A Village of Fathers Support A Son
Вставка

- A VILLAGE OF FATHERS: I paid to have my recruit Kaden’s initiation test into The Cave of Adullam Transformational Training Academy recorded so that he and his mother would have it for encouragement and memories. I had no I idea Kaden would say, “I wish my father was here.” Those words brought back a plethora of memories when I use to say, “I wish my father was here.” My father missed almost every event in my life, even all my football games except one. And the game he did attend, he was late, then criticized me for dropping a game winning touchdown. However by God's grace, we healed our relationship 7 years before he died, and I learned so much from him! As I fought through my tears to explain the symbolic display of God providing fathers in Kaden’s life, the LORD had me shift the order of men to where my disciple Chris A Norris would be last. This was for my heart and to symbolize He has chosen Chris as the one to lead the Cave of Adullam when it’s my time to step away. There’s truly NO ONE else I would feel at peace with leading the Cave of Adullam than him.
To Kaden’s mother Jenell: As I’ve stated before, you are one of the most committed and loving single mothers I have ever known! May the LORD continue to give you the grace and patience needed to mother Kaden in God’s will. I salute you my sister and you know we will always be here for you.
To Kaden's father: I love you and will always be here for you and your son. As I tell every father that entrusts his son to me... My goal is never to usurp your position, but to be your hands and feet on the mats, training and helping your son master the emotions that the devil will use against him.
To the boys and young men whose fathers are not actively engaged in your lives: Please do not harbor bitterness in your hearts and miss the men that God has strategically placed in your life to learn from like I did. I had a beautiful step father, the only man to teach me how to play sports. Unfortunately due to my desire to be loved by my father, I did not realize this until I spoke at my step father’s funeral. Trust me, the "fathers" are there. You just need to broaden your lens, so that you can see them.
To the fathers that aren't actively engaged in your child's life: Please know your children not only love you, but deeply need your love, affirmation, provision and protection. PLEASE KNOW that it’s only when you’re dead that it’s too late to be your child’s father. PLEASE do not allow anything, situation or emotion to hinder your effort of being actively engaged in their lives. I pray this video will encourage you to visit the wounds in your life that hinder your from being in your child’s. You do not have to be in your child’s house in order to be in his/her life. As my friend Phil Black of The Manhood Project says, "You don't have to be perfect, but you do need to be present." #bettertogether #savingboys #fathersday #lovefathers

I wish I had this as a boy. Heck I wish I had it now.
me too!!!!
Me too
Same...
Be the One.
Our father is right here.
The other kid at the end telling Kaden "you did a great job"
So powerful.
Man as a grown man, I must say, I have been moved to tears.
Who is cutting onions!?!?!
Thank You for what you are doing for our young men!
5 years on, someone is still cutting onions because my eyes are watering too 😢

I'm not crying, you're crying
2024, still in tears
Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement!
Salute & respect Sir, from Malaysia. ❤🤲
Shalom sir. You are truly an inspiration and a true servant of The Most High. May I ask what state you're in. I would love to meet you some day. Also, how can one support your ministry?
Am so glad I stumbled upon your channel. You are such an influential mentor for these children. Heck even for us viewers.
You have my full respect Mr. And so salute you
Thank YOU for making a difference.
You deserve them you're doing something special for these kids you're going to change their lives for the better and make the future a better place thank you
I'm not a religious person at all, but I fully believe that there are certain people who are chosen by their higher power to effectively communicate the Word of said higher power. Your relationship with your God is undeniably strong and what transpired in this video, I will never forget. Namaste, my brothers. ✌
Namaste
My god he look so happy at the end, you're helping these boys to connect with god and save their own souls, father or not
that last push up sums up this video
This type of fatherly leadership and sacrifice is exactly what the young men of this country need. I'm praying to see this multiply across the nation. Keep this up and God bless!
Thanks everyone for the encouraging comments. Shalom!
Salute Sir. Your sister from Malaysia.
As a single mom raising my children without a father figure in their lives, I'm tremendously grateful for your willingness to invest in these boys and their families. It's not easy to find men willing to shoulder even a portion of the responsibility of another man's children, let alone commit to helping them grow into men of integrity and good character and to model that behavior for them. Your organisation gives me hope that my children will someday find mentors, and eventually become mentors themselves. As someone else posted earlier, thank you for walking in your purpose.
watched "This is Us" TV show, and the show borrowed from your teachings to make an amazing and wonderful point about fatherhood and the community of men our sons need to grow and mature. the cast and producers referenced afterward that the idea came from a real martial arts dojo, and I wanted to check it out. long story, but really, just wanted to say how moved and in awe I am of what you are accomplishing with your students. thank you for bringing light into the lives of these kids.
Thank you for sharing.
Best show on TV and this DOJO and what these men are doing... just incredible.
My son’s dad isn’t in his life and it often makes me cry and breaks my heart. My son is going on 6 and he’s never been held by his dad. I just feel so bad... I cried through this whole video, I love what you did with this young man. Thank you for standing in the gap
Its beautiful what this guy is doing for these little guys. Absolutely phenomenal, I wish I couldve gone to him growing up.. additionally, i wish you and your son the best! ❤️❤️
I grew up without my dad but now that I'm a man I could never thank my mom enough for doing his job your son will realize this when he's older and he'll be the one crying thanking god for you @ Michelle burton
"Don't ask for a easy life ask for the strength to endure a hard one." Bruce Lee.
My mom was also a single mother. Teach your son how to repect a women and he won't repeat his father's mistakes. That is done by you and your interactions with your significant other. Not words but actions. I hope you will have the strength to endure.
Sending love your way Michelle! Be strong for him your happiness is the most important thing
As a man who's father was never there, and as a father now myself,, The Most High lead to me to this video, and it moved me to tears. Thank you for all that you do Mr. Jason Wilson, praise Yahweh...
Oh if only there was a cave in my area. You're doing a work that will span time to eternity not only with these young men but with those of us witnessing the phenomenal work that you're doing. I will be supporting your mission in the near future.
Todah Penny! Currently we are only in Detroit and I cannot refer to you a school that teaches similar. However due to the demand for replicating our teaching, we've relaunched our GoFundMe campaign so that we can create a model of our academy that can be scaled in other cities and countries. Here's the link to watch and please share - www.gofundme.com/cave313
Please "like" and follow our Facebook page facebook.com/cave313 because we will soon be offering live online training for boys, young men, men and parents! Prayerfully these trainings will suffice until we get a location in your area!
Cave313 All praises brother! Thanks for the info. These are the times I wish I were rich (as in money). I have started sharing the info and I pray YAH's richest blessings on your mission. Shalom
Princess Penny Trust me, I understand! Good news is that we have now raised $46,240! This is a very attainable goal. If 20,000 of the 80,303 people who follow our Facebook page gave $23, WE WOULD HAVE ENOUGH to purchase this building before it sells. So let's continue to put our faith into action and share 😊👉 www.gofundme.com/cave313
I cannot believe the beauty of these people.
Only under the guidance of men of good character will boys ever become men of good character themselves.
Total respect for what you are doing for these young boys.
I wish you strength to keep doing this for the years to come!
STRONG MEN . SUPPORTING MEN . LOVING MEN . DEPENDABLE MEN . INTELLIGENT MEN . MEN OF HONOR = REAL MEN !!!
This video is going viral on Twitter and I had to find you on UA-cam. That moment when he says, "I wish he was here." ...Can't get through it without crying. I just showed this video to my 9 and 6 year old sons. Such a powerful message. You're changing the lives countless sons and fathers far beyond your classroom. Thank you.
This is what life is all about. Thank you for changing hearts and minds at home and across the globe,
This made me cry and so happy to know that there are good men in this world.
NEVER FORGET THAT MOTHER AND FATHER ARE THE TRUE NAMES OF GOD ON THE HEARTS AND LIPS OF EVERY CHILD. Proud to call you my brother your strength is beyond words and your intention is PURE!!! Strong strong beautiful Americans!!!!✌️
Awesome! May the most High Yahuah Elohim keep blessing you all!
It's hard to watch this without crying. Beautiful.
Hoping this can grow into a full Academy someday.
Glory to God. How good are His ways! Love what you're doing. Blessing from Australia.
This is diamond!! Hell priceless!!!
LIL MAN WARRIOR SMILE AT THE END IS EVERYTHING,,,,ITS LIFE🎁🎁🎁
This is truly awesome. I made raising my daughter my priority as a single father and after 18 years I am proud of the child I raised into a young woman. I am also proud of myself for the time and effort I placed in her. I am a teacher and writer of Kung Fu and a builder of men and children. I am glad to see others teaching confidence and character to the most powerful inhabitants of or planet. I would love to visit.
I remember my dad took me to join a martial arts class taught by his friend, he looked out for me. I met his son there, I looked out for him. It's real like that, that's how it's goes
this is absolutely breathtaking....my heart is so full.
When these kids grow up, they are going to be unstoppable!
I cannot stop crying. I never had proper dad, but yes, I had many "spiritual dad" who were always with me.
The father is missing out. He's got a golden little kid.
Fatherless my entire life. Grown now as a very strong man that is always looking forward to improving. But once these videos remind me of how much i missed my father i get very emotional. Wish i had someone like you reminding me im not alone.
Just reading your words made me cry, and filled me with a spirit of healing. I so admire the work you are doing, and am heartened to see just a few glimpses of what you bring into the lives of these young students and their families. Thank you for all you give.
Thank you for sharing. Thank you! Shalom!
That's awesome. Thank you for being fathers.
This was absolutely beautiful to watch. Hats off to the sensei for giving the little man the courage and strength he will need in life to succeed. ❤️
Few things have moved me as much as this video. This video represents everything that is right about us as a People and a Community. The war against our Young Black Boys is real and playing out before our eyes. When we become overwhelmed and frustrated by all the negative we're inundated with everyday, and we throw up our hands and ask, "What can we do?", come back to this and know that something is being done and we WILL be alright. Been here too long to not be.
man, this is fucking therapy , i even forget i have a dad and that im missing something most of the time, i feel sorry for him but i wish i had something like this
You are doing great things for these boys. Really encouraging and so awesome to see
I love this the making of real men
You’re giving the example of how to live… how to teach… how to support the other… you’re a real man, a real teacher, a real Father.
What he said about GOD sending you different fathers thru out your life is true. Most of the time, without the people knowing, I would see the father figure that GOD was sending me in them. Many blessings to those men, and Women that fill the rolls of two parents to the girls and boys of the world. Thank you mom
52 years old with tears in my eyes .
Good people great role models .
Real men .
God bless
Salute from Malaysia. I am practicing Malaysian traditional martial arts named SILAT. Thank you for all your efforts in your community. May Most High Almighty God bless you all. I wish l can join you one day. Loves from Malaysia. 🌺🤲🇲🇾❤
I wish something was like this where I’m from. I pray that God my guild me in my journey as a single mom and allow my children to meet positive roll models. It’s truly hard raising kids let alone on your own especially when you yourself grew up without parents. This was so beautiful
Keep your faith and keep positive, you're doing wonderful work just by getting up everyday and raising your children.
I just discovered this MAN today. I have no idea how I stumbled unto his channel but I just discovered this GIANT of a man today. My Goodness! what a KING. As an African in America, I wish I lived close to Detroit (I am in Miami). I would drive to your academy right now and register my 13 year old son. In any case, I will learn from your instruction and guidance and follow your directives as I continue the work of raising a black boy in Amerikkka. God Bless you sir. I love you.
I would like to make a request of sensei Wilson. Please convey my gratitude to all the boys for their courage and kindness for allowing themselves to be filmed and then shown in this public forum. they have no clue the lives they are having ahealing impact on.
This was the kind of father I craved as a child, I’m a girl but this was what I wanted, to be pushed past my limits, mentored, poured into, and deeply supported🤍 God bless you and the life changing work your doing for these future men of the country, Jesus is coming back and the Lord knows we need the type of men your helping raise them to be in the battles to come, Blessed Be The Most High🤍
the boy eyes looking to his sensei push up screaming is amazing proud
That's beautiful dude......
This is SO beautiful. 😭😭😭😭 I have 4 sons. I pray I can help them find a village like that & be of support to others along the way. God be with you all. You have truly touched my heart. 💖🙏🏽🕊️
blessed to have been able to watch this. thank you for putting something positive into the world
Thank you!Thank you! Thank you! Through all things God is possible.keep doing what you do.
omg, I am in tears this is amazing! What we must do for ourselves! What we are capable of! Thank you Lord!
Sir , You're an inspiration to everyone. As a father of 3 boys your video motivates me to double the effort to be at their side in every stage of their lives and to let them know they can lean and count on me always. Thank you sincerely.
Thank you for taking time out your day to share encouragement. Shalom
Beautiful Brothers
This is the gentleman you want teaching your kids martial arts. Nobody stays with it for mere self defense, they work to better themselves as people. God bless you on your path, sir.
I'm sorry I found you through a tv show but THANK YOU for your empowerment, strength and wise words that the tv show was inspired to use it. Wish the UK had ur dojo so I could send my son.
That was just an incredible display of how real men act! Thank you sir!
Beautiful, thank you for what you do for the community.
I doubt Kaden will remember what happened in detail but he will never forget how he felt on that day.
A great example of being the change you want to see, and breaking those generational trauma loops.
When he said “I wish he was”. Sheesh a lot in that statement
Thank you for doing this amazing work. The world needs more people like you.
This man is awesome
This man is a molder of men. An alpha among alphas.
How I would have liked a teacher to guide me in the same way you guide your students.... your videos have helped me a lot in how to talk to my children and guided me in how to lead them through their fears.
This is so touching… I have three boys and I pray for them everyday that God will guide them. The part with his brother touched my heart
I'm just commenting cause I want to show support-- I appreciate all that you do- thank you sincerely, I swear I thought masculine sensitivity was a lost cause-much love and support
Powerful.
Fathers are important to sons. If your father is gone, then another man. Than you for this amazing video!
Need this for all people!
London needs you. peace
One day we will make that happen.
We need to protect this man at all costs. Hes too valuable to be dead.
This may be the greatest teacher ive ever seen
I would love to see the grown up men this academy built. Their testimony.
Now I want a SUN just to move to wherever The Cave of Adullam and enroll him.. 😭😫 Brother Jason Willson I love you to Life Peace and love
God Bless you all. I'm so touched by the beauty of what you're doing creating these lions and lambs.
I watch these and reflect on the young father I am. Am I doing the right thing, am I present, am I being a good role model. I need this man in my life to show me the right way. This needs to be a global movement, with this man at the lead showing young men, how to be a lamb & a lion, and just good men.
Im 40 damn years old and every single video got me tearing up.
Every boy and just about every man needs someone like this in there lives to keep them going and striving to be better
I’m literally crying! 😢😢
I remember the scene from ‘this is us’….even more soul stirring to see this level of brotherhood & fatherhood real life! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm not even black but I feel so inspired looking at your videos. You are a real leader training young boys to become future leaders
All a child needs is to be able to look upto someone. Once they have a blueprint of how it's supposed to be, they are set.
I wish we had this in Ireland.
I’ve never had men in my life that loved me like that. This is so important for children to have. Boys and girls need people to love them and lift them up when it gets bad. Thank you for this.
That picture at the end and that smile made me tear up man. great work you are an true inspiration
Culture of life; meaningful for ALL communities. Beautiful and thank you.
This is so beautiful 💯😭😭😭
Hero
As a Man, and martial artist, you have all my respect, may the universe fills your way with highness and blessings always!
I never had a father in my life. Seeing this made me Shead tears of joy and not pain. That someone else isn't going through what i had! I have a super great mentor now and really happy that i have him for guidance now... god bless man
That smile at the end with his mom! That right there is pride! ❤️❤️❤️
This is incredible.. The impact of this act is beyond black community struggles and fatherless
You are incredible. Nothing else can be said.
Amazing video. Congratulations.
I would have to type a book to speak to all the wonderful components of this video. Thank you for sharing, for being a blessing, and for being a true disciple. God's continued blessings and favor on you, and all who touch and are touched, by you.
This is beautiful.
These are real men my best regards from Crete Island Chania state Mediteranian sea
