      The internet is rife with information. But as somebody who has left a cult I get very worried when I hear: go to church. There are plenty of bad places you can end up in. And they all say they are the true way to God and Christ.
      Does the Bible say “go to
      Church”? Does Jesus say: Go to Church? What does Church even mean in the truest biblical sense? “Being the church” seems to be a biblical thing though. Surely it does not mean what it does in English today.

      Find a church that teaches directly from the Bible… not that have extra things written (not the Bible) that they read from or teach. Calvary Chapel churches read thru the entire Bible. I love that. But I also don’t belong to a Calvary Chapel church, so that’s not why I am suggesting one. I just believe most CC churches are very solidly teaching the Bible directly from it. Most churches nowadays only throw in a verse of two & do not go very deep. Most churches nowadays, unfortunately, are full of fluff. They don’t want to tackle any real issues that make people uncomfortable. But that’s what the Bible is- the Truth of God. Sometimes that Truth can be uncomfortable... my two cents!! Hope you find a great church.

      @@theohuioiesin6519 going to church in my estimation is a statement about come and be humbled. It’s a call to action to face yourself and your shortcoming in the house of the Lord. The statement come to church ideally calls the believer to belief and is meant to recenter them. Churches are places where you are held to account by your own guilt if you have such a thing. It’s not something that Jesus said because you cannot go to a church that does not exist. That is why Jesus gave the task of being the stone upon which God would build the church to him. You cannot seek biblically for something that existed only because of the Bible. I understand your appreciation about church but the way I view it is the church is meant to act as a constant that you must compare to you go to a church in whose ideas you believe and you continue to attend to secure your beliefs and ensure that you are not falling victim to the constant pull of your own hedonistic temptation.

      Change can be slow. And more importantly perhaps no change but the skill to just cope and being stronger and changing in that way.
      Start reading the Bible. Even as an atheist you will benefit from it even if you’ll never come to believe in God.
      Stay strong and don’t give up!

Glad to hear you are moving the right direction brother. God bless and Godspeed. One pointer, life with Christ isn't always sunshine and roses so build your faith and surround yourself with others who believe.

      You should really read the Holy Quran. It's God's word after Christianity turned their back on any further gospels, it helps you with so much more. Islam is the evolution of the failures of Christianity into a better religion and a better path to knowing God's word.

    • @faithreasons3041

      The Quran is not holy. There is too much internal and external evidence that show it is a man made book. It is full of Chinese whispers retelling of apocryphal accounts, myths and legends. Full of contradictions and non Arabic words that were difficult to translate. As Ayesha hinted it is a book compiled to justify the desires of Mohammed.

      Sark am has lied to you Jesus said from the cross it is finished . They pretend to revere Jesus , not Jesus of scripture though 4 lies and an untruth in one statement . Jesus said I am the way the truth the life no one comes to the father except thru me . Mohammad was a 6th century warlord who was born a sinner and not the son of god . Islam is Satans religion and easily falsified just without effort . There is only one sacrifice between god and man and that being the man Christ Jesus . Unlike Islam you can feel it is gods living word . The Koran feels like men writing pretending to know god because they have prayer memorized or bow 6 times a day , memorized prayers actually God calls vain babblings . Jesus did teach us what they call the Lord’s Prayer , but it was not meant to be the same . I’m 62 now Denis . Islam is not your freind and is completely devoid of your saviour the only name under heaven by which he must be saved Amen forever YHWH AND HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON

      First, OP was quoting JP in this video with the first part. Second, that was in reference to the fact that many young men have lost their way due to the state of society today which tries to emasculate them and punish them for daring to be strong, healthy examples of their biological nature. I'm not religious whatsoever, but JP was encouraging churches to embrace and foster their original philosophies on the nature of men, in order to give them the confidence, maturity and strong sense-of-self VITAL for positive societal change. And that's something I think anyone with a healthy concept of functioning society and the role of biology would agree to - religious or not.
      What is happening right now with cancel culture and the woke movement is directly contributing to societal collapse. Things need to change, and churches could actually do good, if they weren't pandering to the woke crowd so dang hard.

    Since becoming a Father i've returned to the Catholic Church after many years away, for some of the reasons you've explained. It's so sad to see how few young people are in the pews compared to my memories of the church as a child, especially at a time where the Church offers what so many young people are missing in their lives. It's so sad to see so many people my age so hopeless, burried in depression and loneliness, unwilling to start families. The Church offers something to fill that void but they need to make an effort to do it. The Church also needs to stay on target by Preaching the Gospel and avoiding the pitfalls of watering down the message to be more agreeable to modernity.

They somehow think that the message that will bring the Young people seeking Christ back into the church is the same message they get bombarded with 24/7 through media and public schools, when in reality, those of us who want Christ in our lives want CHRIST and we WANT the Gospel and it's teachings.

I apologized to him and we prayed together for God to grant him miraculous healing and peace as he walked through recovery. Thank you for this reminder, Dr. Peterson.

      @@fostermasonry I'm a Christian, but not visiting church services in manmade church institutes. Through my 71 years of life experiences, as a Dutch woman, I have a different view of what Jesus has done for us. He didn't die for us, he died and was raised after 3 days, showing himself to those who were able to see his spiritual body.
      We all have such a body, although the Bible chapter mentioning re-incarnation is removed from the Bible, in a deliberate attempt to point humanity's eyes on a once-in-a-lifetime obligation to live in fear for God, due to sinful tendencies and similar actions. So that it was ordained, often the subject of Sunday service, if the gate of Heaven or Hell was opened to them. Finito existence, better be aware.... or else. In short: weaponizing of guilt. A minister's daughter, my age, wrote a book "Without sin, but guilty" about her own life experiences, in the 60s. How she felt that from the baby phase she, and other children in church, were "made guilty" without being able to find a clue about what that meant. Consciousness and the experience of living with a conscience belong to a later age, if ever that is experienced, for it's not exactly taught in school, is it? The writer of this book grew up in fear of doing something wrong and receiving punishment.
      I'm a daughter of a minister father who preached according to Calvinistic doctrine in The Netherlands. A strong judgmental manmade church institute, forcing church members to confess their unforgivable sins in church, after which they were officially expelled, forever ignored by those who listened to the verdict in church, with a sigh of relief that they were on the right but narrow path.
      What Jesus established with that extraordinary fact, his resurrection, as I perceive it, is showing humanity an example of who and what we can accomplish ourselves, by following his example. The way he lived, what he did for others, out of unconditional love. He didn't save us from our responsibility to be the creators of brotherly love, respect, and an unconditional open attitude to other human beings, no matter their status.
      The deeds Jesus was able to demonstrate in the practice of his life, were imbued with Christ-Consciousness. It's in waiting for all of us to be embodied and shown in the practice of our lives. That's his gift, see?

      I think that Orthodox Church already does these things, at least in Greece. And it is the only church which still gives birth to Saints, like saint Paisios, Porfirios, Sofronios etc. And the best of all is Mount Athos with all the authentic christians not only in words but in their soul.

I have to say that this to me, although it speaks some truth as a Christian, falls hollow as he does not himself believe and confess Christ. The church is not interested in making boys into men. The church, each individual who makes up the body, is commanded to take Christ to the world so that they may be saved and sanctified. This will transform man into what God had always intended for us. To be more like Him. Peterson is treating the Church as nothing more than a YMCA. How can he ask others to do what he himself will not, to accept Christ.

I've never lost the notation that God exists- but I stopped attending mass due to a myriad of reasons, some very real and objectively justifiable, and others due to my own rationalizations- and what I heard was that its about putting my house in order and if I am who I say I am, the church should be part of that house- and its up to all of us to help put that house back in order. Jesus went to help the lepers, and right now, the lepers are in a very real sense, young men.

Jordan would likely never have been who he is right now without the support of his wife, Tammy and his daughter Mikhaila. Who knows? He might have been gone forever.
      Women who believe in men make up the pillar of which the Great ones stand on. The foundation of which the rest of us draw our strength. Without it we crumble. Without it we see the aggression of wild men tear through and cause so much suffering. We see the grim actions of a few that cause pain to so many.

      Someone told them they didn't have to be there. Simple as that. Even before that there was the time when the women dragged the family to the church. Mr Peterson has a point. Market the church towards the men. It is a logical and humane path because I don't think there is a time in history when young men have no real place. I was thinking the other day that I am glad I am not a young man in today's society. With all of the social flux, I wouldn't be very happy with anything. Therefore the marketing point for the church - to go back to the fundamentals as it used to be.

    I am grateful for this video. It finally pushed me over the edge towards attending mass at the catholic curch. After almost 20 years I have been to confession again and I have attended mass for the first time in 10 years. Even though my parents are not thrilled about my reversion to the faith, they tolerate it and this is enough. This was a completely surprising development, which seemed completely outside the realm of possibility even a year ago, when I followed the empty road of the new age to nihilism. I went through hell during and after the flood in my home town in 2021. The lectures of Dr. Peterson really helped me a lot during this difficult time. In the unlikely case that you read my comment I want to thank you Dr. Peterson. May the Lord reward you for your help and for your role in my reversion/conversion to the faith.

    I'm a Grandma here with my two cents. I've been praying for some time to see young men show up again at the church. That they not only hear the Gospel but receive it in full. To understand the wisdom, respect and truth about themselves and how much value and valor in integrity that has already been placed inside of them that shouldn't be crushed by the worlds demands for Christian passivity. As you grasp the truth of your design it brings an immovable confidence and courage that doesn't have to have someone else push you along. I've seen it in some of the older men who understand what they have cannot be manipulated or confused (by culture or questionable gals. -Side note, Christian woman have to be wise also not to get involved with questionable men. Had to give equal time on this one.) but a peaceful steadfastness. Knowing friendship, family, when to be patient, compassionate or bold and standing for the truth. Please understand, the true core of the church knows your worth. The Bible is full of strong, young men (even when they mess up but repent and get back on track) who have been strengthened, educated, trained in areas of being warriors, guards, leaders and kings guided, protected and admired because they put their full trust in God. Sorry about dragging out my dusty old soapbox but I just want young men (and young women) to know you are being covered in prayer whether you realize it or not. I hope to see all of you showing up at a church, learning, asking (tough) questions and searching the Bible to know every promise and gift to you from God to lead well and rightly in these days.

      how about churches start shaming women, instead of pushing histrionic single mothers and post wall harlots on good men who naively trust in their religious institution to not push harmful people onto them? Wonder why all the men left, so peculiar. The very first story of genesis tells us that women are agents of chaos and it is required for men to be in authority, because when you listen to women you sin and are kicked out of the garden, but if you believed that you wouldn't push for female voters and female employers and and a wholly gynocentric society and what a shock the gynocentric society is deeply troubled almost as if what genesis had to say about how men and women should relate to each other was right. Peterson is naive, society will always collapse when you give women equality, not meant to be. The church is a fucking joke. Regardless of whether G-d exists, it's an absolute fucking joke pretend that any of these religious institutions genuinely reflect what is taught in the bible, new or old. It is always about how men need to step up but never are women shamed or called our for having conducted themselves in an absolute disgusting manner. Doesn't the bible even say a woman who is not a virgin cannot be a wife. Yeah, doubt you believe in that, just convenient feel good nonsense, that's the only part of religion women like, but when it comes to accountability and responsibility they are always absent.

I do not disagree with the elevation of women to more openly accept a women's capability. I will never agree however, with anyone not having to have responsibility for their actions, and I believe that is what you are speaking of.
      Female pastors and Christians should be properly, equally admonished for everything from scriptural errancy to improper speaking and aberrant behavior.... which you might rightfully have issue with. Unfortunately, I can only surmise that this experiment (which took over in the church and the military as well as in all arenas of western society) was mandatory for society to learn what it has learned and for the spiritual progression towards what we know. We all have learned something. I can only hope that you learn the best lessons from this and do not lose hope. People getting away with negative behavior is not new. It is just a different and larger group this time. Do not let someone else's bad behaviors cost you you destiny. That is all you can do. Take care, and be Blessed.

      Go listen to That Prophet by searching "Responding to Jordan Peterson’s Message to the Churches" on UA-cam, and you'll find Jesus Christ, the One Peterson did not mention in Peterson's video. Indeed, Mr. Peterson, That Prophet hopes you listen to him, and he's open to speaking with you.

    I've been attending church and reading the bible regularly for the last year, a much more traditional one than I imagined I would ever feel welcomed in, and can hardly believe the spiritual growth and clarity I've found in my life as a result. It has opened up tough conversations with several family members and friends about their spiritual lives and firmly held beliefs that I would have never approached previously. A little more of this in the US I imagine could go a long way for young people who don't have the language to express what they're going through.

      @@andrew_koala2974 that's why JBP emphasizes reading with a Jungian archetypal/psychological perspective. I don't think you're meant to ever 'know' or 'understand' the Bible, I think it's a tool for digging deeper into the spirit of existence via repeated exposure.

      @@andrew_koala2974, Read the Bible! The different versions do not change the message my friend. Over time the English language has changed dramatically. Old English sounds and reads differently than modern English. Some readers might be confused while reading certain passages, and certain words have changed in meaning.
      For example: In the KJV you will find that in 1 Corinthians 13 instead of using the word “love” it uses “charity.” Charity today means something completely different then what it meant back in the 17th century. Today we use the word “love,” and when we speak of charity, we are referring to the act of being generous or to an organization.
      Another example is in 2 Timothy 2:15. The modern NIV says, “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved” in the modern versions of The Bible. In the KJV, it says, “Study to show thyself approved.” Back then study didn’t mean to learn new things but simply to do your best.

      The body of Christ is not the Church, but the believers. The Church building doesn't define our faith, but our diligence in scripture and the word of truth, I have not come across anything which shows a right vibrant Biblical approach towards the human sin, but mere sophistry.

      We the Church must avoid being institutionalized...and irrelevant...We the Church (the body of Christ) need to be a lot more like Jordan...AND A LOT MORE LIKE JESUS.
      We need to be in the real world challenging bad thinking...showing Gods love...and modelling his solutions. Much of the religious framing of the church is no longer fit for purpose
      I wish you well on your journey...May God lead you into truth and freedom...May you avoid the traps of religion and control.

This reminded me of a verse that reads: James 5:20 "Remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins." This was a wake up call that the Church needs and I as part of that needed as well. I was the first changed by this and I will continue to spread the Good News for those in need.

    Orthodox here…we have ‘so many’ young men walking into our Parish it’s unbelievable! Really!
    Every week at least 5 new people walk in and some have never been in any Church before.
    The primary draw is Spirituality. If our Parish didn’t place this first, they wouldn’t come.
    This week alone, there will be 5 baptisms and 25 new catechumens. ( Loveland Colorado has a population shy of 80,000 people.) Our outreach is simple… Our lives should show what we believe without saying anything, and parishioners get outside of the Church building to help those in need in our community.
    (Inside the Church everyone helps each other in some way too…by tithing our time and talent).
    I’m an inside ‘greeter’ (back of the Church) that helps visitors feel comfortable, explaining the service if they look lost I invite them to coffee hour, introduce them to others.
    We could use more young women at my Parish!

    Outstanding! This man is among the greatest heroes of my lifetime. The courage he embodies brings me hope when I had given up on ever being able to respect any of the cowardly alleged "Intellectuals" we have shoved in our faces by the corrupt media and government. God bless Jordan Peterson. May he walk with the lord in peace, health, and ever greater discernment. An example to us all, letting his light shine, and speaking the truth, in love and encouragement.

      the way the Jordan stares, grimaces, and squints at the camera is way too much, and borderline creepy, he needs to stop being overdramatic and just deliver facts

    Yes!!! Thank you for standing up for young men I’m thirty three now and very happy to have found your lectures and materials in 2017 I went from being homeless to owning my own business but most of all I have grown in the most wholistic way of understanding that I could ever dream of. My family and I thank you.

      Thank you so much guys. I appreciate the support just know there are sooo many more young men like myself in need of guidance. It’s time we give it to them instead of letting them think there are no options other than thinking we’re a cancer to those around us. Con amor
