God saved my life! | Andrew Klavan 

C. S. Lewis said "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else". Seems to apply here. GOD bless you Mr. Klavan.

I am in tears. I have been so depressed, but the words “sometimes you have to play in pain” will stick with me at least for today. Thank you Andrew

Thank you, Andrew, for your testimony. I was once suicidal until Jesus gave me the gifts of a patient husband, awesome children, and wonderful Christian friends who loved me back to life. He will never leave you nor forsake you.❤

This man helped me to find my way back to God. His words on Religion explain the idea with clarity and helped make sense of my faith puzzle.

Outside the Holy Spirit and my Nana, klavan has had the biggest impact on me becoming a Christian.

Klavan is a treasure. His Memoir, The Great Good Thing, where he shares his journey toward Christ in beautiful detail, is a must read!!

Great witness, heartfelt & genuine. Praise the mighty name of Jesus!!!

I Iove Andrew Klavan. He is so wise but hasn't lost his playfulness.

I've heard AK's testimony probably in 15 different venues (he' s a great guy with a great mind and I've followed his career closely ever since I met him at a writers' conference in 2007), and this by far is the best. Kudos to the videographer/editor. Bang up job. The older I get, the more I realize that Jews are the most gifted people in the world. What a wonderful thing to be chosen twice.

One of my favorite people. Thank you so much. God bless the Jewish people.

I wanted this monologue to last for hours! Thank you Andrew, for sharing your life and your message and Jesus Christ🙏

This is great. I am “playing in pain” right now. I am thankful for this message.

Klavan is an absolute treasure. One of the greatest thinkers of modern times.

This video just saved my life! Praise Yeshua! Praise Jesus! Praise Isus! God bless you Andrew Klavan! This struck me so close to home. You're story is mine, almost exactly, except i was raised in a Romanian Messianic Jewish home with little ties to tradition. Instead I was raised to look at everything intellectually; to focus on truth above everything else, and to criticize those who got something wrong. It lead me to criticise and disregard every pastor/rabbi I ever met who would preach something technically incorrect. I've become very jaded. I too want to be a writer. I've written much throughout my life, mostly poetry and short stories. But I also have bigger projects, like a biography about my father escaping communist Romania, and a novel the likes of JRR Tolkien's mythology and history, but from eastern influences. None of these have panned out though. I've published many works already, and have made next to nothing. Things were made worse when I met a girl through my writing. I fell in love, but was made a fool. The love was one sided, a lie, and despite what I felt, never real. She took advantage of my writing, which I gave freely, and since leaving me, i haven't written anything since. At the same time I've been diagnosed with multiple life long diseases that are progressively getting worse, attacking my functioning, my body, my blood, and even my psyche. I can't help but wonder if these are the reasons I can't find love. Things have been spiraling the past few months. With very little in the way of an immune system I've been getting sick constantly, and it's kept me from interacting with people. I am an extrovert, and I hate being alone, but that's all I do. I've been getting more and more depressed. I've been having suicidal thoughts. I've been contemplating the best way to do it. The only thing keeping me from committing is my little brother, who I see as a son, and who looks up to me with all his heart. Despite this, I've become more withdrawn, and it has affected him negatively, making me hate myself even more. Today is the first day of Chanukkah. For some reason I woke up with Adam Sandler's "Hanukkah Song" in my head, so I went to watch it again. I laughed. It felt good. So I watched some more about Chanukkah. I found a video that this chanel just uploaded a day ago. It was beautiful, describing Yeshua in the light of Chanukkah. I looked through their videos and saw Andrew Klavan. I like him, so I thought I'd give a watch for just a couple minutes. I became planted, and watched the whole thing. "Play in pain" hit me like a ton of bricks. The way God spoke to you without using His Name, El Shaddai, so humble, so subtle, so intimately... I couldn't help but cry. It's as if those same words were for me. I broke down sobbing, and came to write this after I dried my eyes. "Thank you, God!" Amen! Thank you, God! My life hurts. I'm in constant pain. Nothing feels fair. I was arguing with God every day and night. My writing has stopped. My desire is gone. But sometimes you have to play in pain. If he can do it, then I can too. I'm turning around. I'm putting my faith back in Jesus. I'm going to go back to church despite any pain. I'm going to SHOW my faith in Him, and not just keep it bottled inside. Thank you, God! Bless Andrew Klavan and Chosen People Ministries!

crap i’m tearing up in public. God bless you, sir.

What an awesome God we have!

May God protect you brother Andrew gives you wisdom in the knowledge of Christ🙏🙏

I've been watching Klavan weekly for years now and never knew his conversion story. So beautiful!

I love this testimony and I have listened to it twice in the past few months. I’ve been feeling so depressed in a spiritual battle I’ve been facing as a Christian, but I feel a renewed sense of hope coming back into my life and spirit. Thank you, Andrew.

His story reminds me of the Book of Esther. God is all around and in and through it, working for good, but his name is never mentioned... 🙏

Thank you, God for this man’s testimony.

I lost my faith along time ago, can't seem to get it back. Klavan is an inspiration for that possibility for me. He is my favorite at Daily Wire

Sometimes you have to play in pain. I think alot of us feel that way. But remember “the joy of the Lord is your strength” Beautiful testimony. God bless the Jewish people, for salvation is of the Jews. Our Messiah is Jewish❤

Wow. In tears. God is so good and I'm so glad you're here friend ♥️

Praise Jesus Christ!

Absolutely incredible. What really strikes me is what always struck me about my dad's testimony, that single moment of, "suddenly, something was different."

You always make our lives just a little better.

The Covid lock downs gave me the opportunity to surf RU-vid more thoroughly. I came across Andrew Klavan and so many others including One for Israel. For that I am grateful. Chosen People ministries is new to me. I’ll subscribe.

Thank you Andrew, your testimony has given me affirmation for my journey, shalom

Mine too. He got me out of Chicago, NYC, Hollywood and through Desert Strom! I can't say exactly what for except that l came to realize his love for me has no bounds and I've been humbled. I pray everyone has a similar experience.

Thank you for this. I stopped crocheting to write down "sometimes you gotta play in pain" because through your story those words sparked something in me also.

It is difficult to find our true selves, and afterward, it is difficult to remain true to ourselves. Andrew Klavan strikes me as a man who was honest in looking for his true self and manages to remain honest.

May the Lord less you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.

Well, Klavan, you've done it...officially you've made me laugh and cry! God's got our backs-Bless you for sharing (i don't think I've ever needed to hear something so badly)! Thank you Carter, Mr. Mets 🙏

So very powerful… thank you for sharing your personal story …

Thank you for your testimony, Andrew. Jesus saved me too. God bless

It's so cool that his Jewish identity became most real in his baptism into the Jewish Messiah! This video got my tears flowing, too!

Andrew, I don't know how you held it together. Thank you for being you. Thank you for sharing.

Really needed this right now. Thank you.

❤️❤️❤️❤️Mr. Klavan, Love you! you are a man and a brother in Christ

God bless you Andrew Klavan. I've listened to you now for many years and was privileged to meet you once at a speaking event. You're speaking truth to an audience and a world that need it desperately. Bless you. Thank you. Save the Klavan.

I'm such a fan of Andrew. And now, I'm an even bigger fan of Jews. I've never had a single issue with a people who share the same values of faith, family and honor. The fact that this channel would give Andrew a platform to talk about switching religions is a testament to the good intentions of the Jewish community writ large! People that are wrong hide things like this. They censor things like this. And they shame things like this. Y'all are celebrating this man and his decision, and that shines a magnificent light on you! Andrew is a treasure and I'm so thankful for any opportunity he gets to show his humanity. Thank you all for sharing him!! May the most blessed tidings be upon all the Jewish people!

It is amazing and so wonderful when God acts in that way.

I know now why I can’t feel that connection to life like I so desperately crave. I’m not connecting with God. Thanks Andrew very well said and it touched my heart more than you’ll know

God bless his souls and his family, Amen

Wonderful testimony brother Andrew

Such an amazing testimony . Thank you, I needed to hear this. Shalom Mr Klavan

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I often tell people that I just don’t have the ego integrity to be an atheist. I think most of them think that I have never wrestled with my faith. What I really mean is that I have wrestled with the despair of my own insignificance so deeply. For so long. That it’s a miracle I’m still alive and I’m so grateful God delivered me from my pain. I was a functioning madman for decades. Literally staying alive out of nothing more than a sense of responsibility to keep those I loved from any pain they might feel by my passing. Even though I believed they would be better off without me. It wasn’t until I fully accepted the reality of God that my chains were laid down. God has blessed you Andrew. I pray that he bless you more. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your story.

Beautiful

GLORY BE TO GOD

I love you Andrew klavan! Thank you for this powerful message. You are so inspiring!

Wonderful Testimony! ... yes sir you got it OR should I say you GOT HIM & He GOT YOU! ... Praise the Lord.

Amazing and inspiring story. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, Andrew.

That was so nice. Loved listening.

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.

Andrew thank you for sharing your situation. We have been learning about all the lies garbage and bullshit that we were taught in our life. I feel blessed because of all the things learned in the past couple years. I appreciate your videos because I always speak with a genuine honest heart. The truth does truly set us free.

Thank you for the good words. The Lord giveth songs in the night...Jesus shows us the Father. It all makes sense if you let it.

You can't know God directly, He is just too big for the mind, unless you know Him through Christ 💙 Beautiful

You helped change me so God has gotten us both. My God bless you and yours.

Phenomenal story. Thank you

Thank you for sharing your testimony and for all the work you do.

Amen brother!What a wonderful testimony!Our God is great!

This had me engaged from the beginning, what a story, what a journey. God truly is amazing the way he reaches out to us but also let’s us learn and explore on our own

Dear Andrew, thank you always for your sound truth, faith and words. You help people more then you will ever know.

Thank you Lord. This is truly amazing and impactful. Thank you Andrew. God has certainly spoken through you here.

I’ve watched this several times. He’s a very well spoken man. That was so compelling, I can’t imagine who would not be moved by it.

so good. thank you, Klavan. just watched a second time because this is that moving

Mr. Klaven's comments on the humility and Grace of God is a powerful reminder of the kindness and patience of God. It seems it's always moving to see and hear someone who is moved by that which was so important to us. To me. "Until I was baptized, I don't think I was a Jew." What a statement. Of course, he doesn't speak of the act, he speaks of the decision - the surrender - that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob has called him to embrace the faith of the Patriarchs in its fulness in Messiah Yeshua. Amazing.

Can relate to it..Hits hard..Greetings from Germany..

Because he speaks of Jesus, Andrew is my favorite of the daily wire cast❤

This had me tearing up. PtL!❤

Nice. Peace and blessings to you Andrew, in the name of Jesus.

Impressive! Thank you!

What an incredible story of rebirth. Thank you so much for sharing this.

This is so beautiful. My core felt it and I have a real need to talk to God now. Thanks Andrew.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing Andrew. Love the daily wire backstages and i cant get enough of ya'll

This was much needed frfr ❤️🙏🏽

Thank you for sharing that. God is great. God bless you and your family and friends. Duane.

🥲❤️ We love you, Drew!

God bless you! This realization is my hope for everyone.

Many of the best and relevant authors are crazy and unravelling!

CHRIST IS KING!

Brilliant and inspiring

Thank you Thank you THANK YOU FOR SHARING ❤🕊️🥰

I love how real he is. I wish pastors spoke as honestly as this guy does.

This is your best testimony, because it’s a decent length. The others are good, but ridiculously short. These Jewish Christians are the best testimonies ever, please post the long unedited version, luv them 🇮🇱🕎✝️✡️

Wow, beautiful story, Andrew Klavan with no "e" in your last name! Like you, I found out that God is good, God is real RIGHT NOW, and He is life itself!

Amazing testimony! Love Andrew and read all of his articles.

Wow… praise the Almighty! May He continue using you to bring others to Yeshua HaMashiach, our Lord & Savior.

I can only imagine the conversations between Andrew Klavan and Ben Shapiro at the Daily Wire. Pray for Ben!

So engaging! Bless you sir! 🙏

He is such an amazing inspiration to me.

I identify so much with your testimony. Especially the part about finally being able to see clearly. It's like a fog lifting. God is good! Thank you for sharing. 🙌🤲

What a beautiful testimony

Thanks for reminding me. Attitude of gratitude. Seems like sometimes I forget. Good to keep the door open a crack on the past.

So beautiful.

Magnificent testimony. Funny, I always saw this man on the team of Daily Wire. Never really cared. I found him through my new found love and interest in literature. Christ I thank, we find God in our lowest moments sometimes. But I feel we can never truly meet him until we find Jesus.

Thank you for sharing this😊
