    The show today was very encouraging. I had to re-listen to make sure I heard correctly the four (out of five) words, rape, abortion, neglect and divorce. For Dr Weiss to want to understand how and why women who have suffered these tragedies remain strong, is an affirmation to me.
    No one ever helped me through these times. Causing me at 16 to classify them as a part of life. I see the effects and the damage they have caused over the past 45 years.
    But I have always had Jesus to pick me up, who cheered me up and keeps me going. I am thankful Jesus is always faithful and present.
    I can imagine where and what I would be without the PRECIOUS gift of faith!
    Thank you, Dr. Weiss, for your story and helping so many. Thank you, Joni, for having him on and keeping Day Star going!

      Because I have done witchcraft/satanism, seen the abyss, abandoned my family to do these things.. I have been trying so hard, yet these demons that I have welcomed over the years keep wanting to show their face, whether that be in nightmares, shadows, or even in forms of intrusive thoughts.. I have given myself back to My Heavenly Father, but fears keep shouting at me and damming me.

    God does not mind doubt, in the midst of getting to know him. I was given the grace to be in the presence of Jesus Christ and if compassion was a human being that I have seen him. Jesus Christ is so compassionate, He Loves us so much. Also when Jesus Christ gave me the grace to be next to him, I found myself automatically on my knees repenting of my sins. And no, there is no verbal talk, for lack of words I say telepathy. I came from the dream with one thing in mind, JUST BELIEVE!

I still believe deception took place between Joni and Doug... hope repentance takes place in their wrong doing.... Please see that I'm not judging them ....I'm saying this out of love. Just discernment ....There's a lack of compassion there. Mainly all christianese talk. But I do hope that any one who does not know Jesus personally, will still give their lives to Him.

Lord know our statement if is honest and humble. I do not agree with people in this program about eternal soul. If soul is eternal why Jeremiah said : soul who sin, die? Also if we have eternal life in heven or hell why Word of God said : Is only one life eternal in Jesus Christ? Is not gift if we have anyway. If is so why Lord say to man, nane later Adam. If you do that, you die. So Serpent was right because say : you not die?. Just not belive because most people belive.

      Actions speak greater than words..... definitely would not go to Doug for any type of counseling.
      He saw money, power and Daystar platform. Joni gave in to charm and lust.

    We have to understand in the Scriptures to tell us that time and unforeseen circumstances befall us all that means that the negative horrific the Holocaust even has happened to some all these things are possible what do we do when we find ourselves having experienced an extremely negative situation if we believe we turn to God of course knowing that we live in an imperfect system there by endurance is necessary endurance by the Lord for those who have this godly attachment and heelsI’ll see you through of course but what about those who don’t believe summer drawn into the most negative is this gentleman doctor man of faith is talking about their lead into a very negative path of life and yet even that’s breakable we know just as he said he prayed and gave got 30 days we know that it must’ve been that very first day that he got touched he got drawn he got shot something and it has been proven that people who have not been believers for whatever happened to them whatever let them to have said God are you there and 100% of the people that truly do that will tell you they get an answer

    I get so upset when I hear "how simple it is"! ALONE for over 16 years...and NO ONE...online contacts that tell me God will bring people...Never has that happened...Never have I found a way to "Get People"...there are NO people that care...NONE. God is Real...People do NOT care...there are NONE. Your words are empty...everyone's words are empty

      @@lizmackey6865 NO. I have found NO church...nothing close; no one. visited ones close and did NOT find God there or love or caring; only rejection at the door or inside if I persisted on going in. I know of no Christians anywhere near. I live in isolation; not by choice - because I can find no one. I am a senior; it is hard or impossible to go far. I hear "wonderful words" online; words are empty...because people are empty. God is Real; HE alone. Sorry; I should have kept quiet, that is what is expected. I just get frustrated and it is hard to keep going

      @@blr759 I have learned if I look to get my needs met from people, I will be disappointed! I have also learned how important it is to everyday read my bible. To learn who God is and what he says is truth. To pray every day, in my heart, all day. And learn how to hear what God is saying to me through the Holy Spirit. When it comes down to it, it is not about you and anyone else. It's about you and God. I have been where I live now for 4 years. Have not found a good church yet. But I won't stop looking! For now, I watch online, The River at Tampa Bay Church, in Florida. There is a world of hurting, lost and unknowing people. Don't expect anyone to be perfect unless you expect that of yourself.

      @@debbiehedger7277 Thank you for trying to "help". God made Himself known to me almost 70 years ago. I Study the WORD everyday and I talk to God. I am NOT looking for people to give me any answers. The Lord said "it is NOT good for man (mankind) to be alone"...so Why am I left in total isolation for decades? The story is much longer.... Well meaning believers like you tell me the answers will come...God will not leave me alone. NOT true. Words are empty. 'It is NOT simple'. I wish you well.

      @@blr759 I am so sorry, when you said you were a senior I thought you met a senior in high school. I am past 60 years old, I too am alone. And when it gets hard to make it through a long quiet day I remember when Paul in the Bible was in prison, isolated, hurting physically and emotionally he said he never felt alone because he knew God was with him. I think that’s what God means when he said we are never alone because he is here with us in the presence of Holy Spirit.
      I read this one time and it really helps. At the end of the day, think of some your thankful for. For every one imagin it to be a flower. Imagin an empty vase beside you. And see if you can fill it up with a big beautiful bouquet. At fist I had to really think. I started with hearing the birds, the sunshine, my dog, my food, and it got easies when I thought about the gift of salvation, the gift of faith, my Bible, heaven……you get the picture. We have to stay positive, and hopeful. Other wise we lose our joy. Your right it is not simple! Most everyone has very difficult things to bear. We just may not know what it is. And therefore we don’t know how to help. So we say words that we think will help. Even if they don’t at least they tried. And that’s kindness. I hope God will reveal his love for you this Christmas in a very special way. Merry Christmas and I pray 2023 will be the best year of your life!
