Just found this author two months ago- Changing my life

[@davidyoung3116]

I need to show grace to you at this point. I have read most of your books over the years. I loved every one of them. I have recommended and given them to friends and family members. I was also a Southern Baptist pastor for over 50 years. I need to admit that anything you say about us is probably true somewhere. We do believe some things are wrong and some things are right. But even if we don't always practice it, the heart of our teaching is the gospel of forgiveness and grace.

What comes to mind when you hear the word Grace...........JOY

[@JohnThomas-lp3rf]

Profound! You have changed me a little more to being like Jesus Phillip. Thank you.

I love his book Dissapointment with God

[@JamesStonley]

I love the story at 25:45 I heard him tell this many years ago at Greenbelt and It's stuck with me ever since.

Re: 17:00: "May my life bring joy to God's heart and bring God's heart to the world."

Great speech! I am from Ukraine. We still have a war started by Russia in 2014, because of going to Europe's future from USSR's past. This is one of the worst time for our economy by the best time for the Christian church.

[@Alwizcaliteach]

God bless you. We watch with great interest knowing our corrupt USA politicians have brought more instability than ever before to Europe and Ukraine. Hoping and praying that you are staying strong and still able to receive internet. God bless you, and God bless Ukraine

[@nik.shuliahin]

@@Alwizcaliteach Thank you for your prayers. Actually, we got more help from the USA and Europe right now than ever before. Hopefully, the Lord will turn this season of Russia's aggression into something good.

Great message: sharing kindness (grace) with others and living by the message of the gospels rather than the world (little screen vs big screen).

This moistened my eyes.." Grace on telemarketers ."

At 25:45 is Philip Yancey’s favorite picture of the church; a poignant example from the Orange Revolution started by deaf people.

[@baqashemeth8686]

The simplicity that is in Messiah (2 Cor 11:3) is to walk/live as He walks/lives (1 Jn 2:6) an example, that we should follow His steps Who did no sin (1 Pe 2:21,22). Sin is violating the Law (1 Jn 3:4). Walking in the Spirit prevents that (Rom 8:4). Too simple?

I love PY and his message. Unfortunately NG approach echoes those Christians who put me off seeking when I was younger

[@urasam2]

A whole video on grace and he starts by refusing to define it. Good start, Harpo.
