God have his burden and that is what makes you weep! You are feeling what He is feeling! It’s a heart of compassion!😭❤️
This is the most underrated semi-political mainly Christian podcast. Keep up the good work on both the podcast and music John!
Amen! Nothing wrong with weeping. I too have experienced more weeping. We are feeling what Jesus feels.
Cooper...I love your fire and zeal for the truth! May God continue to use you.❤❤
I completely understand what you mean about how you felt last year...I felt the same. Thank God He provides peace...
9:31 John says, "Uh-oh, I'm gonna start preaching," like it would be a bad thing. Preach, brother!
It’s hard not to weep on a daily basis anymore. I couldn’t survive this world without God’s grace, hope, and peace.
So thankful for you speaking the truth and taking a stand! I have listened to your music for 20yrs. Praying for you. Preach on brother!!!!!
I can't believe it, but I just read and was studying 2 Peter chapter 1 on Sunday! Thank you John for your passion and commitment to pushing the church to be the salt and light we were meant to be. May God Bless you in 2024!
I love all that you have said. When you said if you love me keep my commandments. That means the fourth one also. Love your passion. I believe we need to follow the hole Bible.
Glory to God!
Love it, Brother John! Keep bringing the Word and the Light! GODspeed!👊👏✋👍🙏🔥
I'm so grateful that my pastor is not afraid to speak about what we have to do and be as believers in this messed up, sinful world. He knows the climate of our society and is glad to speak the truth of God in the face of the evil that surrounds us.
Coop, this is just what I needed. I’ve been weeping lately over sin, sins affect on the world, those who are lost and Christs AMAZING love and grace. I wept when I read in Nehemiah how the Israelites found the law (again) and read it before all the people, then the people wept because they saw Gods mercy and long suffering with His people and they rejected Him time and again and He warned them to turn or else they will be taken captive, they just finished their 70 years in Babylon and saw God was Just and said don’t mourn for today is not a day of mourning but rejoicing and told them to eat the fat and drink the sweet. Enjoy the beauties of this world and give thanks to God for His Justice AND Mercy. I weep when I think of Christs love for Judas Iscariot. He is an awe inspiring God and worthy to be praised. You hit this nail on the head, such a timely message.
Please keep speaking the truth it's really encouraging. Thanks so much.👍
Good preaching!
Keep preaching truth!
So good to start out the new year with Cooper!!!!! Woooooo!! Gotta get some preaching up in here!
Preach John!!! Rock on!
Thank you. John. Cooper🙌
AMEN!!!!
AMEN!
Amen!!
Happy new year, John! Loving the book, loving the album, and loved the concert! I have to admit, I am taken aback at the depth and thoughtfulness of your writing. Sometimes it is surprising that the guy screaming about the psycho in my head is also a powerfully grounded intellectual. But, then, our society places those paradigms on our minds. Of course a man who loves God and pursues Him so earnestly is wise and well-read... there's nothing that says he can't rock the mic at the same time!
Walking in Holy Spirit power. Ready for 2024 to be effective for Jesus.
I just watched an interview with John Bevere (months old video), and he was talking about the condition of the church, that it has been in a "wilderness" since the end of the Jesus movement, because of how the church handled His gifts. But the next and final great move of God is coming very soon, and it will be a movement of the fear of the Lord.
PREACH!! What a powerful episode… thank you for what you do!
Amen John!!!
PREACH! I absolutely understand the sadness and desperation you described as I’ve felt the same in the last year. I so appreciate your ability to put all of that and more into words. I’ve shared episodes on my social media in the past, but I shared this one with a message of my high recommendation to my family and friends. I get it. Thank you!
Lets be effective in our world! The reason the world is in the state it is in is that the body of Christ fell asleep like the unwise virgins! We need to wake up and take our stand in our communities, to be the light and salt of the world! We aren't supposed to be pointing fingers, but establishing a plumb line!
❤️🩹 Very very thankful for this. And every Cooper Stuff episode really. This is exactly the cause of my depression and the tension I live in- a mix of sadness & joy equally. Thankful for those who can say what I don’t know how to. And are able to teach what we desperately need to learn. Thank you. ❤️🩹
So happy to learn that you're a continuationist! After becoming saved, I kind of defaulted to cessationism. After listening to The Remnant Radio provide the Biblical support for continuationism, they convinced me! While there is so much hyper-charismatic abuse, I think the Bible is pretty clear. Totally agree with all you said today!
Amen Cooper
There's a Cooper in my head, making me think about buying a hardcover book... no, seriously, pornography is such a huge problem and probably why teenagers are dealing with the issues they're dealing with (gender dysphoria, sexual confusion, sexual addiction). And then living the whole truth of the Word of God... yeah, we need to get back to that as a church. I'm looking for a church that is willing to just preach from the Word so I can get back to understanding the depth, value, and power of the everyday Christian walk wherever God places me. There have been prophecies about this being a shaking, hard time for everyone but that God will be increasing and blessing his Church as well. I believe good times are coming... God is doing a new and exciting thing!
Amen
Great episode! The encouragement I needed to start this year off right. Thanks Cooper Stuff!
Just finishing up the first chapter of the new book, John. I have laughed my tail off and, at times, yelled out "preach!"
Your godly sorrow makes me think of Ezekiel 9:3-6. God tells the angel to destroy everyone in the city of Jerusalem that doesn't have godly sorrow for the wickedness of the nation. Oh, and btw, start at the sanctuary with all those wimpy, weak, and woke elders 😬
I am just starting to read your Wimpy, Weak, and Woke book I picked up a few days ago on kindle. God bless you and your family John. I saw you about 20 years or so ago in Albuquerque play at a small church in the NE Heights, and I think at least one other time in Albuquerque, but can't remember where, lol.
AMEN! C’mon sumboday!!
Amen bro!
Amen and maranatha!
So glad to have you back! Got my book! It's next in my stack!! Thanks for speaking THE Truth!🙌
Good word!
wimpy, weak and woke book is pretty good to read I am still reading your book I love to read about your life story.
😂😂 He said "What's that smell!" right after I caught a whiff of my stinky garbage disposal. 😂😂
Thank you. Verry helpful, i needed this message.
I really enjoy your podcast! Keep speaking TRUTH. 🙏🔥
I got your book 'Wimpy Weak and Woke' for Christmas. God bless you John!
Happy New Year! Still waiting on my copy of your book (wife ordered before Christmas, but I'm still patiently waiting to get it to read). Keep fighting the good fight my brother! We stand with you and Christ Jesus against the Woke agenda in America. I'm an OG fan of your band from the very beginning. God bless and rock on 👍😎
I cry for this world all the time 😢 thank you John 🕊❤️🙏
Amen! HELLO! wooooo! Don’t stop him now he’s preachin!
Happy New Year to you all and many blessings ❤🙏🏻
Amen. Im with you.
John , you're charismatic?
I listened three times with closed captioning on to make sure I heard correctly. This is one listener who didn't know this.
@cooperstuff Great episode. Me and my buddy discuss a lot how there seems to be an influx in the church of tertiary ways to combat sin or struggles. People saying you gotta read this book or that or join this group. Those things have their place and are great for community but they are not the fix. Seems easier to run to something outside the Word and the Spirit rather than taking a supernatural Highlander sword and wielding it! Thank you for the encouragement! Still time to do a survival campout with me on the channel😉👊
YAY! John is back!!!!! I've been waiting so patiently 😊
Happy New Year!
I’m ready to live for Jesus! Come to Gateway Church too Robert Morris would love to have you here! Gateway would love to see you at Men’s Summit 2024! We getting fired up for Jesus in Texas!
Great podcast to begin the new year! The verses you referenced (2 Pe. 1:1-11) are my personal favorite verses. Thanks so much for your boldness and passion. Thanks for not being afraid to use your platform for the glory of God and calling His people out on the mat.
Happy New Year, John!! I am so glad you’re back and spreading the Truth! ❤️🔥 I’m ready to go this journey with you in 2024!!
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Happy New Year to you & yours! Really love your version of "Be Thou My Vision." Hoping Sword & Shield will continue this year. Yes, get your preach on John. Btw have hardback and soft cover. Received bookmark & t-shirt too. God bless you, my brother in Christ! 🙏
Amazing episode John!! Love the new book I’m in Chapter 2 learning a lot about this world your book is!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥 I even got second copy gave that one to my friend for Christmas gift he loves it!
Great episode!
John! Welcome to 2024, man! Interesting video as usual. It's definitely gonna be a big year. Hopefully, all goes well.
Amen!
It makes sense as christ followers to weep and weep over sin and the brokenness/enslavement of sin.
Glory to God! Bro. John, there has been more than one time over this last year when God has prompted me to pray for you. I have eyes to see how hard this last year was for you. Skillet was constantly touring, you were writing a book, (stirring up crazy with the reactions to the title) and yes, the world is heading to hell at breakneck speed. Revival or we die. But I am not afraid. Jesus rules..."I am the earthquake, armies shake at my name; I come for justice, recognize your king..." I can't tell you what a blessing it was to hear your video of "Be Thou My Vision". Like you, I love the hymns. Stay strong; we will continue to pray for you, your family, the band, and the other great voices of this generation: Dr.'s Michael Brown, and James White; Russell Johnson, Remnant Radio, Apologia...to name a few... Glory to God! Keep Preachin!
Amen and God bless you! 🙏
Keep up the good work I know a lot of people doesn't want to listen about God but they Need it because With God we can do anything and with Jesus everything will fall into place like it's supposed to God be pleased with what your doing John keep it up
Happy New Year my Brother! Thanks for this Amazing video!
God Bless!
Lamentations 3 ♥️🙏
This might be your best vlog. Thank you.
Joyful and blessed New Year! Buckle up! Amen no more passive followers!
Real love for people means loving them enough to keep them from eternal death. Our idea of love is pleasure not genuine soul deep love. Jesus is real Love - the Love that keeps us from destruction. Thank you John for standing for the Truth.
Thanks for the work, John!
37:47 I think Billy Graham once said he estimated that 80% of church members in the US aren't really saved. They think they are, but they aren't. Sadly, I bet this extends to leadership. This would explain the lack of concern/action.
HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS!!! ❤
New opening looks great!
❤😊
Good episode! Didn't realize how much I missed listening to Cooperstuff!
Happy New John
Let’s gooooo
Happy new year!! Got your new book and a Cooper Stuff T-shirt for Christmas! Can't wait for it to show up! 🇨🇦
Hey John I just finished this awesome and inspiring ep. Every point you've made is right on, but I have a question? Here it is. I know if everyone in the US was saved we would still fail cause we're in a fallen world, But shouldn't the churches that don't believe in saving the unborn question whether they're actually in Christ. Just wanted to hear your thoughts. Note: I'm only 17 so please feel free to correct me, and I like things straight forward so . . .
There you go!!
To be honest With u John i stay more to be Hero and i love rock Musik Skillet heal me Always to be happy
Happy new year John !!!!
Bible Reading Plan, Christ Kirk
I can’t read because I’m blind but I am a fan of your music and have been since 2010 and love your passion for God keep up the good work I would like to see you again for the fourth time this time to meet you backstage your entire band is awesome. I have an idea for a tour maybe soon a tour with another one of my favorite bands the newsboys I left a comment on this idea on one of their videos, and that is a tour idea for y’all to tour together and bring back a song that you and Michael did back in the day before he was in newsboys called not in our house if you remember from hero the rock opera from 2003 I would definitely pay to go see that.
I don't know if you heard of Brylan Riggs. John was on his podcast as well. Newsboys are woke along with others. They all need prayers, you might want to read or hear about them yourself. They support Amy Grant's woke LGBTQ stuff. Just an FYI and take care.
I agree 100. I believe what God says. The Bible is the word of God inspired by the Holy Spirit (God) He doesn't lie so we take Him at His word. When people say 'who are you to say you're right?' I'm just like 'I'm not saying...these are God's words and I agree with Him.' He's got a pretty flawless track record just saying.

"Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God." - James 4:4
John 8:12.Again Jesus spoke to them saying I am the light of life world and whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.
Job 12
12 Then Job answered:
2 No doubt you are the people,
and wisdom will die with you!
3 But I also have a mind;
I am not inferior to you.
Who doesn’t know the things you are talking about?[a]
4 I am a laughingstock to my[b] friends,
by calling on God, who answers me.[c]
The righteous and upright man is a laughingstock.
5 The one who is at ease holds calamity in contempt
and thinks it is prepared for those whose feet are slipping.
6 The tents of robbers are safe,
and those who provoke God are secure;
God’s power provides this.[d]
7 But ask the animals, and they will instruct you;
ask the birds of the sky, and they will tell you.
8 Or speak to the earth, and it will instruct you;
let the fish of the sea inform you.
9 Which of all these does not know
that the hand of the Lord has done this?
10 The life of every living thing is in His hand,
as well as the breath of all mankind.
11 Doesn’t the ear test words
as the palate tastes food?
12 Wisdom is found with the elderly,
and understanding comes with long life.
13 Wisdom and strength belong to God;
counsel and understanding are His.
14 Whatever He tears down cannot be rebuilt;
whoever He imprisons cannot be released.
15 When He withholds the waters, everything dries up,
and when He releases them, they destroy the land.
16 True wisdom and power belong to Him.
The deceived and the deceiver are His.
17 He leads counselors away barefoot
and makes judges go mad.
18 He releases the bonds[e] put on by kings
and fastens a belt around their waists.
19 He leads priests away barefoot
and overthrows established leaders.
20 He deprives trusted advisers of speech
and takes away the elders’ good judgment.
21 He pours out contempt on nobles
and disarms[f] the strong.
22 He reveals mysteries from the darkness
and brings the deepest darkness into the light.
23 He makes nations great, then destroys them;
He enlarges nations, then leads them away.
24 He deprives the world’s leaders of reason,
and makes them wander in a trackless wasteland.
25 They grope around in darkness without light;
He makes them stagger like drunken men.
I need some Holy Spirit power, because I just want to be lazy and watch sports. I’ve tried so many times to overcome sin on my own. Anyone want to guess how many times I’ve been successful?
Job 13
13 Look, my eyes have seen all this;
my ears have heard and understood it.
2 Everything you know, I also know;
I am not inferior to you.
3 Yet I prefer to speak to the Almighty
and argue my case before God.
4 But you coat the truth with lies;
you are all worthless doctors.
5 If only you would shut up
and let that be your wisdom!
6 Hear now my argument,
and listen to my defense.[a]
7 Would you testify unjustly on God’s behalf
or speak deceitfully for Him?
8 Would you show partiality to Him
or argue the case in His defense?
9 Would it go well if He examined you?
Could you deceive Him as you would deceive a man?
10 Surely He would rebuke you
if you secretly showed partiality.
11 Would God’s majesty not terrify you?
Would His dread not fall on you?
12 Your memorable sayings are proverbs of ash;
your defenses are made of clay.
13 Be quiet,[b] and I will speak.
Let whatever comes happen to me.
14 Why do I put myself at risk[c]
and take my life in my own hands?
15 Even if He kills me, I will hope in Him.[d]
I will still defend my ways before Him.
16 Yes, this will result in my deliverance,
for no godless person can appear before Him.
17 Pay close attention to my words;
let my declaration ring in your ears.
18 Now then, I have prepared my case;
I know that I am right.
19 Can anyone indict me?
If so, I will be silent and die.
20 Only grant these two things to me, God,
so that I will not have to hide from Your presence:
21 remove Your hand from me,
and do not let Your terror frighten me.
22 Then call, and I will answer,
or I will speak, and You can respond to me.
23 How many iniquities and sins have I committed?[e]
Reveal to me my transgression and sin.
24 Why do You hide Your face
and consider me Your enemy?
25 Will You frighten a wind-driven leaf?
Will You chase after dry straw?
26 For You record bitter accusations against me
and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
27 You put my feet in the stocks
and stand watch over all my paths,
setting a limit for the soles[f] of my feet.
28 Man wears out like something rotten,
like a moth-eaten garment.
Amen!!!
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
