My Brother Scott is still today very missed. But we rejoice in that we know we will see him one day soon. We struggle to understand at times why God allows things but we know that he never wastes a single event. Paul Youngs story is so valuable in that God can take all that brokenness and make a treasure to give back to the world, a story which continues to impact lives. His pain is helping others. God sees the end from the beginning. What an amazing God we serve. He knows how to impact lives. You can't make this up. But God!

Hi Tracey, I was born in Three Hills and went back there as a junior and senior in high school! Although I didn't know Scott and Connie there I heard Scott's story in 2011 but it wasn't until 2012 that I started watching Paul's videos on KZread! That's when I connected Paul with Scott! Scott was so a part of Paul's history and God wove that part of Scott's and Paul's lives together to make a beautiful tapestry! Oh what a beautiful day it will be when they will get to see each other face to face just as your reunion will be!

He wrote it to bless his children, God distributed it to bless His children.

What a disgusting excuse for a father.

Praise God for giving willing people the right words at the right times to speak into people's lives.

I totally resonate with this man. One must face their childhood wounds, come to your knees and face your pain head on to truly understand what he's saying. Once you awaken from this abyss of life , there is no turning back. You will live your truth with an open heart and mind. greatest pain brings us to our greatest blessing . You will come to know your true essence, to know who you truly are is to know God.

I'm amazed about the problems that churches have tried to cause about the book. And how they can't see that this book has spoke to the hearts of people who has been so troubled they could not use the Bible anymore .To hold their heart and life together. And this book bringing them back to the understanding that GOD is there and now Revitalize their lives .How they can't realize that anything that brings you into loving GOD bringing HIM into your heart lifting you up out of the pain .How they would like to remove this from them that is heartless. Thank you for making people realize that God is good and that they should treat the other's feelings first other than their own.May all your wishes be the WILL OF GOD.

I met Paul recently when he came to my town. I so appreciate hearing his lifestory. I can relate to his story in so many ways. He's now my favorite speaker. I love that his message is welcome in such varied places. I see someone to follow in Paul. So grateful I met him.

"And they have defeated [satan: shame, whatever builds our shacks] by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony." Revelation 12:11. Powerful testimony, Paul Young.

Bryan Payne Very, very sorry to hear that.

What ever became of his father, the missionary?

I've noticed that most of the churches or people that are against the book delete the ability for you to comment. They're cutting off their congregation from replying. Maybe they're afraid that what they're teaching somebody will show their stupidity with the answer. I wrote most of this below before I listen to the interview. One thing that changed my thoughts where the shack being the heart. But the shack turned back into the old ragged building in the end let's hope your heart didn't do the same.

Tarquin, if you aren't a Christian it's probably not likely that you will understand, because it's all about our relationship with God, and His affinity and ability to heal us from the inside, by destroying our facades and allowing us to see that there's a seed that can produce life in spite of all the crap we try to hold on to😊

Dark Shadows, According to the Bible blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is the ONLY unforgivable sin see Mark 3:28-29.

Marge Blankenship, John 8 : 23 But He continued, "You are from below; I Am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the One I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins." "Who are you?" they asked. "Just what I have been claiming all along," Jesus replied. "I have much to say in judgment of you. But He who sent Me is reliable, and what I have heard from Him I tell the world." Titus 3 : 3 - 5 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, (and) hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Savior toward man appeared. Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit. 2 Timothy 4 : 2 - 4 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away (their) ears; from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. Jesus Christ did die on the cross for the sins of all humanity, but every person must choose to take His gracious offer of forgiveness & be included in His loving redemption !!! We have one life on this earth, & then there is after our death the judgment by Jesus Christ of every person & we all will give account every word & deed. Christians who have humbled themselves & accepted Jesus Christ's gracious offer of forgiveness will be with God for all eternity in Heaven. Non-Christians who have chosen not to take His forgiveness, choose to pay for their own punishment of their sins & will go to Hell. That is why on at least 12 occasions in the Bible, Jesus Christ personally warned non-believers not to go to Hell because of His great love for them. Jesus Christ does not lie! The loving triune God is utterly Gracious but completely Just !!! After our death there is no second chances, absolutely none. THERE IS NO UNIVERSAL RECONCILIATION !!!

Marge Blankenship, John 3 : 3 - 7 In reply Jesus declared, " I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." "How can a man be born when he is old?' Nicodemus asked. "Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!" Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again.' John 3 : 14 - 19 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil."
