C. S. Lewis said "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else". Seems to apply here. GOD bless you Mr. Klavan.
NORMAL PEOPLE TYPE BIBLE CRITICISM ONINE AND DISCOVER THE BIBLE IS FICTION AND THE HEBREW MYTHS ARE MYTHS, STUPID. HOW EDUCATED ARE YOU, DON?
Great comment. Really sums up this wonderful story.
The sun doesn't rise. The earth turns its face to the sun.
@@carlzeichner8168yeah yeah and we perceive color because of the light receptors within our eyes bla bla bla
@carlzeichner8168 - The Earth is a planet not a human, it doesn't have a "Face".
I am in tears. I have been so depressed, but the words “sometimes you have to play in pain” will stick with me at least for today. Thank you Andrew
*Maddie, whatever dark thought, perhaps from a demonic source, is pulling you down or making you fear the most -- find a scriptural passage that contradicts / defeats it. Then, EVERY time the dark lie comes up in your mind, state your faith. The darkness will begin to fade and ultimately will disappear from your life. The affirmation doesn't HAVE to be scripturally-based, but it is powerful to wield the Lord's word as a sword.*
*For example, Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."*
*God bless you!*
This man helped me to find my way back to God. His words on Religion explain the idea with clarity and helped make sense of my faith puzzle.
Me too
Me too 🙏🏻❤️
Me too
His autobiography is very good and so moving!
So glad for you - welcome back to the family of God. Klavan is a wise person to share his testimony. You can do the same for someone too.
Thank you, Andrew, for your testimony. I was once suicidal until Jesus gave me the gifts of a patient husband, awesome children, and wonderful Christian friends who loved me back to life. He will never leave you nor forsake you.❤
Klavan is a treasure. His Memoir, The Great Good Thing, where he shares his journey toward Christ in beautiful detail, is a must read!!
Noted. Thank you for that recommendation.
Thank u so much
It is! ❤
Thank you for the recommendation
Great witness, heartfelt & genuine. Praise the mighty name of Jesus!!!
I Iove Andrew Klavan. He is so wise but hasn't lost his playfulness.
Outside the Holy Spirit and my Nana, klavan has had the biggest impact on me becoming a Christian.
I wanted this monologue to last for hours! Thank you Andrew, for sharing your life and your message and Jesus Christ🙏
This is great. I am “playing in pain” right now. I am thankful for this message.
Please know you are not alone in your struggle!
Praying Martha
Keep going Jesus is always waiting for you at the end of the road because once you get there you'll be at peace. Thank God for every little things in Life.
Klavan is an absolute treasure. One of the greatest thinkers of modern times.
One of my favorite people. Thank you so much. God bless the Jewish people.
This video just saved my life! Praise Yeshua! Praise Jesus! Praise Isus! God bless you Andrew Klavan!
This struck me so close to home. You're story is mine, almost exactly, except i was raised in a Romanian Messianic Jewish home with little ties to tradition. Instead I was raised to look at everything intellectually; to focus on truth above everything else, and to criticize those who got something wrong. It lead me to criticise and disregard every pastor/rabbi I ever met who would preach something technically incorrect. I've become very jaded.
I too want to be a writer. I've written much throughout my life, mostly poetry and short stories. But I also have bigger projects, like a biography about my father escaping communist Romania, and a novel the likes of JRR Tolkien's mythology and history, but from eastern influences. None of these have panned out though. I've published many works already, and have made next to nothing.
Things were made worse when I met a girl through my writing. I fell in love, but was made a fool. The love was one sided, a lie, and despite what I felt, never real. She took advantage of my writing, which I gave freely, and since leaving me, i haven't written anything since.
At the same time I've been diagnosed with multiple life long diseases that are progressively getting worse, attacking my functioning, my body, my blood, and even my psyche. I can't help but wonder if these are the reasons I can't find love.
Things have been spiraling the past few months. With very little in the way of an immune system I've been getting sick constantly, and it's kept me from interacting with people. I am an extrovert, and I hate being alone, but that's all I do. I've been getting more and more depressed. I've been having suicidal thoughts. I've been contemplating the best way to do it. The only thing keeping me from committing is my little brother, who I see as a son, and who looks up to me with all his heart. Despite this, I've become more withdrawn, and it has affected him negatively, making me hate myself even more.
Today is the first day of Chanukkah. For some reason I woke up with Adam Sandler's "Hanukkah Song" in my head, so I went to watch it again. I laughed. It felt good. So I watched some more about Chanukkah. I found a video that this chanel just uploaded a day ago. It was beautiful, describing Yeshua in the light of Chanukkah. I looked through their videos and saw Andrew Klavan. I like him, so I thought I'd give a watch for just a couple minutes.
I became planted, and watched the whole thing. "Play in pain" hit me like a ton of bricks. The way God spoke to you without using His Name, El Shaddai, so humble, so subtle, so intimately... I couldn't help but cry. It's as if those same words were for me. I broke down sobbing, and came to write this after I dried my eyes. "Thank you, God!" Amen! Thank you, God!
My life hurts. I'm in constant pain. Nothing feels fair. I was arguing with God every day and night. My writing has stopped. My desire is gone. But sometimes you have to play in pain. If he can do it, then I can too. I'm turning around. I'm putting my faith back in Jesus. I'm going to go back to church despite any pain. I'm going to SHOW my faith in Him, and not just keep it bottled inside. Thank you, God! Bless Andrew Klavan and Chosen People Ministries!
I will pray for you-your comment is 3 months old. Hope things are better for you now
May God Bless you in Jesus/Yeshua’s name for all eternity and bring you to eternal paradise my brother. May your words be a light to others as well. In Jesus’s name, amen!
You've just made a grown man cry. God bless you my friend.
You are not alone brother, never will Jesus let you down
@RomanianReptile - yes this life seems so long, and it feels as if this is all we're ever going to know forever, pain and loss, and of course fear - yet the days that we're locked here are really so few and rapidly fleeting and I have begun to see them as brief opportunities to learn to be Yeshuas bride and to learn to look forward to my eternity with him knowing it will be so soon.
- I got to my '60s it seems in just a few minutes from being a young healthy strapping 25-year-old riding 150 miles on a bicycle in one weekend, now I have a hard time with a flight of stairs but as it has been said, "this too shall pass" and it won't be long - it really won't and I have had to repent of that heart and mind that is so locked into this here and now mortal coil and realize that it's a lie and that I'm not going to be here very much longer at all, in fact the rapture could occur any day any week any month, but aside from that - if I live another 20 years it'll be but a few fleeting moments and so I look beyond it and hold fast to the eternity which I know is awaiting,
...and it helps
I've heard AK's testimony probably in 15 different venues (he' s a great guy with a great mind and I've followed his career closely ever since I met him at a writers' conference in 2007), and this by far is the best. Kudos to the videographer/editor. Bang up job. The older I get, the more I realize that Jews are the most gifted people in the world. What a wonderful thing to be chosen twice.
I couldn’t agree with you more regarding the Jews! They’ve gifted us so much through the centuries.
I've been watching Klavan weekly for years now and never knew his conversion story. So beautiful!
crap i’m tearing up in public. God bless you, sir.
Absolutely incredible. What really strikes me is what always struck me about my dad's testimony, that single moment of, "suddenly, something was different."
His story reminds me of the Book of Esther. God is all around and in and through it, working for good, but his name is never mentioned... 🙏
I lost my faith along time ago, can't seem to get it back. Klavan
is an inspiration for that possibility for me.
He is my favorite at Daily Wire
May God protect you brother Andrew gives you wisdom in the knowledge of Christ🙏🙏
I love this testimony and I have listened to it twice in the past few months. I’ve been feeling so depressed in a spiritual battle I’ve been facing as a Christian, but I feel a renewed sense of hope coming back into my life and spirit. Thank you, Andrew.
Wow. In tears. God is so good and I'm so glad you're here friend ♥️
Mine too. He got me out of Chicago, NYC, Hollywood and through Desert Strom! I can't say exactly what for except that l came to realize his love for me has no bounds and I've been humbled. I pray everyone has a similar experience.
What an awesome God we have!
The Covid lock downs gave me the opportunity to surf UA-cam more thoroughly. I came across Andrew Klavan and so many others including One for Israel. For that I am grateful. Chosen People ministries is new to me. I’ll subscribe.
We're grateful our content has blessed you! Thank you so much for your support. :)
You always make our lives just a little better.
Thank you, God for this man’s testimony.
It is difficult to find our true selves, and afterward, it is difficult to remain true to ourselves. Andrew Klavan strikes me as a man who was honest in looking for his true self and manages to remain honest.
Thank you for this. I stopped crocheting to write down "sometimes you gotta play in pain" because through your story those words sparked something in me also.
So very powerful… thank you for sharing your personal story …
Praise Jesus Christ!
Well, Klavan, you've done it...officially you've made me laugh and cry! God's got our backs-Bless you for sharing (i don't think I've ever needed to hear something so badly)! Thank you Carter, Mr. Mets 🙏
Sometimes you have to play in pain. I think alot of us feel that way. But remember “the joy of the Lord is your strength”
Beautiful testimony. God bless the Jewish people, for salvation is of the Jews. Our Messiah is Jewish❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️Mr. Klavan, Love you! you are a man and a brother in Christ
Thank you for your testimony, Andrew. Jesus saved me too. God bless
Really needed this right now. Thank you.
May the Lord less you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.
I'm such a fan of Andrew.
And now, I'm an even bigger fan of Jews. I've never had a single issue with a people who share the same values of faith, family and honor.
The fact that this channel would give Andrew a platform to talk about switching religions is a testament to the good intentions of the Jewish community writ large!
People that are wrong hide things like this. They censor things like this. And they shame things like this.
Y'all are celebrating this man and his decision, and that shines a magnificent light on you!
Andrew is a treasure and I'm so thankful for any opportunity he gets to show his humanity.
Thank you all for sharing him!!
May the most blessed tidings be upon all the Jewish people!
Andrew, I don't know how you held it together. Thank you for being you. Thank you for sharing.
God bless you Andrew Klavan. I've listened to you now for many years and was privileged to meet you once at a speaking event. You're speaking truth to an audience and a world that need it desperately. Bless you. Thank you. Save the Klavan.
Thank you Andrew, your testimony has given me affirmation for my journey, shalom
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I often tell people that I just don’t have the ego integrity to be an atheist. I think most of them think that I have never wrestled with my faith. What I really mean is that I have wrestled with the despair of my own insignificance so deeply. For so long. That it’s a miracle I’m still alive and I’m so grateful God delivered me from my pain. I was a functioning madman for decades. Literally staying alive out of nothing more than a sense of responsibility to keep those I loved from any pain they might feel by my passing. Even though I believed they would be better off without me. It wasn’t until I fully accepted the reality of God that my chains were laid down. God has blessed you Andrew. I pray that he bless you more. Thank you.
It is amazing and so wonderful when God acts in that way.
I know now why I can’t feel that connection to life like I so desperately crave. I’m not connecting with God. Thanks Andrew very well said and it touched my heart more than you’ll know
This had me engaged from the beginning, what a story, what a journey. God truly is amazing the way he reaches out to us but also let’s us learn and explore on our own
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Dear Andrew, thank you always for your sound truth, faith and words. You help people more then you will ever know.
I love you Andrew klavan! Thank you for this powerful message. You are so inspiring!
so good. thank you, Klavan. just watched a second time because this is that moving
God bless his souls and his family, Amen
Amazing and inspiring story. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the good words. The Lord giveth songs in the night...Jesus shows us the Father. It all makes sense if you let it.
Thank you for sharing your story.
Such an amazing testimony . Thank you, I needed to hear this. Shalom Mr Klavan
Beautiful
Amen brother!What a wonderful testimony!Our God is great!
Andrew thank you for sharing your situation. We have been learning about all the lies garbage and bullshit that we were taught in our life. I feel blessed because of all the things learned in the past couple years. I appreciate your videos because I always speak with a genuine honest heart. The truth does truly set us free.
I can only imagine the conversations between Andrew Klavan and Ben Shapiro at the Daily Wire. Pray for Ben!
Wonderful testimony brother Andrew
Thank you Lord. This is truly amazing and impactful. Thank you Andrew. God has certainly spoken through you here.
Mr. Klaven's comments on the humility and Grace of God is a powerful reminder of the kindness and patience of God. It seems it's always moving to see and hear someone who is moved by that which was so important to us. To me. "Until I was baptized, I don't think I was a Jew." What a statement. Of course, he doesn't speak of the act, he speaks of the decision - the surrender - that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob has called him to embrace the faith of the Patriarchs in its fulness in Messiah Yeshua. Amazing.
I am glad you made it through Mr. Klavan. I enjoy your commentary.
Wonderful Testimony! ... yes sir you got it OR should I say you GOT HIM & He GOT YOU! ... Praise the Lord.
Because he speaks of Jesus, Andrew is my favorite of the daily wire cast❤
Can relate to it..Hits hard..Greetings from Germany..
Bless you, sir. I was in tears with you at the end of your Christmas special. I didn't know this is where you came from. I loved you before, but I love you more now. See you in the clouds soon.
Wow!………..what an incredible Almighty God we serve! Thanks.
GLORY BE TO GOD
It's so cool that his Jewish identity became most real in his baptism into the Jewish Messiah! This video got my tears flowing, too!
You helped change me so God has gotten us both. My God bless you and yours.
Beautiful 🙏🏻
Impressive!

Incredible, shalom
