Are my eyes and ears deceiving me? Is Jeff throwing a video at us? 👏🏼😭
Ja ja ja jaja ja ja
Ester F ha!! It’s been awhile huh?! Sorry been focusing on few other projects the last year or so. But maybe this means I should bring back more consistent videos 😎? I sure do miss em! Ha
Jefferson Bethke do what you can! I just share your videos to my fellow Christians as well as nonbelievers. Helps with sparking a conversation about God in a creative way.
@@JeffersonBethkepage we ALL miss them
Cristian Lucaci bro! It’s not that deep 🙄 it was just for comedic effect
“We’re walking ahead of Jesus.” BOOM! That one hit me!
I'm Brett Eldredge and I welcome you all to my dog page Edgarboogie, You can private chat with via Edgar Email or hangout : boogieedgar@gmail.com
Sometimes we sprint ahead thinking we're out keeping up with the current culture when we're actually sprinting out of His presence
Powerful! Very true.
Peace of grace is 3 mph not 50 mph
Exactly
Amen.
Beautifully said brother
Was thinking about pulling an all nighter, then this video notification popped up. I guess here I have my answer 😁
Jessi Ph all nighters aren’t bad in themselves, but you have to think if it’s in line with God’s will. Are you working all night mainly to increase material wealth and success for its sake? Or are you working all night to serve God Better, to be able to provide for your family? Whatever we do, let us always put God first. Work shouldn’t replace God as the center of our lives.
😂😂😂😂😂
You need to make more videos like this because you are so gifted
Love this word, I think it’s something we all need to hear! I think sometimes if we walk with Jesus at His pace, we can actually accomplish MORE for His Kingdom than we can do running full speed on our own!!
Michael Dorgan absolutely!
A new book AND spoken word?? Let’s go!
Amen brother! The Gary V culture is so insidiously destructive
Mark Kennedy 😂😂😂 nah
It’s all about the individual’s well being. If hustle brings you closer to that then great. If not, even better.
Mark Kennedy, a side of it is, no doubt. The idea that you have to produce like mad and work like crazy in order to be “happy” - I would say IS destructive. Because the trade-off (many times) is less time for family, hobbies, personal time, etc. But then again, Gary V speaks to a very specific audience, albeit, an apparently large one. And that demographic (of which I’m not really a part of) is populated by people who seem have a sincere desire to create things, be their own boss, and be financially secure (or “get rich”) eventually. That, in and of itself could become very toxic because therein lies the idea that things/money/busyness automatically ushers in contentment/happiness - and it just doesn’t. Scores of stories out there where ultra-successful people describe gut-wrenching emptiness amidst riches, power, and success. I’m rambling probably a bit, but I guess what I’m trying to say is that Gary V’s audience is largely comprised of wanna’ be entrepreneurs (and I don’t mean that in a bad way) who can’t NOT be busy. It’s part of their industrious makeup. So, in order to be “at peace” with themselves, they HAVE to create, push forward, and make things. But there must must MUST be a balance of stillness and productivity, otherwise, all you’re working for (family, peace, happiness) becomes eternally elusive and impossible to catch. Even Gary V himself sometimes talks about acquaintances & friends of his who are insanely happy with their work / life balance making $40k per year. And that’s perfectly okay, in my mind. Anyway, I know you didn’t ask for this reply Mark, but your comment sparked a thought in me and I couldn’t NOT write it down. Lol.
Grace & Peace friend.
Mark Kennedy BINGO MY BROTHER
@Mark Kennedy. When you live in a country where unemployment is at 29%, where many qualified people are being laid-off then your comment becomes obsolete.
Being condescending with the wrong attitude is not godliness brother.
The "Gary V" culture or people with an entrepreneurial drive comes about for many different reasons. In my case and many like me, its not necessarily about chasing money. Although generating wealth is a side effect. Sometimes it is driven by need. The need or desire to create your own space in the world in which you do what you love and happen to make money at the same time. Does it honor God? Depends on what is driving the person. Not everything that honors God is done with that as its primary intent.
However, if your hearts desire is to honor Him in all you do then it follows that what you do will consciously or inadvertently honor Him. If you are walking in the "flow of grace" then will that not be a part of the result? If the angels can't judge intent then who is man that we do this on a daily basis.
I think this video will do more harm than good when the primary message is misconstrued. I think Jeff is referring to those who are chasing money and not the glory of God. Hustle for the sake of hustle is dangerous, but when God has given you the opportunity and what you are doing is done with the right mindset and intent, then how is God not glorified?
Be blessed
WOW 😮 perfect timing for what I am going through!! We have to prioritize our alone time with God and taking a sabbath day
I spent the majority of my life overworking. Last year my health deteriorated and I realised that it was because I had been living at the speed of light. I left my full time teaching job last year and now do supply and tutoring. I am so much happier now as I'm learning to slow down. My mind doesn't feel overwhelmed now. I'm still recovering but I'm finally on the right track. A very powerful and much needed message Jeff as we live in a culture of busyness that is dangerous to our mental and physical health. We must learn to slow down and spend time with God if we want peace, good health and live in God's plan for us.
I've needed this for a while now. Thank you, Jefferson. You inspired me before, and you inspire me now. Thank you.
I am literally almost in tears because this has been on my heart so heavy for the past few years. Our culture is obsessed with this idol called hustle. Like you said we glorify it, we Instagram it, we brag about it in our music, etc. Meanwhile, our families suffer, our relationships are gone, we get tired, and then we feel shamed because the the culture we live in says that if we are not hustling enough then we are not successful. I love how Jesus never rushed anything. Thank you for writing this, and I cannot wait to read.
Dezzy Yates and we measure ourselves up to an unattainable goal. Always falling short and somehow we project that on our relationship with God. That is some good insight!
PREACH! It’s time we ditched “busy” as the status symbol of choice. Excited for this! Thanks for all you do! You were definitely a big inspiration for my channel, something I’ll always be grateful for.
Austin Suggs amen!
I just finished reading your book. I have to say I've never read anything quite like it. The honesty and transparency was very refreshing. Thank you for taking the time to write it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope you write another book very soon. Thanks again! God bless!
So EXCITED for this book ! So relevant 🙌🏼
Oh my goodness I needed this. I almost forgot today that I have to go with His pace. No wonder I had anxiety that I had to hurry and get things done to reach a certain goal a few months from now. In His timing. Thank you so much!
I was literally like where has Jeff been and watching old videos....
Exactly!!! We need to slow down enough to hear (sense in our spirit) the direction in which God wants us to go in. Otherwise we will have wasted MUCH more time & energy than necessary. We live in a "microwave society" in which everyone wants "it" NOW (success, finances, acclaim, power, fame, etc, etc, etc), but God has more of the speed of a slow cooker (on low lol) instead. Anything GOOD is worth waiting for, & God weeds out the insincere by taking us from victory to victory at a slower pace. I used to be frustrated about His pace, but I now realize it's His Grace & Protection that's the reason behind it. No good parent would let their 3 year old to eat an ENTIRE cake in one sitting, because they know that it would only hurt them. God is the same way with us. If He allowed us to get everything at once we'd get hurt too. Not only that, but we wouldn't appreciate it NEARLY as much if He did. There's something about working, pressing, & striving from glory to glory that gives us a DEEP appreciation for the blessings when we get them. He wants us to be blessed not for the blessings to destroy us. Thank God that His Thoughts & Ways are Higher than ours. I'm not saying that I like it all the time either, but I KNOW He's been right EVERY single time!!! 💜💜💜🙏
Powerful video 💯
Omg this is me
Always on the grid
Lord forgive me, help me in this hustle culture.
Thank u
It's all of us and I think about this very thing a lot. Lord forgive all of us.
Shut up
Matt God bless you.
DUDE! I'm so excited for you and for THIS! I'm doing a huge study on Sabbath and rest right now and I can't wait to add this book to the list! Praying for the launch, hope it all goes well.
Check out "Holy in Christ" by Andrew Murray
so good to see a video...I don’t really read so it’s nice to get video content from Jeff
BOOM BABY LETS GO!!! WALK!
You need to "hustle" to be the best at your game. Always willing to put in that extra rep, that's what separates you from others.
Colossians 3:23-24 tells us that, Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
I think what he was trying to say is that you don't need to hustle on your own and instead trusting God and living for Him instead of your desires and pleasures? (:
Jerin George 👍🏼
"Working for God not for human masters" read that line again
I've followed Jefferson for years .. it's been a while since I've seen a video like this from him. This message speaks to me on so many levels. Precisely what I've been talking about for weeks..I cant wait.
i just remembered he existed, where did he go?
🙌🏽 I have stepped away from things that glorify the “mom hustle” because I didn’t like what it was doing to me. I had to look to God for guidance on whether or not I should keep grinding and busting my butt “for my family” and “financial freedom.” Thank you!! Can’t wait to get a copy of the book.
Jessica Peoples so what did the Lord Minister to you? Because I went through the same thing...
I was doing my kingdom assignment but I was too broke...
I thought that God would "tangibly" provide but I guess I was daydreaming.
I decided to let the ministry go so I can take care of things but I feel so guilty and so sad. I want to do what he showed and called me but being broke is such a "curse" because I can't pay rent and school fees...
Uuurrggghhhh!!! I'm so stuck right now...
I hustled for 10 years doing online marketing. And while it is profitable, I never felt any success or happiness. I've tried to return to the hustle after finding my faith in Allah. It leaves me angry, frustrated and rushing around needing something done by x date. It's not rewarding. The money might be amazing, but everything else around you crumbles away.
I married a Norwegian, I learned their culture which is literally to hell with the hustle because nothing goes fast there! But you are right! When I learned to slow down, I was so, so much happier!
THIS IS INCREDIBLE! very excited for the book! THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS!
The Parable of the Talents is about the hustle in my opinion.
Amen Brother
Meanwhile, bills (including a lack of affordable housing) continue to rise at a rapid rate. For some people, not hustling means being out on the street or one paycheck away from being on the edge of poverty. Some people have kids that depend on them for basic needs - I see it all the time.
What’s the solution, then? Perhaps your book addresses this.
i was wondering the same thing. I am basically "hustling" and still live with family cause i cant afford to live on my own. I dont understand why some christians sit on their butts and say God will take care of it. Sure God can take care of it but you have to take action and not be lazy.
I would say, you can still hustle but with a purpose. Is your hustle trying to get you something? Are you happy with your hustle? If you're hustling for something that you know won't bring you happiness, don't do it.
Thank you for sharing this truth Jeff. It’s always been my thought; we are not called to a life of hustle. There is more to life than all of that. I can’t wait to read the book.
This video came at the right time. I have a tendency to be a workaholic, but in the end it never really makes you happy how much you get work you put in.
Keep up the not hustle, bro!!! Excited for the book.
Love this, Jefferson! Thanks for the wisdom you so creatively share! Looking forward to checking out the book.
I needed this so much. I pre-ordered this book a while ago because I just knew, I have to read it. I'm so exited and it feels like reading the book will be one of the first steps to stop the hustle! Thank you for your faithfulness and for sharing your experiences with God ☺️
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
7 It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
8 yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
9 How long will you lie there, you sluggard?
When will you get up from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest-
11 and poverty will come on you like a thief
and scarcity like an armed man.
Didn't you hustle when you worked on that book? I'm kidding this is amazing thanks Jeff you tha man.
I so NEEDED to hear this , I need to slow DOWN . WOW!!!
Good to see you again! Great video! I was expecting a spoken word but it's all good. Look forward to buying that book when I can man. Always felt like I'm trying to work too much!
"love slows down" that resonates can't wait to get a copy and start reading
Does anyone else notice how 95% of people driving on the road are speeding...... all to catch those few extra minutes which easily can be lost of they hit a traffic jam anyways.
Yeah I noticed today when someone ran a red light and nearly took me and my daughter out.
Absolutely love this 🙌🏼
A friend just recommended your channel to me as inspiration for my own channel. Wow! You're gifted my friend!
This is really profound... I never looked at this that way... so profound.
glad to hear you say that Jeff Bethke... I could tell that you were a hustler from the very first video I ever saw of you.... sounds like you're preaching to yourself more than anyone else! you're projecting....GODSPEED
Lol that's quite the assumption.
@@angelaknox "woe to you and cursed are you who laugh now for you shall mourn and weep later"... Jesus Christ... Luke chapter 6 nkjv
Boom so true, can’t wait to read it 🚨
Needed to hear this.
I don't know... I kinda disagree. If you want to achieve big things there is hard work required. Every successful person (financially and personally) I know 'hustled' to get where they are including Jeff. Yes, you can do that at a slow pace, but I don't think it's necessarily bad to go hard for a short amount of time.
Andy Jamerson hey Andy! Just quick reminder to note this is a book trailer which means it really says as minimally as possible, and is only about 120 seconds long :) I don’t think anyone would think me saying we need to rethink what the hustle and busy spirit is doing to our lives means we shouldn’t work hard or exert effort in any fashion. Jesus himself obviously worked hard and had an enormous impact more than anyone ever will. So clearly he’s showing us something and that his non anxious non hurried presence actually can accomplish the most, not the least. But I do hear ya and appreciate the feedback. I just know to get something ‘exactly right’ in the internet these days is near impossible because you just can’t say everything and all qualifications or nuance in a 2 minute video. That’s what books are for 😉
@@JeffersonBethkepage Sounds good. Really excited ❤
You have to work in life in order to get to the end point.
The Israelites when put into slavery at the very hands of Egypt (reincarnated as the United States) were enslaved and PUT to work for a TIME until GOD freed them through Moses.
Nothing wrong with work, it’s just not the end goal.
Excellent!
So excited, your books have helped me so much in my 'walk' with Christ!
I just finished read your book "This thing called Christianity". It is a blessing. Thank you so much. Don't stop writing
God Bless you Brother! A most succinct definition of “God Speed”. Well done!
OH man, throwing it back to spoken word, Bethke! Loving it.
Have always been a fan of the work you do! This is a dope book and I know preachers including myself struggle with this. I think there’s a cool intersection
I just realised that it’s been a year you didn’t upload a new video... is everything okay?
*I love how throws that “God walks slower than you and He enjoys it” not. I’m convicted* 😂 this was a word 🙏🙏
Yea but how’d Jeff get to the position where he made a book about this? His hustle. Reeks of contradictions to me.
So true. Walk with Him, not run ahead into absolute disaster!
If Jesus is walking at 3 miles an hour, why do talk at a 100 miles an hour? 🙂
I am Gali, in the year 1980 I lost all my hopes, I became a thief and club dancer. At that time I heard about Christ, the Lord spoke with me though the Scripture.
JOHN 14:6 “I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER BUT BY ME.”
I surrendered my life to Lord Jesus and confessed that He is the only Lord and died for my sins to deliver me from all my sins (Karma). When I totally surrendered my life to the Lord He has delivered me from evil spirits, which suffered me about 6 years. I became a new person in Christ. I love Bible so much and started memorizing the scriptures.
By the grace of God I have memorized Five Thousand (5,000) Verses from the Holy Bible. Every week I also remember all the verses. Morning time I remember about 1500 verses for praise, worship and prayer. (Including 100 Psalms). This practice helps me to grow strong in the Lord and also to help others for the glory of the Lord. John 14:6 is my favorite verse; I preach this word to many unsaved people that they may find the peace in Jesus Christ because He is the Lord of all.

Literally the best most life changing book I’ve read!!
I watched this at 2x speed and got really confused.
Cheers for giving us permission mate, really kind of you, How much is your book again?
Awesome! I'm only seeing this now but I believe God brought me back to your channel and made me see this at the perfect time!
You're incredible. I love how you're always thinking and analyzing what God has to say and how our culture compares to that. You are shedding such light on life-giving/life-threatening topics and are inspiring generations. God is using you in amazing ways. So excited to read this book and for anything you put out in the future!
I wish I could give more than one thumbs up!!!
Good info but you do speak a bit quickly! I just found it a bit ironic.
Awesome words, truth we all need to hear.
God bless you Jeff for rising up to reach your generation. ♥️
This quite possibly the best book advertisement ive ever seen
Bro!
This spoke to me, thank you!
I’m so excited for this book!!
i love this! Let's walk at the pace of Grace. #Gracelikeaflood
Hello we hope all is well and yes to hell with the hustle. God's got your back . he will always be with us whether we are walking at 3mph or 30 mph
SO crazy that COVID happen and made most people calm down with the HUSTLE and actually spend time with their families
*Dr. John can bring your ex for a second chance. He was the one who helped me restore my 5 year broken relationship by bringing my ex back. Also, Dr. John always keeps up with his words. I highly recommend that you seek his help from now on and the most interesting of all is that him do all kinds of spiritual work, you can read it*
Love you brother, thank you for this
Crazy, I work 12.25 but it is actually 13 hours. It is shift work but damn it is so busy, takes one day off to recuperate. I so look forward to slowing down on my days off!
I missed you brother 👏👏👏👏 awesome reminder! Thanks
Convicted. I was taught that hustling was a value.
Where are the English subtitles? As a hearing impaired follower, I’d love to see that accommodation.
Taylor Arthur need someone to write it down for you?
Are you on instagram? I
I am over rested and lazy though
Why did you stop making videos?
Love your vids brotha
Love it!! Cant wait to read!!
So apt and timely, been learning this the past year or so and it's continually coming to my life. Psalms 46:10 "Be still and know I am God" has continued to show up for me. Thank you for this
hi Jeff, I just want to say sorry, sorry, if i was discouraging when i messaged you on youtube saying you talked to much. I love You!! Im a guy also!! Lol you cant tell cuz of text. also, remember jesus said do what you did at first in revelation so please dont ever stop making videos..get creative!!
Amen to that.
Hey I just saw the real life podcast where you said you don't talk that much accept when vlogging. Ha sorry, I just know sometimes I feel like talking a lot brings trouble
Mate you are the man!
Nice reminder, life is not work.
The race is not given to the swift nor to the strong but to those who endure...
Yes Id much rather live a life of endurance, spiritually as well as physically and mentally.

That wasn't vague at all Jeff... kinda makes your message sound like stop trying so hard... go slower... that doesn't jive well with any employer.
Lets do a project together! 🎥
3 miles per hour is still kinda fast to be walking....
WOW Truth
