Steven Furtick is a great pastor (motivational speaker), but this Shawn Johnson speaks with a deeper understanding of God is and how He works because of the work he’s done in this man’s life. No doubt that the Holy Spirit speaks for Shawn Johnson in his sermons. I feel it in my bones.
I am coming back to faith after being absent for 15 years. I'm 29 and suffer from severe panic disorder, so this video from Shawn deeply spoke to me through god. One of my best friends sent me this video from across the country, knowing that I needed to watch it. I have trouble driving, I'm worried about keeping my job, keeping relationships, moving forward in life, but I will now try to learn that it is okay to be broken. Thank you Shawn, Amen.
You will get through this period. Just keep faith & hand it all over to the Holy Spirit every time it overwhelms you w/ fear. I grew up in a hideously unbridled way with no boundaries with all that entails (all the predictable cliches of women with negligent dads, no need for explanation) it led me to a life of abandon & ceiling gripping anxiety and darkness, but you wouldn't believe how much brightness is on the other side. Please look up a book called "Dark night of the soul" by Thomas Moore. The darkness you are going through is so full with lessons & growth opportunities that it's unimaginable. But through it, just put all your fear in God's hands.
U may live in a small fish bowl now pastor Shawn, BUT praise GOD WE are only one ☝️ trumpet sound from that worldly “fishbowl” to AN OCEAN OF LOVE beyond imagination. This is only for a season, eternity is forever.
The Lord is with u, no matter what u feel or don't& in the worst time or in joy=remember Joseph. It too so much to go throu before Gods Dreams for him (& his familie; his nation) were visible to all. I pray that God continues to bring u to leason to His word; such sermons, God's blessings on you, AMEN
You are the best preacher I’ve ever listened too,I’ve been looking for so long to understand about god and Jesus,everything you say is so me and you make it all make sense to me,I am now 62 and spent years just not getting it,now I look forward to listening to you,and I wake up each day feeling so much better,I have struggled with depression,anxiety all my life,I live my life being afraid of everything,even death,but you are changing my life,I thank god that he has put you on my path,I prayed and asked god to help me find someone who would help me understand,and he is the one who got me to look on TH-cam to find you,I thank you and I thank Jesus,

I stumbled across you preaching , and I love your authenticity, and you sharing your brokenness..preaching is definitely one of your gifts ! Praying for you and your wife..thank you for your message 😇😇
I've been going to Park Meadows Red Rocks church for over the past 2 yrs,I love going there.its so energetic,it's great,I pray for Red Rocks church,So thank you God,Sean and Jill Johnson,and Staff,God bless
I accidently came across this video. I've been broken for a long time. Thank you for this powerful, honest, and moving message. I pray I can be set free. It's time.
Hello my name is aaron and i have listened to shawns audio book twice and it never stops helping me yo relate. I have been going through anxiety and panic for the last 11 months and i am trying to build and trust my heavinly father. It is hard when you are in the thick of it to see gods work but i know he is working and one day i will heal a little more just enough to allow myself to trust those around me and god to finally have that peace.
Thank you for being so transparent, for being real. This message hit home to me!! I've had this similar experience in 2018 & 2023. Thank you thank you thank you 👏👏🙌🙌🙏🙏💝
Shawn you are amazing and one of the best preachers I have ever encountered. God has annoited you with a special gift to share His word. Thank you for blessing my life every time I listen to your message. I share your messages with many because I want them to experience what I have. Thank you!!♥️🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻
One of the best sermons I've ever listened to thank you so so much for this word I really felt like it's not normal to have anxiety while I know the Lord and I now have the tools on getting better
I think I found my church. Thank you so much. I needed this today and have been so alone seeking. This made me feel included for the first time. Ive adopted you as one of my spirtual fathers/mentors now. Thank you for being genuine and honest and open. Ive recently been ushered into the Father heart of God and I am so in need for good mentors who genuinely care about people. Ive felt so beaten down and tossed away for so long.... I feel more encouraged now than ever in my life. Im living proof Jesus comes for the one left behind. Praise Jesus!!
Hello Jennifer! Thank you for reaching out and sharing some of your story with us! It takes a lot of courage to be vulnerable and we want you to know that we are here for you in any way that we can be! We would love to pray with you and for you. Feel free to head to redrockschurch.com/prayer where we have a whole team ready and willing to pray with you. God Bless!
I needed this so much. I had a panic attack last Saturday, a week ago, that had me broken in the fetal position, crying, in the middle of my bedroom floor. This meant so much to me to listen to. Thank you Pastor Shawn for being open and honest with us all!
Thank you for being so honest. I suffer just like you. I’ve seen those pastors you envy and they are good preachers but you bring something else to the table
You don’t know how much I admire & look up to you for being so honest about what’s going on with you!! Wish all preachers would be this honest & share what goes on with them. You’re an inspiration to all of us!!!♥️♥️
In a couple days I will celebrate a year here at Red Rocks Church. Ronnie Johnson is who brought me here because I wanted to keep learning from him; He was a teaching pastor at the church I attended for 8 yrs here in Dallas. For several months I went to both churches because I wanted to finish up the series this church was working through at the time. By Easter there was no going back for me. Slowly but surely I was plugged in here full time by then in large part to Shawn. I was searching for something for quite sometime from that other place that I wasnt getting. The sermons were great however many times I left not feeling connected. uplifted yes but I struggled with connection of the messages in my own life at that time. They are a family based ministry church and I'm single & that wasnt where my next steps were & still aren't honestly so I prayed often if "this is not where I am meant to continue to walk my path closer to God to remove me safely from it and without hast." For quite awhile I felt that and then one Saturday like today because of this platform TH-cam. A lightbulb went off a prayer answered really. Shawn spoken openly about his anxiety & depression I know I laughed my way through it as I tend to do to keep myself from deeply feeling it. I've been working through mine successfully for several years now; but by the end of the message I was telling myself... me too... how could he know that? and I realized in that moment HE knows that. Because of you Shawn and the messages at this church I feel present and connected back into my journey in a way I couldn't really put my finger on til now because you have done it again! Thank you Shawn, Thank you Ronnie and thank you Red Rock Church for everything you do, everything you are and for what you have yet to accomplish so that people like me can not only have a personal relationship with God but to feel and be at Home with HIM again.
Hey Brandy! We are joining you in prayer! We are so thankful for what God is up to & everything that Ronnie does for our church and people like you! Have a great week!
Just seeing this now, Nov.2021 Thank you so very much for letting God speak this message through you Pastor Johnson to so many people like me and others! We all need to hear this, need this kind of honesty especially in such a time as this!! Gos bless you and yours!!❤
I have suffered from anxiety and panic attacks off and on since 1994; the worst of which has been since 2009. I would love to know where Shawn got his inpatient treatment; or at least get the notes he used for this sermon/talk.
Hi Tony! Thank you for reaching out to us! Unfortunately, we don't have the notes for this particular message. Feel free to reach out to our team at onlinecampus@redrockschurch.com with any other questions you may have. God Bless!

I came here because I cannot listen to Steven Furtick anymore. He had a message with a clip circulating the internet about a message I won't even remember. I do remember him talking about a Bible character and stating how crazy they were and how that was a time before Bipolar Disorder. The words that followed were so ignorant, thoughtless, and hurtful that I don't know if or when I can push past those words to listen to him again. He painted Bipolar people as a prime example of crazy people and flippantly cut through me in a way that solidified my decision to keep my Bipolar diagnosis a secret from practically every one in my life. He wouldn't understand the trauma that caused my Bipolar. He wouldn't understand what it was like to me sexually harassed and assaulted so many times that I purposefully let myself get over 200 lbs to have men leave me alone. He wouldn't know what it was like being so depressed that you considered suicide or what a week in the psych ward for a week felt like after meds caused insomnia that lasted over 8 days in a row. He never considered he would actually have someone Bipolar that listened to him and would find his portrayal of people with Bipolar Disorder a betrayal. All he thought about was making a vivid point in a way he didn't think would hurt anyone he came close to. And, that is how I ended up here. Maybe I was supposed to find this church instead. Steven Furtick is popular, but just as flawed as the rest of us. At least here, I don't feel like I have to hide the broken part of who I am for fear of being treated as lesser than.
Hi onlyallegra! We're so sorry that you had that experience! We can't imagine the hurt you might be feeling right now, but we are encouraged to hear that you have felt like you can be you and not have to hide anything when you are with us. Welcome home and we pray that you feel loved, valued, and accepted. A big part of who we are as a church is knowing that we are all broken, messed up, imperfect people trying to pursue a perfect God. We would love to connect more and even hear more of your story if you are up for it. Feel free to email onlinecampus@redrockschurch.com so we can connect with you, get to know you a little bit, and answer any questions you might have! Have a blessed day!
@@redrockschurchYT Don't even know where you are but I am sure we are in different states. I am all the way in Illinois and ended up here trying to find a pastor online that gets anxiety. It stinks what he went through, but I felt understood for the first time in years listening to him. Haven't gone to church in person for years, thanks to COVID and living so far from church. I am high risk, so I am isolated apartment from work, shopping, and therapy. Found this online and am glad I did. It's kind of a happy accident.
You wow me every video I watch pastor shawn the best part to me is that you share your life with us and your honest we are all human!! I finally found a church I can relate to thank you so much for keeping my faith in our Lord Jesus Christ strong!! I found this video online and I am so happy I did! God bless everyone!!!
Love your honesty. I am Jesus's child. Former alkie. Got sobriety the hard way. 6 1/2 years sober living. Takes work though. And anxiety and depression my friend also. But God gets me through it. My mom passed away Oct. 2. Never got closure with her. Have to let it go. Turn it over. But I know I don't have to dwell in depression, remorse or guilt anymore. Jesus saved me. And I will continue to turn my life over to him. And praise him. God Bless you and your family. Thank you for your transparency. We got this. With god. Luv Deb.
What a blessing to have found you. I've been so lost in pain, feeling alone and forsaken. But I feel that God is speaking to me through you. I have never enjoyed listening to teachings as much as I enjoy listening to you. I thank God for you. I was almost at my end until you.
This has helped me so much !! 😭 my husband and son deal with anxiety 😭 . This has been very hard because I didn’t know how bad it is . Thank you for being so honest with this . I promise this has helped me 😭 to understand my family . I hope you write a book . I’m sharing this with my boys ... Again thank you I needed this
There is too much stigma on depression and anxiety which causes people to suffer more. I live with depression/anxiety I understand you completely. You are amazing, thank you for being who you are, thank you for helping me become closer to god. God bless
Thank you Pastor! Your transparency is exactly what people need; exactly what I needed in this moment. Please, please, please continue to allow God (not other leaders you may look-up to) but God to direct the path of your church and your life. Do EVERYTHING for the Lord...not for people (Matthew 6:33). Thank you to you and your wife!! (from Tennessee). I am so blessed and changed by your messages. Keep serving the Lord! Ephesians 1:15-19
Pastor Johnson !!!!! You are the most relevant pastor to me and your sermons reach me on every level . Keep up Gods work . I know God speaks through you 😊
How powerful! Thank you for sharing your heart!!! Pastor Steve Furtick is an amazing Pastor as are you! You both bring different perspectives and bless me in different ways! I love your lovely wife and your amazing worship team! Blessings may God take your broken pieces and continue to create a master piece for His GLORY and His honor! In Jesus name!
I truly needed this. Not sure how I found it….I was looking up songs. A part of me is dying currently and I couldn’t make sense of it until I watched this. Thank you.
Amen Tiffany! We are praying for God to move and encourage you to go to redrockschurch.com/prayer where we have a whole team willing and ready to pray with you through this!
You have no idea how much this has helped. I've been broken for months and was deteriorating, but I kept powering through. I was treating my husband so terribly and I'm so remorseful and ashamed. I didn't know I was this sick. I've finally asked for help, but my husband has left me and has filed for divorce. He hates me, will not speak to me. He has blocked me. I think he's better off without me; I feel completely broken.
Hi Jenny! Thank you for reaching out and sharing some of your story with us! It takes a lot of courage to be vulnerable and we want you to know that we are here for you in any way that we can be!

Do you think that "Christian Music Artist" should be making royalties on worship music created for Gods people to worship God in today's churches? Where does worship have a monetary value in the bible?
I have told God that I am broken and that I suspect that Heaven will be full of so many broken people. 💔 I know that He loves us but I believe that the God of all creation deserves so much better. Protect Your precious heart from all hurt and pain and from all comers, I pray, Father. You deserve honor, our worship and all of our praise, Lord. I call You, Mine. 🙏💗🙏
Shawn, God has reached to me today, through you. My soul has been touched, began the revival of my faith after many many years. I was watching random channels today, I’m having a bad day (my depression and anxiety) and then suggested was your church, your guidance, Gods love and here I am, thanking God for bringing me here, restoring my faith and feeling worthy of his love. For finally admitting I am Broken. I pray I will one day mend, to the point where I am no longer ashamed. Thanking for your honesty, your reality and truth. Past pain I am going to deal with, layer by layer and I look forward to working towards forgiveness and to move forward once again but this time with God in my heart. Thank You Shawn, thank You God. Thank You Jesus for welcoming me home. God Bless you and Your Family, God Bless You All xx 🙏 🇬🇧
Pastor Shawn and Jill Johnson, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to worship with you. Pastor Shawn I listened to " When past hurts still hurt" and I've listened to your every word. I'm exhausted being Covid 19 and your testimony allowed me to set myself free from the chains that bind me. I'm in Safety Harbor, FL. And stream my Sunday church service where I grew up in NJ. Grace Episcopal Church in Madison, NJ where I was in the church choir and was a Sunday school teacher until age 25 when we moved out of state. I look forward to hearing you speak and I wish I could hug you right now. A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. It's hard being around people who continually talk about covid and wear masks.I feel like a leper and feel such shame but now I can't keep this pace up and must hand it to God. Thank you for being you and for being born. I need you!! Good night!! Hugs to you,Jill and your boys. Lynne Miller. I know I died 3 yrs ago just not sure what my new identity is yet. Hope to meet you one day in person to thank you. Not sure what God has in plan for me but I'm giving him all my love, power and might tonight! Xo
This message really speak to me. When I was first diagnosed with panic attack back in 2018, it was the first time I've heard about it. What this pastor spoke about is what i have been experiencing over the years. I know God has really been keeping me. I pray that one day I will overcome and anyone else that is having anxiety disorders.
Hi Kethy! Thank you for reaching out to us and sharing some of your story with us! We would love to connect with you and pray with you if you are interested. You can go to redrockschurch.com/prayer or reach out to our team directly at onlinecampus@redrockschurch.com. God Bless!
I just found this guy….heard of Red Rocks but haven’t followed so to speak. I’m 53 , lived in BHam for my college and adult life up until 5 years ago. I attended Church of the Highlands first service at Mtn Brook Highschool and over the years primarily just those We’d night services on an occasional basis. Never joined but hundreds of people I know and and many of those being friends have remained there and apart of COH . I’m def broken and have been so for over a decade…broken to point of not being functional majority of the time. I have lost all support and connection. I’m now in another state living and trying to stay the course for my youngest daughter to finish Highschool in 2 years. But I have to admit I’m not thriving and haven’t been able to find a group of people to walk it out with me. I decided God has had me to do it this way. But I’m losing this fight…..I’m asking for prayer and encouragement
Hi Ashley! We are so sorry to hear that you have been going through all of that! First, we are speaking truth and strength over you right now in the name of Jesus and because you still have breath in your lunges means God is not done with you! He has more in store so keep fighting! We will absolutely be praying for you and we want to encourage you to go to redrockschurch.com/prayer where you can submit a prayer request. We have a whole team that would love to come alongside you in prayer and fight with you as well! Feel free to email onlinecampus@redrockschrurch.com if you want to get more connected or want to connect with a Pastor! God bless!
I am at the lowest point in my life.I know there is no way to go but up. I lost a relationship with the greatest woman I have ever known. I know God is able to restore. I walked away from it because I was not in a good spot. Please pray.
Steven Furtick is a great pastor (motivational speaker), but this Shawn Johnson speaks with a deeper understanding of God is and how He works because of the work he’s done in this man’s life. No doubt that the Holy Spirit speaks for Shawn Johnson in his sermons. I feel it in my bones.

Maybe I was supposed to find this church instead. Steven Furtick is popular, but just as flawed as the rest of us. At least here, I don't feel like I have to hide the broken part of who I am for fear of being treated as lesser than.
Hi onlyallegra! We're so sorry that you had that experience! We can't imagine the hurt you might be feeling right now, but we are encouraged to hear that you have felt like you can be you and not have to hide anything when you are with us. Welcome home and we pray that you feel loved, valued, and accepted. A big part of who we are as a church is knowing that we are all broken, messed up, imperfect people trying to pursue a perfect God. We would love to connect more and even hear more of your story if you are up for it. Feel free to email onlinecampus@redrockschurch.com so we can connect with you, get to know you a little bit, and answer any questions you might have! Have a blessed day!
@@redrockschurchYT Don't even know where you are but I am sure we are in different states. I am all the way in Illinois and ended up here trying to find a pastor online that gets anxiety. It stinks what he went through, but I felt understood for the first time in years listening to him. Haven't gone to church in person for years, thanks to COVID and living so far from church. I am high risk, so I am isolated apartment from work, shopping, and therapy. Found this online and am glad I did. It's kind of a happy accident.
I just discovered you and I’m so blessed by your testimony.
You wow me every video I watch pastor shawn the best part to me is that you share your life with us and your honest we are all human!! I finally found a church I can relate to thank you so much for keeping my faith in our Lord Jesus Christ strong!! I found this video online and I am so happy I did! God bless everyone!!!
I think ur awesome
Love your honesty. I am Jesus's child. Former alkie. Got sobriety the hard way. 6 1/2 years sober living. Takes work though. And anxiety and depression my friend also. But God gets me through it. My mom passed away Oct. 2. Never got closure with her. Have to let it go. Turn it over. But I know I don't have to dwell in depression, remorse or guilt anymore. Jesus saved me. And I will continue to turn my life over to him. And praise him. God Bless you and your family. Thank you for your transparency. We got this. With god. Luv Deb.
What a blessing to have found you. I've been so lost in pain, feeling alone and forsaken. But I feel that God is speaking to me through you. I have never enjoyed listening to teachings as much as I enjoy listening to you. I thank God for you. I was almost at my end until you.
Is it possible to subtitle in Portuguese? Thanks!
Maybe someday! We will join you in prayer for volunteers to step forward!
This has helped me so much !! 😭 my husband and son deal with anxiety 😭 . This has been very hard because I didn’t know how bad it is . Thank you for being so honest with this . I promise this has helped me 😭 to understand my family . I hope you write a book . I’m sharing this with my boys ... Again thank you I needed this
There is too much stigma on depression and anxiety which causes people to suffer more. I live with depression/anxiety I understand you completely. You are amazing, thank you for being who you are, thank you for helping me become closer to god. God bless
Amen 🙏 brother
I love Red Rocks, I love pastor Shawn. But I really do wish we would have more scriptures to refer to..
Thank you Pastor! Your transparency is exactly what people need; exactly what I needed in this moment. Please, please, please continue to allow God (not other leaders you may look-up to) but God to direct the path of your church and your life. Do EVERYTHING for the Lord...not for people (Matthew 6:33). Thank you to you and your wife!! (from Tennessee). I am so blessed and changed by your messages. Keep serving the Lord! Ephesians 1:15-19
A year ago this week I leaned in to this from a hotel room. God is good and so faithful.
Pastor Johnson !!!!! You are the most relevant pastor to me and your sermons reach me on every level . Keep up Gods work . I know God speaks through you 😊
A life changing message! Thank you Pastor Shawn!
Wow!!!! GBU all!! Thank you Pastor Shawn!! 😃🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼😊👍🏼
How powerful! Thank you for sharing your heart!!!
Pastor Steve Furtick is an amazing Pastor as are you! You both bring different perspectives and bless me in different ways!
I love your lovely wife and your amazing worship team!
Blessings may God take your broken pieces and continue to create a master piece for His GLORY and His honor!
In Jesus name!
I deeply relate with this message. Thank you so much Pastor Shawn. You're a true messenger from Jehovah!
Thankyou Jesus for healing me
THANK YOU JESUS FOR LEADING ME TO SHAWN JOHNSON..LOVE FROM NEW ZEALAND
You are a real inspiration and a gift to this world. I will be listening to your teachings every Sunday! Thank you
I truly needed this. Not sure how I found it….I was looking up songs. A part of me is dying currently and I couldn’t make sense of it until I watched this. Thank you.
Thank You, Shawn, for sharing and allowing God to heal/and continue to heal you. A word that comes to mind is transparency...
Yes! Authenticity is one of our core values and we believe Shawn modeled that SO well this weekend!
I am great 👍for this finding this challenge to grow in this
Thank you pastor Shawn for being so courageous and honest.. Another great message💙
I need god to intervene in my life
Amen Tiffany! We are praying for God to move and encourage you to go to redrockschurch.com/prayer where we have a whole team willing and ready to pray with you through this!
Absolutely beautiful! Needed to hear this ❤️
Appreciate your vibes ! God bless!
You have no idea how much this has helped. I've been broken for months and was deteriorating, but I kept powering through. I was treating my husband so terribly and I'm so remorseful and ashamed. I didn't know I was this sick. I've finally asked for help, but my husband has left me and has filed for divorce. He hates me, will not speak to me. He has blocked me. I think he's better off without me; I feel completely broken.
Hi Jenny! Thank you for reaching out and sharing some of your story with us! It takes a lot of courage to be vulnerable and we want you to know that we are here for you in any way that we can be! We would love to pray with you and for you. Feel free to head to redrockschurch.com/prayer where we have a whole team ready and willing to pray with you. God Bless!
@@redrockschurchYT Thank you. Yes, I am in desperate need of prayer. I went to the website you provided and filled out a request just now. Thank you.
Do you think that "Christian Music Artist" should be making royalties on worship music created for Gods people to worship God in today's churches? Where does worship have a monetary value in the bible?
I have told God that I am broken and that I suspect that Heaven will be full of so many broken people. 💔 I know that He loves us but I believe that the God of all creation deserves so much better.
Protect Your precious heart from all hurt and pain and from all comers, I pray, Father. You deserve honor, our worship and all of our praise, Lord. I call You, Mine. 🙏💗🙏
Shawn, God has reached to me today, through you. My soul has been touched, began the revival of my faith after many many years.
I was watching random channels today, I’m having a bad day (my depression and anxiety) and then suggested was your church, your guidance, Gods love and here I am, thanking God for bringing me here, restoring my faith and feeling worthy of his love. For finally admitting I am Broken. I pray I will one day mend, to the point where I am no longer ashamed. Thanking for your honesty, your reality and truth. Past pain I am going to deal with, layer by layer and I look forward to working towards forgiveness and to move forward once again but this time with God in my heart. Thank You Shawn, thank You God. Thank You Jesus for welcoming me home. God Bless you and Your Family, God Bless You All xx 🙏 🇬🇧
Pastor Shawn and Jill Johnson, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to worship with you. Pastor Shawn I listened to " When past hurts still hurt" and I've listened to your every word. I'm exhausted being Covid 19 and your testimony allowed me to set myself free from the chains that bind me. I'm in Safety Harbor, FL. And stream my Sunday church service where I grew up in NJ. Grace Episcopal Church in Madison, NJ where I was in the church choir and was a Sunday school teacher until age 25 when we moved out of state. I look forward to hearing you speak and I wish I could hug you right now. A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. It's hard being around people who continually talk about covid and wear masks.I feel like a leper and feel such shame but now I can't keep this pace up and must hand it to God. Thank you for being you and for being born. I need you!! Good night!! Hugs to you,Jill and your boys. Lynne Miller. I know I died 3 yrs ago just not sure what my new identity is yet. Hope to meet you one day in person to thank you. Not sure what God has in plan for me but I'm giving him all my love, power and might tonight! Xo
Thanks God !!!
I really needed to hear this. I know I was led to this video. God bless you for sharing. Amen 🙏 🇿🇦
Hi it’s been two years since this was posted but God has this helped me
So glad you came across it!
The pain is real 🙌🏻🕊️
3:30. really needed this
You are awesome
Your amazing!!! Loved your service. Thank you Shawn!!! Keep it up. Your a gem!
great sermon
I can't thank you enough for this message! Your vulnerability is so helpful and reassuring to the rest of us that at broken.
I'm broken too
If you don't have believe then you should leave me and do focus own you're work I'm not forcing to any one here
I am going through the same way you getl when you are panicking. Pray for me.
This message really speak to me. When I was first diagnosed with panic attack back in 2018, it was the first time I've heard about it. What this pastor spoke about is what i have been experiencing over the years. I know God has really been keeping me. I pray that one day I will overcome and anyone else that is having anxiety disorders.

I just found this guy….heard of Red Rocks but haven’t followed so to speak.
I’m 53 , lived in BHam for my college and adult life up until 5 years ago. I attended Church of the Highlands first service at Mtn Brook Highschool and over the years primarily just those We’d night services on an occasional basis. Never joined but hundreds of people I know and and many of those being friends have remained there and apart of COH .
I’m def broken and have been so for over a decade…broken to point of not being functional majority of the time.
I have lost all support and connection. I’m now in another state living and trying to stay the course for my youngest daughter to finish Highschool in 2 years. But I have to admit I’m not thriving and haven’t been able to find a group of people to walk it out with me. I decided God has had me to do it this way. But I’m losing this fight…..I’m asking for prayer and encouragement

I am at the lowest point in my life.I know there is no way to go but up. I lost a relationship with the greatest woman I have ever known. I know God is able to restore. I walked away from it because I was not in a good spot. Please pray.
Sending prayers 🙏
Praying for you.
Thank you Shawn
🙏🏻✨🙏🏻✨
I WANT A MAN LIKE PASTOR SHAWN... OF COURSE, IF I HAD A MAN GORGEOUS AND RICH LIKE HIM, I WOULD THANK JESUS EVERY SINGLE MINUTE....
I'm new but I love your honesty. I'm just tired of picking the wrong man.
