This really hit home, I was in 2nd grade and my teacher told my parents that I was the r word, and I was never going to be able to learn, basically told me I was a garbage and I'd never end up being anything. For a longtime I believed it and covered up my issues with drinking. Thank God I found Christ and now understand we are all sinners.

We are special to God

@991JOYFM Год назад

Wow. Thank you for your openness. The heart of this series is to let everyone know they are NOT alone. As another commenter said here, YOU are special to God.

That's unbelievable how cruel adults make kids feel and not understand how hurtful their words are or don't care.

@ladyj5682 Год назад

If funny how we are so good at hiding and masking in Christianity when all of us are seeking freedom. We cant even be free at churches bc is God really running them or He is there but outside looking in bc moast of us dont want to or dont know how to address our issues

I was also diagnosed in second grade in the 70’s with dyslexia. I am now learning that add, dyslexia, bipolar disorder and even addiction are all linked to trauma as a child. Sometimes physical sometimes emotional or both. I learned to be hyper vigilant at home to feel a sense of safety and stability. Tried to stay ahead of things and preemptively fix it. Then I took that instinct with me wherever I went as a coping skill in life. When you are hyper vigilant you cannot absorb certain information around you especially in a traditional school setting. I excelled in friendships and helping others and that was very fulfilling for me although it lead to problems with people pleasing issues. Not until I had four kids of my own.. one of which is very much like me did I finally start to stand up and search for information that would help him and that has helped me as well. I struggle with my faith in God a lot but somehow and at what seems like the last minute or 10 minutes after the last minute God comes through with something I could have never done myself as hard as I try. I have a small tattoo that says Let Go to physically remind me to stop trying to control everything and trust that God can do a better job than me to “fix” things than me.😌

I grew up thinking i was nothing. My family had always pushed me to the side, and one day, I asked my mother if i was a mistake, and she said yes. I'll never forget that day, but praise God, i found Jesus and found my worth in His shed blood.

April 7, 2005, I met the entire Casting Crowns Fam. I introduced myself & Said, “I’ve been the one emailing you!!” Mark replied w.”Hey Nathan!! How ya doin’ Buddy?!” Luv this Man!!

@CountryBird Год назад

Thanks so much for sharing this incredible interview because one would have never guessed that Mark struggled in these areas. Some hurts may never be fully resolved in our lifetimes, but remembering what God says about us and having a real relationship with Jesus does help us rise above them. God Bless Mark Hall and Casting Crowns for drawing our hearts closer to God through their music and words.

@amandaknutson1319 Год назад

So he mentions at 19, his life got really dark. Well, my oldest son had a life that’s incredibly similar to Mark’s. He’s 19 as of this year, and he believes his life couldn’t be worse. But he’s growing his faith in Christ as we speak. I have faith that life will get better for him, and the Good Lord will provide for him, as he has been.

I have Adhd & autistic to the world. To God I'm his child made in his image. I was really struggling as I know Jesus wants me to worship him in spirit & in truth. I was ready to give up & the holy spirit told me to listen to Mark Hall's testimony. I now know why. Glory to God

Man, is there an extended version of this interview? Felt like he was just getting into the deep stuff. I appreciate what was there tho!

@ladyj5682 Год назад

Wow, glad he was honest bc this is where we heal. This makes sense why his music feels so real and touches yiur heart. Glad you didn't give up!!!! It's interesting how we gravite to the negative more than any positive. All those people paid for a ticket if they didn't want to be there guess what they wouldn't have come. We need to keep in mind that we dont know what people are going through and sometimes reacting to their own life not ours

@alexandersasha1423 Год назад

This was so amazing! Thank you so much. I needed to hear this. My brain likes to say to me that I don’t matter in so many ways. And my ocd just makes it worse. I’m not alone though. I also have a learning disability. I’m from St. Petersburg Russia and me and my brother were adopted into an amazing family here in the USA. I can only think of God giving me that miracle and blessing. From being in a bad place in an orphanage in Russia to a brand new life where I have parents and family and friends who love me now. I pray that one day I can understand Gods love for me and believe that I’m enough. I feel like I see these videos at times and I still don’t get it. Even though they are awesome. I pray one day I will understand.

@991JOYFM Год назад

We pray that God continues to encourage your heart and give you reminders of how much He loves you!

@wennemalino9013 Год назад

In order to understand, you need to experience it. In order to experience it, there are 2 things i suggest you to do: ask God to do it in you, & speak the truth about yourself although your brain tells you different thing. I've been in your place, and i'm free now, thank God everyday for this incredible inner freedom to appreciate & love myself so i'm made able to appreciate & love others!

@franksam6818 Месяц назад

Don't make it more difficult than it really is. It's about True Love, The Only True Love there is, & that's through Jesus Christ. As it's also reflected & given by others, who know The Almightys Powerful Love. You are & have Always been Loved. 🙏❤️

@lmonje Год назад

Thank you guys, this was eye-opening. I struggle with perfectionism with schoolwork in college, and just knowing that it's normal for the lies to still be there even as a believer was comforting, knowing that God can still work with where I'm at.

@SandyA-q8g 3 месяца назад

Amein, thank you for the testimony and encouraging message. The enemy seeks to twist, distort and distract us from the truth. He seeks to cause us to look like and do things of the nations. But we are to not be conformed to their ways. GOD has always commanded His people to be guardians of His Word. It "is life".

Mark and anyone else that might be reading this, I have some friends in Pakistan and a few countries in Africa that are Christians, in desperate need, I don't know where to look for help for them. I'll lead you to them and you can check them out to make sure they are real. Or if you have any suggestions on where I can look for help for them??? I truly don't know where to look??? If you can help??? Thank you in advance, God bless, always in my prayers ☝️🤲❤️

@LeonKaweesa 5 месяцев назад

I inlike manner, I was like that fearing even when I've done nothing and being interested in other people's opinions. Now I'm being forced into baptism in the Adventists and it's really hitting hard. But Iike Mark I pray that utterance is even me because as Luther said in 1517 sola fide and sola scriptora. Salvation by Faith alone in Christ and infallibility of scripture. I don't have to do anything to fill complete neither by pleasing anymore nor feel worthy through works but rather let Christ have dominance over every matter of my life . Please pray for me. Praise God 🙏🙏🙏

I wasn't diagnosed with OCD because of my self-confidence issue. In an environment of blaming myself and hating myself, I do not understand what is not within my control. Deciphering lies from The Enemy is important.

@barbarabrooks2925 9 месяцев назад

As a child I really struggled with self esteem with ear problems and it was more than just hearing loss because of narrow ear canals I couldn’t get water in my ears I was told, if I did , I got an ear infection. I had a lot of infections, many doctor visits as a result. With runny ears, pus and blood got into my hair which was not pleasant. I felt no one would ever want me. I knew God from childhood and felt he was with me. Still struggled with letting people too close to me, when I did let them close, I’d have to suddenly excuse myself and leave. I cannot finish this as it brings back so much emotions that still hurt. Your right, going through, I thought I was the only one.😢. Older and hopefully wiser now.❤

@christinedahlgren5877 Год назад

I grew up believing that I was not enough, but it was for a different reason. God is good. I learned the truth. I have no doubt that the biggest reason Mark works so well with teens is because of the dark places he had been. God takes the painful parts of our past (if we give them) and makes beauty from them.
