in “ Churchianity “. Listening to Tommy brought me to understanding my space & owning it. A few weeks ago , God brought my attention to Holy Name. It came up on my RUclips feed. Tommy’s & the band’s passion resonated so strongly with me! Yes, praise is at times so passionate it can be described as violent. David danced so before the Ark of Covenant! We will one day dance upon the head of injustice! Warrior on!
Thank you for sharing, brother. It touches my heart, the same way I felt when I learned about some church members making food for the local skaters at the skate park once a week. That's creating opportunities for gospel conversations and friendships with an unreached people group!
Legitimately am going to be a hardcore for Christ kid for the rest of my life
Totally, bro! Totally! :)
Amen! Enough with passive Christianity!!!
Sons Of Thunder represent!
Such a good interview. I love Sleeping Giant but didn’t really know a lot about Tommy. When Tommy said “Miracles can not accomplish what love was designed to do. If we are going to use power so we don’t have to love, we are missing it.” This hit me hard.
Authenticity, truth and sincere worship is what's important.
When he spoke about love over power and miracles... That touched me. Love is the only way.
Thank God for Tommy,I dig heavy Christian music.Much love from🇵🇬Will🙏🏽God bless
Woah. That kid's arm being healed gave me huge chills. Praise I Am.
He looks so happy!
I so appreciate this worship I'm a rocker chick and love Jesus and I dig this. This music will grab hold of the youth. God gave you that talent and you are using it for his glory and to witness and most importantly loving on HIM!
I’m fairly new to hardcore and I’m psyched that I just found out he’s the lead singer of sleeping giant. They’re one of my favorite bands
The whole thing about miracles and simply being there for others in love, Christ's love, speaks so much into the ministry and encounters I have with people.
I think supernatural is necessary but nothing beats a genuine love for others.
I have always been a metal head. I love all music, but metal does something for me that nothing else does. This is beautiful, and I love God, and this is it.....keep following what God has sent you here to do! God bless!!
I always feel so out of place at church when people are raising their hands and singing to the worship music like I’m “supposed” to do that or I don’t have unwavering love for God and Jesus. Not that they think at all, I guess in my own perception I feel that way. When I listen to just passionate true Christian metal music just pouring out their heart for Jesus I feel just a jubilant connection to them and tear up. I know what you mean.
This rocked me!! Thank you Jesus for Tommy Green! 🙌🏼
This was so good. Thank you for having Tommy on. Thank you, thank you Tommy for not backing down and being there for our youth. Thank you, thank you. You are so awesome and your love and heart for others was so felt. Praise the Lord for choosing you and choosing you to increase His Kingdom and for healing the broken hearts of so many. God Bless you and your family.
The passion behind the music can bring the joyful noise and the presence of the holy spirit but most do not understand that type of praise. I love Tommy Green for his spiritual walk with Christ. I saw Sleeping Giant back in 2012 in Dayton Ohio at Scream The Prayer Tour and Tommy preached in the middle of the set. Me and my son was so blessed by his passion.
I been into hardcore since hearing INTEGRITY "SEASONS..." in 1997. Tommy just described my life exactly. I was a throw away and thrash, punk, hardcore, death and black metal spoke to the sorrow and rage I felt. And when I found God I trusted the church and they just went and did to me what was done to me that got me into dark heavy intense music in the first place. I walked away from the church 10 years ago because they don't listen. But at the same time to refuse to hear is to reject. I'm not begging for love from anyone. I have more INTEGRITY than to beg from people who do a lot of love bombing and flapping their gums but they never actual listen. They don't care what you think or have to say. Love listens. "He who has ears let him hear..." God listens. If you have God on the inside you have an ear to listen. If you don't then you won't. And from my experience Pentecostals were by far the absolute worst. The level of love bombing Pentecostals do is straight up demonic. Exactly what narcissists do. IDEALIZE, DEVALUE, DISCARD. Make you feel so good about yourself, so loved and accepted, and then they'll turn around and make you feel the worst emotional pain you've ever felt. And you'll sitting there thinking "What did I do?" wondering what went wrong. And the answer is nothing. You didn't show all the signs of becoming a steady stream of narcissistic supply cause you dared to think for yourself and read scripture for yourself and you asked questions that made the preacher feel a little less "called" than he likes to portray himself. For me that is what the D.I.Y. ethic of punk instilled in me. To never let the group control my mind thoughts and cause me to cease to be myself but to be swallowed up into the herd mind of the collective. To ,me that is what demonic possession is. The spirit of the herd trying to control an individual mind body and soul. But for real, I would rather go worship God in a whorehouse than ever do it in a Pentecostal church or any other ever again. I have zero faith whatsoever in the church. Absolutely none. I will not bow to the herd. And I will not give up my power to it to do its will which is to possess the individual to bow to it and give up it's power to it. To erase individual perception of the inner self and replace it with "We are many."
About 3 years ago as of now, I was in this class (where no one was really doing anything) and I was on YT and I was thinking about how the band skillet was rumored to be Christian but no one was really sure. I decided to look up "christian rock" just to see if that genre actually existed, and not just as a lowkey "are they/are they not?" First song that plays in that playlist: Sleeping Giant - Tithemi
Ever since then SG has been my absolute favorite band. I'm constantly getting looks and whispers bc of how I'm dressed bc regardless of it, Jesus Christ is still my Lord and Saviour. Yeah I like Nirvana and SOAD, but those bands feel absolutely empty compared to SG; their songs have helped me to love and look for Christ more and feel included too
Love you Tommy GBU, miss Sleeping Giant 🙏🙏
Sooo good, thank you!! I see the need for lament but most have no love to see the hurts if this world, rock on.
I have never heard such a succinct explanation of "non-traditional" music and the ministry involved as this interview. I'm going to be sharing this with people I know that do not understand how this genre can possibly worship our Most Holy God and His Holy Name.
I feel the presence of the Lord as I listen to this interview.
Me too 🔥
God is with tommy, i felt christ presence when he prays at his shows
I feel the presence of the devil..HELP ME HELP ME IM GOING TO HELLL AAAAÄAAAAH
I dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost my account password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Braydon Gatlin Instablaster ;)
This was amazing! Thank you so much for hosting this conversation and highlighting Tommy Green. There so much truth shared. That love wins in the end. Real love, not love based off what one looks like. It’s revealed even religious prejudice I still have in my heart. Thank you again...
Sooo good! Tommy, I love your heart.
this interview has blessed me so much. thank you tommy for your service and will for interviewing!
i grew up on those songs and still listen to them, my passion is drumming for the lord, and metalcore is my main genre. thank you for this! because of your song tithemi i started listening to this whole genre that has pearls!
Amen to all of this. Tommy you are clearly following hard after Jesus. I don't like metal but I can see you love Jesus. I like Holy Name though 😊 looking forward to meeting you in eternity!
Excellent!
I have been blessed for all the things Jesus have done through you Tommy!!! thanks a lot and i love you!!! :D a big hug for you and Will! thanks for this interview
Incredible, informative, honesty. Thank you.
Brilliant!
Tommy preached a better sermon in this interview than almost any I've heard in the past 25 years.
Great interview.
THIS IS *******SO***** GOOD.
Hi, prettyface, i know this is like a dream to you.Thank you for being a fan.. Thanks May God bless you
Tommys out fishing for men. Doing phenomenal work for those who felt they had no way to the Lord.
Love you Tommy. I'll always support you in Jesus name .
Oh my gosh, I just heard about Holy Name. This video was suggested under one of their songs I've been listening to on repeat, Fall on Your Knees. And I couldn't vibe more with a lead singer/person/Jesus lover! I am pumped! Feeling amped up as it did in my peak hardcore/metal days. Everything he's saying about the hardcore scene, about pain & passion, about subculture, about how the mainstream tries to make Christianity exist in this very narrow box, the different types of praise, just everything about this is so refreshing & necessary. Jesus is for EVERYONE!
I'm only struggling with the point that I thought we were supposed to change gradually after Christ. It makes sense if it touches people where they are at first and that there should be forms of worship and praise that are more aggressive. But whether or not we should all stay that way is what throws me off. And, I don't know what to think in relation to the new age movement as it affects Christianity. I've been told that there is a danger of watering down the message with other things when you go dramatically too far towards the new age and the emergent church. If you have the gospel and present it accurately then it couldn't be the end of the world, but what about uprightness and growth? I don't know what throws me off I can't get rid of. I even like Christian metal, but then I get a little conflicted during the hardest parts of the genre
I love this!
I just pray that guy with the broken arm gets saved 😭
Amazing
Hi, prettyface, i know this is like a dream to you.Thank you for being a fan.. Thanks May God bless you
Right on too many pharisees this is why I serve at home it is lonely but it did not start with anyone for me except God but it's sad that religion rules the buildings here called church never realizing they are the church. I watch preaching on youtube everyday not just sundays. I was raised in a church that wanted us to burn our music crazy religious spirit wins more souls for hell than any other spirit. I have a book on Amazon under my pen name kimber renee called hells hallways totally inspired by Holy Spirit the religious would stone me for this book but it is my obedience and way to introduce ppl to the true Jesus not the religious Jesus the church has conjured. I am chasing the dream to be a successful author in the faith fight everyday for it. I would be flattered if you would check it out it's powerful and I wish all sinners could have this. Again keep using your craft and rocking JESUS!
God loves religion. Stop hating on his plan.
@@reggiejenkins6458 that's why the religious pharisees were only ones jesus spoke harshly to. Its not about religion it is about relationship. He did not die for us to have a religion but a relationship with him father and holy spirit and many many other things. Religion will never get you into heaven only Jesus will get you into heaven. Jesus said to the religious you all are like white washed tombs beautiful on outside but full of dead men's bones and every impurity. God rejected the religious prayer and honored the sinners prayer. I do not need a Bible lesson I have been in it everyday for over half my life and I have had RELATIONSHIP with God since I was 4.
@@christalkelley6382 the Pharisees were the only ones he spoke harshly to? You need to read your Bible dude. He literally even called his close followers Satan when they disagreed with him (telling Peter “Get behind me Satan!”). Mt 16:23
You’re also conveniently ignoring the fact that while Jesus did criticize the hypocrisy of the Pharisees, he also told his followers to honor and obey their instructions-
“So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.” Mt 23:3
Religion is just a term to describe a relationship with God/the supernatural. Claiming to “a follower of Jesus” or whatever other duncey modern American term is just a way to virtue signal that “I’m Christian, but I’m way better than all those other Christians”.
It’s judgemental, and obnoxious, and manipulative.
I'm ending this right now it's amazing to me how people even argue about the bible I was only responding I'm not judging I'm stating facts I grew up in a religious church and live in a religious town. The religious spirit quenches the holy spirit and I'm not a dude. Everyone has an opinion and obviously we disagree but we do have one thing in common we love Jesus and are trying to navigate in this wicked world so let's leave it at that. I'm not wasting my time arguing and would never throw insults at you bc of your opinion. I hope you have a good day and God bless you
I understand he called him Satan but he was referring to Satan in him trying to stop plan of God. He never called the hated tax collectors vipers or the woman caught in adultery as a matter of fact the religious wanted to stone her and our sweet Jesus saved her I'm so very thankful he sees our hearts and is merciful
You're taking a lot of liberties with the term, "tribe", and minimalizing the hardest ministry there is in Missions. A different language? I'm pretty sure there both speaking English. Tommy Green is great. Holy Name is great. Going into bars or GenZ hangouts is not even close to Missions. Don't get it twisted.
How do you think it isn't?
New Sleeping Giant please!!!!!
Sorry, but I could not watch without being put off by this guy's laughing all time, especially at inappropriate times. I understand joy, I understand laughing when under the Spirit's power, but this wasn't it. This guy is annoying.
They were telling an inside story at the beginning you have to wait til the hymn is explained....or skip to last 10 minutes, hate to have you miss out
Lol grumpy one here
You missed THE WHOLE point of this......
Gotta let go of that anger, and let love in your heart.
@@3rdeyeoracle434 i stand by my comment
I love this!
