So Proud of You Sean This Is A Huge Accomplishment 🙂 God Bless You and Your Family 🙂 God is Good All The Time & All The Time God Is Good Great Testimony Sean With God All Things Are Possible & I am a Christian Too God Bless You Sean I Love Your Channel 😊
It is very admirable that year after year, you discuss your struggle with alcoholism and are so public about it. Your 4 Years Sober video changed my perspective on not just alcohol, recreational drugs, etc, but on addiction and how to approach certain struggles that I have in my own personal life. This comment may not mean much in the grand scheme of your TH-cam channel, but hopefully you get to see this and know that you are someone I have a great deal of admiration and respect, not only as a film critic, but also as a father and a man. Keep up the great content and thank you for sharing your story.
Don’t mean to come off as rude but If you go back to his older videos like 8 years ago you can see he isn’t as energetic and doesn’t look as happy as today. I’m really happy for you man you inspire me to be better as an addict myself! 🙌🏽
I've watched your other videos about this over the years and will watch this one as well. Happy that you're doing well with this and hope you continue at it.
Sean, I have such great respect for you for being so open and honest about this. It may all seem like empty words seeing as I’m a complete stranger to you, but I am genuinely so proud of you. You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story, and congratulations on your wonderful achievement!
I remember hearing this story back 2 years ago but still an inspiring personal story though! Congrats on 5 years! (that's a big milestone!) God bless you, Sean!;)
@@LMCFootball If that is truly what you believe, you cannot deny the fact that Sean’s life was turned around because of something. And if Sean says that is Jesus, you cant really tell him that it wasn’t Jesus; you did not live his life, and didn’t have his experiences.
You should mention your faith more. It’s my favorite thing about your channel. Thank you for not being afraid to admit on the Internet that you need Christ!
Congratulations on 5 years! That is such a huge deal. I don’t often comment but I love hearing stories of successful recoveries. My childhood best friend just lost her long battle with heroin addiction last month. She fought hard for years and I’m no less proud of her for fighting till the end than if she had successfully gotten clean, and she still lives on through donated organs and the people she helped throughout her years in the church. Hearing the stories of survivors means more now than ever. Peace and blessings to you and yours with this huge milestone, Sean.
@@dalestrunk1749 thanks, Dale. It was a punch in the gut to say the very least, but I’m holding up. The circumstances could’ve been a lot worse than they were, as awful as that sounds. 5 different people including a child got her organs because she was a donor. That fact and listening to the stories of folks who successfully recovered help a lot with the coping.
Wow, so happy to hear this story from you Sean! The grace of God, and the saving power of Jesus Christ is truly transforming, and I'm so glad to hear what it could do for you in your life, and what it can do for all of us, by surrendering our lives to God, and saying "not my will, but Yours be done".
Every year Every year this man uploads the same video Every year he tells the exact same story And every year I watch and will watch solely because of the respect I have for him for overcoming his challenges
Dude this was so strong and moving. I love that u share this. Im a teenager struggling with alcohol not in the way that i want to drink alkohol and have ever Done it but my friends are and its really hard to deal with everything. This is great motivation for me and thanks for sharing. Much love and keep it up.
Sean, part of the reason I think your channel is so inspiring is because of your amazing transformation. It’s great. It’s honestly a symbol of hope for people across the globe. The hurdles you’ve overcome so far are great. Here’s to 5 more years.
I think this is another good verse to bring up since you mention pride a lot: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." I've heard this story a couple of times now and it's still cool to hear you sharing it with people in this way. It's very inspiring. Congrats again Sean. Enjoy this beautiful weekend with your family and friends. And same to everybody else out there with your own stories to tell and struggles to face. You may not realize it but there are always people out there that have your back.
It’s quite inspiring to see you reflect so openly about your story. It’s commendable that you found your way out of such horrible circumstances and talk about them freely. I hope this annual reflection video is a benefit to yourself - it’ll doubtlessly help to guide many in your audience.
Charis (Grace). Good name. I was named after the prophet Joshua in the Bible and my middle name Orion comes from the constellation of the hunter. When my dad was a missionary in Brazil, he wrote letters to the woman who would eventually become his wife and my mother and told her in the letters that every night he would look at the constellation Orion and think of her. He told her “Our first son should be named Orion” and my mom thought “No. His last name will already be Hickey. That’s bad enough. We’re not naming him Orion Hickey. That would be merciless. But I’m fine with Orion as a middle name”. My dad asked what her idea for a first name should be. That night she read about Joshua in the Bible and was inspired by his story, and that’s how she got the inspiration to give me the first name of Joshua.
For a yr and a half, I've been struggling with a porn addiction, It was originally just a coping mechanism to escape from covid, but it slowly became an addiction, a carving/desire for more that has dragged me into experiencing fatigue, sleepless nights, hypnic jerks and has sorta ruined my perspective on women. Recently, I've been reading the bible for forgiveness and asking god to help me in my times of need, and so far I'm trying to build the courage to tell my parents that i need help. I have to admit that asking for help isn't easy, especially when you have been fighting it for way too long, but I'll do what is necessary to get my life back to normal and ask god for forgiveness and acknowledging my sins/wrongdoings. I've been watching your channel for 2 years now, I've watched your other sober videos about how you struggled with alcohol and you humbled yourselves in front of others and in the sight of god, all i have to say is congrats on being sober for 5 yrs! You have inspired me to take action and seek help to end my porn addiction.
Thanks for sharing your story Sean awesome how you became a Christian and got off of alcohol and drinking it's bad for you gals you found Jesus and turned away from alcohol and your struggles Sean happy to hear that buddy👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Congratulations Sean Chandler that's awesome. My step dad is about a year sober but he mainly quit cause his liver is failing. He's on the transplant list now so hopeful he will find a match.
Last night I had a relapse and I was looking for a message like this, change is possible, you are strong and an inspiration, congratulations ! And thanks for giving us hope
That takes a lot of heart and courage to say all of that keep doing the work I love your channel my fav channels is you and c3 films❤❤😎 have a nice day bless your kids have a good weekend.
This is INCREDIBLE Sean. I’m a Christ follower as well and I think it’s amazing that you’re using your platform to share the gospel in such a powerful way, really really inspiring. I’ve been watching your videos for years and it’s so hard to imagine this being true about you. So thankful you got back on track to be a great husband and father to your children. Awesome upload
I’m happy your in a better place now than before. I’ve been watching your videos since summer of 2017 and every time I come out of a movie theater, I always watch your reviews and rankings. Always have faith and trust in yourself even if it’s one step at a time. God is always there for us and will never leave us. Congrats man!
Not many people like to look at their past and the obstacles they constantly faced through many years. Seans picks up his struggles and talks about them when the right time comes. That says a lot!
Proud of you Sean! I'm turning 18 next Wednesday (18 is legal drinking age here in Sweden) but I made a vow to never drink nor smoke in my life, glad to see you're doing great too!
If you want to reach out to me about my story, my DMs on Instagram are the best place to get ahold of me.
Thanks for your story it gives me hope.... I've struggled with alcoholism for the past 4 years
We are so proud of you

A toast of non alcoholic beverage to Sean, big congrats man
You couldn't just say congratulations without mentioning alcohol?
@@Nova-fh2et he said non alcohol? Doesn’t that count
@@ryeguy2256 turn your brain on
5 years! Wow! I’ve seen your story before, and it’s incredible. It truly shows how much Jesus can change someone’s life!
Jesus isn’t real
