3 Reasons Why You Should (not) Go To Church

Twice a year I talk about the most important part of my life ❤️

Videos that answer questions about Jesus and Christianity.

DISCLAIMERS 🙃
🙏 It may be worth watching to the end of the video to get the full picture of what I’m saying :)
🙏 Even if you 100% disagree with me, I still 100% respect you and your right to have your own beliefs. I’m just a beggar telling another beggar where to find bread!
🙏 If you do end up going to church, I suspect you’ll find it fairly underwhelming. I mean, you may get a sudden life-changing mind-blowing experience, but probably not, which I think is a good thing. You’re not pressing a teleport button; you’re starting an exciting journey! And what a ride it’ll be.
🙏 Many of you live in places where there aren’t churches around you. If you really want to know Jesus, I know you’ll find a way. I know God will find a way!
🙏 I’m not making this video for money (I turned ads off, if YouTube still places them I’m not gaining anything from it) or for subscribers (I usually lose subs with videos like these).
🙏 Objection: there are so many churches, which one do I go to? I hoped that through my video I painted a picture of what a faithful church looks like. Welcoming to all people, focus on the Bible and Jesus, open to questions, true love and care for those inside and outside the church, etc. Honestly, I think you’ll instinctively know if it’s a place where you belong.
🙏 I've been accused in the past of tricking kids into following an innocent cubing channel then suddenly shoving Jesus in their faces. I hope you can see that’s not my heart or intention. I hope only that you guys get the best that life can offer, and I’ve found that that only happens when you discover Jesus for yourself. There's nothing better! Also if this isn’t the stuff you want to see on YouTube, you’re very welcome to stop watching :)

🙏 High fives to those who made it to the end of this as well! Clearly you like reading fine print haha. Appreciate you all.

I grew up in the church, and I have to admit, as a child it wasn't always my favorite thing. But as I grew up, I began to get more involved, I saw people become changed simply by becoming stronger in their faith. I decided to become more involved, more engaged. WOW how it has changed me. I am currently in a leadership team helping teens through their Confirmation journey in the Catholic church. I found my family. Seeing these kids grow in their faith and find themselves has been amazing, and I have made it my goal to help these kids have the same experience I did, or possibly even a better one. Seeing them open up is truly a powerful experience. There are still some days where I don't feel like going to mass, but... I feel like that can happen to anyone. As soon as I find myself there, those negative feelings quickly fade as I feel I am in a safe space, filled with brothers and sisters all there to hear the Word of God. Thanks for this video Tingman, and HAPPY EASTER!! ❤🙏

As a fellow cuber and Christian, I, myself, go to church. I love your humility, that even though you have a good and big channel, are a much better cuber than I am, and are incredibly blessed, you still know acknowledge your own human errors, as everyone should. As someone I know once said, "Wisdom is not knowledge. It is knowing and acknowledging God is above us all."

Well said my friend! Happy Easter everyone!

Hi Tingman! I'm an atheist, but I love that you share your faith freely and I love that you're doing it so gracefully. Happy Easter!

[matheusrocha]

This is so true, great message Tingman! Happy Easter everyone 🎉

[smilecuberepeat]

I love the message in this video! I make sure to pray and thank god for the amazing day that I have had every night before I sleep. And as someone with a grandad as a pastor I can confirm that at most churches everyone is beautiful and willing to be with you through the happiness and not so joyful times. Thanks for this beautiful reminder of a video Ming and happy Easter!

[crayzcubing]

Thank you for these videos!! I 100% agree with what you said. Sometimes, in church, you need to hear the hard things, but those hard things are what can really show you your own life. As a fellow Christian, I find that in the church, I have joy knowing that the peolpe around me are my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Happy Easter to you too!

As a cuber and catholic I can admit that church wasn’t my favorite thing, but as I got older I started going to youth group and joined my core team to plan vacation bible school. I then realized that mass was more than just sitting and listening. I watched a talk from one of my favorite priests, Fr. Mike Schmitz. He said that not just the priest is saying the mass, he is guiding us to say the mass. Happy Easter and never fall away from the church!

Happy Easter everyone! As a fellow Christian cuber, these videos are always interesting to watch. If I could add something, it’s that we don’t only go to church to receive, but to give. To share with others the blessings and joy we’ve received during the week. We’re there to equally be a blessing to those around us, and be blessed by them. Even after a really bad week, it’s always a relief to go to church knowing we can give our burdens to God and enjoy spending time with Him and with our church family. Hope you all have a lovely weekend 😊

Respect to all people who have religions 🙏

I stepped away from the church after my grandfather passed away and I realized our church was full of not so nice people. I am no longer a Christian because of my personal beliefs, but I’m always appreciative of Christians that spread positivity and show redeeming qualities within the religion! Thank you for being a positive representation of what Christianity should be!

[tpermofficial]

These are some of my favorite videos you make. It has always been hard to find a church my family enjoys being military, but once we found one we like we go to it as much as we can.

[Qbert-flp]

Wasn't expecting this video but I'm very grateful of this video we need more people like you man

[jacobboydtabletennis]

Thank you so much for this! It makes me so happy that there are people like you in this world! Have a happy Easter!

[aarongill]

wow, thank you. I am glad you have the confidence to share your love of Jesus Christ to the world. ON POINT! I some times find it hard to do the same so thank you for the example.

[olloturtle]

hey man I really appreciate how you have kept on doing this I feel like so many creators start to share less and less of their beliefs in order to fit in more and be more "exiting" but you have persevered each time and stuck with what is true to you and I really love that. HE IS RISEN!

[thebluebutterfly]

This has bought to me tears! I read through what you wrote also. I was only saved a year ago after following new age spiritual path and it’s been the best experience but also hugely eye opening that really hits that the truth is with God in the way so many are triggered. I echo everything you stand for, you are my brethren. I was raised as a Christian but turned from God because of church and don’t currently go because my eyes are fully open Praise the Lord and I am wanting to find one that loves God and His word above all else, not a perfect one with perfect people, just ones that know the bible. 😅That knows that he is ALL we need. I could talk with you for hours about this. In the same time window my middle son has become a speed cuber and one of your followers, but doesn’t believe. So, from a mother of a speed cuber, I want to just let you know I appreciate your honesty about your faith. There is no greater time to show our loyalty to Him above offending those who don’t believe. I wouldn’t say you have shoved anything in anyone’s face. When you have a relationship with God only you know it so I totally get why those who don’t have the relationship don’t get it but it doesn’t make it ok to make such accusations when actually there is a simple misunderstanding. This has touched me. I Praise the Lord God for this beautiful blessing of a video. I’ll pray that perhaps one day our paths will cross, if not on earth, maybe even in the kingdom. We are living in such times! Thank you! God bless❤️🙏🏻❤️

I loved this video! I am a cuber and a Christian so it’s good to know that there are plenty of people who I can share beliefs with. I’d love to see more videos like this brother

[jenmrotzek]

Thank you so much for making this video ❤
