This is the type of spirit that can drive men from alcohol and drugs to raising a family and protecting our nation from thugs.
It's nice to be pleasantly surprised 😊
Keep it up.
Spiritual poetry, love it. This is how we get the message out.
God given oratory.
Now that is a real nordic hero driving inspiration.
The true human spirit. Amen
"Nordic" is a Euphemism for Far Right.
@@NikoHL Depends on where one is born I guess.
@@NikoHL I’d say only for the ignorant or far left, oh I’m being redundant.
@@NikoHL No, it just means what it says. Just like if someone is a real eastern or southern hero. Thankfully there are heroes everywhere, but this man happens to be from the northern part of the world.
I've got chills. Well done.
Goosebumps!
Freckles
I love this man and his message! Bless you!
"And generations from now, they will not know our names, but we pray that they have been carried on our backs and spurred on by our claim that there must be more, there must be more"
Powerfully prophetic
Wow, tears of joy. I was not prepared for that, thank you very much for the beautiful words Joshua 🙏
This is unbelievably inspiring!
That was not a speech. That was a performance. This man is an artist. Well done.
Stunning, i was unprepared for that.
This was phenomenal.
There must be more.
Goosebumps.
Hearing this makes me emotionally hopeful ❤
“There must be more” ❤❤❤
This is great stuff. God blessed Josh, glad that he shared with us.
I have only words. Words to describe the indescribable, to express the inexpressable. The rest is faith.
I want to attend a conference like this… However, it is such a treat to be able to have this shared so those of us who couldn’t make it can still receive the gifts like this… and at no cost but time. WOW
This was the first one and by invitation only, world leaders coming together to discuss a path forward. Hopefully, they will all return home and hold ARC conferences locally soon.
Joshua, your truth brings light and tears to my eyes every time I listen to you - Joshua you are a gift to humanity.
All choked up… I inhale deeply on your optimism. The rally cry of generations.
great start to ARC..... Thankyou Jordan Peterson and all the others involved in bringing this alliance to the world. This (ARC) is what we desperately need. Genuine facts and leadership. Now it is up to us, the public, to do our part. Spread the word, help grow the "Alliance for Responsible Citizenship", and do YOUR part to help bring about a better more positive world for all of humanity. Put an end to the distopian vision offered by the elites of Davos and the WEF gang. Bring individual Freedom and responsibility back to the forefront of a free and prosperous society. Thankyou.
Beautiful
This brought tears to my eyes. Bravo.
❤😅
One love to this ❤
There is more. A people without God will cease to be a people. There is more.
Excellent.
Thank you for listening, we are glad you enjoyed!

"There must be more!". God bless ARK
It should be there slogan. Imagine the opposition to it: "Nooo. There is no point or purpose. No meaning. We are just animals killing the planet." We'd respond with: We know, there must be more.
Im certainly not an academic or intellectual, I’m “working class” as I feel is aconsequence of my inattention to educate myself to higher understanding of things. I do have life experience including being a father and a veteran. Josh bought me to tears with this….I was stunned by the raw emotion….powerful expressionism. As a consequence I find myself watching all the conference discussions. I find myself writing down the names of presenters and what works they have produced….I find myself wanting to improve my education and understanding….wanting to regain our story…..
Bless you Josh…..
Thank you so much Phil for sharing your experience. Reading your comment profoundly moved us because our ambition for ARC has always been that it should not just for the academics, intellectuals, and politicians, but for every person who wants to be part of the solution and change in their culture.
Hola!
In the realm where ideas take flight,
A platform emerged, shining bright.
Engaging voices, minds so keen,
Building bridges where they've never been.
Canada's heartbeat, passions aflame,
Citizens' thoughts, none to blame.
Temperature checked, sentiments soar,
Together we dream, aim for more.
Innovation's canvas, colors so true,
A future we craft, me and you.
With wit and wisdom, we take our leave,
Adios for now, let's continue to believe.
😁😇
Just brilliant. Praise be to God!
There MUST be more. Amen.
powerful, young men need to hear this...
I did stop believing in histories and poems, because I founded good just in prayers. But this give me hope to unite this art with life, because faith is not put apart.
I got chills
Wow x Just Wow x 😍 👏 🙏
Wow! I didn't know what to expect and started listening to this in the background and the it gripped me and I was so caught up with emotion and inspiration. Thank you this was beautiful!
Amazing poetry piercing my soul.
That was a TONIC for the soul.
Emboldened - love it!
There is more. Thank you for the poetry. Appreciations from Apia,Samoa.
I don't speak English but this moved me more than mere words ever could.
A sacred verbal formula of the future 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is just absolutely fantastic 💪
That was .... Beautiful
Heavy chills.
Goosebumps...
Powerful!
Wow❤️❤️❤️
We forget in our times of excess, comfort and relative peace & prosperity what it was like for our forefathers across all generations to do the work of survival & nation building.
All generations prior to this one had it HARDER.
In our softness, we MUST NOT FORGET there is work to be done.
BACK BREAKING,
GUT WRENCHING,
FORWARD PROGRESSION WORK
for honest hands & earnest hearts.
And if we DO NOT do it, our children & the generations to come WILL pay the price we were too lethargic, too lack luster to spare them from.
Extraordinary!!!! Where has this chap been hiding? And there must be more of him.
Agreed! There’s more coming
Powerful 🌅🙏🏼🌎🌍🌏
This is brilliant
I didn't think it could be done in 3 minutes, and I was proven wrong.
Wow a prophet for this age
Just wahooo thanks!
Need this in my playlist!
Wonderful to see this. I've enjoyed this man's voice and his message each morning this week on Lectio 365.
THIS. On point, on all points Joshua 🙌🏽✨🙌🏽
Wow...wow...WOW!!! goosebumps, this reached right down to my soul......
WONDERFUL! Thank you for this.
Wow! I haven't been this emotionally impacted by a work of art since I heard Handel's Messiah live in person for the first time. This is true beauty and what art can and should be.
Love this demonstration of Courage and Truth. Amen brother!
Wow--goosebumps/ sharing.
This has brought me to tears, so moving and inspiring.
God bless the prophets and the preachers.

The screechers have the mainstream media, but lack any kind of talent like this.
Poetic, clever word play and unpredictable with a pattern.
Me likey.
Wow!....
Inspiring, powerful impactful!
There must be more there just be more!
This hit hard!
Representative of all the contributions: Wow! And I admit, I'm officially jealous of everyone who got to participate.
WOW ! WONDERFUL !
Powerful
nice🙏
Thank you
AMEN!
I'm impressed with his performance, very moving indeed. I hope the conference went well. Thanks so much for uploading all the speeches for a wider audience to enjoy. Your subs have gone up from 53.1k a few hours ago when I started watching to 54k now at 9am on a bleak Saturday morning in north east England. So the message is spreading. Would love to get involved somehow.
Wow!
Amazing
This has the Holy Spirit written all over it.
"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."
C.S. Lewis
Look at the results everyone. Results, please.
God bless you brother!
🔥🔥🔥
Just « wow »…. YES!
❤
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
😂 so powerful, passion lives. 🙏
🙏
Beautiful! Please put the artist's social media links in the description! He deserves to be heard.
Please also upload the poem from Wednesday, Nov 1. what an inspiring performance!!!
Thank you
Hot dang that was/is good....
And I thought Peterson is the master prestidigitator and juggler of words.
🤘🤙
In AW!!!
Nice tattoos

Fantastic poem. Has echoes of Ren’s Money Game. Just a bit sad to hear ‘paganism’ used synonymously for hedonism. The former was a disparaging term applied under the Holy Roman Empire to any faith system that wasn’t theirs.
Jesus Christ...."love thy neighbour as thyself."......The other one...... "kill unbelievers."
Who will be invited to 'perform' at the next event, a rapper?
the quintessence of cringe. 👌
I love the energy but why does he sound like a council estate mandem init blad?
Being heavily tattooed is not compatible with true Christian humility, imo. Yes, I get the irony of my comment about humility.
Good poem but the african accent unsettles me
🙄 nice T shirt Muslim white guy
