Love this poem I'm still a virgin &proud ...saving myself for my husband!(: even though I'm only 17 it gets hard sometimes because the guys always break up with me ,but its all worth just make me know even more they only wanted my body &looks but the men that waits for me will not only want my body but my soul too!(:
i heard this a while back 3 years ago but i wasnt christian, i was just a believer of god but i was worshipping false gods....but i knew this m ade sense, and now i am christian and i see that god has been showing me signs all this time
welcome to the family. Very glad to know you found the way. you've got an army with you. few in numbers but stronger then any other army. You will struggle, like everyone. but remember Gods always there, and so is your family... in us. your family. we gotcha now, you won't fall
I am 27yrs old and I can say I'm still a child trying find his way. Unfortunately I have lost/ hurt many along the way, and I hope now that I realize my wrongs that I may be guided in the right direction. Not to be the perfect man but to be the man I was meant to truly be.
YES GOD!!!!!!! When you become a man.... Blown away completely the entire time i was screaming yes.. God you took me me to church, my youth have to see this.
I wish more little boys could grow up to be this kind of man =( This kind of unafraid strength and unwavering knowledge of purpose is like water to the thirsty woman =) All guys take heed! We need men, not boys- love this video, sir!
When a man can say he is a man for the first time - its so amazing! To stand tall like a man and smile like a man and love like a man. being a man of God is what men are made from.
I just never get enough of this video, each time that I watch it, I get goosebumps all over my body and tears in my eyes. I hope that one day, every single man will get to watch and be touched by this message. God is always doing great things.
Phil Allen,this was amazing in unbelief!i keep playing this over and over again!i am not a man but I do raise two boys on my own and with the grace of god they will soon be men!i have so much to say to you but to sum it up,Thank you for that!from me, my sisters and my brothers,thank you!
"For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also" James 2:26 .........Pastor Phil has the faith, and his works here are conveyed through the word ! Inspiring !
Beautiful. God bless the men who are not afraid to stand for Jesus despite what the world thinks...just as Christ lived....WE are to be a peculiar people. Praise the Lord!
This is a man of integrity. He takes responsibility for his wrongs even though he wasn't taught any better, and he admits he is not perfect, and that he needs God. Love him!
This is just too beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration. Will definitely be doing something like this soon. Time to really put the games away, and pick up the gospel.
I absolutely LOVE this! I love seeing a name who proclaims the without God, he wasn't perfect. And I love when he talks about the woman! This is how every man should feel. :)
It's beautiful to see a man who is courageous enough to stand transparent to the world --unafraid to tell of past pains, hurts, and failures while pointing out the only way to peace, wholeness, and life (the Son of God, Jesus Christ) May God continue to bless you and your ministry.
He's a pastor at my church and just gave a powerful sermon! He's a true disciple of Christ! He speaks with conviction and passion. You can't help but believe him. Praise God for this redeemed man of God.
No way? Phil Allen speaks at my church on a regular basis. I had no idea he did youtube stuff. This is great! Such a great pastor. He has made some of the best points in the bible that I have ever heard.
I'm an atheist but this poems beautiful =]. The way he rhymes the words and makes them sound as if he were singing. Describes his tribulations and triumphs. Great poem!
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20 Amen.
This really is the story of my life. This is my inspiration of my journey to becoming a man. My journey of breaking the chains of my sinful, childish ways, and transforming into the man of God that He created me to be.
June 18th: Happy Father's Day. Phil Allen Jr. Outstanding! "If a man happens to find himself, he has a mansion which he can inhabit with dignity all the days of his life."-James Michener. Thanks for the upload. Continued success and blessings.
Im sitting here weeping..i have to chose between two paths...one that leads to a man I care for across countrt..who's destructive to my love for Jesus..but oh...is he tempting..than I have an option to just be still...my same old life..to stay..this video made me realize I want a man...not a boy.a Godly man..thank you for this..
If there's one piece i never get tired of listening to...it's this one! "through my praise I'll self-publish a testimony"...blessed be the name of our Lord Jesus for giving Phil such a gift, the man who picked up the gospel and threw the toys away! WORD WORD WORD UP
Beautifully sewn, a seed into our hearts. I fail. I am unworthy but I never give up and God has never given up on me. This shines brightly on one of the biggest problems of today.We are distracted in all of the toys that we have taken from children.
I'm Muslim, but we are all brothers of mankind and God will bless us all. I cried during this video, I remember each one of your memories... thank you so much I feel refreshed
Thanks I am speechless You know what I love about being a man and believing in Jesus Christ that secretly all men want this. I get hit over and over again by this worlds temptations,Lust,Lies when they can't break your Spirit they tempt you with there friendships they just hate it when you don't fall. They hate it if you say No while they all wish in there hearts that they to would have the guts to stand up and be counted.
Thank you brotha who spoke these words. Thank you for picking up the gospel and opening ur mouth to speak the very utterances of the Spirit. Thank you in a time where many women are hurt and discouraged at the lack of men willing to pick up the gospel in the way they relate to them. Men willing to kill their pride and sacrifice their very life to love and honor and cherish their sister, their own sister! Thank you for the reminder that God has to move on the heart of a man so he can hear.
"Not power nor wisdom is given to those who seek the world and find pleasure in all that is on earth" you have just given me that thought now I know that becoming a man doesn't count the smarts of this world but to only pick up Gods gospel and spread it to the world and be proud of it too. You really are an inspiration brother. Thank you and God bless!!
I'm glad you found a better life in Christianity. I was starting to myself, until I read the bible and found out how much more mature I am to the god described in the bible by simply caring about my fellow people, regardless how they treat me. I personally don't believe there is a god, but I hold a belief that if I'm wrong, the god that exists is better than me, and thus, better than the god of the bible.
This video has put a lot into perspective for me. Normally I'd try to post something witty or attempt to crack a joke, but this... this deserves more respect than that. This man truly is a man. And he's shown me I've got a LONG way to go if I'm going to call myself a true follower of Christ. That's all I can say
No problem; it is my pleasure to answer questions, even ones that are difficult to think about. There are many who know much more than me (i just turned 20). I hope to present my faith by following the Bible's command to "test all things". It is wonderful to learn about what others think, because I can listen to others without compromising the core of my faith. Religion you can study from a scientific perspective, but spirituality you cannot. God can neither be proved to exist or not to exist.
Fear is the essence that keeps spirit down, it keeps personality dormant. Love keeps men righteous, it makes him see himself and his fellow man as friends, and not one to be feared. How can life be spent in fear when love is what perseveres?
"He was afraid to take his anger out on the world instead by simply enduring affliction yet under addiction he could go 12 rounds under the most violent screams..." That's powerful.
I watch this more than once everyday. it definently keeps me on the right path and is constantly reminding me what i really should be going for in life. Really this man is who i want/need to be. Love you man this is beautiful
Love this poem I'm still a virgin &proud ...saving myself for my husband!(: even though I'm only 17 it gets hard sometimes because the guys always break up with me ,but its all worth just make me know even more they only wanted my body &looks but the men that waits for me will not only want my body but my soul too!(:
I cried literally when i saw this because this is the type of man im attempting to become.
I still bless the day my cousin introduced me to this piece. Changed my life in ways i cannot explain.
I love it. ... if more men step up and realize who they are and the power they have, then we wouldn't loose our young men to the streets.
i heard this a while back 3 years ago but i wasnt christian, i was just a believer of god but i was worshipping false gods....but i knew this m ade sense, and now i am christian and i see that god has been showing me signs all this time
+Tony Cruise Amen!

I have been changed. This struck me so deep, I am a better person after this. And I will strive to be a better man.
WHEN I BECAME A MADE. GOD GAVE ME THE STRENGTH TO LIVE WITH OUT THE PAIN.....NO DOUBT ONE OF THE BEST POEMS THAT I HAVE EVER READ!!!!
I always find myself returning to this video, this piece. What it means to be a man. Sending you love. And thank you.
YES GOD!!!!!!! When you become a man.... Blown away completely the entire time i was screaming yes.. God you took me me to church, my youth have to see this.
Hahaa ........he's rebuilding the Church - God's Word Architect !!!!
" I want Him to be my Father, and my Father In Law, since that's His daughter"....... Beautiful 😪
This is pure fire! God just used this mans spoken word to speak to me and to inspire me. Glory be to God !
"I've discovered, that there are medicinal qualities down the corridor of introspection." Best line of this spoken word piece.
I wish more little boys could grow up to be this kind of man =( This kind of unafraid strength and unwavering knowledge of purpose is like water to the thirsty woman =) All guys take heed! We need men, not boys- love this video, sir!
“I learned to respect her like Jesus’s mother”... that line alone taught me everything I need to know about how to treat a woman
when i became a man i learned how to love God back...... Love it!
This is wonderful. I am a perfect example of someone whose life was transformed 'when I became a man'.
When a man can say he is a man for the first time - its so amazing! To stand tall like a man and smile like a man and love like a man. being a man of God is what men are made from.
IF I KNOW WHAT TO SAY ABOUT THIS, THEN IT WILL BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT.........BEST PIECE EVER
I just never get enough of this video, each time that I watch it, I get goosebumps all over my body and tears in my eyes. I hope that one day, every single man will get to watch and be touched by this message. God is always doing great things.

"But I learned to love her like I oughtta, because I want him to be my father, and my father in law, since thats his daughter!" Truly touching!
I'm crying to this. The feelings the way he spoke his words so real and so genuine.
Beautiful. God bless the men who are not afraid to stand for Jesus despite what the world thinks...just as Christ lived....WE are to be a peculiar people. Praise the Lord!
Hallelujah!!! Great Man of God!
This is a man of integrity. He takes responsibility for his wrongs even though he wasn't taught any better, and he admits he is not perfect, and that he needs God. Love him!
Gives me chills every single time. God Bless You All.
"Nor did Pixar have a film to show me what God's man really looked like."
this is so inspiring and amazing. I love spoken word poems
This is just too beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration. Will definitely be doing something like this soon. Time to really put the games away, and pick up the gospel.
I absolutely LOVE this! I love seeing a name who proclaims the without God, he wasn't perfect. And I love when he talks about the woman! This is how every man should feel. :)
Pick up the gospel.
Pick up the GOSPEL
and put the toys away.
I am not religious, nor am I a man, but that was the most beautiful truth I've ever heard.
This is real good and can inspire people to become an real man and not a fake one
It's beautiful to see a man who is courageous enough to stand transparent to the world --unafraid to tell of past pains, hurts, and failures while pointing out the only way to peace, wholeness, and life (the Son of God, Jesus Christ)
May God continue to bless you and your ministry.
This just helped me think more about my situation.
This speech makes me think of all the things I can do in life. How I can live above the standards as a fifteen year old.
happy to see God grace in you might men, God bless you
This man is a prime example of a true man. Not a man of the world, but a man of God.
This is a very emotionally inspiring thought provoking piece.
He's a pastor at my church and just gave a powerful sermon! He's a true disciple of Christ! He speaks with conviction and passion. You can't help but believe him. Praise God for this redeemed man of God.
