Thank you so much Bracken and Linsey. Bracken I saw your testimony. It was so good I want you and Linsey to know your music has been a staple in my walk with Jesus. I came to be a believer in 2016. My Saul experience was to amazing and since I’ve set myself apart. It has been difficult but the Lord He is so good and I find such peace now. I wasn’t raised in any church so no background. So when i kept reading and studying the Bible it dawned on me many Christians have probably never read the Bible for themselves. Jesus words will change you He is amazing. I believe you all and your music have been a blessing to many who are walking from their slumbers. God bless you both for your service for the Kingdom. Hallelujah

I thank God you came to faith in Jesus 19 years ago. Oh, my name is Greg. I am learning Russian, but also want to learn Chinese and Korean. My ancestry is Ukraine, Poland, Hungarian, Israel(Hebrew). You are a beautiful person in Jesus. Have you heard of the heavenly man, brother Yun? Have you heard of Paul Hattaway books called "China Chronicles?" Please excuse this English version -- "Knee-how" and "shishen." Lord bless, keep, and protect and strengthen you and your family.

PRAYER for PROTECTION and PRESERVATION in Times of War, Inflation, and Uncertainties. The Victory in The Blood of Jesus Christ is The Only Total and True Victory available for mankind from God in this earthly pilgrimage. Whoever Inherits This Very Victory in The Very Blood of Jesus Christ, will be in Divine safety and in God's Victory in the seasons and paths to come. This is The Good News of Christianity about the Wholesome Power and Victory Available in The Blood of Eternal Covenant of God. Blood of Jesus is The Life of Jesus. This Blood is Available Today in Covenant for anyone in a Daily Prayer Relationship Life with God. Even Abel's Blood is Crying till Today after many millenniums. (Hebrews 12:24) The Very Victory in The Merciful Blood of Jesus, Speaks God's Mercy, Protection, Covering and Guidance for the child; that will inherit It's Paradise Power through the Daily Prayer Cry. Yes, Cry to The Lord All Day with Sincere Thirst and Hunger for The High Priest to Sprinkle The Blood of The Covenant on your spirit, soul, body and your family; and all things in your life, for His keeping. Would you Thirst to Thirst for This Need? You can be a priest before The High Priest and Request This Mercy for your family too. (Like in Job Chapter 1) This is The Very real Need for any one of us. There is no greater Honor and Protection for a child than For God's Blood To Be Sprinkled (1 Peter 1:2) on Them Continually and Ongoing, through a Prayer Relationship. Those who have Full Clinging Faith on Jesus Christ and His Blood Alone, as being all-sufficient, Daily Medicine for Spirit, Soul, Body; will inherit This Victory in The Blood's Merit and Power, as Gifted from God, to the Thirst-filled, persistent child; who Prays on The Merit of This Power , Daily and often. Those Who Inherit The Power in The Those Words "THERE IS ABSOLUTE VICTORY IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST" Will Surely Walk in God's Victory. Divine Protection Will Happen for them. This Word Is Coming from God's Tender Heart Right Now. It is The Heart of God that People Thirst to Thirst and Long for His Blood Daily and All Day. Is He Getting His Thirst Filled? Won't the Child ask the Lord Jesus, What is His Thirst and what will be pleasing for Him to see in our daily walk. God is Faithful and talks Plainly, on The Highest value of respect and Adoration, Due for His Living Blood. Yes, we ought to Thirst for His Blood Daily, as The Highest Regard of our Life (John 6:53-55) "This Power is In The Living Blood of Jesus and is Available in a Daily Prayer Cry for The Child. This Power Remains The Mercifully provided Paradise Wellspring of Divine Healing Protection Balm for any nation (family, church etc.) or anyone who humbles themselves to The Source of All Blessing, Protection, and Preservation; ALL through His Holy Blood, She'd for our Total Redemption... As a Heavenly Father, Who Paid such a High Price. He delights When we Thirst for His Provision of The Blood of Jesus. In this way Keeping His Eternal Blood Covenant, in Every thought and need of our Days." God's Whole Desire is for homes in all nations (individuals, families) to Cry, The Battle Cry: VICTORY IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS ____for Daily Blessing, Preservation of their spirit, soul, body; for The resounding Thanksgiving to God. This alone Will Surely Bring Glory to The Blood of Jesus, as The Lord Expects it. This is our only medicine: which is provided to us, only through a contrite prayer union. God Will be Glorified in Those Thirst-filled Children. God Will Preserve them in the day of Dangers. Victory in The Blood of Jesus Christ is The Trumpet Cry that Will Break the Jericho Wall (Joshua 6). Surely nations, families, and individuals run into Jericho Walls; hence this Holy Battle Cry has to go across all homes in all nations. When The Cry for Victory in The Blood of Jesus Christ rises up in a home, God’s Light Will Come in and darkness depart; and True Protection Happens for God’s Glory, because this home now has a continuous, and daily Thanksgiving Testimony ; for the Holy Power and Care of God, Provisioned for them, through The Victory in The Blood of Jesus Christ (Rev 12:11) The Power of This Totally contrite and sincere plea; through the Words "Victory in Blood of Jesus Christ" Will Protect each Soul and That is True Protection. May this Truth of The Lamb of God, Root in each one of us. When One, Holds On To This Eternal Remedy of God; all Fear Will have to go away and The Very Victory of God placed in the midst of us, in and Through the Mercy of The Blood of God. This is The Surety of God's Own Anchor for The Child; Who Adores and Hides in The Blood of Jesus Daily. For Those, With a prayer heartbeat similar to the exposition provided above, which pleases the God Of All Righteousness beyond measure; Our Triune God Will Place and command, The Refuge and Support of His Blood's Protection, to Enter into their lives and Cover them, with His Favor. Biblically, ftom God's Heart Perspective , This Grace Gift of the Divine Shelter is attainable and available to any with Thirst to God as in Isaiah 44:3. These Children Cherish and Hide in The Blood of Jesus, with a Deep Respect to their God. This indeed is True Faith That Moves God. In The Bible, God Rewards Himself and All of His Treasures to a child; who expresses Total and sincere Faith to Him. May The Good news of the Lord Spread All Across the lands to any suffering nation, family, or individual and especially in Ukraine. Even right now there is a bible being written about all of us, through Angels. Should that Surprise us? Both God and Heaven are interested in God's Kingdom; all the while Transforming and protecting those who entered The Refuge of God's Blood. There Testimonies will be recounted on the Judgment Day for God's Delight. Let’s Run to This Eternal Mercy of God. May those testimonies "about individuals and families who have come into the wholesome protection of His Blood, which neither them nor the world can provide" cherish His Heart. Will you be found living and basking in This Free Grace Available for anyone? Let's be in Awe of our Creator and fall at His Feet in Contriteness and in Thanksgiving, Hiding in His Safety, in and Through His Holy Blood!!

This was so encouraging to hear first hand from someone who has left that lifestyle to follow Jesus. Perhaps God will give me opportunity to share Christ with an Amish person. Whatever be His will, may we serve Him as a light in the darkness.

Have you found the Sabbath truth?

When they said they were encouraged to read their bibles only on Sunday, that resonated with my Catholic upbringing. When I started going to a church where the Bible was taught verse-by-verse, I couldn’t get enough of the Word. I’d read further at home and was told that the church taught it was dangerous to do so because we would misinterpret scripture. That it needed to be read and explained by a priest. If a place of worship discourages the reading of God’s Word, see that as a red flag. Get out and seek the God of the Bible, not the god of the pulpit.

I had the very same experience with my church which said they were nondenominatial . They had small home groups for what they called bible study, but the materials they were handing out were not bibles, they were the variety one would find in a "christian bookstore" by people were famous for books they had written. After maybe 5 of these so called bible "studies" we realized wait a minute, we are not studying the word of God, we are studying self help fluff written by mere men and women. So, we told our church (there were about 15 in our small group) that we were going to study complete books of the bible including old testament prophets and writings as well as New Testament including Revelation. They told us we were "rogue" and that we were causing division and that we should stop. We did not stop, instead we left that church , many went to old school Calvary Chapels as we all desired to study the word both Old and New book by book, chapter by chapter, line by line. I still all these years later only study with teachers that approach the bible that way. My first Pastor that I found online was Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills CA, and from there I have now ten or more old school Calvary Pastors that I study with online. I have not found a church where I moved to that operates only from the bible, so I have not been to a church now for almost 9 years. I miss the fellowship greatly, but with the Covid thing and the fact that we had cancer treatments going on and we are not young, I wanted to go out publicly as little as possible and I still have no desire to go out even if they were a bible teaching only church near.

Hi there friends my story is similar, I am 68 years old oldest of 4 children born Jewish and Bar Mitzvah, however at 14yrs old I was fortunate to have a friend also born Jewish who had found the Lord and witnessed Him to me. I knew it would be difficult for my family to accept however I desperately wanted them to know the love and joy that I had found in Christ and to fully know our God. They did not see it the same way. Two years later at age 16 they kicked me out of their home telling me I was dead and no longer had any parents brothers and sister or family. This was not what I wanted however I had no choice any that day forced from home I left with almost nothing to follow the true Messiah, my Lord and Savior learn the scriptures. I had to leave school and get a job , and that summer became a missionary lasting 3 years in N Dakota and Idaho (USA) It has been 54 years now and I continue to walk in and manifest the Spirit, learn and teach the scriptures applying them daily in my life. Iv had many things happen but in all things God always provided never let me down. My own sister and recently her son eventually found the Lord as well. Iv heard aunts and cousins iv prayed for all these years have alsocome to the Lord which I am so thankful for along with many iv witnessed to as Christ's Ambassador. I want to encourage you to continue learning and growing in your believing and studying God's rightly divided Word with others you meet along the way. There is much joy in Christ, His Father God and manifesting Holy Spirit. Our God is so good! Bless your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus! Thank you for sharing your story on KZread. 🙏🫶🙌👍💞

You made a hard decision to leave but you were right. Any religion that says that you must subvert your life to any earthly “ pope, prophet, president, elder is misleading you. The Bible which, if you research it, there are a huge amount of manuscripts that are virtually the same as the original Greek and Hebrew. When tradition, or leadership become more important than the Bible you know you are in trouble. Jesus is the ONLY intercessor or priest that you need. Keep reading your bible, then you will recognize when someone is misleading you.

I am very happy for this couple I live among many Mennonites, there are not many Amish here. But the Mennonites live a very similar life. I always wondered what their message was to share with the world about Jesus. You do not join their Church. They live a very private and hard life. I attended one wedding, it was strange with very little happiness and not too much happiness. I am thankful that this young couple has found Jesus : they are not in bondage anymore

My favorite part was when you talked about "Stepping Stones" I pictured grey stones and taking a step by step. I became a Christian at 19. Now in my 50's I can see the "black and white". I was raised Catholic and I thought the bible was a fairytail. We weren't encouraged to read the bible and I didn't know it. I was so hungry for God at 19 that I was going to Mass several times a week. I knew something was missing but didn't know what. It was Jesus and that He died on the cross for my sins and rose again. I met my husband at that time and he was from a faith that read the bible and believed what it said even speaking in tounges. So I started reading the bible and found out the truth. That I was lied to by the Catholic church. These are some of the example I realized: You don't have to go to a priest to confess your sins. It doesn't say that at all. I didn't know that the Hail Mary Prayer we were taught to pray wasn't in the bible. The rosary wasn't in the bible. When I realized I was going to leave the Catholic church and go to my boyfriends church (Now my husbands) I remember my aunt being Catholic getting upset. She didn't even go to church. I realize that's my story is nothing compared to what you went through. That just made me feel like I can relate to you on some level. I know following Jesus path for you won't always make people happy with your decisions. Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. Praying for you and God's direction for your life.

The Rosary is a meditation on the life of Christ. It’s extremely Biblical. I’m glad you developed a personal relationship with Jesus, and that you got into the habit of reading your Bible, but there’s no reason why you couldn’t have done those things and remained a Catholic. Also, Sola Scriptura is nowhere in the Bible. No Christian before the 16th century believed in Bible alone. Critics of the Catholic Church will often say we follow the traditions of men, but our Church has direct continuity to the Apostles. Meanwhile, Protestants deny what Christians believed for 15 centuries in order to follow the dogmas of a few Europeans, ignoring entire passages of Scripture like John 6 where our Blessed Lord teaches that the bread is literally and not symbolically His body. It’s so important to receive the Eucharist that Jesus says: “Whoever does not eat my flesh and drink my blood has no life in them” For that reason alone, I could never be a Protestant. Somebody should have explained these things to you before you left the Apostolic Church founded by Christ. I’m hardly an expert and I was able to address every point you raised of the top of my head. Therefore you do raise a valid point; a lot of Catholics are not able to defend their Faith, especially in the West. Thats simply because they’re not committed, and the Church has failed to properly catechise, something we’re much better at doing in the internet age. Either way, leaving the Church was never the answer. I’ll be praying the Rosary for your reversion to the fullness of the Christian faith, handed down by the Apostles. God bless you and you’re family. You do seem sincere but it breaks my heart no end to see people leave Jesus’ Church over simple misconceptions.

@@sajansuganth8967Daniel 7:25, He …. shall intend to change times and laws. The Papacy clearly admits changing the Sabbath from Saturday , the seventh day of the week, to Sunday, the first day of the week, and declares the change to be an act of her ecclesiastical authority. The Catholic Church for over one thousand years before the existence of a Protestant, by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday. _ Catholic Mirror, Sept 1893. You are a Protestant, and profess to go by the Bible only; and yet you go against the plain letter of the Bible, and put another day in the place of the Sabbath. The command to keep holy the seventh day is one of the Ten Commandments; who gave you the authority to tamper with the fourth?”- Library of Christian Doctrine, page 3. But you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday, The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we never sanctify. -Gibson’s Faith of our Fathers, page 111. The Observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the Catholic Church. - Plain Talk About Protestantism, by Father Segur, page 213.

What an amazing testimony, this verse comes to mind. "If you come to me but will not leave your family, you cannot be my follower. You must love me more than your father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters-even more than your own life! Whoever will not carry the cross that is given to them when they follow me cannot be my follower." Luke 14:26-27 I can't imagine how hard that must have been to leave your family and everything you have ever known to follow Christ. May he continue to bless you on your journey and in your ministry.

For school training I got to stay in an Old Order Mennonite's home my first year of 2 weeks training and in the second year I stayed in an Amish home. I am thankful for the experience with them. Such hardworking people. I truly believe that some were truly followers of Christ, while others were followers of tradition and legalism. I could teach the Bible to them each morning, pray for them and with them for morning devotions, but had to agree not to give them an invitation to invite Christ into their life. I agreed to do that, but I did teach them the Gospel, told them how to invite Christ into their life and that they could invite Christ to forgive them of their sins at any age and from any place, while in bed or in the barn; but I did not lead them to accept Christ as their personal Saviour. I did tell them my testimony of giving my life to Christ as a wee child and rededicated my life to Christ as a young teen and was baptized as an older teen.

Happy Sabbath and thank you for sharing your testimony. I would like to encourage you to evangelise the city, but live in your country home. Here is a quote in support of this. temptation.9 AH 137.1 Cities Offer No Real Benefit-There is not one family in a hundred who will be improved physically, mentally, or spiritually by residing in the city. Faith, hope, love, happiness, can far better be gained in retired places, where there are fields and hills and trees. Take your children away from the sights and sounds of the city, away from the rattle and din of streetcars and teams, and their minds will become more healthy. It will be found easier to bring home to their hearts the truth of the word of God.10 AH 137.2 Counsel on Moving From Rural to City Areas-Many parents remove from their country homes to the city, regarding it as a more desirable or profitable location. But by making this change, they expose their children to many and great temptations. The boys have no employment, and they obtain a street education and go on from one step in depravity to another, until they lose all interest in anything that is good and pure and holy. How much better had the parents remained with their families in the country, where the influences are most favorable for physical and mental strength. Let the youth be taught to labor in tilling the soil, and let them sleep the sweet sleep of weariness and innocence. AH 137.3

What an encouraging interview! I love hearing what the Amish believe. Now i know how to pray for them. I have always loved their simple lifestyle and their connections to each other.

My family is Pennsylvania Dutch from Berks county. My grandfather owned an apple orchard in New Jerusalem. My dad was Mennonite and my mom was Lutheran, where once a month the service was in high German. When my mom was in her 30s, they attended a Presbyterian church in Philadelphia, and were both saved. They eventually moved to Florida where I grew up. They're with Savior now. I'm so grateful for their faith, how they taught me from a young child...God is faithful! Such a great interview! Thank you!

This is one of the sweetest testimonies and discipleship stories I've heard in years! What tender hearts they have for Jesus and truth! I was saved 30 years ago out of another syncretist culture that I'd thought was Christian and was also blessed early on with a hunger for the Scriptures and simple faith to just take the next step.

This testimony has really blessed me today. It seems very similar to what I hear about Jewish people finding out that Jesus IS their messiah. The same kinds of struggles and losses. Yet, God makes a way for us all to deal with the aftermath of coming to accept the free gift of being made clean in God's sight through Jesus. So glad your families found their way to Him!!

jesus christ of lds, is not the truth, the way and the life, JESHUA IS respectfully research the roots of LDS, AND THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE, IN HIS EVERLASTING LOVE [ JESUS IS NOT THE DEVIL'S BROTHER OR AN ANGEL, JESUS IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD may His peace and His holy spirit lead you to true freedom.[ respectfully i tell you this]

I agree! I praise the Lord Jesus that His light has been birthed in you both. Your story made me cry. May you -all in your family continue to walk in His ways and know and cherish His presence in your lives. I pray your parents and siblings and old friends will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior too!

Isn’t it amazing how he is in a church wanting to talk about Jesus and they turn away? So much like Jesus in the temple right? I really want to hear more about this. The world has the idea that the Amish are Christian.born again not so much. I would like to learn just what exactly do the Amish teach about their faith. Is it the Bible or is it just the god of Amishess? So glad Jesus has come to you and changed your hearts for eternity. Hallelujah. Amen.

From someone who grew up in an old order Amish home, a lot of the old order unfortunately are more about the rules and being Amish than following Christ. They teach being a good person but it’s more being good on your own rather than being saved and letting Jesus live in you.

Praise the Lord! What a wonderful testimony!! I feel like even people outside of Amish can idolize them and think they have it better, when in fact everyone equally needs Jesus and to choose Him personally!

I was raised catholic, and I'm struck by how similar the Amish religion/tradition and Catholic religion/ tradition really is. I also had these questions about why bible reading and study wasnt encouraged, and it finally hit me, it was all about keeping people in the "religion". Maybe other catholics have a different experience, but i never really knew Jesus, and I certainly wasnt lead to salvation. When I walked into my little Baptist church, I finally found Him. I Praise Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior!

I’m so proud of this couple that they pursued Jesus Christ and they now live for the Lord. And now they know the truth..Praise God .You are now in the family of God. I love you both.

“Jesus renewed my mind” instant Holy Spirit chills. God is so good! Wow thank you Jesus! Prayers this reaches so many even in your community.

Why are people acting like Amish aren't Christian? They have a higher percentage of Christians than any other group in America besides Mennonites and Mormons, and actually dedicate their entire life to Jesus, unlike 99% of American Christians.

What if they are right and you are wrong? What if you should of been listening instead of speaking the entire time?

Knowing you are on your way to heaven. God's grace is sufficient.

I LOVE your testimony. God pulls His remnant out of everywhere. Every religion, every nation. Every lifestyle. I was Catholic. When I decided to make Jesus my Lord, I was ‘shunned’, as well. We call it disowned. I was 18. I’m 52 now. It was a hard road being alone, but the older I get the more I realize Jesus is worth it!

This is a great reminder of how God calls His people to himself, in his time. Thank you for this interview. I truly enjoyed it. ✝️💟

I always thought the Amish were all Christians, so very eye-opening interview with this couple! Thank you for all of this information about the struggles of this former Amish couple's struggle with their separation at first from their community socially.

@RichMizenko I just have to remember that God sent His Son to die for the sinner, and that means everyone, whether they believe in Jesus as their Savior or not! People like Paul the Apostle are still sinners and continued to sin even after they believed in Christ's blood atonement for their sins. So the only One who is able to live a perfect life was Jesus and this is what qualified Him to be able to be the sacrifice for all of mankind's sins as it had to be a PERFECT sacrifice, without sin. He took the place of everyone who chooses to believe He died to give them this free gift of salvation. Their future sins may disappoint God, but they won't lose their salvation as once they believe in what Jesus did for them they are sealed by the Holy Spirit so that they are still saved per Ephesians 4:30. They may lose rewards if they habitually sin but their salvation is intact.

I live around Hutterites also antibaptist sect. They believe that the communal living is the most important. It’s ok to steal or cheat anyone that isn’t a Hutterite. We had reformed Hutterites in our church. They try to bring the word of God to their people.

I can see the love that the two of you have for each other. Not only do you love Jesus, but you love one another! Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for being obedient and sharing this testimony. I was raised in the church, with church people but when the Lord called me to a closer walk, and to actually apply God's Word to my life, some family and friends fell away. Initially, it was very sad, but then Jesus surrounded my family with new families in the faith who also desire to have an authentic walk with the Lord. Jesus, is so real. 🔥 Thank you and God bless❤

I can tell that the wife from the ex Amish couple is following the leadership of her husband in this whole process and her husband is growing deeper in his relationship with God❤ love that for him and I pray for both the wife and myself because we both seem to be struggling similarly. Praise God for renewal of minds in Jesus Christ.

There are alot of christian churches that are practicing feminism and calling it biblical. They don't follow the bible as far as headship of the home goes. Its 50 50 100 100 Ive heard all this drivel. The bible is clear the man makes the final decision based on weighing the facts that he and his wife, both talking about it and the husband basing his decisions, taking into account her being the weaker vessel and making sure it is not hurting her. There are times if it is gods will that both have to take pain when doing something but god never gives us more than we can handle per his word. Gods kingdom is all about authority. Note Miriam being punished for scolding Moses. God rightfully said she was rebelling against him when she rebelled against Moses. People don't seem to understand this today.

What a blessing to hear that y’all have your life to Jesus Christ! Jesus is amazing! He shows us everything we need everyday! Let’s praise Him together! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏

Jesus sets the Captive free. So Happy for them I have been praying for Amish and Mormon be born again.

Raised Catholic, now Christian in a Baptist denomination. My faith journey sounds much like theirs!

It was such a blessing to hear this testimony! So many things resonated- as young(non amish) christians my husband and I were approached by Beachy Mennonites. They seemed very serious about God, and had similar views as Amish. After we joined their church, we realized like you said- people would get uncomfortable talking after the service about Jesus or even the message. It was always the weather or gardening and I was a city girl😂They were so moral that leaving made us feel guilty but we were so hungry to talk about Jesus we left. I am deeply blessed to hear how Jesus led you step by step into His Arms, praise the Lord!

Thank you so much for sharing this story! In May my family went on vacation and visited Amish Country in PA. We did a private buggy ride with the most authentic business we could find and talked to the lady for over 2 hours. I could see a lot of what was discussed on this video in her but couldn’t pinpoint all of it at the time. This was really eye opening. We talk about that trip and the lady often in our family. She seemed to be on the fence. I will be praying more directly for her now with a better understanding. Thanks! I always enjoy your videos and music! Thanks for being a shining light in a dark world!

🙏🏼Always prioritise the Bible. Even a biblestudy book can veer off of the complete Word of God. Whatever else we read, the Bible and it's truth always comes first. Other books, words, can easily obliterate the Way, the Truth, and the Life, if we allow it. Prayer and Bible reading should be first and most important in our lives. Praise the LORD for the Holy Spirit guiding us moment by moment. We should be obedient, not rebellious. P.T.L. Praise the Lord!!!

"If the Holy Spirit is at work the fruits will come out" Amen, so good!!! The word says you'll know them by their fruits.

I am so amazed by the journey of this beautiful couple. It resonates with me a lot, though I wasn't amish. I was in a different denomination of Christianity and saw some things in scriptures that weren't being practised. It can be a pretty confusing journey I know but each day I take heart in the fact that Jesus is our door to God and God is there waiting for our hearts to commune with Him. It's a step by step process and still is. God bless you and this channel.

Best Quote (outside of Scripture based quotes).. " ONE MILE OF ROAD HAS 2 MILES OF DITCHES"

This is an enlightening interview. A few points that I will highlight. The Amish life is romantized by books and movies. I am glad to see they have kept many of the values from their Amish life. He mentioned living Amish was an idol that God had to remove. Just as English people we need to remove our denomination from our heart and fill it with Jesus. I am glad they are a part of the family of God. Thank you for the boldness to tell your story.

Jesus the good shepherd seeks those who have gone astray He loved me ere I knew him And all my love is due him!

I grew up Amish and keep in mind to not put them all in the same box . I came from an area where there are a great amount of born again believers and believe in Jesus as there Lord and Savior. We switch our membership and a great number of them do not shun us .there are definitely some that do. There is revival in some parts of the communities. There are pastors that attend bible studies which would of not happen 10 years ago …

“28Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”” Matthew 11

We had very close Amish friends and one of the sons, that was married, came to know Jesus through reading scripture. The Son explained to his mother what happened to them and proceeded to tell her that half of the Amish are not saved. His mother said that he should not say that. Some of their family thought they just wanted to drive a car. One of their daughters explained to me, that the crushing feeling she had was like when we found out that my youngest brother was gay. I couldn’t believe that she equated the two. Thanks be to God that my brother came out of that lifestyle and loves Jesus.

What joy!! Sitting on his recliner and Holy Spirit washed over him❤
