    Really wish I could have made it to one of your last shows as a touring artist but listening to these sermons brings me so much joy and fills me with the Holy Spirit just from hearing them and emotion behind them. I don’t need to be at your concert, I just want to listen to your sermons cause it reminds me of how undeniably and unbelievably good God truly is

    Second time I watched that. Both times it moved me. Granger is doing what he was made to do. I don’t want to say I’m proud of Granger. I’ve heard him say he’s not fond of that word. So I’ll say I’m well pleased with you Granger. I believe in what you’re doing so much. I love your book too and have shared it with all that I can. I think you have and will lead a lot of people to Jesus, and that is just amazing. Blessings ❤

    What a powerful and beautiful message! I love listening to your sermons because I can feel how genuine your love of Christ is. I lost my faith after the catholic church turned its back on my family in our time of need. That was 19 years ago. My cousin posted one of your videos speaking about the loss of River. Your words and your faith in that video brought me back. In what had to be one of the worst moments a parent be in, you turned to God. Your book was sad and beautiful and heartbreakingly real. Granger, you sharing River's story touched me to my very soul. I thank River every night because his little soul helped bring my faith in God back. His light guided me back through your words. I truly thank you Granger. My soul thanks you. Thank God for you❤🙏🙏

      @Geraldinecomingtoyoulive Před 9 měsíci

      Truly everyone makes this about them. Jesus was not a bartender I can promise you that. However, so many Christians and non Christian’s think well Jesus turned water into wine. Wine in those days aren’t like today, number 1. Number two, women and children even drank wine because the water was bad. They diluted it 20 to 1 or 3 to 1 so they wouldn’t get that way. The Bible says do t look at it when it’s red. If it’s diluted it won’t be red. At that wedding when He made wine, the guest at the wedding said you saved the best wine for last!! It was the fruit if the vine as Jesus mentioned at the last supper. The fruit of the vine is juice. Not fermented wine like today. Was there fermented wine in those days? Absolutely, Noah got drunk. Lot got drunk. Everything revolved around fermented wine was bad. Nothing was good from it. If it causes your brother to stumble don’t do it. If I come to you with a Marlboro in one hand and a Budweiser in the other teaching you about Jesus and telling you my testimony, do you think you will take me that serious? 😮don’t listen to Christian’s that try to justify their sins

      The denomination isn’t what’s important friend. What is important is that Jesus is the only way!! He is the way, the truth, and the life. No other way…..Period!!! So I believe as some baptist do that once your saved your always saved? No. I don’t at all. There is to many scriptures that talk about people loving Him and going bad to the things of the world. He is married to a backslider. There will be tons of Christian’s that day that says Lord Lord and He will say depart from me, I never knew you!!

    one of many pastors who has no idea what this passage means. such a shame all the error in churches today. Deny yourself is in reference to your old self being crucified in Christ. 2 Cor 5:17
    That verse also says you are a new creation. So, if God makes you new, then why would you then turn around and deny that?? Makes no sense. So if you agree with this pastor you are saying God didn't know what he was doing when he made you new at salvation. This deny yourself passage is referring to non-believers. IT is a salvation passage. Jesus is saying, if you want to follow me, then turn away from your sinful ways, and put your trust in me.
    Think of it this way. if you are a Christian that means you already follow Jesus. Notice how Jesus starts with " if you want to follow me." HES not talking to believers. Why would a believer tell another believer they need to follow Jesus??? Yeah think about it. Makes no sense.

He wasn't enjoying the music business, wanted to preach, so started preaching. Where's the denying self? (I'm just tired of all the Christian pretense out there.)
