    Wow, what a great testimony. Watching the Holy Spirit move through Ryan’s story in his speech it was impactful. You could feel his emotions and connection of his young love for Jesus and he’s grown so much. Watching the vlogs of the family grow together in God’s love and joy has been why I’ve watched them for over 7 years now.

    I don’t know how I missed this! I feel like I’m watching my younger brother in a way! I’m so proud of Ryan for continuing to grow in his relationship with Christ! I pray the Lord continues to use Ryan and that he keeps that posture of worship and his willingness to move when God tells him to!

  • @barbk6544
    @barbk6544 Před 8 měsíci +48

    Congratulations to Ryan! He did an amazing job on his speech talking about his experience coming to know Jesus...got me all choked up. He is one special, young man, and I'm sure will touch the lives of many through his testimony. How proud you must be! This brought back memories of when I first accepted Christ into my heart and the overwhelming joy and love I felt. May God bless him and your family. TFS! 💜👍✝

    Great speech Ryan, I was in tears listening! I wish all young kids could go to a place like that to be closer to god and be a productive individual instead of going down the wrong path in life! 👍

    • @mary.1984
      @mary.1984 Před 8 měsíci +3

      Religion is a choice though, or at least should be presented as that and not forced upon someone who doesn't think it's right for them.
      And, some kids despite being part of a religion make choices that aren't the wisest.

    @johnmckenzie8669 Před 7 měsíci +7

    Jesus changes everything! When Ryan returned from Young Life Camp and said that it was the best week of his life, I knew EXACTLY what he meant. Hearing his testimony about that week and his journey since is an encouragement and inspiration.

    What a heart felt witness of conversion! It always amazes me on how many different ways the Holy Spirit can enter into someone’s soul. Publicly, surrounded by people you don’t even know, or through private meditation on our Lord. Most heart felt Ryan.

    Ive been watching your vlogs since your 2017 Disney cruise when Ryan would’ve been in middle school.
    I’ve just watched re-watched Ryan’s speech a couple of times and I honestly don’t know what else I can say apart from wow.. I’m in tears watching it. He speaks from the heart with so much maturity and passion for a young man of 17 years of age.
    Mike and Jill, what an incredible job you’ve done at raising your 3 children 👏🏼🤍

    I have been watching "It's the Donnellys" since the very beginning. I have watched Ryan grow in so many ways over the last few years, but today in the blink of an eye I see you as a young man. I am so proud of you. I am so proud of your parents and the example they set for the rest of us. Keep growing, keep walking the right path. Congratulations!

    Ryan! You nailed that speech. What a positive, moving and profound testimony. As a subscriber to your family channel, I hope you don’t find it strange when I tell you how proud we are of you. Public speaking is difficult and frightening, especially when talking about personal issues. Congratulations on your growing relationship with Jesus and the excellent friendships you’ve made.Also, not a dry eye in our house.🥹

  • @CnHPureCaneSugar1
    @CnHPureCaneSugar1 Před 8 měsíci +1

    I don't remember when I started watching Flippin' Kate, but it had to have been 8 years ago and I found your channel through the Bratayley channel. It has been an absolutely amazing ride watching all the kids grow up; from the swim meets, water polo games, gymnastic meets, golf with buddies like Graham, that first year at VidCon and all the wonderful trips. But the most amazing part has been literally watching Ryan grow up. He was always a great kid and I remember your comment about his tender heart; to watch him deal with the move so well, jump into his new life with both feet with gusto has been great.
    Ryan still has that tender heart and he is just a terrific young man. I get hope for the future seeing him and his friends, and Kate and Brennan's too. Congrats to Jill and Daddy-o for the great parenting. It will be sad when Mike does his car count and the answer is only "1" and "2", but that is what life is.
    Frankly I hope Ryan is applying to schools like Belmont, Westmont and Florida Southern. Florida State has been great for the older kids, but I think Ryan would thrive in a smaller school.

    Can’t believe Ryan did had a speech at Young Life Banquet as a senior. But we were planning to go the Halloween event outside but it’s too cloudy and rainy and cold but they canceled it. But what made me happy is listening to 1989 Taylor’s Version because her album came out. Also I’ve been to church every Sunday as well. But sometimes Saturday and learning about our Christ of our savior. But I really love that church that I went to in Wichita. But they done a livestream too.
