My childhood and home life was and is so broken - watching you and your two sons like this is just beautiful. The banter, the love, the facts - it's heartwarming and for a little bit, it felt like I was part of your family. Thank you.

[darlarousch]

Austin, when my daughter died this past December 9th, 2024. I believed God was being merciful by taking her home. She would never feel ill or feel rejection again. So I thank God for his mercy with my daughter . I really like listening to your question and answer period.

[AWESOME]

I shared your Christmas service at my work in Oklahoma and 4 people recieved their salvation. Hallelujah!! Thanks for being such a great teacher and spreading the Word and love of God!!

RE: about minute 46--I wholeheartedly agree with Pastor Austin when he said when bad things happen to you, don't run FROM God but run to and pursue Him. Having foolishly had a 10-year hissy-fit with God in which I walked away from Him & Church because I couldn't handle all the bad things that kept happening, the end result was that I learned exactly what Pastor Austin said: I should have run TO God even harder, not run from Him.

[Psalm]

Austin, I see God's gift of compassion in you in that you were so ready to be a pen pal to the person who asked @ 1:47 about being alone. I pray God will meet the questioner's need for comfort and hope. God bless you and be with you, Austin.

[manjumoses]

So amazed to hear Pastor's sons, so sound in theology and Bible knowledge. Thank you for answering some of my questions specially on Trinity though difficult. Thank you Pastor for setting yourself an example. Let your tribe live long!

[beatricekamiri]

Thankyou God for Pastor Gary who has been a great blessing to me from here in Kenya. May God honour you with long life and good health Pastor.

[neinacelebre]

That question about being alone and lonely for Pastor Austin, relate much. I am alone since birth, figuratively and literally. Thank God, so grateful that He is always with me. Love your answer Austin, I see your heart....❤

[danal.weaver]

Austin, I love your tender heart. It makes me cry at the depth of your understanding on loneliness.

[deeweb]

26:02 very uplifting and helpful hearing you talk about anxiety and depression. I suffer from it regularly and wonder, " What's the point?
I thank the person who asked the question.

[naomiwangari]

1john 3:20- this then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence whenever our hearts condemn us.For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. NIV

[Wendy-jczz]

Amen Tyler about depression and anxiety. Unbelievable what God did once I trusted Him completely and knew that the therapists and me weren’t doing it after years and thousands of dollars. Since God literally lifted anxiety so far from me that I don’t even remember what it’s like, well I am new, He doesn’t stop transforming me. Seek God and ask the Holy Spirit for help and oh my goodness gracious you will never be the same again, hallelujah, our God reigns.❤❤❤❤❤

[kathleenb]

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 29:05

[LIONOFTHETRIBEOFJUDAH-YESHUA]

Pray for people to leave the lies of catholchism, and come to Jesus. He's sufficient for your salvation. HE IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.
