Dear Russell, I read about you in Tim Alberta's recent book. As a non-Christian I would like to express my admiration and support of the work you do. I've watched a couple of your shows and enjoyed your guests and the conversation. Your love shines through. 🙏

As a Christian, I appreciate your comment! I also appreciate how Russell and his guests talk honestly about us and our churches.

Mr Moore I really enjoy your show. When the young man was talking about these chaotic, new churches, I think they dont have lasting appeal because they are a show. They do not feel real to me. I need my Sunday morning peace. I attend an Independant Methodist church. It is beautiful, the sanctuary is dimly lit and it is peaceful. We do have our moments when the praise band rocks out, but they are countered by old hymms and peaceful piano music. Our congregation ranges from 90s to infants with lots of preschool and grade school kids. We follow a traditional order of worship. From time to time I go to the Catholic Church with my daughter. I love their service. It is ancient and despite what many protestants believe abd fervently preach they do know Jesus. He is the main focus of their service. Anyway I really do enjoy your show. Thanks for being thoughtful and leve

It would be really cool to hear more about what John Mark means about his shadow and shadow work.

There are some clear edits in this video, cuts in John's comments. What was edited out?

Hospital workers are often working nights & weekends… how can the church better at reaching that group & helping them experience Sabbath w/a very atypical work week?

I appreciate the effort put into editing the material. However, I believe that the unedited version would be more constructive and clear. Could you please provide the unedited version? Thank you.

Perhaps reading the book may help.

@@richhalmekangas8231 Hey Rich, thank you so much for your suggestion. I have read the book, just as you recommended, but I'd still like to hear the unedited version too. John Mark is an amazing communicator, and I believe it would be good for this audience to listen to his complete train of thought. Just my two cents.

John Mark Comer kept mentioning sabbath rest, over and over. To quote Andrew Farley, I really believe he's "flirting with Moses while cheating on Jesus".

@androidery1999 10 днів тому

I've been listening to John a lot and he really pushes that need for "rest" but I haven't heard it in a legalistic was but more of in a "We really need it" kind of way.

Someone once told me “I don’t need to practice it, I learned it and have it down pat. I don’t practice piano either. I just play it now.” I loved it…lol not a fan of the phrase “practicing Christian.”

@rob4920 18 днів тому

I think the use of the word "practicing" is used differently here than how we use when describing something like what we might do in preparation for a big game in sports. Using practicing here has more to do with Christianity being practical. Kind of like Christianity is not just something we think about, it's something we live out.

When describing Contemplative prayer, they left out biblical examples of it. I can find examples of it in Buddhism and the New Age Movement. That should be a sign for true Christians to avoid it. Prayer in the Bible is communicating with God. You do not communicate with someone by sitting in silence and repeating a word. To be a practicing Christian, take the advice of Philippians 4:6 and Galatians 5:16, communicate with God and be obedient to His lead. Philippians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. and Galatians 5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.

Hi there. Could you share the source of the information? Is it posted anywhere?

@@CharlieCaballero Just google their name, city, and search their address. Then type the address into Zillow to find out what they paid for their home. I could post you the link I found, but that would be doxxing. It will take you 45 seconds to find it yourself, though. Ol' Russ has himself a nice million dollar mansion in Brentwood, TN. Selling out pays well, apparently, even for reverends.
