Love this poem I'm still a virgin &proud ...saving myself for my husband!(: even though I'm only 17 it gets hard sometimes because the guys always break up with me ,but its all worth just make me know even more they only wanted my body &looks but the men that waits for me will not only want my body but my soul too!(:
i heard this a while back 3 years ago but i wasnt christian, i was just a believer of god but i was worshipping false gods....but i knew this m ade sense, and now i am christian and i see that god has been showing me signs all this time
welcome to the family. Very glad to know you found the way. you've got an army with you. few in numbers but stronger then any other army. You will struggle, like everyone. but remember Gods always there, and so is your family... in us. your family. we gotcha now, you won't fall
I am 27yrs old and I can say I'm still a child trying find his way. Unfortunately I have lost/ hurt many along the way, and I hope now that I realize my wrongs that I may be guided in the right direction. Not to be the perfect man but to be the man I was meant to truly be.
I wish more little boys could grow up to be this kind of man =( This kind of unafraid strength and unwavering knowledge of purpose is like water to the thirsty woman =) All guys take heed! We need men, not boys- love this video, sir!
Beautiful. God bless the men who are not afraid to stand for Jesus despite what the world thinks...just as Christ lived....WE are to be a peculiar people. Praise the Lord!
YES GOD!!!!!!! When you become a man.... Blown away completely the entire time i was screaming yes.. God you took me me to church, my youth have to see this.
This is a man of integrity. He takes responsibility for his wrongs even though he wasn't taught any better, and he admits he is not perfect, and that he needs God. Love him!
When a man can say he is a man for the first time - its so amazing! To stand tall like a man and smile like a man and love like a man. being a man of God is what men are made from.
It's beautiful to see a man who is courageous enough to stand transparent to the world --unafraid to tell of past pains, hurts, and failures while pointing out the only way to peace, wholeness, and life (the Son of God, Jesus Christ) May God continue to bless you and your ministry.
Phil Allen,this was amazing in unbelief!i keep playing this over and over again!i am not a man but I do raise two boys on my own and with the grace of god they will soon be men!i have so much to say to you but to sum it up,Thank you for that!from me, my sisters and my brothers,thank you!
I absolutely LOVE this! I love seeing a name who proclaims the without God, he wasn't perfect. And I love when he talks about the woman! This is how every man should feel. :)
I just never get enough of this video, each time that I watch it, I get goosebumps all over my body and tears in my eyes. I hope that one day, every single man will get to watch and be touched by this message. God is always doing great things.
Thank you brotha who spoke these words. Thank you for picking up the gospel and opening ur mouth to speak the very utterances of the Spirit. Thank you in a time where many women are hurt and discouraged at the lack of men willing to pick up the gospel in the way they relate to them. Men willing to kill their pride and sacrifice their very life to love and honor and cherish their sister, their own sister! Thank you for the reminder that God has to move on the heart of a man so he can hear.
This is just too beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration. Will definitely be doing something like this soon. Time to really put the games away, and pick up the gospel.
He's a pastor at my church and just gave a powerful sermon! He's a true disciple of Christ! He speaks with conviction and passion. You can't help but believe him. Praise God for this redeemed man of God.
I'm an atheist but this poems beautiful =]. The way he rhymes the words and makes them sound as if he were singing. Describes his tribulations and triumphs. Great poem!
Beautifully sewn, a seed into our hearts. I fail. I am unworthy but I never give up and God has never given up on me. This shines brightly on one of the biggest problems of today.We are distracted in all of the toys that we have taken from children.
No way? Phil Allen speaks at my church on a regular basis. I had no idea he did youtube stuff. This is great! Such a great pastor. He has made some of the best points in the bible that I have ever heard.
This really is the story of my life. This is my inspiration of my journey to becoming a man. My journey of breaking the chains of my sinful, childish ways, and transforming into the man of God that He created me to be.
Thanks I am speechless You know what I love about being a man and believing in Jesus Christ that secretly all men want this. I get hit over and over again by this worlds temptations,Lust,Lies when they can't break your Spirit they tempt you with there friendships they just hate it when you don't fall. They hate it if you say No while they all wish in there hearts that they to would have the guts to stand up and be counted.
"For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also" James 2:26 .........Pastor Phil has the faith, and his works here are conveyed through the word ! Inspiring !
Im sitting here weeping..i have to chose between two paths...one that leads to a man I care for across countrt..who's destructive to my love for Jesus..but oh...is he tempting..than I have an option to just be still...my same old life..to stay..this video made me realize I want a man...not a boy.a Godly man..thank you for this..
No problem; it is my pleasure to answer questions, even ones that are difficult to think about. There are many who know much more than me (i just turned 20). I hope to present my faith by following the Bible's command to "test all things". It is wonderful to learn about what others think, because I can listen to others without compromising the core of my faith. Religion you can study from a scientific perspective, but spirituality you cannot. God can neither be proved to exist or not to exist.
I watch this more than once everyday. it definently keeps me on the right path and is constantly reminding me what i really should be going for in life. Really this man is who i want/need to be. Love you man this is beautiful
This video has put a lot into perspective for me. Normally I'd try to post something witty or attempt to crack a joke, but this... this deserves more respect than that. This man truly is a man. And he's shown me I've got a LONG way to go if I'm going to call myself a true follower of Christ. That's all I can say
I'm glad you found a better life in Christianity. I was starting to myself, until I read the bible and found out how much more mature I am to the god described in the bible by simply caring about my fellow people, regardless how they treat me. I personally don't believe there is a god, but I hold a belief that if I'm wrong, the god that exists is better than me, and thus, better than the god of the bible.
Love this poem I'm still a virgin &proud ...saving myself for my husband!(: even though I'm only 17 it gets hard sometimes because the guys always break up with me ,but its all worth just make me know even more they only wanted my body &looks but the men that waits for me will not only want my body but my soul too!(:
I cried literally when i saw this because this is the type of man im attempting to become.
I still bless the day my cousin introduced me to this piece. Changed my life in ways i cannot explain.
WHEN I BECAME A MADE. GOD GAVE ME THE STRENGTH TO LIVE WITH OUT THE PAIN.....NO DOUBT ONE OF THE BEST POEMS THAT I HAVE EVER READ!!!!
i heard this a while back 3 years ago but i wasnt christian, i was just a believer of god but i was worshipping false gods....but i knew this m ade sense, and now i am christian and i see that god has been showing me signs all this time
+Tony Cruise Amen!

I love it. ... if more men step up and realize who they are and the power they have, then we wouldn't loose our young men to the streets.
I always find myself returning to this video, this piece. What it means to be a man. Sending you love. And thank you.
I have been changed. This struck me so deep, I am a better person after this. And I will strive to be a better man.
I wish more little boys could grow up to be this kind of man =( This kind of unafraid strength and unwavering knowledge of purpose is like water to the thirsty woman =) All guys take heed! We need men, not boys- love this video, sir!
This is pure fire! God just used this mans spoken word to speak to me and to inspire me. Glory be to God !
Beautiful. God bless the men who are not afraid to stand for Jesus despite what the world thinks...just as Christ lived....WE are to be a peculiar people. Praise the Lord!
" I want Him to be my Father, and my Father In Law, since that's His daughter"....... Beautiful 😪
when i became a man i learned how to love God back...... Love it!
Pick up the gospel.
Pick up the GOSPEL
and put the toys away.
i long to be that man...and i know i will be that man only thru Christ Jesus
YES GOD!!!!!!! When you become a man.... Blown away completely the entire time i was screaming yes.. God you took me me to church, my youth have to see this.
Hahaa ........he's rebuilding the Church - God's Word Architect !!!!
this is what the world should hear on national TV. so all can hear the truth. thank God for you that show Gods light!!! God bless you!!!
IF I KNOW WHAT TO SAY ABOUT THIS, THEN IT WILL BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT.........BEST PIECE EVER
This is a man of integrity. He takes responsibility for his wrongs even though he wasn't taught any better, and he admits he is not perfect, and that he needs God. Love him!
This is wonderful. I am a perfect example of someone whose life was transformed 'when I became a man'.
When a man can say he is a man for the first time - its so amazing! To stand tall like a man and smile like a man and love like a man. being a man of God is what men are made from.
Hallelujah!!! Great Man of God!
Beautiful!!! And may that glory go to God.
"I've discovered, that there are medicinal qualities down the corridor of introspection." Best line of this spoken word piece.
Amen!!! Thanks for reminding I'm a man. All Glory be to God
It's beautiful to see a man who is courageous enough to stand transparent to the world --unafraid to tell of past pains, hurts, and failures while pointing out the only way to peace, wholeness, and life (the Son of God, Jesus Christ)
May God continue to bless you and your ministry.

BEAUTIFUL!!! MY LORD HOW BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
“I learned to respect her like Jesus’s mother”... that line alone taught me everything I need to know about how to treat a woman
This world needs more men of God like this.
This is real good and can inspire people to become an real man and not a fake one
I absolutely LOVE this! I love seeing a name who proclaims the without God, he wasn't perfect. And I love when he talks about the woman! This is how every man should feel. :)
I'm crying to this. The feelings the way he spoke his words so real and so genuine.
This man is a prime example of a true man. Not a man of the world, but a man of God.
Gives me chills every single time. God Bless You All.
I just never get enough of this video, each time that I watch it, I get goosebumps all over my body and tears in my eyes. I hope that one day, every single man will get to watch and be touched by this message. God is always doing great things.
happy to see God grace in you might men, God bless you

This just helped me think more about my situation.
Right On! Where do I find such a Man? What a rare gem in today's society!
This is just too beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration. Will definitely be doing something like this soon. Time to really put the games away, and pick up the gospel.

This is a very emotionally inspiring thought provoking piece.

He is faithful.
This poem is beautiful. It opened my eyes to something different>
"through my praise, I'll self publish a testimony" fav. line
ma spirit is moved 2 become a MAN
This speech makes me think of all the things I can do in life. How I can live above the standards as a fifteen year old.
So heres where Clayton Jennings got his inspiration from, hmm..
when I became a man I learned to love God right back..... I love to Cry beecause I am not ashamed of it....... Learned to love her my Esther, my Ruth
apology accepted bro...no worries man. Thanks!
Beautifully sewn, a seed into our hearts. I fail. I am unworthy but I never give up and God has never given up on me. This shines brightly on one of the biggest problems of today.We are distracted in all of the toys that we have taken from children.
Yo!!!! That poem was is testament and evidence that I shall NEVER give up on BLACK MEN!
I am not religious, nor am I a man, but that was the most beautiful truth I've ever heard.
A wonderful testimony. Thank-you for posting and for making
No way? Phil Allen speaks at my church on a regular basis. I had no idea he did youtube stuff. This is great! Such a great pastor. He has made some of the best points in the bible that I have ever heard.

In a world where the "ART" of poetry is lost, you have found the rabbits trail home my friend. Keep moving forward.
When I became a man I learned how to love God back...wooooow!!!!!!!!!!
"But I learned to love her like I oughtta, because I want him to be my father, and my father in law, since thats his daughter!" Truly touching!
"Nor did Pixar have a film to show me what God's man really looked like."
this is so inspiring and amazing. I love spoken word poems
PEACE, AND BLESSINGS BEAUTIFULLY SAID
Beautiful! I shared this with my 16 year old son. He is lost right now but I pray this will touch his heart! Thank you!

This is just what I had to hear !!! thank you so mutch for sharing this !! I want to put the toys away and become a man !!!
This is very emotional, very few men will ever see the day he becomes a man because we have very few who will step up!
God is so good what a testimony every-time I hear this it encourages me to put away my childish things and pick up the gospel forever
is there a way to like this 200 times? my goodness. Thankfully you became a MAN... we need more men
These words are POWERFUL and convicting!!!

Awesome! Love the fact you connected your wife to your father/father-in-law. Prayers and blessings.
There is nothing like a man of God.
