British Priest Reacts to "everything i wanted" (BILLIE EILISH)

*to elaborate, she did it by jumping off of the Golden Gate Bridge and no one, not even her fans cared, and all media was just talking badly of her etc, and the only person who cared was her brother, and when she woke up he comforted her

her brother cares cause he on some alabama shit you ever seen the girl he’s dating she looks EXACTLY the same

The official danny devito KRplus channel oof ew

So what its a nightmare, we shouldnt be coddled for every little thing

@@altyaltyalt how do you mean?

Just like me😂

Exactly

Well that's supposed to be what every should do. Open arms and heart To everyone. And Chris is definitly one of them 🧡

Yup

If there would be more religious people as progressive like him, it would be so much bettter!

I agree with you, I'm an atheist, always will be, but, when he talks and how he about Christianity and the church........he makes me want to go to church and learn everything about it. And when he talks about suicide and how you aren't going to hell that just touched me.

Yes. I have had religious trauma and will never convert back to Christianity, but I feel safe with him. I feel I could talk to him and ask the hard questions without judgement because of my disability or sexuality or gender identity. As someone who has attemped, and was ridiculed by my religious friends, him saying that suicide is not ‘bad’ and that he (and He) understands. I want him to tell me that even though I’m an atheist through and through, God still loves me, if he’s out there.

I'm not him but I would say God loves you and always loves you whatever you are or you've done

Christianity is forgiving and warm. And God loves you💕 sending love and hugs y’all way ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

It is sad that not more Christians are like him when the things he says just holds so much Christian values. I had a very bad experience when I was young at church. Which made me have a bad relationship with God for many years. I had to learn many things about God, that many religious people forget, to be able to find my way back to him. I still do not label my believe, I love God and I know he loves me, but religion is so full of toxic people. Listening to him, though, it's just so therapeutic to me. Like you said, "breath of fresh air"

Same man that helped me a lot

That alone was enough to clear thoughts of ending everything actually. This priest is on the right career track....

@Nahema He's not a fake preacher nah no way.
But I get what you are saying. But God will forever forgive you, no matter what and you can never be too late for forgiveness.
He said God understands your pain as well, which is like saying he has sympathy towards you, well he does and he loves you.
If you are Christian then you will go to heaven anyway, no matter what you do.
God will always forgive you.

@Nahema this is the stance that the church USED to take. However they have sense taken it back. Just food for thought.

That is a lie he’s a false prophet that likes to candy coat these things the Bible warns us of these types of the people in the last days you commit suicide you’re going to hell that’s the truth this man is giving you false information don’t fall for it

Is it true

But what if...you really go to hell for suicide? And it would be too late by then.. no one can assume there isn't such punishment because no one really knows. But what if....

I have a friend that is indigo. She can see ghosts. And she has seen so many ghosts that suffer in their “world” cz they entered that “world” by suiciding. They said that they hurt,they regret,and they cry for help. So i hope you know that suicide is not a way to get rid of ur problems. And in my opinion, i think.. “suicide doesnt give you peace as you want.” And i hope that whenever you feel depressed, remember that u have God that care about you and always by your side, He has His right time and best time to lift you up. And remember that u have family and friends, they might seem busy when you need them, but when you tell them that you need them, they have very much time to listen to your story, just dont have a negative thought like “they dont care about me”. Please. They care. But people are just sometimes busy with their own life. Sometimes they are the one who come to you first, but sometimes you have to be the one to go to them to tell your story so they will know and understand you. So cheer up! Just realize that you’re so loved by many people. I love you. God do. Your family and friends do.

@@jessykaren524 this was greatly needed, thank you ❤️

Corinthians 3:16-17 Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.
In all honesty nobody wants to die so PLS don't do it. There's a bunch of other sources (help) and so much to live for and stay for even if in that moment you can't see it. We don't know what happends after death but why find out before our time? It may be to late. If you can't feel the love just try and remember, you are NEVER alone, there's always someone watching over you✨🙏 Stay blessed ✨❤️

@@njay4399 well, yeah, that’s the ‘on the surface’ meaning.

And yet that’s the phrase everyone makes fun of now..

Fr, I had the biggest smile on my face

The funny thing is, Jesus/God is actually portrayed like this in the Bible. There's even a verse in the Old Testament that goes, "Oh, how can I give you up, Israel? How can I let you go? How can I destroy you like Admah or demolish you like Zeboiim? My heart is torn within me, and my compassion overflows." (Hosea 11:8). This is after ancient Israel went against God and basically the mercy of God doesn't want them to go through the consequences of their own actions (i.e. separation from God)

Anu R you forgot the most important part where Ollie says, ‘can you change your name’ 😂

what about ferb?

@@buttercuppixie7859 I love you, but wrong spelling, it's Pherb

Haha yes that was such a good part

Me too

Same

Your local church's rev might be an even cooler person. Go and find out

@@normalbuerger from my experience that often depends on two things: denomination and context. I'm an Atheist, but I've always found in my own personal experience that Lutheran pastors are more likeable to me than say, Catholic priests. On the other hand, with regards to context, the Lutheran pastors at the schools I attended were completely intolerant and painful to be around.
I admire Chris' perspective on these things because so many pastors I've known would address mental health in terms of God alone, and instruct prayer, rather than offer any form of practical, real comfort.

I would an I'm a Christian

same, it proves that even the purest of the pure, who walked with angels and on water, weep and feel greif.

It reminds me that I’m not weak bc I cry or feel things too deeply. The king of kings even cried and grieved.

Yes because his humanity is expressed. That’s why it’s so easy sometimes to come to him 💕

The first time I read this verse, it hit me so hard (in a good way). I just kept staring at those two words 'cause they mean so much. Now whenever I feel any emotion, I see Jesus sharing it with me: He was weeping with me when I wept, & rejoicing with me when I rejoiced. In these I can empathise with others & do the same thing too.

i'm sorry it is beautiful but all i could think of was dean pelton💀

Fr

yes

💯

Yall @jolly should do something like that, like get Billie to unknowingly react to these videos, and then yanno, make it clear this isnt tryna convert bil but then let her and rev Chris talk to each other, like for fun it will be super wholesome, i hope you guys can do something like that :)

I have to agree, he comes across as interestingly open minded and relaxed. Now if all priests across the board had those qualities and had less fire and brimstone. Good man, I hope he stays a good man for the rest of his life, bless his soul.

:)

Same. I always get worried before I click because Im so used to disgustingly judgemental priests. But, He's someone I'd love to hangout and just talk with. He's just so sweet and non judgemental.

Same, he is the representation of the great side of religion, the one we forget because of the bad ones!

Exactly.

I heard so many people point out this line and I've never quite been able to understand what exactly it means

@@bricantdoanythingtbh332 same! anybody can explain it? :)

What does the line mean?

@@vodz-ws5yr In my opinion, I interpret it to mean they (as in the public, haters maybe) expect her to be this strong, invincible figure. She's a celebrity so they think she's untouchable and hurl verbal assault at her, and then call her weak for letting it get to her. In actuality, when you strip down her celebrity, she's just someone's daughter, like everybody else. She has feelings, and vulnerabilities like a normal person.

@@stellacaverly1170 yeah, that makes sense. My only question is why does everyone relate to that. Idk ab you but I've never been a celebrity. Maybe some people feel weak for being human?

This is hear breaking... God bless you... I hope you find peace and comfort🤍

I'm so sorry, that's horrible. I 've lost a friend to suicide, he was a twin as well. Sending lots of love @J Godwin

I’m sorry for your loss. Hope you’re doing well

Oh dear, I'm so sorry for your loss. It must felt really hurt to lost 2 of important people in your life that you love so much. I hope you're doing better now. I am not a Christian, but I pray your dad is in a good place and a good hand right now, along with your mom. I hope they reunite in heaven happily♥️ sending love and hugs to you

How are you doing now ? Is it too late to ask after 1 year ? I genuinely hope that you are doing good !! You seem like a strong person and in the moments you are not, i hope you know that you are heard and seen.

I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I hope you’re better now. ❤️❤️❤️

Judas is in hell not because of its suicide but because he didn't ask for forgiveness, he refused to surrender to his Mercy, he wasn't sorry for what he did. If you haven't done it yet, read the beautiful opera of Maria Valtorta, obviously it's a private revelation but it clears very much the Judas'character.
The Catholic Church doesn't refuse to anyone the funeral even to a suicide because only God knows why someone did a thing like that, in what state of mind or psychological state he was at the moment and we can't know if he repent of it. We don't know if someone were capable of understanding and willing.
I guess you know Saint Father Pio from Pietralcina, to the many people that were asking him if they suicide relatives or friends were saved, he answered yes, but they maybe where in purgatory.
Nobody can judge something or someone, cause we only know what we see or what someone told us about it, but only God knows deeply the heart and soul of any person.
Pray for your relatives, take the indulgences of the Church for them, having Masses said for them, do Communions for them and believe me, no one of them were left alone when they passed away ❤️
A big huge hug to you ♥️ God bless you!
( Sorry if I made some mistakes, but English is not my first language 🤗 )

I just want to let you know that this was really beautifully written and I cried reading it. I really empathize with your struggles and the thoughts you had in the aftermath. Your parents raised a really amazing person and you are a credit to them. I hope today was kinder to you.

Marloes k thats my take away from that line. Trying to scream (for help) but your head is underwater. Touches on so much

Still though I love that feeling when you’re under water and everything is quite. As loud as children might be with laughing and screaming on the top the second your head is under the water just nothingness. Surrounded by lots and lots of people but there you are all on your own. Like in your own world.
With all the negativity associated with quietness and being misunderstood still somehow it’s soothing.
Depression is fucked up.

Exactly... when I had a severe depression 6 years ago (I was a teenager) it felt like I was drowning in a dark water or at least wandering in a mist: couldn't breath normally and couldn't talk or sleep. Everything was blurry and other people's words were so quiet I couldn't hear them. It was a scary place and it is... because I can't escape from it even now when I am adult. I feel weaker and weaker, everything is scary and I can't find my place. Soon I'll be suffocating again and I can't help it. I mean, sometimes depression can't be cured even with help of therapists and medication... sometimes person just doesn't belong in this world at all. I don't know if I'll commit suicide or not but every year makes it harder for me and I've lost most of my hope... (srry for mistakes, not native speaker)

I've always said that my depression feels like I'm drowning. Sometimes it feels like I'm reaching out but no one has noticed that I'm sinking or maybe I just can't see the people trying to help.

I have the opposite reaction in my head. I've suffered from occasional periods of depression over the past few years, and it's a far more airy feeling. It felt like being scorched by the hot desert winds, beaten by the sun, wandering all alone.
I actually feel like I'm underwater when I'm content, ironically. Whenever I get a massage, say an important prayer, or play a video game with friends, it just feels like I'm sinking to the bottom of the ocean floor, leaving my problems on the surface and embracing the deep.

No

No

No you're not

I cry every time he talks about Billie's songs that have to do with depression. It makes me feel slightly less alone and a little happier in a way like the feeling of having the guidance and support you never had in real life.

Ferdaine Mangawang I teared up definitely. Rev Chris’ philosophy is beautiful. If all Christians were like him I wouldn’t be as hesitant as I am to regain my faith

Ollie is the Finneas for a lot of people I am sure. I dont remember which video but I remember him talking about their friend and he couldnt even hide his sadness. I didnt know the reason before this video.

Oh please, believe again. It really is unfortunate that christians, as flawed persons, fail so much to practice commandments so simple (and i say that about myself too, there is so much that i fail to do), but believe in me, or better, believe what is written in the bible, God don't fail with you . Please, give another try, read again Jesus's words as a start. There is nothing wrong in believe that there is someone that loves you unconditionaly and cares about you all the time.

@@calebe4266 Amen

And if you say you're gonna add Billie Eilish to your playlist as a priest, you need Jesus alot more!

@@jdruiz_95 you are probably everything that is wrong with christianity

Please do come back. I feel the church more and more has been adopting more conservative politics specially in America and we really need people like you with more complex understandings of the faith. I felt like I couldn't be catholic and gay for the longest time thinking I'd have to give up god becuase of what those around me were saying but as I started looking deeper into scripture I found I had grown closer to god not the other way around. Christians can sometimes be the least christian people ever but that is not a reflection on the goodness of god himself or the church as a whole.

I can tell you my dad is also a priest but they have to do a service in a certain way, you only see what the priests are really like when you talk to them out of the way, in our services there is usually a section called the talk where my dad talks about humouress things but he has to stick to the pew sheets. No doubt Chris does too and I'm also guessing he prefers the bit at the end where he can actually talk to people.

@@guineapig5858 not all have a script to stick to. Where i'm from they relate the bible's teachings in their own way to the congregation.

I agree.

He does sermons on insta I think

DevynnEBMusic same. I grew up as a Christian and now that I’m just about 18. With many other Christian views and talks. It’s very hard for me to want to go on as a Christian because i don’t like the ideal, that we all were created but then we are unaccepted because we like more than one gender or the same gender. Or feel the opposite gender etc. like if he created us like that? Then why is it unacceptable, you know? I hate how many of them try to make people feel bad or guilty?? just to steer them away from that thing? It’s just frustrating. But if I felt like I wasn’t being judged and was able to have a rational convo out of religious views as well, like these awesome guys. I wouldn’t be so depressed going to church and feeling so shitty from the way they explain things. I wish I could go to this guys church because I actually feel much better and accepted for my flaws, rather from the churches I know, that make me feel terrible for all the flaws and shit I have done and struggle with. You know?

@@krewlicious4777 bro calm down.

@@krewlicious4777 Truue

that one made me cry a bit...because its perfectly true

Firstly, I sincerely hope you are feeling in a better place mentally!
I understand what you are saying, and I think the way you worded everything is both very insightful and feels true.
I also found the way you interpreted what Ollie said very interesting, I took the meaning of that totally different.
Please correct me if I'm mistaken, but the way you wrote it, makes me interpret it as 'he didn't consider that it would hurt us at all.'
Ollie said he struggles with the question of 'Did he think (when he did that) that we wouldn't care?' Which for me, means something different than that. For me that feels more like Ollie is wondering if his friend felt like they didn't/wouldn't care about him/his death. The way he said that, made me think that he is wondering why/how his friend could think that they wouldn't care, that Ollie thinks that their care/love for him was obvious and how could he not see that?
And I think that that is a really hard question to deal with as a loved one, bc I think that opens the door to questions like
'If I did this, would he have know then? If he had known, would it not have happened?'
And later even anger and questions like
'If he knew that we cared, how could he do this to us? Does he not care about us then?'
And while people who have had those experiences themselves know that is (probably) not the case, Ollie (luckily) does not have that same insight and doesn't quite understand the way it messes with your head, your reality, your world view even.
For example, these thoughts make me very egotistical. When I have (had) suicidal thoughts, I only feel MY pain, think that I can't deal with it. While I knew my family and friends love me and care and it would hurt them, it didn't feel real; it didn't hold any weight to that other feeling. It's not that I didn't care that they'll hurt, I felt like they will ultimately hurt LESS, and so will I.
But those revelations often don't make our loved ones feel good, and it takes time for them to even slightly understand, be able to not feel guilty or angry etc. If they even get those revelations, bc a lot of loved ones also just have an endless amount of questions, which also doesn't feel good.
Sorry for the long message, I hope you understand what I'm trying to say and see where I'm coming from.

So true I love his point of view on life and just things💚🖤

It's because he forgets about religion and being religious. He just has a relationship with Christ and that's what it's all about.

I am Christian and love Jesus Christ but often lost faith in church and pastors/priests because many of them just flat out judgemental and makes me doubt my faith. I am just grateful there are still priests and pastors like Rev. Chris out there.

Same! Also the religious perspective becomes so interesting when I listen to rev chris's thoughts and insights. I enjoy rev chris episodes & his 60 sec sermons a lot even tho i don't rlly have a religion.

@@Keithlynd_ me too

Love this culture lesson. Would you mind sharing which culture this is? I was just trying to remember if it’s similar to something Cypriots say. Personally, I felt the timing was to do with repressed feelings but that’s my psychoanalytic background.

What culture is this?

I don't know which culture you are referring to but I've heard it said plenty of times when someone sneezes at a poignant time "Sneeze to the truth." I've said it myself when appropriate.

That's in Armenian culture 🙂

Pamela Hofman yeah I think that's similar to what I was referring to

I’m so sorry for your loss! Would you like to share some stories about your son? What type of a person was he?

@@Ava-cw3jf thank you for asking! He was kind... Seeing people hurt others hurt his heart. He told people he wished he could absorb all of the pain in the world. I can't take it when people feel like they can stand in judgement of him. I know where he is because he tells me, usually making me smile or even laugh. He could hear something on the radio and then casually play it on his keyboard.. with not one piano lesson! But his instrument (s) of choice was percussion. There were so many people who shared stories of him being kind. Those are precious to me.. I know who I raised and who holds him close now. Thank you, it's nice to share what an amazing person he was . Who has a medical condition called depression that he died from.

@@teressakarl9184 he sounds like a lovely young man, you must have raised him well. I’m sure that the Lord is helping him with his illness up in Heaven, and he is watching over and protecting you x

For anyone who said your son is in hell, share Father Chris Alar's KRplus video, Mercy After Suicide. Amazing.

Meghan Harless if only more Christians were like this not just judge you and tell you if u do bad your going to hell

@@ariannalacen297 Hate to say it but those aren't what I would consider real Christians. Yes, we recognize sin but the last thing we want is people going to hell, that's why we often come off judgmental or pushy. People who actually say rubbish things to non-believers are just.... well.... a disgrace to true Christians.

If only the rest of us were as accepting, caring and compassionate as Rev Chris here. He honestly inspires me so much. He's the type of Christian I want to be.

Arianna Lacen The reason Christians come off as judgmental is because we’re trying to help you I’m not saying yelling at somebody telling there going to hell is completly ok but,
Through Gods word we know what’s coming and we’re fulfilling the great commission that Jesus gave all Christians. And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Mark 17:15.

God bless

Could not have said it better. I get asked so many times why I self harmed (by people I don't even know, rude!) and I always say that it was just a phase that is over now, but the question still rages inside me every time. Like, you know it is irrational, but only as soon as you have done the harm. And then you feel the shame. And to explain that feeling, that desperate never ending circle, is very hard if the other person is not open and understanding.

I read somewhere that suicide is just like any other essential organ in your body failing to function as it does that results in your death. In the case of maybe something like heart disease, it's the heart. In the case of suicide, it's the brain.

Ana Paola Abreu
In about two weeks I'm one year clean from self harm, and not going to lie, I still struggle every day. When my mom found out she threatened to send me to a mental hospital. At the time I was around 8 months clean but I relapsed because of it :') a couple of my friends are struggling with it too, and we're lucky to have each other, having people who understand and support you can really make the difference

Shayan That's a.. Strangely comforting way to look at it. A lot of the time people assume that depression is very obvious, and that suicidal people stay locked away in their rooms all day, but the truth is that it can be silent and then suddenly get very very bad.. Kind of like a cancer

@@Someone-vv8er ....that 's true 🥺

Yes! I love reading the comments on these videos and seeing so many people saying "I'm and atheist, but" or "I'm muslim, but" and then saying how much they love listening to Rev Chris and how he portrays Christianity. And the people who talk about having walked away from their faith for various reasons and how he makes them consider giving it another chance. I truly think that this platform is providing him an incredible opportunity to be used by God to show people who would never step into a church the truth of who He is, and Rev Chris rises to the occasion.

But he's not the only one

There's quite a number of us, really...the problem is that most Christians are either to legalistic or too liberal, and that's when you start having problems

actually, most christians are like this but they're the silent majority.

Right? I’m not religious but enjoy his thought process. Most of the Christians I meet are very judging and very pushy. So these comments that say the majority are like this.. Cant agree or maybe it’s just the area I live in.

Hes kinda not though. I asked him what his thought on atheism is and he said out right that being an atheist is wrong. No its not...believing in an imagery being who lives in the sky is wrong. Religion is a fairytail for people who are afraid of the dark

I just sat down for a whole 15 minutes thinking about this as well. It also seemed unfair and not to blaspheme here, but cruel, that God would do that y'know. But I've thought about it and my only conclusion is that, God is the only one who really knows what to do with lost souls and those who depart from us. Humans cannot assume. So are they going to hell? Only God can decide

If a young person dies because of something like a drunk driver hitting them, everybody says God just took them away earlier than the people still on earth wanted to. If we are going to assume those unfair reasons for dying are Gods doing, chances are that suicide is also Gods doing.
Other than that, I also think a lot of people are different because of the way they where raised. If you could only go to heaven if you followed a specific type of Christianity (idk about the US, but in Europe it is so devided), almost no one could go because they where born into the wrong type of religion. So I think if there is a heaven everybody who was as good a person as they could be will go to heaven. In that case a lot of people who commited crimes/immoral things will also go to heaven (If you are super desperate for money to buy food for your kids, so you smuggle drugs that might kill some user, does that make you such a bad person that you don't go to heaven?). I think suicide falls in a "it was not a good thing you did, but we can forgive you" category and you can still go to heaven despite it.

I've learned that everyone can go to heaven. You can only go to heaven when you choose the way to god. Like Gods loves every single one of us♡ and I'm sorry for your loss..

It's always killed me deep down and mentally put me down when I've been told "you're going to hell" for a number of things. Chris gives me so much joy in knowing I'm not alone. Just listening to his words makes me so happy and calms me down. I used to just think we'll if I'm going to hell that means no one really cares (I used to be suicidal) but this calms me down bc I'm so scared of losing someone to suicide and not being able to save them, but if it did happen at least I know they will be in a good place.

Angel's Life thank you for sharing! I believe that we as humans will never realize just how loving, forgiving and kind God really is. His love for us is beyond our wildest imagination. And all the cruel people who told you that were wrong. God tells us to love each other and offer support when one of us needs it but instead of that they tell you those unkind words and think that they have the right to judge you. Never listen to them - if you have God and love in your heart He will lead you to heaven.

Yeah, and when Billie wanted to write a song about it they all got into a family fight so the song remaind unfinished for about two years i think. Then Billie remembered it, but Finneas didn't want to write a song about Billie commiting suicide because he wanted to make it something positive, so they made it about their relationship instead. Finneas even sings in the chorus of the actual recording.

It's not a nightmare for billie. It Actually a thing that she wanted to do, thats why she said She got everything she wanted in that dream, suicide is a thing that she wanted. "It might have been a nightmare, to anyone who might care" it's nightmare was not meant for billie but for anyone who care billie.

glad your still here 💗

Never leave u deserve to be loved and feel happy 💓

i’m so glad that you are still here to share your story and inspire others 💕 thank you for sharing your story and congrats on your baby!

One of the best things i heard today

Every Sunday podcast.

Yes! I see so many comments about people saying they would go to church if rev Chris was their priest and that could be a way to reach out to everyone

He has a KRplus channel tho

Totally. I definitely need that.

Totally agreed. If I have lived in his parish, I would have attended his church, and I am agnostic.

Try to watch this, the title is the purpose of life. krplus.net/bidio/mcqknpeGc2nUnoo

RIGHT?! omg. Every.Time

I agree 1000000%

Pam Foo yes!!!!!

They’re gonna tear her down just like MJ :(

I saw so many hate comments under Billie's Instagram posts saying that she's Satan's puppet and honestly these people are so annoying

They just have shallow thinking. I love rev chris and his way of thinking. Hope everyone have that 😔

Fbm

Memes make me Oof I didn’t expect anyone to reply.. thank you so much 🥺☺️

Tentenn ? fbm?

I know how after world is i know a lot i not lie

Hell doesn't exist. you don't need anyone to tell you that. THere's no proof of anything after death. So why torment yourself over someone else's made up place. It's good that you feel better when this guy says it. But he's a symbol of the institution that created the idea of hell. And it was created to scare people. Don't be scared by this made up stuff. I'm sorry about your father. I hope wherever he is, he is happy or at peace x

This made me cry. I myself am suicidal and depressed and I’m only 11 years old. I see my friends talk about depression in a way that they think it’s cool, that makes me so mad. I hear people telling me that I’m not alone, I won’t deny that it does make me feel better sometimes, but it seems so meaningless. They say I’m not alone but they can’t see when I’m really down. One of the hardest things is to pretend that you’re fine when you’re not. I could be crying in my bedroom and the next moment I could be singing at a birthday party and no one would know how bad I feel. Why I would want to commit suicide is because I feel that my feelings don’t matter. It will only matter when I’m not there once it’s done. Then people will feel what I felt without having to explain it. And I won’t have to feel it anymore.
The reason I’m saying this is because I know it’s gonna feel good to have it out there. Not bottled up inside me. Free for everyone to see without them knowing who I am. A fragment of the past.
So for the person who read it all the way down. I genuinely hope you have an amazing day.

I'm just going to Say ... Beautiful thank you.

This actually made me cry cause I feel the exact same

@@evajuliazuhdy2353You're not alone. There are thousands of people like you maybe even around you who can help you and give you support. I can tell that there are people who don't believe you have depression and think you're just trying to be cool but just ignore them. Also, you don't have to pretend, tell people what and how you're feeling, telling someone you trust will make you feel amazing , seriously. You have my support, have an amazing day! 💖

Hey. This whole thread has been really good for me to read and soak up. I've been in the thick of a bout of depression that has been harder to shake off than any other that I've gone through. I'm trying to start to reach out for help, but unlike times in the past, I don't have a therapist to go to right now. But just being part of this community has been a ray of sunshine and hope for me. I hope someday I can tell Josh & Ollie and the team about how much they mean to me. I grew up in the church because my parents are missionaries, and I've married a man who also grew up in the church. But that doesn't mean life isn't hard like it is for everyone else. It just means that I am more equipped to sort out these things in my life that are hurting me, and that I have Someone to bring them to.

Words will never be able to describe how much I agree with you. I'm *VERY* happy to see rev. Chris represent my faith properly

@@goldenapplesaga5446 yeah ,me too.

He's not saying let's burn that witch.That's a thing,i guess lol

@@trustno1339 SO many people talk about burning Billie cause she's a witch

@@cupcakejack7375Oh My dear,Must be the season of the witch😼

I’m sorry the people you met were very judgmental and not the most understanding. I’m still Christian but I hope things go well for you :) 💜. Also I agree with your comment.

Jane Nam Church and christianity should never have been one of casting out, judging or fire and brimstone. Yet they were. Thankfully thats turning around. While christianity stands in stark odds with modern views of homosexuality, abortion etc... at no point should we stop loving them and treating them with Love and respect.

True statement!

I want to know, what is your definition of ' judge ' ?

SilenceKxng judging as in discriminating against a person because they are a certain way or look different. Which is wrong.
The principle to follow is to never call out the splinter in someones eye when you have a log in your own.
- Matthew 7:3

Keep fighting 🖤

Same

Hi. I am an introvert but I always find it useful to place myself near people with positive energy like meditation or dance classes, when I am feeling down. I hope you have or will have places where you can recharge your spiritual energy periodically.

@안_해리 exactly, i feel the same as you

Can i send you virtual hug?

Even so, don't take your own life. Things might be hard now, but suicide is a permanent decision about a temporary problem. Things will get better, you will meet new people, and you just need to do things that make you happy and live life to the fullest. Just trust me when I say things WILL get better.

@b Don't take your life look in the mirror and repeat after me " I am worthy , I am beautiful and wonderful " it will get better I promise you . I promise. If you ever need to talk to someone text suicide hotline. ❤️

It is a relief, hearing that if you or someone else makes/made a mistake that ended their life, they won't be in Hell. And it's important to remember all the big AND small things that makes life enjoyable. From cookies to the way it smells after a rainstorm to hugging a close friend.

Eowyn Urbuda Exactly what I was going to say!

Same, I started bawling my eyes out
Sending you a virtual hug~

When I was at the worst point in my depression, I felt weird because I was tired of living and dealing with the shit i had to deal with, but whenever I tried to take my life, there was a part of me that was afraid of dying, and ig I knew that I would end up regretting it, even tho my life was shit. Idk what that says about me but ig I'm stronger than I think🐖

It’s like drowning but when u look around everyone else is there but they can breathe just fine

Yes and when he looked up his eyes were teary. Just really wanted to hug him at the moment

And look at Josh throughout that time, he seemed so affected also

Josh literally couldn't speak throughout it. I pray for even more healing for these beautiful people!

I honestly cried...

And Josh's face. 💔

I’m sorry to hear that. Truth is, nobody has any right to say someone is going to hell. That decision is completely up to God. Besides, that’s just a terrible thing to just straight up tell someone. I hope you’re doing ok now.

Similar reason I stopped being religious as well - the people I trusted the most at church, the few people I thought I could trust turned their backs on me and spewed vitriol at a time I needed help and compassion the most.

@@mimicopenthatchest3297 i hope ure doing okay tho. i stopped being religious too

No one knows if someone is in hell or heaven! Let’s just have faith that God is forgiving our loved ones and at the end he will forgive us all.

Mimic Openthatchest why stop being religious because man failed you? God never failed you.

good to know milk isn't your only poison

Only Ollie

I kinda waited for josh to pull out their jolly merchandise hat hehe

At what time did he say that ?😅

@@whattheflipisuptubers5744 11:21

earthly firefly5 ok

earthly firefly5 cool

@earthly firefly5 can u explain that to me on other words cuz i dont really undertand it (english is not my first language)

earthly firefly5 Literally sounds like a cult mate, but you do you, I suppose

@@giulianarosenfeld9900 please don't feel bad. English is my first language and I'm equally confused 😂

Condolence

I’m so sorry!

a young man said in his last words to his family "I have tried my best in my life, I just couldn't take it anymore, ......what else to say, please just be happy for me, even if you can't send me away smiling but please don't blame me, I'm so tired, goodbye"
my condolences, hope your father is in a better place now

Im so sorry my sincere condolences

Tá brón orm , mo chomhbhrón

💕keep going luv, it’ll get better. Believe me when I say I know it hurts, but it’s amazing to be able to overcome the feeling

@@Someone-oj9jp thanks so much, I’m hoping once I can get approved for meds that it might help a little but idk

Jasper I have a condition where my body doesn’t get vitamin D naturally(I have to take it through pills), so I get depressed and anxious really easily. What helps me is my service dog. I don’t want to impose that you should or shouldn’t get one but that’s just my experience. I’m praying for u ❤️ 🙏

I promise you it’ll get better, I know it’s hard but you gotta stay strong ♥️♥️

Hello, I was where you are. I was in a very bad place, and now I have recovered. Through therapy though, not meds. But either way, I can promise to you, it gets better. You are loved, even if your illness tells you otherwise. You'll be fine!

I'm so glad you're doing better now! It is important to know that people care about you! Lots of love! 💖💖💕💖💕🌞☺😊

That voice in your head is not the truth

You are completely right!

It's really crazy that an illness could make you feel that. One moment someone told you that they love you but the next moment you feel like no one cares about you. There has been moments of weakness in my life where I succumbed to what my depression is feeding my mind but I always try to remember that my mind is flawed and not everything I think is true.

Yes! Especially our family 😊

I’m a Muslim too .
His understanding to such stuff is great
but then again this is his job😂
I enjoy listening to him cuz most of what he
says is acceptable in our religion...
He also has an incredible personality

Islam and Christianity have a lot of overlap. And you don't have to believe in Jesus as a prophet to connect to a story if it helps you spiritually

Compassion holds no creed after all

I enjoy seeing people see that they aren’t that different in their core beliefs; their morals and values. It’s a beautiful thing. I appreciate you recognizing that we aren’t that different spiritually.

I m hindu AND OMG I LOVEEEE CHRIS I NEEED A PODCAST😭❤️

Same I'm a convinced atheist but I can listen to this dude all day

I relate so much. For me, I feel so trapped because I'm stuck in this world where I really want to die, but I'm too weak to end myself (because I'm really scared of the pain)

@@jaideyellen1044 i havent committed because i feel like I would be weak after and then no one would care or they would and it hurts them. So yea it probably didnt make sense but it doesn't matter

I’ve tried and failed it’s not a fun experience I’ve been on the verge of death before it’s not fun you think it’s worth it and then you just have an uncontrollable feeling of guilt and fear when you survive that feelings haunts you and yet you still feel the same way I haven’t seeked out the help I need I don’t plan to either just know the fear is haunting and yea just don’t attempt I’m stuck in this rabbit hole if you think you have a chance to get out though don’t pass it up

I have half suicidal thoughts I don't feel anything when thinking about it or in general I really don't feel emotions as hard as most people but I think about how I and anyone at any point can take their life at any given moment including me and, well I don't know how to describe it but just skip to end, I'm not suicidal, just very dark and dead inside and entire class is still at square one trying to figure me out and I can give them false leads at any time

Syniah Outlooks absolutely agree with you and felt that. In both views. Because as someone who’s been so close to doing such harm to myself because of the pain I felt and the pain my thoughts and feelings Caused me. I totally get how mental health makes you think and feel. But as someone who’s also had others in the same feeling and place, with friends, family and my own partner. I know the pain of wondering why people can’t see that I and many others truly care and want them here. That the pain of them being gone. Not being able to help. It’s such an awful pain that I don’t even feel. It worse than anything else I’ve ever felt. It’s is absolutely so heartbreaking. It’s so so devastating. Nothing else feels as worse as the thought of those I care about gone. I understand both sides. Hints why I’m still here. I might not think I should be here but I know others might feel the same way if I wasn’t here anymore. I could never cause that pain on anyone I care about. Ending my life might end my pain. But it starts new unwanted and unliviable pain in many others. It’s not worth it. I hurt knowing I could make others feel that way and i don’t ache so bad to cause others to feel much worse than I do now. And that’s not fair to them and I know it’s just my mental health lying to me. Manipulating my emotions and views. So I try my best to work through it all and keep pushing past. Which is why I seeked therapy and help. Realizing that many of these people who I reached out have either been there themselves so they totally understand or they’re people who truly want to understand and truly do want to help. For me, I felt it was worth seeking out help. When I finally opened up to my family and others that i was going through this. I found out that many people understood and went through the same thing and my family did care. They showed that and now I’m doing much better. I’m thankful I’ve gotten help. It at least did help me. I don’t know if it will help others but I did reaching out is better then nothing. But that’s just my view and opinions

Same friend

I know this is not what this comment is about (sorry) but the original "purpose" of religious leaders, long before large organised religions, was to guide people and to help them, to console them and support them. They were originally like therapists and some (like Rev Chris) still are. Therapists have a different kind of training and don't bring religion into a session but apart from that they kind of do the same job.
I am sad that this position is often lost in organised religion now because it is so important. So whenever I see Rev Chris actually talking about eg. mental health it makes me really happy.

Same HE would be the perfect therapist for like every single soul on this world

Honestly, people using faith for positivity without condemning people is needed so much.

Right?! But still love my therapist

Christy darlin we all need a rev. Chris!!!!!!

I read this comment as soon as she sang those lyrics
