I recently got diagnosed with a glioblastoma tumour in my spinal cord too, I'm fifteen. This family is so lovely and I'm really glad that I found someone who went through a similar situation despite it being horrible. Rest in peace, you have an amazing soul
Jessica said in this video that God says, "Watch how I can make this beautiful." I feel I just did. What a blessing of love you have all shared. Thank you.
I am going to share this with absolutely everybody I know. Thank you for your character, and for your love for each other and for God. This needs to be shared. I will do all I can to help your story to be told! Grace & Peace
God chose Ryan to be an inspiration for those of us watching his story. This couple is so happy and have such positive attitudes when the majority of us would throw pity parties and hate the world. I leave this video feeling inspired. God bless him and his wife and their beautiful children.
yodathedeathshadow Did you even bother to watch the video or did you just go straight to the comments because you knew this was a God fearing man who shared his testimony?
nah I watched it, good video. Too bad you religious people all sound the same. "He's the chosen one! God will prevail!" You make everything about god... it gets annoying
I asked my four-year old son tonight if there was anything he wanted to pray about for our nightly prayers. He said he wanted us to pray for Ryan who is sick.
I came across this story years ago, till this day I still think of this man. A man I never met, or knew while he lived. How can a man and his family be in a strangers thoughts after all this time? Guess that's what a legacy is, God rest him and God bless his family always
I love to see a couple involved with our Lord. I'm a huge follower of Christ and hearing your story is so inspiring. Ryan now rests in the house of the Lord. God bless your family and may your soul rest peacefully under God's will. Your ministry will go on. All my Love~💓
God bless to your family. Makes me so happy when people become saved and know that we'll have eternal life with Jesus in Heaven.My prayers go out to you.
Wow, what an incredible story. God puts us through trials so that we may grow stronger in our faith. God was, is, and will forever be perfect. As humans, we oppose perfection. We sinned against God and still do every day...so why do we deserve life at all? We deserve death. God is gracious enough to let us live on His earth. Ryan saw the big picture and so does his wife. I pray that the Grassroots Conspiracy church plant is growing and spreading the Gospel.
Such a inspiration-both of them. Faith can do amazing things. I wish I knew the answers to all of life's questions, but I've realized we may never know. One thing I do know is that Jesus will be with you with whatever life throws your way.
One of the definitions of Conspiracy is "The action of plotting or conspiring". We see ourselves as a community of people who are experimenting in plotting goodness in and around a specific neighborhood. The good news (gospel) that Jesus speaks of, as I understand it, is incredibly counter cultural and different. My belief is that it often invites you to oppose positions of power and authority and to wage war (only with weapons of love, peace, generosity, non-violence, and kindness)...
All men die, but not all men truly live. G-d has a purpose for every one of us, no matter what age we get called back. You could be hit by a bus tomorrow, so don't sit there and think it can't happen to you. If you knew you only had a week to live, could you honestly say that you did your best, and that you have no regrets? Have you forgiven everyone, and hugged your loved ones? Each day matters.
Jessica and Ryan are such a beautiful souls. This is so painful to deal with this, but their message of God’s salvation… so true, so necessary to be said.
The disrespect in the comments on this video are insane.. I can’t even fathom how anybody could say anything bad about this family? Are they supposed to be dwelling on this terrible situation they were handed? Crying and depressed 24/7? They had two children to take care of.. RIP to this man. I hope his god does exist for him.
I am so amazed by their courage and strength it's just mind blowing! This is a true inspiration story...wow! God bless you all...you are beautiful people! God is good every day!❤❤❤
Great, inspiring video. I've never seen anyone so positive about a situation like this. And this might sound like a strange question- But your kids India and Jones...they wouldn't happen to be named after Indiana Jones would they? :)
(PART TWO) ...against that which brings destruction in the lives of individuals and communities. Additionally I love the mustard seed parable that Jesus uses because it teaches us that the kingdom of God grows in weed-like fashion. Or, in other words, it is a subversive movement, one that does not use the power of this world but instead the undercurrents of radical love. So we chose conspiracy 'cause it seemed to fit our identity.
Man I wish I could feel or be like this beautiful couple. I'm sorry I'm not happy this beautiful couole had to go through this horrible thing. And I wish all the love and strength to this family to heal. But I just can't rap my dam head around excepting that. If I had cancer like him. I know that I wouldn't be able.to change it. I know that it wouldnt be able to disappear with drugs or treatment. But to find that death would be aoon around the corner that soon after diagonis. Wow. I would totally freak out and my world would soon beneath me..and I know that I couldnt rely on a good god after that. I would not be talking like that it is not ok...i hate life. And I have had some F't up shit happen to me but this ?! My shit dont seen that bad...thank you for telling your story. Ryan may you know.that your family loved you more then you knew. And sore across the open sky. You will never be forgotten but yet your soul will be adriift. And thank younfor showing how strong you can be in the most darkest of times. God why...?
Thank you for sharing your story , IAM very sadden for you and your family , but I also believe God is always sad too when we die . Hold on tight to our Heavenly Father and know he has you and he will protect you from all evil !! May God give you peace and understanding and comfort in your time of need . Sending you and family lots of love ❤️❤️❤️😇😇😇😇🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 and lots of prayers
I wonder if the prognoses would have changed had the clinic gotten him iin for the MRI sooner than 6 weeks. Doubtful of course, but still when there is questions of this nature one would think they might expedite diagnoses. Lovely family
I just came across this video around four in the morning. Can you tell her just breaking my heart. Is your husband still alive. God Bless your Family. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Sharon, thank you so much for your kind words. He did pass away within a year of this video. His memorial service in Vancouver had to be held in a hotel ballroom because so many hundreds of people they touched attended. I know he would be glad that you were touched and inspired. Warm Regards,
Does anybody out there know how and what Jessica and the kids are doing now, one year aft Ryan's life her ended and his new life began? I am on Facebook, under this name, send a friend request , note its about Woods family please. Thank you.
If god is real, then why does cancer even matter? 20-30 years in this world, then get cancer, then spend one trillion years in heaven. Cancer seems like it's not really a big deal...if god is real.
Keep your destructive thoughts to yourself. Don`t you see that this man is desperately trying to hang on to something. You want to rob him of his last hope? Nobody knows for sure whether god exists or not by the way.
I just cannot understand the mentality/justification behind mocking/dismissing/disrespecting/insulting/ridiculing/etc. _a dying man's_ source of hope/comfort/peace, and/or the inspirational message he wants to share. How miserably empty and bleak a soul must be to see nothing untoward about it. It's not only rude and uncalled for; it's just plain _mean._ :(
So, help me understand; the purpose of life is looking forward to dying to receive ALL good things? Then why would their god create this beautiful world? Most, not all religions believe the afterlife is THE life....I don’t get it...I personally respect their believes, but my god is Spinoza's god, the one Einstein loved.
53840mp - I'm with you man. I'm not religious, I suppose I could say I'm spiritual but I'm agnostic. Idk if there is or isn't a God, but if there is... well, he's just downright cruel. Why would god take a good man away from his wife & 2 children? He deserved a longer life, he deserved being able to see his kids grow up, go to college, get married and have his grandchildren, to grow old with his wife. Yeah, it doesn't make sense.
@@aurorawolfe6060 you all have free will and everything isn't going to be lovely in life. You all think he's there making sure bad things happen to good people is really silly. And for him to interfere when someone's dying ...it's rare but it does happen.
It is so creepy to listen to these two talking about this man who has three to six months to live, but they both have smiles on their faces and show no other emotion
It gave him hope and strength and the will to share their journey it gave him comfort and peace.....how do i know cause i listened without judging.....it's quite simple believe or don't...
I recently got diagnosed with a glioblastoma tumour in my spinal cord too, I'm fifteen. This family is so lovely and I'm really glad that I found someone who went through a similar situation despite it being horrible. Rest in peace, you have an amazing soul
You are in my thoughts and prayers 💗🦋
This said you posted 9 months ago, how are you? My heart goes out to you. You are so young. Prayers.
You in my prayers, how are you doing?
❤️🙏
Lucy I’m sorry you have to go through this fight fight fight girl. You are on my prayer list. Do you have a channel on TH-cam?
Beautiful man and woman. I'm so sad he didn't live and they didn't get to grow old together. I hope she and their children are doing well now. LOVE.
Just beautiful, lovely people...thanks for sharing your lives with us.
Jessica said in this video that God says, "Watch how I can make this beautiful."
I feel I just did. What a blessing of love you have all shared. Thank you.
What a very strong person. RIP Ryan. Thank you for your video.

always bringing god into everything...
yodathedeathshadow Are you just trolling or do you have a point?
no point, just annoyed to constantly see the brainwashed bringing god up every time in comments
yodathedeathshadow
Did you even bother to watch the video or did you just go straight to the comments because you knew this was a God fearing man who shared his testimony?
nah I watched it, good video. Too bad you religious people all sound the same. "He's the chosen one! God will prevail!" You make everything about god... it gets annoying
wow...they have such positive attitude for their situation. so inspirational....God bless them
R.I.P. Ryan. You will forever be remembered
I asked my four-year old son tonight if there was anything he wanted to pray about for our nightly prayers. He said he wanted us to pray for Ryan who is sick.
You and your family are in my prayers Ryan and have been since the day I met you guys. Thank you very much for having the guts to share your story.
Amen! Victory over death. We have eternal life in Jesus.
I came across this story years ago, till this day I still think of this man. A man I never met, or knew while he lived. How can a man and his family be in a strangers thoughts after all this time? Guess that's what a legacy is, God rest him and God bless his family always
Well said. ❤️
Stories like these makes me keep on going on. God bless you! RIP beautiful soul beautiful man..!
Thanks for sharing.
Ryan and Jess, thank you for being a real example of what living in faith means. Thank you! Gob bless your beautiful family

You two are amazing. God bless you both.

Beautiful ppl..
Thank you for the beautiful testimony, Ryan was truly a beautiful person.
this is an incredible story and really a blessing to hear this family talk. God bless.
God doesn't let you go brother! He calls you back home!! God must have needed another Angel when he called you back Ryan!
Such a inspiration-both of them. Faith can do amazing things. I wish I knew the answers to all of life's questions, but I've realized we may never know. One thing I do know is that Jesus will be with you with whatever life throws your way.

God didn't let you go, Ryan. God called you back :)

🕯R.I.P. Mr. Ryan Woods 🙏🏽
I am so amazed by their courage and strength it's just mind blowing! This is a true inspiration story...wow! God bless you all...you are beautiful people! God is good every day!❤❤❤
When he said "Jesus Movement" my heart praised God!! Amen. I'm so thankful He is saved. That's all that matters :)
ryan died
God bless you for sharing, you are extremely brave. There is definitely beauty and inspiration in your story.....
Great, inspiring video. I've never seen anyone so positive about a situation like this.
And this might sound like a strange question- But your kids India and Jones...they wouldn't happen to be named after Indiana Jones would they? :)
I think their story is awesome but they do over talk their scenario. I just lost my mom so I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND CANCER. Its a positive incentive
Faith is a blessing.And it's so poweful.
(PART TWO) ...against that which brings destruction in the lives of individuals and communities.

Beautiful family...
You both are beautiful people, God bless
Great couple. Love your faith.
Just watched this video. ..9 years later!...are there any updates on the family? 🙏

No it wouldn't

Didn’t he make it a lot long than he was told he was going to?
Does anybody out there know how and what Jessica and the kids are doing now, one year aft Ryan's life her ended and his new life began? I am on Facebook, under this name, send a friend request , note its about Woods family please. Thank you.
As a Christian I struggle with healing because so many amazing people die I struggle with that
Riddled with cancer and still thanking god. Talk about battered wife syndrome. RIP, man
If god is real, then why does cancer even matter? 20-30 years in this world, then get cancer, then spend one trillion years in heaven. Cancer seems like it's not really a big deal...if god is real.
OF COURSE GOD IS REAL!
Keep your destructive thoughts to yourself. Don`t you see that this man is desperately trying to hang on to something. You want to rob him of his last hope? Nobody knows for sure whether god exists or not by the way.
Patti crabtree absolutely!
I just cannot understand the mentality/justification behind mocking/dismissing/disrespecting/insulting/ridiculing/etc. _a dying man's_ source of hope/comfort/peace, and/or the inspirational message he wants to share. How miserably empty and bleak a soul must be to see nothing untoward about it. It's not only rude and uncalled for; it's just plain _mean._ :(
Amen.
Poor guy. Finding out you have a rare and terminal cancer is the worst feeling ever. And no one understands or even can. It's completely awful.
WOW...thanks for sharing.
Playing for you!
rip ryan
Really tragic. So is how brainwashed they are.
But I hope Jess and the kids are doing alright several years later.
Your so right.
Chemical free? Hmmm, no such thing, unless you’re in a bubble? What ya breathing up there?
Goes to show cancer doesn't care about how healthy you are etc if cancer wants you cancer gets you
She needed to just shut up! She interrupted wayyyyy too much. It was his health situation to share. Let the man talk!!
So, help me understand; the purpose of life is looking forward to dying to receive ALL good things? Then why would their god create this beautiful world? Most, not all religions believe the afterlife is THE life....I don’t get it...I personally respect their believes, but my god is Spinoza's god, the one Einstein loved.
53840mp - I'm with you man. I'm not religious, I suppose I could say I'm spiritual but I'm agnostic. Idk if there is or isn't a God, but if there is... well, he's just downright cruel.

you can weave anything to make god look good.
I must have been mistaken in thinking an understanding and belief in both science and religion were possible...
ONLY USING CAPS FOR ME TO SEE BETTER - WONDER WHAT KIND OF BEAUTY IS THERE IS THE STORY OF A CHILD WHO IS ABUSED, TORTURED & MURDERED..
+unfitskip shes not u are ohhhhh
inappropriate emotions
emotionally inappropriate
It is so creepy to listen to these two talking about this man who has three to six months to live, but they both have smiles on their faces and show no other emotion
could be how they could cope with it.
Natural and healthy yet what are those tattoos made of?
Tattoos can apparently get real cancerous after awhile and it's important to wear sunscreen if you have tattoos
this God stuff is crazy.
It gave him hope and strength and the will to share their journey it gave him comfort and peace.....how do i know cause i listened without judging.....it's quite simple believe or don't...
