- James Kearny sang in the exclusive Yale Whiffenpoofs club and shares stories from his world travels, his conversion to Christianity and, today as a pastor, his battles with the demonic.
This is the best interview Eric has done so far; I have watched them all. Some several times. What is unique here is the profundity and simplicity of the discussion which speaks to the common man - of which I am certainly one. Please keep these interviews going. PRAISE GOD FOR WHAT HE IS DOING HERE.
I did the outreach with Pastor James and his team in Cap Hill neighborhood several years ago. I am glad that he is still doing it.
It's amazing a guest can get a word in edgewise!
I’m beginning to think it’s arrogance instead of just a personality trait the way he talks over everyone. Wish he’d just shut up (and stop the corny jokes) and let the guests talk!
@@LH-ot5rk - I don't usually listen to Metaxas because he is such a poor interviewer, but I respect James Kearny and wanted to hear him. His video, "How I woke up to the reality of Spiritual Warfare" is one of my favorite videos here.
I would have loved to have heard 109 minutes of what was talked about in the last 10 minutes.
Thank you for this interview with James Kearny.
Please have him back. This interview was mesmerising in a wonderfully eye-opening way. Oh gosh, just loved this. It really has spoken to me. ❤❤❤
- This was one of the best episodes ever by you Eric !!!
Wonderful interview. James was our pastor for awhile before he left to return to Seattle. Praying for his ministry in Seattle. Thanks for this Eric. Blessings.
Eric, pls let ur guests talk without interrupting
Lol. Yup that was my bug bear too. But I suppose if you’re listening to it for the first time, you’d want to make sure you heard it right the first time.. it’s a pretty amazing testimony!
Eric, carpentry was a large part of Kearny's ministry. The honest details with which he describes his life are oxygen for the soul. Great to see you back on "The Tubes."
Carpentry is a trade, not a ministry.
...very first American Mainline Protestant, I've ever heard, to acknowledge the existence of the Evil spiritual realm and powers👿👹🧞♀👺💀🧞♂👽🤡...he's also the first American Mainline Protestant Pastor, I've heard (in a very long time), who seems to believe in the Bible📖✨...quite a refreshing fellow
Eric, you have such interesting guests. I wish you wouldn't talk over them.
Eric, we love you. I love your books and I love your writing but I want to hear from James Kearny and you keep cutting him off. Let me say in the kindest way, please let your guests speak. We already know about you. We want to learn about him. Thank you. ❤
It's not Dom De Luise the funniest of men, but it's rather Eric Metaxas :-) My God he's hilarious, I'm a fan of his interviews. James Kearny was such a great guest, so charming and I could have listened to him for hours !
Hi -- Would you please post the website J. Kearney referenced? Thank you for this interview; I come a PCA background and was considering switching to Catholicism even though I am not Catholic, but simply b/c they seem to be the only religious organization who addresses these issues mentioned. I also really loved the part about the carpentry experience as "grounding" to balance out being too much in the head. I think about that all time for myself and others and the implications of being 'too much in the head." It was so interesting to hear this from a PCA pastor! Can wait for interview Part II.
Waaaaayyyy too rushed. Please have him back.
So great!! Thank you
Isaiah 30:21 says, “And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, 'This is the way, walk in it,' when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.”
Eric and guest like never before, but like usual....does that make sense?
The interviewer likes the sound of his own voice
Maybe James will write a book about his testimony/life.
"It was super illegal" This is a VAST Understatement. Its like saying The Atlantic Ocean is A Tad Moist.
first time on this site. Way to much interruption from the host. Let the guy give his testimony......Please. gave up in five minutes.
My math says six kids total. How did you work out your child support obligations ?
25 minutes in the picture froze but the timer kept going..😒go figure.
What’s next? A Yalie group hug? Get on with it.
How did he go from Catholic to Presbyterian? His parents Catholic? His family of origin, Catholic?
Sounds like he wouldn't even exist except for Catholic church pro life teaching.
The movie FATSO. Yes.....hilarious. When Dom calls his DIET SPONSORS !! You're right, Eric.
I'm so interested in Dr. Kearny's story, but Mr. Metaxas' style of constant interruption extremely frustrating. At 15:55, I gave up. I suspect it is a personal shortcoming on my part. Good luck and God bless.
It is not. The interviewer is horrendous.
SYNCHRONICITY IN THE SINGULARITY.
I can’t watch this channel. I’ve tried several times. Eric interrupts constantly. Rarely allows for a story to build momentum.
Why would the holy spirit make anyone a protestant when everyone in heaven is a Catholic?
Totally unedifying. Sorry, I waited the whole interview and thought the night would end with a great sense but disappointed. Real teaching from puritan reform preaching would have saved your guest years of trouble and kept him with a sound mind.
Mr Metaxas, I get it that this is your show! But can you be less boorish? Let your guest speak! Don't be a mike hog!
He gets to the part (finally), where he has his "saved" experience, and he provides no description of the actual experience. Just glosses over it, like it was a mental exercise, a ritual, not an actual conversion experience in Light. I find fault with protestant Christianity in this regard. No actual mystical revelatory experience, just the belief that because they did the thing that one time, they "got saved". And that that one moment, regardless of how shallow or deep, or imaginary, will grant them immortality. Sorry, no. God requires that you fully integrate with his being, being transformed from above (which is what the correct translation of "born again" means. "Born from above," not Born "again," because these words are so similar in the original language, that even Nicodemus was at first confused. You will not inherit the kingdom of heaven, permanently, until the totality of your being is transformed from above, and this takes daily spiritual devotion for a long time. Reference the commitment and devotion of the highest Catholic mystics, and their lives, or those of the greatest of Yogis. This process takes place incarnation after incarnation. You will not be translated into your eternal nature by simply bending the knee once, and hopefully at least feeling the holy spirit. You will have to sacrifice your entire life and being to God. All that you are. And you will know and feel that this is taking place as your carnal consciousness is displaced with infinite being. You will though if a devoted soul rise to the etheric heaven world between embodiments, as with NDEs, so that you may have a nourishing spiritual respite before reincarnating.
Incarnation?
@@andrewjames8980 who peaches a works based salvation?
Or are you just confused?
Huh?
My mother turned me to you. First time I have ever seen ya and this interview was amazing! One thing though, you need to let the person you are interviewing SPEAK!! You interrupt way to much. Even still you now have a new subscriber and follower. Now I need to watch everything else and get caught up on your work!
I agree, Eric is rude to interrupt such a good guest.
