Trusting God that Hope is on the Way - Toby McKeehan (TobyMac)

[@mkathrynblacker5960]

What really struck me was: In his grief, Toby wanted to be done with the music business, but how God gently, gently brought him back to it through the grief. He is so kind!!

[@heistruth2865]

Amen! Keyword is GENTLY. He gently guides us...Sadly we as people aren't always so gentle.....❤❤

[@SackclothRemnantPodcast]

The enemy attacks the family. So many of us are praying for those we love. May the Lord bring home the prodigals and save our children from this dying world. Lift them up!

[@tylerhinman8842]

they really do

[@aprilbarstow8484]

To those who have lived through the tragedy, struggles, and paralysis of addiction and the inevitibility of the final consequence of losing a child: The paralytic at the pool of Bethseda said yes to Jesus after 38 years if wanting someone to help him get into the 'healing waters' of the pool. Jesus said, "Do you want to be healed?" He said yes to Jesus. My son said yes at 38 years old ten years ago when he went home with Jesus. I now know that was His plan. My son felt no one could help him in his paralysis of addiction, but Jesus did. And, now he is free, whole, and healthy. Not that the agonizing pain is not real, but this scripture is a soothing balm. 🙏💔

[@lancesherman8673]

Toby is so honest and open with people. What a sensitive man. Love him.

[@sharonhosea6483]

My nephew was an amazing musician, and a believer, but the demons of anxiety and tormented him😢 He went to Jesus. Until it happens to you personally, it is impossible to explain. So many emotions. One day, I saw Toby on video giving his witness, followed by his performance of "you're the goodness in my life.." That song is anointed and I thank Him from the depth of my heart in Yeshua Jesus Beloved Name❤

[@loriconiglio3990]

This hits me to my core. My son passed at 25. Same circumstances. My son was a musician too. 💔💙

[@heistruth2865]

❤❤❤❤❤ so so sorry for your loss......

“Reading the Bible cover to cover has changed my life”…..I love this…. Romans 8:28 yes!! Thank you 4 sharing ❤

[@victoriajardine-naranjo644]

Awesome

[@micheleh5269]

Yes it changed mine too. It's how we read every other book

[@deborahd2936]

Toby is one of my favorite artists. My dad loved him. He committed suicide 3 years ago. Now when I hear Toby Mac I think of my dad’s last years of fighting. I feel pain and hope when I hear it.

[@zekitty1]

“We were either going to fall at the feet of the King or we were gonna run a million miles from Him.” I love how he kept referring to the love for King. Surrounding himself with people who love the King. The King is kind.

[@adanphu4325]

Without other Christians life is nearly impossible

[@mrs.b4573]

Toby I love the way you constantly call God King ❤

[@BlessedAssurance-lg6hv]

He’s not referring to Jesus Christ, who is actually The King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He is talking Freemason Illuminati garbage and worships that old devil who fell from heaven like lightning.

[@vickydauphinee8301]

This song is so right on. I lost my husband in 2020, mother in 2022 and my sister last month. This song has been helping me in my grief.

Praying now.

[@jclilstar1973]

Praise God for this message. In November 2022 my adult son took his life. If it wasn't for God being in my heart and life, i believe I would have lost my mind after my son passed. Gods been using me to love on others that have lost someone due to death. My life has been hard but during this brokenness God is helping me to grieve gracefully. Thank you Toby for your testimony.

[@trod3898]

Sorry for you loss!

[@meam80skids]

[@lb1460]

I'm so sorry for your loss. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted. He won't waste your pain. Will be praying for you.

[@hollyc.]

Your son is in heaven.

[@laceysutton142]

Thank you, Toby. I know you lost your boy at 21. Right now, you're giving me encouragement going through the loss of my baby girl. I was pregnant with identical twin girls, and I lost one of my girls suddenly at 6 months pregnant. I'm getting induced on November 7th at 34 weeks pregnant. I will be giving birth to my living baby girl, and my baby girl I lost 10 weeks before. The Lord met with me and gave me comfort with His presence the other night. That's what I'm hoping for my husband and I as we go through this combined joy and grief. Only the Lord can truly comfort us through this.

I've been a huge fan of Toby's since DC Talk. His music has made an impact on my life.

[@MissFrisky1221]

Saw him in concert just 6 days ago.... He certainly has the heart of a father and the heart of a servant.

[@knight1515]

I was in Canada at your Winnipeg show around when it happened. I had just became a Christian that year at age 29. Thank you for being so inspiring as a servant to the King. ❤️ I am so sorry for your loss 💕

[@vickyCA1643]

I love Toby Mac! He has such love for God and others. Bless you Toby!

[@erinkissling5192]

Wow. This is so powerful and raw. Thank you Toby!

[@slestage5725]

I am a grieving mom, my oldest son. I am also a worship musician in a small church. My walk with God also became different, it had to. Thank you for sharing with us. As hard as all this is, making my way through the Bible has been life changing and its my priority every day. Hugs from Joey’s momma in Maine❤

[@anuajihdeYahweh]

Dito he looked so hurt. I admire his honesty and willingness to talk about such a diffcult experience.

[@LisaTiller-qg4vy]

Jesus is the only truth. He knows our circumstance without us knowing. People run on emotion and that gets people in trouble.

[@carolynduggan7366]

Amen !

[@evewomensministry9590]

Our middle son went to Jesus, my husband almost never talked about his death. It wasn’t his way. So hearing this man openly share his grief is amazing! We need all types of people ❤

[@sherryallen1590]

I so needed this today....idk what my son is doing right now....he had recovered for 4 years off drugs and I am so afraid he is back on them. Thank you Toby

It's great to hear the story behind the story. As a widow, I have had the same experience of getting to know God is a deeper way than ever before. God IS so kind ~ and so personally loving and compassionate! He hovers over us, watching over us. His love is like NO other!

Toby has helped me through tremendous loss of a marriage and a break up shortly thereafter. Complete loneliness. My faith is shattered but I still listen to this man.

[@lucygale336]

I love tobys sounds ❤thanks for sharing 😊this was great 🫶

[@joannecatherinegabl1913]

Loved hearing TobyMac’s story of grief. I’m sure it is helping someone else to process their own with Christ by their side, or finally inviting Christ into it. I lost my dad and God loudly reminded me that I have an eternal Heavenly Father that will guide me spiritually now that my Earthly Father and mentor was in the presence of Jesus. I was a difficult mentee…my poor Dad. I am now grateful for the peace my Dad is now rewarded with.

Thank you for this honest interview. This is where the rubber meets the road, isn't it. I have listened to this interview going on 3xs now. Simply put, thank you for your honesty, the music which the Lord uses to heal and strengthen us as we worship him, and for your faithfulness as you and your family process and go through healing yourselves. What a powerful interview, whose seeds will grow in many of us! Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your story Toby! It's inspiring to see you remaining strong in the Lord after enduring the loss of your son. Your story your music and your song "21 years" all have touched me and helped me through my grief knowing someone else was staying strong and loving the lord after a horrible loss of a child/ young adult. I Unfortunately loss the love of my life my only 20 y.o. daughter Emily to an aggressive type of cancer 3 and a half years ago. I have leaned like never before on the Lord and he is so Amazingly loving and glorious!

AMEN! From the intro, something that changed my life for the better and forever was reading the bible - all the way through! This surprised 😮 me.

[@HansDiaz-x7n]

I can’t imagine the pain Toby went through nobody would wish to lose a child in certain situations. But I want to add something sometimes as Christians we forget God’s promises and the true life is not here true life starts in heaven and I’m sure Toby’s kid is now with the King so he shouldn’t be sad He will see his son when He calls him.

[@montegtaylor]

Wonderful interview!

[@bethkramer8581]

Thank you Toby. Going to make sure I read the Bible from front to back. Thanks for the encouragement. Also ty Focus on the Family

[@TobyQuan]

In the 90's he said that hope is on the way. In the 2000s he said that hope is on the way. In the 2010s he said that hope is on the way. In the 2020s hope is on the way. It never seems to get here, it's just something he continually says, and hopes that nobody will notice.

[@Kimberly-xe1lg]

I'm really struggling with the loss of my son and daughter.. it's a rollercoaster. I'm so tired and don't want to be here anymore. How can I? But I love Jesus. Where is He? Where was He?

[@RS-ww8jo]

Thank you all it did touch me too. I been trying to help a homeless guy, he’s living in a camper on my property. I was disappointed in him not trying like I thought he should and it started a bit of a argument. I was ready to make him leave. Then after feeling like I can’t be the judge of others not knowing and not always putting their all into trying to better himself. I will continue to try to help him the best I can to put the life back into his heart he needs. Thanks Toby I love your music ❤
