    I wish I lived near your church, I have not found a church yet that had a pastor that was so excited about the truth and straight from the bible. Most churches preach what the people want to hear or they are out. Thank You (You are a gift to me from God)

    I would appreciate some prayers please. Back in April my mom had a stroke and it has been hard for her, me, and my father. But this summer I went to a Christian camp for a week and we did mission work. I was in a different environment and my Asthma flared up really bad. I was coughing nonstop and I didn't feel 100% well. The 2nd day at site I got really sick in the afternoon. I realized I hadn't drank anything since breakfast and I had lost my water bottle. Coughing nonstop and being in the hot sun picking up cardboard with dust flying all around you wasn't helping. I got really sick and I couldn't help out at the nursing home that day. My Bible study leader was so amazing during that time. I was scared that I would pass out and be taken to the hospital, leave camp, and scare my parents to death. When we got home we started a Bible study every Monday. I have grown so much closer to Christ this summer and I am so thankful for it! Please pray for me though I have had a hard year so far.

    What I like about Peters sermons is this -- even someone who is new to the bible teachings can understand. He tells you who is who, like he did here, by explaining who Peter is in the bible, making it easier to follow along. It's wonderfully refreshing! Thank you for becoming a Pastor and inspiring others to believe in Jesus.

Plus, I feel like I know you guys a bit from watching The Frey Life. Blessings in your new home and church!

    I like how you go into detail about what is written in the bible. I'm an American Literature Major and I also did a few classes on religious studies. I found them so faszinating. I like really looking at the words and at what is written. I think a lot of people don't do that enough, especially with the bible. I also really like how you explained the connection between Peter and petros. Please keep going.

    thank you Peter. for giving me an answer that I have been needing. I haven't been to church for three years due to a man at the church who was verbally abusive towards me and several teens in the church and the elders and pastor did nothing so I just left. before that I had been very involved in church service ,I have missed it so much! thank you God Bless

    • @LivingWithHopePodcast
      @LivingWithHopePodcast  8 лет назад +1

      +Jean Lee I'm so sorry to hear about your experience of being hurt by others in the church. The church is definitely full of brokenness and hurt, but a healthy church is also full of grace and healing. I hope that you can get reconnected with a church that can offer the grace and healing that your heart longs for!

    • @michelleross9782
      @michelleross9782 8 лет назад

      I understand what you said & I'm extremely happy you have gotten the answer to your prayer/question. It can be difficult to choose to go to a building to spend time with a group of people who you experience doing hurtful things even in the Name of God. I pray you can come to forgive (hand over the pain that person caused to God) so you are able to easily choose what you do, think, feel with less pain & influence from that experience. God doesn't want you to be in pain or have your life continuously influenced by something so painful.

    • @arizonarn001
      @arizonarn001 8 лет назад +1

      I am Catholic and we have certainly had our issues. I think of it though that the devil infiltrates the most where God resides. The closer to God you become the more the devil will try to weaken your spirit. Don’t let it happen. God needs us the most now to witness and we need the love and support of God with these trying times.

You did a amazing job, and I pray the Lord will embrace you more and more as well as touch Mary Supernaturally in her health, that she may be truly healed and no longer a CF patient. With much love and blessings in Christ Jesus Always, sister Lisa

    I'm loving this channel, Peter! I've been watching you and Mary for a while now but just found this today. And, if I'm honest, I needed it. I need church, and I need to devote more time God. I'm agoraphobic and rarely leave the house, so this is very helpful me as I haven't been to church in over a year. I am looking forward to more if these videos. Thank you again.

    @QuinceyG 8 лет назад +4

    An amazing word, Peter. You are a wonderful preacher. I really related to your statement about people loosing faith or giving up on the Church. My Father dies last week, and I told my pastor who only sent me an impersonal text message back saying he send his condolences and will pray. I have not heard from him, or anyone from my Church since. It is so hard to feel good about the Church at moments like this. -Quincey

    • @LivingWithHopePodcast
      @LivingWithHopePodcast  8 лет назад +3

      +Papercranesrock Quincey, I'm so sorry to hear about your father. It is definitely hard when people in the church let us down, especially leaders. Being a pastor, I am continually aware that I myself will fail people and let them down... A reminder that Jesus is the foundation of the church and not me, but that being said, Jesus is continually calling us to step up to the calling to BE the church to each other. I hope that you will experience the grace of Jesus in this hard season, Quincey.

    • @QuinceyG
      @QuinceyG 8 лет назад

      Thank you, Peter. It has indeed been a rough week, and while no one is perfect (and I do not expect anyone to be), the Church I have been attending has continuously been ungodly. If you keep saying you love me, an I am a sister, when my Dad dies a phone call is not much to do. I need to find a new place of worship. One where I can feed and be fed, and bless and be blessed. If you know of any Churches on the North Shore, I am up for a recommendation. :D Oh, by the way, I sent my address to your other accounts inbox as I won the latest contest, LOL, much to my surprise and it was a much needed smile last week. God Bless! Thank you once again for your words of encouragement, Peter. -Quincey

  • @pandaspets-secondchannel127
    @pandaspets-secondchannel127 8 лет назад

    the reason I haven't gone to church for years, I used to loooove church and the youth group.... but then the pastor who was a fun dude and seemed to care about us stabbed us in the back basically, turned his back on us and left. (details not needed, too much and infuriating to type) but it broke my heart and I was crushed and I haven't been ever since. I still believe and have faith in the lord, but I'm scared of church, I'm scared to get let down again... I'm scared of being hurt again....

    • @Walkfarther
      @Walkfarther 8 лет назад

      You might not like this but you probably will be hurt by the church again. The church is us, human people, who screw up. I learned that I had to not make the "church" the pastors or leaders. I had to remember it is every single on of us. Plus if I walked away from the church, thinking it's so messed up, how could I have full faith in God and His mercy on us and me when I screw up and let people down? We need each other.

    Peter I thought you did an awesome job preaching. It is so obvious that this is your passion. I have not been to church since I was 11. I am 50 now but I actually had a priest from a Catholic Church we went to throw a bible at me and my parents were there to witness that. Just a question, do you think following a service online is the same as attending church? I ask because I loved listening to your message but it feels like such a daunting task to try to go and find a church that I would like. Believe me I have tried in the past. Thanks.

    Great video.
    If I can give some video advice on production.
    -White balance the camera as it is to orange.
    -Tilt the camera up to give more head room, though it appears the pulpit is really awkward and Peter is hunching a lot.
    Cheers

      @Balentine4 8 лет назад +2

      Maybe his "tic" as you called it is because he is in love with Jesus and he has so much to say about that subject and is trying to say the right things.....everybody has things that they do and are probably insecure about them so NOT pointing them out would be better. NO disrespect intended
