I moved back to the Midwest so I can be with my daughter and transferred to a job that I knew how to do and I was very comfortable with. But the company was not very good and I left it for the post office. The post office was even worse. It was very toxic and the hours and the days were odd and I just could not see myself working there for very long. Something in my soul and in my gut told me that I needed to quit in order to be mentally stable. Luckily I had a little bit of a money cushion so I went ahead and quit. Now I am unemployed and haven't been unemployed in many many years. Sometimes I feel like a total loser but I am using this time to accept my situation which has been difficult. To grieve. But also to connect with God. As a former atheist and recently a former agnostic I'm starting to get to know God and I hope to know him very well soon. Please pray for me and I need a breakthrough. Thank you Pastor Rick.
Thank you for this teaching. I am STILL in battle with my failures. But once I am free, I will use them to teach. I need prayer. Prayer to break free from my failures aka addictions. Thank you all! ♥️
I used to have the same belief in my head.... I'm 56yrs old... My 94 yr old Mother recently said to me That I had "messed up" my ENTIRE LIFE!!!

I lived a Horror Story from age 8 to 62, one you would not believe was real. Incest , mentally abused, physically abused, and I passed it on to my children . ( I told my daughter, I never wanted a girl, because I didn’t want her to live my life.) I DID NOT KNOW GOD. 😢 After years of abuse from others and what I did to myself. I got cancer and other problems which put me into a coma for 3 years. When I came out 🙏🙌 I KNEW GODS LOVE AND HIS FORGIVENESS , that was 12 years ago. I’m 74 now and I work for the glory of my Farther God. 🙏❤️🙌 PRASE HIM!! AMEN
The week after my baptism I continued to sin, the only difference is the great remorse I felt this time because I know better. I have failed God and myself, but this sermon has encouraged me to keep going in Christ. Holy Spirit please give me the strength to turn from my earthly desires. My flesh is waging war on me and I can’t fight it alone.
Courtney Faith Bryant we are all saints who are sinners. Just get in the word and trust his prompting in your life. You’re doing better than you think u are
Dear Courtney, Thanks for Ur honesty. Yes, the Christway is struggle but also rest. Because our failures can help the Holy Spirit lead us closer to Jesus by our daily repentance. When He shows us our hopelessness, we can see we really need to stay close to Jesus in daily continous communication, studying His word, fellowshipping with believers, worshipping. Try Esther Muis music of Scriptures- and sing along:-)You can find them with lyrics on YT:-).And finding a pastor to confide in as often as possible and confess sins to can be very supportive. Ask for prayer too. The Saddlebach Church has digital councelling too:-)-I will also pray for U. Remember! You are a princess, dearly beloved daughter of the King of Kings. 👸Blessings from Irene, Denmark.🙏💒🗽👸
I wholeheartedly understand, I too have drowned myself in shame and disappointment, but God keeps reminding me that He isn't done with me and to carry on. I need to get plugged back into a community, falling away and isolating has been a big mistake leaving me weak and disillusioned. Hope the best for you sister. God bless and keep you in Jesus' name, amen.
I just wanna say thank you for this Pastor Rick. I am dealing with sins I’ve committed in my childhood and adolescence. So much pain and regret, but God was so good in the healing process for my recovery. This was encouraging and a reminder of God’s mercy and goodness. God bless you Pastor 🙏🏽
😭😭😭 I wept bitterly in this sermon. Nothing is more painful in this world than knowing that we have failed God. He is indeed a God of second chances, merciful and loving.
We never fail God , we fail our selves , God wants to bless us , we really don't add nothing to him but he wants to add everything to us and we miss out because we are failing our selves, don't beat your self up feeling bad for God , God is G he is all good for ever , you hurt your self and he wants you to come to him and feel great ,.drop your failure forget it it's already in the past and forgiven , instead look ahead .
i do not agree with everything rick warrens stands for BUT GOD has used this sermon and a few others from Mr. Warren to help me in some of my darkest times. no one is perfect. thank you to rick warren.
I’m tired of this life tired of working tired of failing, God just needs to guide us instead of making us guess what to do....No I dont want to depend on other humans I want to hear from God himself
Right! I say that all the time lol I ask constantly "Why does it have to be so cryptic Lord?" Then I remind myself that I know why... I understand that God says we are here to learn and he gave us free will so we can learn different things. Our free allows us not only the opportunity to do the right thing but also the opportunity to do the wrong thing...Doing the wrong thing or making bad choices give us the opportunity to learn. The more we mess up in the same area, the better we learn the lessons allowing us to become teachers in those areas. Jesus' disciples were fishers of men and in order to share the Good News they had to be good teachers! Glory be to God and his brilliant plans for us!
Exactly! That's the way I used to feel. I would be so impatient that I wouldn't wait on God to talk to me but I didn't even realize the whole time He was talking to me. Through my failures he made me stronger... I took that for granted. He was only Wanting me to ask for his help instead of me doing it on my own And in my own flesh like ways. Don't forget He's always there for you . Be patient and look for lessons that you may be overlooking. It's his will and his way, and know he will never fail you. Don't give up, Go back and find where you left him, He has not left you. That is probably one of the hardest lessons that I have dealt with also.

The problem with me is now as an adult I've become ashamed of grieving, getting tearful, crying. I think this came from being bullied a lot at school because of a physical disability that made me walk different, I thought that people perceived me as emotionally and mentally weak as well. I was naturally sensitive but in desperation to not feel weak and inferior and to minimize the chance of being bullied, I shut off my natural response of crying/grieving because of any kind of pain. Now whenever there's a response in me that wants to cry, my first urge is to push and beat it down and subdue it. Does anyone have any advice to help me start letting myself feel again, and let my body/tear ducts express their natural response? This message has so much well thought out wisdom.
I love how Pastor Rick makes the Bible come alive and makes it practical. Always learn something new and helpful with every sermon. Hope to visit one day!!!! 👍🏼

This message made me shad tears, i have always felt God was done hence i went back to the world. Lord, I present my broken life to you, just show me your mercy once again......
listening to Rick Warren is like God into my living room. He delivers the unadulterated word of God without compromising the truth. I thank God for Mercy and Grace. Satan, God just use this message to kick your butt. Now l know what to do when the triggers come. l will focus more on the mercy of God than condemnation. May the anoiting of God never seize in his life. Thankyou. Mary
Wow I’m surprised u compared this man to God , he’s just human, please do not have false idols. This isn’t right. I was shocked when I seen this. Let us not worship human or listen to every word any human says only God .
Pastor You are the blessed one of the Faithful Lord to simplify and teach His Word. My failures are countless and I have learned today they are my lessons for growth because the steadfast love of the Lord God never ceases. He is merciful and always ready to help us with our growth if we are ready to listen to Him. I wish to help the work of Saddleback financially ( even a small amount) but could not do it this far. Pray for me to overcome my obstacles in contributing toward the Lord’s service through your wonderful mission. Thank you.
I've been all ears to some of pastor Rick's sermon and it helps me to renew my thoughts. Life has been hard growing up but I thank God for the renewed strength day by day.

Many Christians speak hardly and hurt others! I've been in many situations were I've asked for prayer or counsel. But the wrong words hurt and offended me. I've grown in Knowledge by reading Gods word. In many personal trials. How we respond to hard times shows what our heart believes. Pastor Rick thank you for speaking truth about stuffing our emotions, causes explosions of Anger! God is in control not me!
Thank you for this beautiful, powerful, message of hope and Grace! I’m beginning to believe that Jesus died for me .. and all his children. Amen 🙏 and Amen 🙏
Mannnn this hit home . The enemies attack of you are useless, Lack of identity, soul pain triggers. Jesus is greater. Thank God for his grace his Mercy hos forgiveness!
Going through my biggest failure but have found comfort and life lesson in this teaching pastor Reck May the lord shines his face more and more in your life
I had just come through a massive failure in my life and was feeling so down and desperate about myself and this message really renewed my spirit. Thank you so much!! After my failure, the first book i read is Purpose Driven Life and it changed my thinking towards God and I'm really thankful to God for Pastor Rick.
wow this teaching is amazing. I love that Pastor Rick preaches from the word of God and preaches biblical truths. I literally had a failure today where I reacted out of anger. I felt horrible immediately for what I did. I felt dirty and far from God. I felt guilty and ashamed. I looked up on RUclips "when I fail God" and this teaching came up and wow the Bible is alive and His word is alive. I have repented and received God's forgiveness and mercy. I feel like the woman who poured her perfume on Jesus. She gave to Jesus so much worship because she was forgiven much. And now that I feel God has forgiven me (and will continue to forgive me) I want to give forgiveness to my transgressors. God is love and His love has touched me and has made me want to be giving to others (even in my failure). I believe God is using my failures and shortcomings so that I can "feed His sheep".
Feeling like the biggest failure but in the back of my mind i feel like God see different of me and see that I am trying to be a better person. I'm trying to make ALL the right decisions I'm 22 and I don't have time to waste. I need to make right decisions at all times and that burden I put on myself is too much but I can't help it.
This is a true man of God,wisdom is in force,wisdom only come from above ,you may be educated and still lack wisdom.wisdom is only for those who truly serve God without cheat.Give a try and God will open your eyes into a new world.thanks so much for your msg. pastor osah
Rick Warren gets the nuances of scripture and makes them so approachable. I dare say this is my #1 Spiritual teacher (well aside from the Holy Spirit) and I've never met the man. Amazing insight into human life with God. Thank you Lord Jesus for your mercy that redeemed me from a long dark night.
Psalm 18:1-2 I WILL love thee, O LORD, my strength. 2 The Lord is my rock , and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
Thank you God and thank you Rick Warren, the lord lead me to this today. My brother in Christ said pretty much this to me yesterday and now hearing you say it really hits home as to where I need to change things and the direction to go!!! Thank you Father for your mercy!!!
It’s amazing how this sermon came before me this morning. It’s exactly what I needed. I’d definitely been somewhere in the Judas desperation side of things, not wanting to be. I knew I was being attacked by Satan and my own bad habits. Jesus comes after us and will use the smallest sliver of light in us to help us navigate out of the dark. He led me back to HIS promises through Pastor Rick who presented so beautifully here. Using scripture is key. Keep looking up like Peter. Grateful! Bless you!
Praise the Lord for pastor Rick Warren’s sermons. Ever since I started listening to his profound messages, I have regained that intimacy with God which I haven’t experienced for long. I have rediscovered that first love for Jesus. Thank you . Love you in Christ.
I can't even express the magnitude of my gratitude to Pastor Rick Warren how you have conveyed God's word to me which has saved my life and yet I'm a child of God. This is truly a revelation to me.
Wow, I've been praying about "these kind of problems' -- not figuring out GOD LEAD ME TO THIS SERMON🙏👆Thank you Lord .... you have spoke to me.....I need to go thru it‼️
Thank you LORD for Your Tender Love and Mercy that can never end. I receive grace to learn from my failure and come up as a Teacher of the Truth of God's Goodness, Grace and Mercy to all people around me. Thank you Pastor Rick
Had been struggling with my personel relationship with God for years...And had been wondering if God does forgives my habitual sins. This sermon broke me down to my knees and with tears. I know God still loves me and I am determined to get out of my habitual sins. Thankyou for this wonderful message.
Listen your sin hurt you not God , you can't hurt God , your only hurting your self , your the one missing out on love of God and favor , he feels bad for you , you don't need to feel bad for him , you should accept his power and love and help your self through him that's what he wants you to do and not feel bad thinking you hurt him , he is unhurtable , he is good for ever meaning he need nothing from you he only wants to give you , he is not a human don't think your hurt him or make him feel bad etc , God is eternal bliss who needs nothing from you or anyone , he makes everything for you though and he wants you to have everything through him , but you think you want sin when it destroys you , you are your own enemy so instead of feeling bad for God , feel bad for your self and what your doing to your self and instead free your self , accept God's gift of restoration
Thank you Pastor for the teaching. It has been a blessing to my life.I would like to do the right thing as Peter did teaching and strengthening others.
Rick have the ability to come with many importen messages after another . i have learned so much from this man about many areas in life he have a great understanding of the bible. and not at least how the trues of the bible relate to our lives
Pastor Rick Warren I don't know how much to pray for you, this message has brought healing to my soul. May your knowledge and understanding of the scripture continue to multiple daily. May the good God strengthens and keep you for a greater reward.
I need to listen to this teaching about 5-10 more times to assimilate the information that is really life changing. What a great and faithful servant of God Pastor Rick is !
Pastor Rick, you are just amazing! You really bring the Bible's message alive! Your interpretation of the Word is so poetic. Thank you for your ministry. I am a follower of your sermons.
This pastor is amazing I’ve never read the Bible in my life but I’m starting to enjoy it. It’s really fun listening to him I don’t even have to go to church to feel good
Thank you Jesus my God granted more years to come my life change when I listen to your sermons I take notes and I started to practice what your teacher my life is change .
That’s exactly what i did tonight grieved for two hours and I always believe but never fully committed and asked God to come and to me i always believed but I never said god I need you to take over my life and help me and guide me I grieved and then I went down stairs and my mom was just sitting there she’s been there e whole time and just continue to break down and ask her finally for the first time I want and need to give my life to God for real and it was painful thar soulful pain Iv felt my whole life and my mom started speaking in tongues and God spoke through her for exactly what I was grieving in the order exactly of what I was grieving... and now I am meditating and fully committed to have him take control over my life
Amen pastor he says what is needed to be said and not what people want to hear i really needed to hear this no matter how it makes me feel i need to repent and surrender fully to Christ no matter what anyone thinks of me.
GRACE is getting what we don't deserve. MERCY is not getting what we deserve. I praise God the he has lavishly gifted us with both Grace and Mercy through Jesus Christ!
Believe the Old Testament saints were forced to purely depend on mercy, but through Christ Jesus’ Snead blood, we Receive all truths by Grace through His Faith in the Name of Christ Jesus.
Greg Laurie said that “a unguarded strength is a double weakness” unless he stole it from you. Either way doesn’t matter. You are both using it for Gods kingdom. Great message. The Lord has spoken through you to me.
Thought I'll share Peter in Greek is petros and Rock in Greek is Petra, this is why Catholics think like they do. Jesus said he will build his church on this Petra (rock) to Peter (Petros), who denied christ 3x. We all fall short but christ church is in us all, those who believe where christ will build his church. NZ Wellington Porirua loves you Rick. God bless

Right! I say that all the time lol I ask constantly "Why does it have to be so cryptic Lord?" Then I remind myself that I know why...
I understand that God says we are here to learn and he gave us free will so we can learn different things. Our free allows us not only the opportunity to do the right thing but also the opportunity to do the wrong thing...Doing the wrong thing or making bad choices give us the opportunity to learn.

You have. You've failed. Go in a different direction. God is energy-not a human. He lines things up when you trust and go in His direction.
Have you tried speaking to God yourself instead of listening to humans? ❤️
Exactly! That's the way I used to feel. I would be so impatient that I wouldn't wait on God to talk to me but I didn't even realize the whole time He was talking to me.

Hello cherry, how are you doing today,hope you're good 😊👋
The problem with me is now as an adult I've become ashamed of grieving, getting tearful, crying. I think this came from being bullied a lot at school because of a physical disability that made me walk different, I thought that people perceived me as emotionally and mentally weak as well. I was naturally sensitive but in desperation to not feel weak and inferior and to minimize the chance of being bullied, I shut off my natural response of crying/grieving because of any kind of pain. Now whenever there's a response in me that wants to cry, my first urge is to push and beat it down and subdue it.
Does anyone have any advice to help me start letting myself feel again, and let my body/tear ducts express their natural response?
This message has so much well thought out wisdom.
I love how Pastor Rick makes the Bible come alive and makes it practical. Always learn something new and helpful
with every sermon. Hope to visit one day!!!! 👍🏼
Tracey T Its not pastor Rick 😍🙏🏻 but he is a great vessel 👌🏼
Tracey T I agree
When you cast your care you lose your despair. Awesome.

This message made me shad tears, i have always felt God was done hence i went back to the world. Lord, I present my broken life to you, just show me your mercy once again......
listening to Rick Warren is like God into my living room. He delivers the unadulterated word of God without compromising the truth. I thank God for Mercy and Grace. Satan, God just use this message to kick your butt. Now l know what to do when the triggers come. l will focus more on the mercy of God than condemnation. May the anoiting of God never seize in his life. Thankyou. Mary
Love the message Pastor Warren. I appreciate you giving me confidence to face the day.
TRUE..
Wow I’m surprised u compared this man to God , he’s just human, please do not have false idols. This isn’t right. I was shocked when I seen this. Let us not worship human or listen to every word any human says only God .
God, you are kind, loving and merciful. In fact, you love to show mercy.

Pastor
You are the blessed one of the Faithful Lord to simplify and teach His Word. My failures are countless and I have learned today they are my lessons for growth because the steadfast love of the Lord God never ceases. He is merciful and always ready to help us with our growth if we are ready to listen to Him.
I wish to help the work of Saddleback financially ( even a small amount) but could not do it this far. Pray for me to overcome my obstacles in contributing toward the Lord’s service through your wonderful mission. Thank you.
I come to Orange County with nothing one month ago! But I'm so blessed to find saddleback and I pray God lead me to the next step
I pray to God help me to get through with my problems in life.
Catherine Ramirez he will stay in faith

Yes i agree!!!
Many Christians speak hardly and hurt others! I've been in many situations were I've asked for prayer or counsel. But the wrong words hurt and offended me. I've grown in Knowledge by reading Gods word. In many personal trials. How we respond to hard times shows what our heart believes. Pastor Rick thank you for speaking truth about stuffing our emotions, causes explosions of Anger! God is in control not me!
Thank you for this beautiful, powerful, message of hope and Grace! I’m beginning to believe that Jesus died for me .. and all his children. Amen 🙏 and Amen 🙏
Mannnn this hit home . The enemies attack of you are useless, Lack of identity, soul pain triggers. Jesus is greater. Thank God for his grace his Mercy hos forgiveness!
thank you Lord for Pastor Warren. he teaches the bible
beautiful. he teaches the bible
that everyone understands the way he preaches.
Going through my biggest failure but have found comfort and life lesson in this teaching pastor Reck May the lord shines his face more and more in your life
This is probably one of the best sermons I’ve ever heard. And I’ve heard thousands.
Thank you Pastor Rick, this was so timely 🙋♀️🙏😍

I had just come through a massive failure in my life and was feeling so down and desperate about myself and this message really renewed my spirit. Thank you so much!!
After my failure, the first book i read is Purpose Driven Life and it changed my thinking towards God and I'm really thankful to God for Pastor Rick.
Jojo pki oh I ou huh i I huh hi ihljhhi808jb9b99bji
Your sermons really speak to my heart
Thank you Pastor Rick
wow this teaching is amazing. I love that Pastor Rick preaches from the word of God and preaches biblical truths. I literally had a failure today where I reacted out of anger. I felt horrible immediately for what I did. I felt dirty and far from God. I felt guilty and ashamed. I looked up on RUclips "when I fail God" and this teaching came up and wow the Bible is alive and His word is alive. I have repented and received God's forgiveness and mercy. I feel like the woman who poured her perfume on Jesus. She gave to Jesus so much worship because she was forgiven much. And now that I feel God has forgiven me (and will continue to forgive me) I want to give forgiveness to my transgressors. God is love and His love has touched me and has made me want to be giving to others (even in my failure). I believe God is using my failures and shortcomings so that I can "feed His sheep".
Hello Stephania, how are you doing today,hope you're good 😊👋
Feeling like the biggest failure but in the back of my mind i feel like God see different of me and see that I am trying to be a better person. I'm trying to make ALL the right decisions I'm 22 and I don't have time to waste. I need to make right decisions at all times and that burden I put on myself is too much but I can't help it.
.I praise him for he is my strength and my redeemer for his mercy endures forever and ever amen
This is a true man of God,wisdom is in force,wisdom only come from above ,you may be educated and still lack wisdom.wisdom is only for those who truly serve God without cheat.Give a try and God will open your eyes into a new world.thanks so much for your msg.
pastor osah
Another lesson that is helping me these last few days. It is like it was written just for me.
That's the work of God Almighty. I used to think my pastor aimed certain sermons towards me 😄
*Amen...always give God/Jesus the glory...always.*
Nothing wrong at all appreciating 'the messenger' though.
Shalom
Rick Warren gets the nuances of scripture and makes them so approachable. I dare say this is my #1 Spiritual teacher (well aside from the Holy Spirit) and I've never met the man. Amazing insight into human life with God. Thank you Lord Jesus for your mercy that redeemed me from a long dark night.
Psalm 18:1-2 I WILL love thee, O LORD, my strength. 2 The Lord is my rock , and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
Are you following Jesus at a distance? powerful word!
You might have just saved my life. God sent me to you to hear this. I'm crying. Thank you!
I cried when I heard this, thank you for this message.
Thank you God and thank you Rick Warren, the lord lead me to this today. My brother in Christ said pretty much this to me yesterday and now hearing you say it really hits home as to where I need to change things and the direction to go!!! Thank you Father for your mercy!!!
It’s amazing how this sermon came before me this morning. It’s exactly what I needed. I’d definitely been somewhere in the Judas desperation side of things, not wanting to be. I knew I was being attacked by Satan and my own bad habits. Jesus comes after us and will use the smallest sliver of light in us to help us navigate out of the dark. He led me back to HIS promises through Pastor Rick who presented so beautifully here. Using scripture is key. Keep looking up like Peter. Grateful! Bless you!
Man this hurt , its so true ive please pray for me
Praise the Lord for pastor Rick Warren’s sermons. Ever since I started listening to his profound messages, I have regained that intimacy with God which I haven’t experienced for long. I have rediscovered that first love for Jesus. Thank you . Love you in Christ.
love you jesus..iam weak help me to build ur church on my failures..iam building my hope on you..
God bless you my pastor ❤. Thank you my Abba Father for caring for me❤.
Thanks God, thank you PS Rick Warren, i am strengthened by this sermon. May GOD always bless you .
Hello Helis, how are you doing today,hope you're good 😊👋
I can't even express the magnitude of my gratitude to Pastor Rick Warren how you have conveyed God's word to me which has saved my life and yet I'm a child of God. This is truly a revelation to me.
praise the lord brother, my name is moses , i am from india.
please pray for me. thank you.
Wow, I've been praying about "these kind of problems' -- not figuring out
GOD LEAD ME TO THIS SERMON🙏👆Thank you Lord .... you have spoke to me.....I need to go thru it‼️
Thank you LORD for Your Tender Love and Mercy that can never end. I receive grace to learn from my failure and come up as a Teacher of the Truth of God's Goodness, Grace and Mercy to all people around me.
Thank you Pastor Rick
Had been struggling with my personel relationship with God for years...And had been wondering if God does forgives my habitual sins. This sermon broke me down to my knees and with tears. I know God still loves me and I am determined to get out of my habitual sins. Thankyou for this wonderful message.
Listen your sin hurt you not God , you can't hurt God , your only hurting your self , your the one missing out on love of God and favor , he feels bad for you , you don't need to feel bad for him , you should accept his power and love and help your self through him that's what he wants you to do and not feel bad thinking you hurt him , he is unhurtable , he is good for ever meaning he need nothing from you he only wants to give you , he is not a human don't think your hurt him or make him feel bad etc , God is eternal bliss who needs nothing from you or anyone , he makes everything for you though and he wants you to have everything through him , but you think you want sin when it destroys you , you are your own enemy so instead of feeling bad for God , feel bad for your self and what your doing to your self and instead free your self , accept God's gift of restoration
Paster Rick has the ability to speak in a way it’s easy for me to understand.
❤❤Amen.... Thanks God for this preaching..for using pastor so send your message for us to learn , encourage us and stay faithful on you ❤❤ Amen
May we all have all the mercy from God, may we learn to listen to God and may we not forget that...Jesus loves us!!!!

amen. "dont be too self-confident"
Amen pastor he says what is needed to be said and not what people want to hear i really needed to hear this no matter how it makes me feel i need to repent and surrender fully to Christ no matter what anyone thinks of me.
This message was delivered 4 years ago but it is so relevant today. Thank you Lord for your mercies that are new every morning.
GRACE is getting what we don't deserve. MERCY is not getting what we deserve.
I praise God the he has lavishly gifted us with both Grace and Mercy through Jesus Christ!
mercy is not getting what we deserver?? maybe I am missing something?
Bible Munch Amen!
John punishment we deserve

Believe the Old Testament saints were forced to purely depend on mercy, but through Christ Jesus’ Snead blood, we Receive all truths by Grace through His Faith in the Name of Christ Jesus.
God's gift to people, this man.
I love you Jesus I’m giving you more than I ever have and I pray you help me continue to give me the strength to make the right decisions

Unguard strength is double weakness. Thank you so much Pastor Rick, every time I listen your sermon, I find something new.
Greg Laurie said that “a unguarded strength is a double weakness” unless he stole it from you. Either way doesn’t matter. You are both using it for Gods kingdom. Great message. The Lord has spoken through you to me.
So good this guy is a blessing, he makes so much sense thankyou Jesus for this man.
61 listening to this counsel 1st x sharing childhood/teen traumas. Praying for God to use me to help others.
The Holy Spirit lead me to this message just when I needed but I was not even looking for it,today I am receiving my emotional healing,thank u thank u
Thought I'll share Peter in Greek is petros and Rock in Greek is Petra, this is why Catholics think like they do. Jesus said he will build his church on this Petra (rock) to Peter (Petros), who denied christ 3x. We all fall short but christ church is in us all, those who believe where christ will build his church. NZ Wellington Porirua loves you Rick. God bless
