I met Dave in 1987 in paparoa prison and he was a man with much mana. This has touched me greatly and I met his brother in the mount in 91 and he also was a top bloke. I believe in God in my personal way and at 67 I'm still in awe at what's happening in my life. I am the eldest of ten boys and it's a awesome thing to see Dave here. Much Aroha and respect for you bro. I am going thru a profound change at the moment, I am a humble man now, still need some more humility as I'm going thru this journey called life. Tehei Mauri Ora brothers this has made my day.
This reminds me of my dad 😢 came from Samoa in the 60s got mixed up in the wrong crowds and finally found God and my mum and became the awesome father Dad uncle and family man !! Rest In Peace dad thank you for sharing your story Mr Letele and thank you lil uce for uploading and sharing ❤️
I just stumbled upon this video and started watching it because I knew it would be a powerful testimony. I hit rock bottom and nearly died twice only to find the Lord Jesus Christ pulling me up and giving me a reason to live. Then when i heard the Advent message and the power that God works, I became an Sda.
@@TFSpodcast_ You're on the spiritual rise my brother, stay the course, lead by example & inspire those who are ready to be inspired on your journey! Mad love & respect 🙏
Just found this channel 🙏🏼 It’s amazing brother! There is no rehabilitation like the rehabilitation given to us by our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. Looking forward to listening to more of these Eps. Much love bra
Awesome testimony David coming from my own stomping grounds Mangere Central I remember them days with the BP Sindi Auckland/Mana Mangu Aotearoa. God Bless you and the Uso from the felin show coming at ya from Melbourne Australia 🇭🇲
Wow David, such a journey you have travelled, I've always seen gangs as sad little boys searching for exceptance. A lot never find their hearts they get so lost. You should be proud of yourself for all do, finding your heart is hard in this cold world, its such a good thing for so many you found yours. Its our hard times that shape us, some only ever find anger you are amazing. Thanks King Dave for making Sunday a day to look forward to, you bring recognition to people helping people that through their darkness have found the light and make their lives so rich helping others.
Great testimony Mr David Letele! What a life journey you've had and turned it around which will definitely benefit others in transition. Salute to the Felon Show! Peace 💯
Another great interview bro. Love the style. Love what the bro has to say...grew up as a state ward. Spent most of my youth from age 4 in and out of family homes, foster homes, the sisters of mercy catholic orphange home..a few years going in and out of epuni boys home , wadestown boys home etc...met heaps of cool guys. But in honesty they were horrible places for kids to grow up in. Much love to everybody . Stay well.
Your the man brother. I've been following you and your kaupapa for a bit now all the korero is so empowering. This episode holds close value to my heart interviewing my uncle. Much love from Sydney brother 💜
Im not relidgise, but think ya vids are awesome. Thanx to ya all makin a difference out there all young once n easy to make mistakes without help. Thanx
The cream rises to the top....eventually! Sadly for the youth there are pitfalls everywhere and decisions made early have long lasting effects which is very very hard to put right. Finding the lord and letting him lead is the only way forward....live clean and forget mean! Respect 🙏 🤲 🙌 🙏
@@TFSpodcast_ Amen 🙏 my brother! You are planting valuable seeds my man and from small things big things grow. I have watched you evolve and you should be proud seriously. I hope the young fellas whichever race watch and absorb your guests life experiences and choose the right pathway in life.
Incredible and inspirational ❤️ gangs growing in qld Australia… so many kids with trauma… wanting to belong 😢 I hope there is/ will be something like this here 🙏
My family came from Samoa when I was 5-6 years old and lived with my Uncle who lived down Wellington...several years later finding out he was in a gang and had a palagi name lol Very interesting to hear how several young men were caught up in that world.
I remember him in Hautu Turangi We took our culture group to Hautu and he was one of the boys was our leader. Took them out to perform great lot of boys
I love this stuff, believe me I’m no Holy Roller however I’m not blind to the fact that peace in one’s life is there for anyone no matter your background. Surround yourself with the right people, if you sleep on the dogs bed too long,eventually fleas will get bite you. Find a God of your understanding and continually surrender to the fact that that god is a power greater than ourselves and ask your god how you can serve him not how he can serve you. The rest my friends is a journey of self discovery, seeing ourselves honestly without justification it knowing it’s all good, share with your people, learn your not alone and love yourself. Awesome channel mate, love what your doing. 😊
Find a God of your understanding? What in the world of satan does that mean? There is only one God. The God of the Bible. Hes the one who Created Us & the world we live in. Hes the only God worth finding. The rest are gods of sticks & stones & a figmant of ones imagination. Yeshua HaMashiach aka Jesus Christ is the one to seek. Hes the only One who can save Anyone. A "god" of our own understanding will only lead us to our own demise. Dont take offence. Just leading a horse to water. You aint got to drink brother. Its your choice.
So do I Micky, all things a possible with God. People respond to personal testimonials because it's real. I remember talking to this Aboriginal elder - a real top bloke and he was raised as one of the tribal executioners who pointed the bone and took many life's. Now he's an sda soldier and witnessing for Christ.
Nothing but respect, thank you. Is there any chance that you'd be able to get Dave back as a guest soon? He has much more of a story to tell & my ears are keen on hearing the man. Cheers bro. And happy Easter
Accept Jesus as your lord and saviour and be saved in Jesus mighty name amen hallelujah praise the lord ✝️✝️✝️ the Bible is truth ❤️ from new Zealand island s 🏝️
In the end bro your dad found out who really cared the most bout him I went through the same with my dad I was the one that got the mean hidings and was always thought of the black sheep in the end my dad got brain cancer my brother put him into a care hospital to die when I heard I took him out of there and looked after him till he passed and for the last t months of his life my older brother didn't visit him once then at dads funeral my brother made a speech saying how he was looking after him yada yada yada I walked out told him to shut the fark up wat u r saying is lies u put him into a care home to die and yes bro I use to shave dad take him to the phadapaku to Mimi he couldn't do it in the end my younger brother called the police on me saying I was trespassing on his house so it stopped me from looking after dad I still went there doh was ready to fight my brother if he tryed to stop me but police come talked to me but in the end dad found out who really loved in
Solid bro. Don't let your bros actions get you negative. He wasn't there at his end days=not good character. Lied at speech=not good character. No surprise g, just hope he wakes up and grows. Stay positive lead by example stay up. Bless
Just as long as you know you did your best for your dad before he passed. Hope one day you are able to forgive your brothers just for your own peace of mind & journey moving forward. You will receive your blessings brother. I pray you heal from all the things that hurt you in the past. God bless you always.
What a beautiful man. Thanks so much for his story. Its important to mention the past but its the transformation and what has been created that is where the miracle is. I only have to look at my own life and the grace of the lord jesus and his work to realise the power that can be vested in us by the H_ Spir_ (i dare not type the name lightly). Looking at this man and the beautiful light that shines through him I am in no doubt of the power of christ. Thank you David.
"(Thou shalt) keep the sabbath day holy and unchanged...". I know the sda observe this commandment. Do you guys follow this "law" or observe the more convenient Sunday as sabbath?
