This teaching today made do the hardest thing today. Forgive someone. Something that sounds so easy to do, turns out to be the hardest thing for me. After watching this sermon, I got up and forgive. I feel so light on my feet, like this weight was lifted off me. Thank you Again for such an amazing sermon!!!

[@jamesparson]

Maybe they did something you shouldn't forgive.

[@handydan5150]

@@jamesparson: Forgiving someone who has wronged you is a gift you give yourself. Before you argue with me, figure out the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation. "Difference" is a mathematical term, here.

I have really been blessed by this warrior series. Craig your words have penetrated my mind and heart in a way the I am now allow Christ to move mountains in my heart placed there by years of really self pity. I didn’t have the encouragement of my parents growing up and I felt left out and left behind by my family. I am now a father of 3 beautiful children and a husband to the most amazing wife of 11 years. These videos have encouraged me to be a warrior not just in my own walk but in my families as well. Thanks and God Bless you.

[@life.church]

Thank you so much for sharing this, Brian. I am so thankful the Lord has used this series to speak to your heart. Praying for you and your family as you stand firm in your confidence and faith in Jesus!

im a youth leader at our church and im losing my passion pls pray for me. im a wounder warrior now :'(

[@luism.5568]

God can heal your wounds. You just have to believe in him.

[@zachwen8922]

Hey mate, I strongly encourage you to speak with your youth pastor. This may or may not be your calling, perhaps there is another area in the church that you can consider serving in. I was never super passionate like some, but then I see changes in the kids for a long time to come, YOU have to look BIGGER in your vision for what you do. Pray for clarity in your passion and calling. I will also pray for you.

[@life.church]

Father I pray for this youth leader. I pray as my friend takes solitude with You, spending time in Your presence where there is fullness of joy, that their passion and strength be renewed for these youth. In Jesus name amen.

When I found my father in 2010 by using a friend's facebook.. I told my father that I found and contacted my Grandmother and my Bailey family invited my boy and I to meet family for the first time.. my father's first response was that I need to be patient and most likely I'll be accepted!! At the age 26.. all I said was I been patient my whole life and my door will always be open with nothing but love!!

[@colleenhaywood4060]

at 19 years old. I was called to be a warrior of God because I danced in God's eye view in my bedroom in secret on Sunday morning we went to Church and a prophet spoke and said you were in a inch from death you were supposed to be a fallen star you may have lost everything but you will regain everything back you are a mighty warrior of God and you have a body of a dancer keep on dancing don't stop once I pull you out of foster care you will get married and you will have a baby you'll become the next Moses and lead the people but when others tell you to stop laughing don't stop just keep on laughing cause when you pull out of this world you will have the last laugh!!!!!!!

[@workingken4268]

Its so amazing that our Lord puts his supposed for his kids his characteristics in women and in the men of his creations

[@robbiebailey155]

It's so crazy what he's said about the bully.. I would go all night long to a man beating my mother all night many nights. At the age of 10 I was new at a school didn't have a haircut, had hand me down nike shoes that had pink on them and I remember a kid always trying to hurt me without understanding what Im going through.. he would tell the class!! Look at him meaning I was pitifully not ok.. I would be using the bathroom and he would push me.. I finally had enough and let my anger out and told the teacher to fuck of for not protecting me.. I then walked out of that school. I prayed for death as a child.. and I became lukewarm and did not give a shit if I were a sinner. I created prayers to god I did not choose to be here God you chose me this is what you get.. well many years later I am fighting WW3 to get my soul to heaven!! I will always protect anyone who is in need.. I been finding peace. I'm truly feeling peace and God thank you for helping this pastor craig speak the right words

[@life.church]

Life throws things at us that we do not understand and can't make sense of. That's why it is SO important to lean on the peace of God in those things - and I am so glad you have found that peace in Him again! Praying for continued peace, trust and understanding through Jesus for you, Robbie! -CW

Wait. "We're close today because we forgave each other, because the wound healed." Really? Did you forgive each other because the wound healed? Or did the wound heal because you forgave each other? Serious question. Not being pedantic.
