There is a difference between aggressive and assertive. Aggressive is negative, with fear and worry, not trusting. On the other hand, assertive is the opposite. It's confidence, positive, believing that anything is possible.
Hey guys, love your podcasts soooo much. I have watched you all for 3 weeks straight. Dr. Tom love your wisdom on First Century knowledge. Sam is hilarious. Now, Italian and Spanish very are similar. I watched your other video. So what Atticus said may have been right. They do great research. Secondly, Shahar Issac aka Simon-Peter is a real Israeli Soldier. He gets time off to film the show. So it’s why he is so cut and a beautifully sculpted body. He’s a great guy. There’s your reason. Pray he stays safe.
I love that after he said, "I forgive you" he follows with, "it's forgotten". Forgetting is so much harder than forgiving! Yet it is so important if we are to move on peacefully.
I love that final moment of Peter publicly forgiving Matthew, n declaring it to everyone... that single moment showed beyond a doubt why he is the rock, why he was made the leader n foundation!!!! He cemented his title n position right then n there!!!!! Love that scene so much!!! Now, please do not make us wait a week or more for the next episode!!!! I soooo cannot wait to see yalls reaction to 3 & 4!!!!
I visited Ceasarea Philippi back in 2019. There's cave situated pretty far back in the rocks with a large boulder inside, and the stones are stained with a blood/rust color. According to our tour guide, the people would sacrifice their infant children in this cave to appease Pan or Baal's wrath. I remember him saying that it was this specific place that was known as "The Mouth of Hell". It is here where Jesus renames Simon as Peter and tells him "on this rock I will build my Church". To this day, I still see that cave whenever I read Matthew 16. Jesus being identified as the Christ here is huge, not only because of his role as the Messiah, but his victory over death is declared right in front of Satan's stronghold. Wow!
Regarding Simon Peter's reaction to Matthew asking for forgiveness, I believe there are two things you have missed. (1) Peter started softening towards and respecting Matthew from their time seeking Mary. Then throughout the show as he led the group and made sure everyone was taken care of, he included Matthew. Even at the campfire the night before, he made specific mention of being sure Matthew had his place to sleep prepared. So it would seem in his heart there had developed a turning of forgiveness, or more like he moved on from that, but he never really faced or dealt with it head on, more like it was something that existed like that annoying hum in the background. (2) Human psychology. When Matthew apologized, it caused a resurfacing of all that hurt and pain. It's easy to spiritualize what we *should* do, but we need to see through the eyes of grace, that wounds can be so deep that you can't just brush the pain aside that easily. Peter *needed* that time to wrestle with his feelings and his pain before he could make the choice to extend forgiveness. We are often too harsh with people, thinking they have to jump through the right spiritual hoop at a moment's notice. But that's not how we are built. I'm glad the script of The Chosen played it out this way.
I completely agree. Because Matthew is such a sympathetic character, many viewers see him as the victim. Because Simon is such a forceful character few have sympathy for him. I believe Simon gave more to the relationship than many give him credit for. Matthew, though knowing he almost destroyed Simon's life, played the victim and expected Simon to suck it up forgive him and move on. In Christianity we harm people by expecting instant add water and stir repentence and many end up stuffing their feelings and emotions in such an unhealthy way. If you step on my foot accidentally of course I can forgive you easily. But if you maliciously step on my foot, I have a more to process. What's most important is the desire to obey even when it is hard. I hope Grafted sees that (as 2 people who have leadership roles they have to counsel more deeply)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the Jewish world and customs with us! It is always a pleasure to watch your videos, I learn so much from you guys! God bless!
Thank you for this video. "That's leadership " captures my heart. So true! Humility, forgiveness and moving forward together in Christ. This is true life! ❤
I am so grateful for finding your channel! Beautiful job today and further enhancing The Chosen and our audience understanding. So many will be getting the Jewishness of the faith not only from this landmark show, but from you two. As a Messianic myself I thank you!
I'm reading "Sitting at the feet of Rabbi Jesus" and I feel like I'm gaining a better understanding of the Jewishness of Jesus. I would recommend it to everyone.
The first four episodes of this season brought me to tears. The first episode I watered up when Andrew found out about John The Baptist, the second episode I watered up when Peter forgave Matthew, the third episode I watered up when Rema was killed, the fourth episode I teared up when Thomas was trying to stop crying over Rema. But also when Jesus watched the red grapes turn into wine that looked like blood. When Gaius comforted Jesus, that was it for me. I felt jealous of Gaius for doing what I would have done in a New York minute.
As someone who struggles with the sin of unrighteous anger and holding a grudge, I found Matthew's last few sentences in his apology to Peter very hard to receive. It went from heartfelt to sounding almost trite very quickly. Peter's choice to walk away actually showed incredible growth. The Simon of two years ago would have boxed Matthew's ears. And, for Peter to return and offer forgiveness to Matthew within a day... I was really blown away by it. It made the reconciliation so much more powerful and believable. It was convicting for some of us whom (in the abstract, of course) find extending forgiveness a challenge.
Yes. It also shows that people can apologize and mean it, but not do it perfectly. It's up to us to receive it in the spirit it's given or withhold forgiveness until we hear exactly what we want to hear. There are no perfect people.
I've heard the apostle's were teenager's! In act's they sure seem to be! The very 1st bible study I went to amazed me & was hard for me to fathem! I wasn't born again until I was 28! I've come to understand the disiple's more threw the Chosen & your teaching's! So thankful!
When you hold grudges against one person in a group, the negative energy and therefore doorway to evil, can be felt on the whole group. Also, when you forgive, it elevates your soul and the group can feel the positivity.
I so appreciate your insights! Seeing the cultural and linguistic meanings in Scripture brings such a richness and depth of meaning to the words we so often just skim over. Thank you, both for sharing! ❤
The opening segments this season have been phenomenal! And Roumie excellently portrayed Jesus experiencing the vision of Yochanan the Immerser by conveying several thoughts and emotions within a few seconds: joy, grief, anticipation, determination, expectation, anguish and relief. He's great!
my family would always take paper supplies- TP, paper plates, napkins, paper towels, plastic utensil, trash bags, different size baggies & coffee, bottled water to the family home that everyone always ended up at. It was always welcomed & things that they don't always think about at the time.
You can forgive someone from a distance if they don't repent. Forgiveness doesn't mean treating the relationship like it's fine if someone is constantly sinning against you. One thing that helped me to forgive those who sinned against me without repentance is telling myself, "This person must be so lost and so far away from God that they don't even realize they sinned against me."
I asked my pastor one time about this, and he said there was a difference between forgiveness and reconciliation. If you had a roommate and he stole everything you had, forgiveness is erasing the debt owed to you. Reconciliation is giving him the new key. We are called to forgive always, but not necessarily to reconciliation
15:11 honestly one of my FAVOURITE moments, Because guys, IT'S TRUE!!!!!!!!!!~ We only say we don't want anything to be modest, elegant, and beautiful as a Lady~ Not because we don't really want or expect something that would be really special to us~!!
The funniest part of this is when Peter is instructing Thomas about the gift part and the the Gifted guys are nodding and shaking their heads at the same time. 😂😂😂. They're doing this from personal experience. Loool
The distance between Capernaum and Caesarea Philippi is about 60 kilometers. The typical walking speed of a person is 5 kilometers per hour, but even if they walked 4 kilometers per hour, they would reach Caesarea Philippi in about 15 hours without breaks and pauses. In reality, it was a two-day journey, taking into account those breaks and overnight camping.
As my husband of 40 years will attest Peter is totally right about her words not meaning what men think, like fine does not mean fine it means NOT fine lol I laughed so hard when Peter stepped in. It has been a running joke with us for decades. The forgiveness scene is my favorite scene ever, Shahar played it perfectly struggling with it up to the very moment of surrendering to it, made my heart melt.
When Caiphas showed up I was like 'WHOA he is old' then I remember wait a minute doesn't this guy have a father-in-law?! I cannot imagine someone older than this guy right now!
Great channel. I'm from the Eastern Orthodox church..( still so much I don't know or understand why..that's my weight to carry) Customs have changed now because of mixing multicultural, beliefs so on. Past custom, men didn't shave for 6 weeks, no tv, radio, music for the house the passed person lived in..the person was brought home where the family would wash and dress the deceased..lots more. I for one am glad things changed as it's a different time..as long as one lives honorable and best intentions. Love God, Jesus, Mama Mary forever Amen.🙏🌹♥️ Sorry long text...lol Stay safe.🙏
I hope they react to the grafted episode! (gentile centurion and servant). I love the Hanukkah/good Shepherd episode! It was great to watch as a gentile. So excited to see the livestream Sunday!
On the topic of the Binding and Loosing, there's an interesting lesson from the Hebrew that may have been well understood by the disciples: The words "bind" and "loose" may well have been variants of the words אסור and מותר (Assur and Muttar) Assur could mean any of these (or more): Bound, Forbidden, Captive Muttar, could similarly be: Loosed, Allowed, Liberated. There is a morning prayer Jews today still pray, Baruch Mattir Assurim (ברוך מתיר אסורים), which means "Blessed is the Liberator of Captives". This would very likely have been part of the linguistic context the disciples would have read this speech through.
Ahoj. You have fine understanding of context (greek mythology and biblical background). It is fascinating to listen how you explain it. I also was in greek and I liked the myths as fairy tales revealing few secrets to me. I am glad that someone else has interest in it and sees it not in conflict with Christianity, but sees christianity in context of it. Great. Appreciated. And also fine theme - not to be capturable by death through love to what Jesus is. Be well both.
I was watching a short of Mary returning to camp after she fell away. In that exchange, Jesus says, "I forgive you. It is over". The same thing Peter says. I just found that interesting.
I do wish you had shown the talk that Simon had with Jesus after Matthew asked for forgiveness. It is just so true that we often need Jesus’ help to be able to forgive and it is not easy. For all the complaints that people make about The Chosen, scenes like this are the reason why I love this show. And discussions like this video are why I love your channel.
One day I went down a rabbit hole and decided to google map everywhere they said they walked in Season 2 to try and figure out how much time had passed between events before I came to the conclusion that it's a show and time between stops requires suspension of disbelief on the part of the audience lol
Tom and Sam, Can you explain the scene when Jesus changing Simon’s name to Peter, the Rock. …then Jesus speaks about the Rock ? Can u clarity bc I use to be Catholic. Thanks
Okay, I admit, whenever you guys teach I have to take down notes! What is "thank you" in Jewish language? 😊😊😊 Thank you! BTW, first name of Derek Prince is "Peter".
This is just a burning that Thomas gave rhema a sundial as a marriage gift at the proposal when she dies I think the message which is hidden will be that when Jesus dies and is risen again she will be with him this is so exciting to me that Jesus will be bringing back the people that were in the paradise waiting for messiah to come he comes and brings them up and they there was thousands of people that were seen after Jesus rose again so I can't wait if they put this in the show
The Chosen should be praised for teaching super masculine men that it is okay to cry and hug other men. Doing so does not make you Gay and even if you are Gay God loves you. I go to a church that performs gay marriages.
Interesting how Caiaphas prophesied “not own his own”. John 11:49-52. Is this similar to Simon saying what he said at the gates of hell and Jesus said “you Simon did not say this of your own?
Peter means “ROCK”…and upon this rock (Peter) I will build my church. Which is exactly why Simon / Peter became our first Pope. Even Paul and Barnabas ran their thoughts (preaching methods / words) and ideas (inspired by the Holy Spirit) by Peter and the council set up by Peter. .
Shalom Shalom, To deny that Peter was seen as a leader within Messiah's community would be a mistake. But I think one thing this show should be teaching is that what we tend have been led to believe according to tradition may not line up with what scripture actually says. Yeshua asks "who do men say that I am?" His disciples literally give different answers based on what they have heard people say. Then He asks "who do 'you' say that I am?" Meaning, never minds what men have been saying. What has God revealed to you about me? And Simon, by faith answers, by faith what God had revealed to him based on what he has seen, and what scripture has said. To a point, the same approach must be taken even when it comes to answering questions like "who do we say Simon Peter was" as far as the papacy goes, among other traditions that men have taught throughout church history that scripture may actually disagree with, and there are quite a few traditionally taught things within the church that scripture does not agree with.
🙋🏾♀️ for the record, I like gift cards. Now, it depends on what kind of gift card it is. If it's to Home Depot or Petco or something that I would never ever use, then yeah a gift card would not be good. But you can't go wrong with an Amazon gift card. I will always find a use for that, and I will always thank you for it.
As a wife, I love gift cards lol. But it's hard to use them if the gift card doesn't come with the gift of time to use them (aka watching the kids while I use them).😀
Pray first! Then remember that God is so very eager to forgive you that the very first thing Jesus did when the world was created was die on the cross to seal your forgiveness. He is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world!! And forgive yourself as you forgive others, and be patient. Every time you start to feel the shame and guilt read the Bible and remember Philippians 4:8.
In fact the language most spoken was Greek that it was the "English" of that time. Latin was spoken by the authorities. Italians speak Italian and not latin.
This was just a side comment you made but I’ve always been curious why Job is often placed before Abraham. Wouldn’t Eliphaz the Temanite (Jobs friend) be a descendant of Esau based on Genesis 36? I would genuinely love to hear your thoughts.
I thought it was an apt setting where he renamed Simon into Peter The Rock, but again it was another scene where they severely watered down actually what Jesus said
Hi Abby, I've had this problem too. One thing that helped me was realising that I am not my own judge - judgement is the job of God alone. Because Jesus has paid the penalty for your sins - ALL of them,if you have trusted Jesus as your Redeemer and believe He is who He says He is, then God has declared you free from the penalty of sin. Can you agree in your heart, that Jesus's sacrifice was all that was necessary, sufficient? Have you turned away from the sin in that "certain area of your life"? I had to pray a prayer of repentance for trying to take the job of judgement off of God for myself! I had to LET GO of that and give it to God, and submit in trust to Him. I hope this makes sense 😊. I'll pray that repentance will be a great blessing to you, and you will find yourself FREE to follow Jesus with your whole heart, bringing honour to Him and joy to you ❤.
Remember too, all that you said, for the inevitable NEXT occasion/commitment of sin. "All" means every sin contnually, not future sins, as we walk the steps of sin, repentance, forgiveness, given and received, with the Lord, requires this ONGOING process, lest we become complacent and disconnected from others and the Trinity, as Peter and Matthew were from each other.
This has to be a daily process for me because of how hard it is. I can't just say, oh I agree that I'm forgiven from it, and that's it. It's a daily process and battle, truly learning to accept His forgiveness for this and leaning on His grace. All of us have "things" we need to work on. To be fully repentant is to continually be working with God and asking Him to purify us. No one is perfect or even close to it. I've declared myself forgiven and free of this before and I actually fell deeply into it years ago. I have to have a different approach and apply His grace and love to my life every day in all areas.
I love how Peter is aggressive in everything he does, even in forgiveness.
I told this to my cousin 😅
hahaha i notice it too xD
There is a difference between aggressive and assertive. Aggressive is negative, with fear and worry, not trusting. On the other hand, assertive is the opposite. It's confidence, positive, believing that anything is possible.
I believe that grief is something you have to learn to live with. It doesn't really go away, but with Jesus you can deal with it in a healthy way
I think Jesus can take away all grief
The Lord has come to heal the brokenhearted. He took your sorrows and pains upon His own body and died on the Cross.
Yes, grief never stops; it changes.
@@thunder8590yes,but grief is part of humanity. Jesus mends, but never ends. Christ says on this side,”Bones will break and hearts will break….”
Hey guys, love your podcasts soooo much. I have watched you all for 3 weeks straight. Dr. Tom love your wisdom on First Century knowledge. Sam is hilarious.
Now, Italian and Spanish very are similar. I watched your other video. So what Atticus said may have been right. They do great research.
Secondly, Shahar Issac aka Simon-Peter is a real Israeli Soldier. He gets time off to film the show. So it’s why he is so cut and a beautifully sculpted body. He’s a great guy. There’s your reason. Pray he stays safe.

I visited Ceasarea Philippi back in 2019. There's cave situated pretty far back in the rocks with a large boulder inside, and the stones are stained with a blood/rust color. According to our tour guide, the people would sacrifice their infant children in this cave to appease Pan or Baal's wrath. I remember him saying that it was this specific place that was known as "The Mouth of Hell". It is here where Jesus renames Simon as Peter and tells him "on this rock I will build my Church". To this day, I still see that cave whenever I read Matthew 16.

That was actually an olive press….but the same symbolism ❤❤
Atticus needed a snickers
A great piece of Wisdom I heard from Jack Hibbs was ‘ the bigger the lose, the less words you use’ 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Funny, too, Jesus mentions Simon as "one who hears". When, he cuts off the ear of Malchus, Jesus rebukes him as Simon 😅
“We are forgivers - that’s what we do” wow. That’s deep.
As someone who struggles with the sin of unrighteous anger and holding a grudge, I found Matthew's last few sentences in his apology to Peter very hard to receive.

Yaaah!😊 caught you live at last
Thank you, Caroline, for giving us the truth.
43:00 "There is no unity without humility." So profound, then tying in Philippians 2 how Yeshua demonstrated fully what true humility means. So good!

Not forgiving someone allows them to continue to have power over you.
Thank you so much for this reaction video...I learned much. You two are great teachers...and I'm glad your both my younger brothers! ( in the LORD).

Forgiveness is not for the person you are forgiving but in first instance for yourself, you forgive so you can be forgiven too....
Love love this. So powerful. Thanks guys

Good job, gentlemen!
Why do you leave out the Jesus, 70x7 talk with Peter?
Simon Peter looked frightening as he marched toward Mathew. Mathew looked frightened too!
I just noticed the “insight” cello theme behind this scene. Just like nicodemus in S1E7. Beautiful.
On the topic of the Binding and Loosing, there's an interesting lesson from the Hebrew that may have been well understood by the disciples:
The words "bind" and "loose" may well have been variants of the words אסור and מותר (Assur and Muttar)
Assur could mean any of these (or more): Bound, Forbidden, Captive
Muttar, could similarly be: Loosed, Allowed, Liberated.
There is a morning prayer Jews today still pray, Baruch Mattir Assurim (ברוך מתיר אסורים), which means "Blessed is the Liberator of Captives".
This would very likely have been part of the linguistic context the disciples would have read this speech through.
I was there Caesarea Phillipi ! The god Pan died and there were crowds of people there.
😅😅 I didn't catch that line is from Princess Bride!

And also fine theme - not to be capturable by death through love to what Jesus is. Be well both.
9:51 😂😂😂😂😅Low Blood Sugar!! 😊
when peter hugged matthew, I cried xD maan.
I didn't know Caiphas was appointed by Rome 😮
I was watching a short of Mary returning to camp after she fell away. In that exchange, Jesus says, "I forgive you. It is over". The same thing Peter says.
I just found that interesting.
I do wish you had shown the talk that Simon had with Jesus after Matthew asked for forgiveness. It is just so true that we often need Jesus’ help to be able to forgive and it is not easy. For all the complaints that people make about The Chosen, scenes like this are the reason why I love this show. And discussions like this video are why I love your channel.
One day I went down a rabbit hole and decided to google map everywhere they said they walked in Season 2 to try and figure out how much time had passed between events before I came to the conclusion that it's a show and time between stops requires suspension of disbelief on the part of the audience lol
please do ep. 3!!!
We're working on reactions for the whole season! We'll get them out as soon as we can!
Eu recebo
In the segment about binding and loosing and showing Yusuf with the key, I was thinking about him binding his arm earlier, so binding and loosing.....
the Presence is there. Woah
Learn something new every day. I didn't know Job predated Abraham. Interesting.
When Jesus first addressed Simon Zee in season 2, he called him Simon son of Zebulon.
Tom and Sam,
Can you explain the scene when Jesus changing Simon’s name to Peter, the Rock. …then Jesus speaks about the Rock ? Can u clarity bc I use to be Catholic. Thanks
Hey Could you please elaborate on the "Job is more ancient than Abraham"? 😅 You mentioned that in passing but i would love to know more!
Job is known as the oldest book in the Bible. Meaning, it was written the earliest according to most scholars.
Okay, I admit, whenever you guys teach I have to take down notes!
What is "thank you" in Jewish language?
😊😊😊 Thank you!
BTW, first name of Derek Prince is "Peter".
Hebrew for "thank you" is "todah"!
This is just a burning that Thomas gave rhema a sundial as a marriage gift at the proposal when she dies I think the message which is hidden will be that when Jesus dies and is risen again she will be with him this is so exciting to me that Jesus will be bringing back the people that were in the paradise waiting for messiah to come he comes and brings them up and they there was thousands of people that were seen after Jesus rose again so I can't wait if they put this in the show
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ good
The Chosen should be praised for teaching super masculine men that it is okay to cry and hug other men. Doing so does not make you Gay and even if you are Gay God loves you. I go to a church that performs gay marriages.
Interesting how Caiaphas prophesied “not own his own”. John 11:49-52. Is this similar to Simon saying what he said at the gates of hell and Jesus said “you Simon did not say this of your own?
Peter means “ROCK”…and upon this rock (Peter) I will build my church. Which is exactly why Simon / Peter became our first Pope. Even Paul and Barnabas ran their thoughts (preaching methods / words) and ideas (inspired by the Holy Spirit) by Peter and the council set up by Peter. .
Shalom Shalom,
To deny that Peter was seen as a leader within Messiah's community would be a mistake. But I think one thing this show should be teaching is that what we tend have been led to believe according to tradition may not line up with what scripture actually says.
Yeshua asks "who do men say that I am?" His disciples literally give different answers based on what they have heard people say. Then He asks "who do 'you' say that I am?" Meaning, never minds what men have been saying. What has God revealed to you about me? And Simon, by faith answers, by faith what God had revealed to him based on what he has seen, and what scripture has said.
To a point, the same approach must be taken even when it comes to answering questions like "who do we say Simon Peter was" as far as the papacy goes, among other traditions that men have taught throughout church history that scripture may actually disagree with, and there are quite a few traditionally taught things within the church that scripture does not agree with.
🙋🏾♀️ for the record, I like gift cards. Now, it depends on what kind of gift card it is. If it's to Home Depot or Petco or something that I would never ever use, then yeah a gift card would not be good. But you can't go wrong with an Amazon gift card. I will always find a use for that, and I will always thank you for it.
As a wife, I love gift cards lol. But it's hard to use them if the gift card doesn't come with the gift of time to use them (aka watching the kids while I use them).😀
Pray first! Then remember that God is so very eager to forgive you that the very first thing Jesus did when the world was created was die on the cross to seal your forgiveness. He is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world!! And forgive yourself as you forgive others, and be patient. Every time you start to feel the shame and guilt read the Bible and remember Philippians 4:8.
Can you imagine if all the Romans were actual Italian actors speaking in their native language? 😅
In fact the language most spoken was Greek that it was the "English" of that time.
Latin was spoken by the authorities.
Italians speak Italian and not latin.
This was just a side comment you made but I’ve always been curious why Job is often placed before Abraham. Wouldn’t Eliphaz the Temanite (Jobs friend) be a descendant of Esau based on Genesis 36? I would genuinely love to hear your thoughts.
A name change can also cause a personality change.
I thought it was an apt setting where he renamed Simon into Peter The Rock, but again it was another scene where they severely watered down actually what Jesus said
What are you talking about? Gift cards are WAY better than the gifts my husband thinks I want. 😅
ATTICUS is Hangry
Hi Abby, I've had this problem too. One thing that helped me was realising that I am not my own judge - judgement is the job of God alone. Because Jesus has paid the penalty for your sins - ALL of them,if you have trusted Jesus as your Redeemer and believe He is who He says He is, then God has declared you free from the penalty of sin. Can you agree in your heart, that Jesus's sacrifice was all that was necessary, sufficient? Have you turned away from the sin in that "certain area of your life"? I had to pray a prayer of repentance for trying to take the job of judgement off of God for myself! I had to LET GO of that and give it to God, and submit in trust to Him. I hope this makes sense 😊. I'll pray that repentance will be a great blessing to you, and you will find yourself FREE to follow Jesus with your whole heart, bringing honour to Him and joy to you ❤.
Remember too, all that you said, for the inevitable NEXT occasion/commitment of sin. "All" means every sin contnually, not future sins, as we walk the steps of sin, repentance, forgiveness, given and received, with the Lord, requires this ONGOING process, lest we become complacent and disconnected from others and the Trinity, as Peter and Matthew were from each other.
This has to be a daily process for me because of how hard it is. I can't just say, oh I agree that I'm forgiven from it, and that's it. It's a daily process and battle, truly learning to accept His forgiveness for this and leaning on His grace. All of us have "things" we need to work on. To be fully repentant is to continually be working with God and asking Him to purify us. No one is perfect or even close to it. I've declared myself forgiven and free of this before and I actually fell deeply into it years ago. I have to have a different approach and apply His grace and love to my life every day in all areas.
