Porn/sex addiction is a HUGE problem! Thank you for talking about it! I hope your story encourages others to get help… which includes opening up to people.
I think that this shows how messy being a Christian is. It can be ugly and humbling, but knowing that there is a community who holds you accountable while *holding* you as valuable is one of the most lovely things.
I think of Joseph and Potiphars wife. We flee from intentional sin. Some think it's OK to get as close to the line as possible but we are supposed to get as far away from that line as possible. We all sin...but...intentional sin is different.
And now the entire internet is John's honorary accountability partner haha. In a way, that's embarrassing, yes. But it is better to be embarrassed on your way to Jesus than proud and cool on your way to destruction.
I had rather listen to a honest person who admits short coming and issues with mental health than a person who denies this. Stay strong brother keep God in your view
I loved this and although I wasn’t hurt or offended, I forgive you, John. Accept you. EVERYONE deserves another chance. And dude, you’ve shown more regret than OJ. So it’s cool. You can stop apologizing and beating yourself up. You didn’t kill anyone. Find me a grown-up who hasn’t hurt anyone, who doesn’t regret some of their actions and I’ll find you a liar! Pick up, go on, do good. Spread the love. We need it. 💚
if you weren’t affected or hurt, forgiveness is not yours to extend. he sexually harassed and exploited women and now turns around and makes a joke about it. it’s disgusting. this whole clip is manipulative and repulsive.
@@yourleftbigtoe That’s not your position to judge him. Don’t like him? Move on! The man owned up to his mistakes. Take that self righteous perfect life of yours elsewhere. Because of judgemental people like you it’s exactly why the unsaved stay away from church
@@yourleftbigtoe let’s open your WHOLE life to inspection… every deep dark part. Every time you called someone a name, made fun of someone, lied (even a white lie), disobeyed a law, even a traffic law, speeding, not fully stopping at a red light… had a bad thought, thought that guy over there had a hot body(lust)… just because you’re better at “hiding” your sin doesn’t make you PERFECT…
@@yourleftbigtoe If you weren’t hurt, wrath isn’t yours. If you aren’t God, judgement isn’t yours. People who are sorry get forgiven. That’s how I work. Sometimes it is REALLY hard, but I work toward it. Everyone hurts someone. Everyone does things that they later wish they hadn’t done. Humans err. Forgiveness is good for the offender and good for the offended. That’s my opinion.
“This place sounds amazing” “oh only one person watches you pee” oh my goodness! Hilarious. I admire your transparency. I am thankful you are alive and well. Praise God that his mercies are new each day! You are very talented.
I have 2 tickets to see John in Houston on April 1st and I'm so happy to finally see him in person. He's such a natural, so genuine, and so very funny. Love him! And I 'found' him by accident on TH-cam last year watching his 'weatherman in Colorado' and I thought it was for real. Brilliant man!
John, your humor was a blessing to me when I was going through some rough times. God is not only our Savior, but also our redeemer. As you continue to embrace His grace and redemption He will continue to use you to bless others with both your humor and humility.
You are one of the few comedians I find laugh out loud funny every time: audience interaction and delivery is always on-point. I am rooting for you! Thank you for all the light and joy you bring to so many people.
Good to have you back, John. I really missed your comedy. Just sww the new concert you uploaded, and I think God blessed you with an even better sense of humor than ever for getting straightened out.
I honestly was surprised to see you come back but I absolutely love it. That’s real life it- it shows mistakes happen and we can repent and there is love. Thank you for sharing. Ps- That does sound amazing as a mom lol
I am thankful for you showing your pain and humility. Glad to have you back doing shows and you just being you! May you always feel God's love and mercy especially at times when walking through moments in the shadow
The year my husband was played off from his job and career of 25 plus years, was a hard year. Someone invited me to a Jeff Foxworthy concert as a gift. It was the highlight of my year. Just to laugh for a night and not think about my hardships. Thank you for your honesty and bravery. We all struggle with sin, few of us must do it in the public eye.
This is awesome you have officially become my favorite comedian, you stand up for your beliefs and i love that and you are soooooooo. Truly funny and relevant!
The greatest laughter truly does come from the greatest pain. You know you are in the healing process when you can laugh about the pain. Unless you’re in prison for life …. Then yeah probably not so much. 😂
If John had been a pastor, he would have been skewered. I'm not saying he should be. I'm just saying consider that. And please don't say "he's just a comedian". That man has more reach and people that look up to him than many a pastor. Again, I'm not saying he should be judged. I'm just saying we treat people who makes us laugh much, much, more softly than people who get us convicted. But that's human nature for you.
@@neff02 I don't think this was the place to be focusing on the sin. In his first video after rehab he showed himself to take this seriously and that he was deeply repentant about his sin. He simply didn't focus on it during this show.
@@janavos9901 you're free to your opinion. But joking about sin to a prodmantly sinful world where the enemy loves for us to belittle sin something so serious that Jesus had to come suffer and die to make a way for us. Joking there was no sex in a sex rehab by an unmarried man, is not of God nor God honoring. Dangerous slippery slope. Every chance we get, which he has built a platform on the backs of alleged Believers and conservatives,give glory to God not sin!
I know this is from a year ago but I have just seen this. You are as funny as you have ever been! We are all imperfect but we have a Savior who loves us. I love you too! God bless you!!
Love you John. No shame. You made the right choice to go to Rehab and I respect you for it. I’m sure it was one of the toughest decisions you’ve ever made. Praying for you.
Everyone has things that happened to them, you were just a public figure. You did things to try and heal. I adore you, I prayed for you when it was announced you had went into rehab. You have a kind soul John. It is why people will stand with you. You admit it and do better!
@JohnBCrist I Never heard about you being cancelled. And yes we all fall short, it’s the getting up and letting God work in and through you that makes the difference. We need to tell our stories to encourage others that are struggling. God bless you kiddo.
I STILL Remember the summer my church pastor did a series on Romans chapter 8. He read Verse One, stopped, and expounded on it. I sat there with tears running down my face. I had honestly never even read the beginning of Romans chapter 8, so I had NO IDEA about verse 1, its Declarative Statement that is SOOO Powerful!! Believers/Followers of Jesus Christ truly NEED to know this Declarative Statement, ALONG with "For ALL have sinned and fallen short of God's glory." (also in Romans)
@@DrGeorgeAntonios as a minister’s wife, I can assure you pastors get ground into powder all the time for doing nothing. Their kids too. Pressure is immense. I’m not talking high profile ones. Just humble servants trying to carry out their calling
Duuuuuuude!!! Woo hoo!!! Keeping you in my prayers! 25+ yrs sober and completely clean, 2+ yrs, by God's grace! Yes, a lot of times, laughter does come from a place of pain! You are a very funny and talented guy! I already loved you, now, I love you even more! Many blessings! 🥰🤗
John -- We DO love you. Please know that. Love your humor. More importantly we love the person that God created you to be. DON'T CHANGE, no matter how much people try to get you to not be you. You help us be more Christian ourselves and more like Christ. And God uses your life and your style of humor to prick our own hearts and spirits. Thank you. This is your ministry and calling of God.
John helps me feel less alone, being a former worship leader that was living in sin for a decent portion of the time I was leading worship. God's Grace is real, guys. Even for hypocrites like me.
It was a religious place at best. New age confusion mixed with some biblical sounding terms and methods. From this skit, it seems evident it didn't help him understand according to God, sex is reserved for marriage.
Everyone has things that happened to them, you were just a public figure. You did things to try and heal. I adore you, I prayed for you when it was announced you had went into rehab. You have a kind soul John. It is why people will stand with you. You admit it and do better!
The only difference between you and the rest of us, is that you're in the public eye. Everyone has fallen short of the glory of God. EVERYONE. I'm so glad you're back doing what God obviously gifted you to do. Keep the laughs coming.
Love you John. I’ve been in the hospital 3 times for attempted suicide and have a lot of guilt and pain from sexual sin, so your not alone brother! Keep doing what you do. I hope you know you’re a blessing to many.
Glad you're still with us. I don't even know the full story of the controversy with John (guess I've been living under a rock) and I don't think I need to know either honestly. I have experienced a lot of shame for the same thing and although I don't think I've fully recovered from that shame, in the past year I've done what I never thought I'd be able to do and started opening up to other people about it who I thought would be disgusted by me for it. There are still people I haven't told that I still think would look at me differently honestly but maybe I'll be able to open up more one day. Always remember that Christ loves you and forgives your sins. ❤️
I hope you are doing better. It helps me to remember that 1) God has a purpose for me, or He would have already called me up. 2) It's necessary to remember my past sin, but suffering of guilt and doubts over it means I believe our Lord Jesus Chist is not great enough to cover them. Which is simply not true. Trust and follow God's words, not the devil's. Anything that contradicts God is from the devil. Memorizing scripture and the promises of our Savior is a good habit to counter this.
Hi John, I'm sorry you were going through some stuff. My sister was all summer bible camp one minute, shooting heroin the next. No judgment here, just reaffirming it could happen to anyone! I'm not Christian but appreciate your comedy because I grew up in that environment, and wish you many healthy years of laughter and success❤
@@cmr_77 well it's my sister... she went to jail as soon as she turned 18 and got a felony. We thought since the boyfriend would be locked up for 6 years that she would be ok, away from him. But since then, she's jumped from addict to addict. She's 36 now and had 2 kids, my mom has custody and the police are looking for her as I type... so things are not good at all.
Laughter: It helps you cope. Laud, yes! I’m old, John, and a mother of five now adult kids. Homeschooled them all. Made a ton of mistakes….and had to watch some of them suffer through our legalistic method of “sharing” Jesus. Good grief! I had many things bassackwards…but, we made it through. They made it through. You made it through. Not everybody does. God bless you. I don’t miss a single one of your videos. Love them…and you!
It was DEFINITELY Knoxville! Me, my wife, and kids were there and it was FANTASTIC!! This moment of vulnerability along with humor is something we've talked about often since. Thanks for being real...and bringing the funny!
As someone who has been a fan of yours for a long time, John; I just wanted to say that you are still an inspiration to me. To go through trials and make it out the other side is a great testimony, not something to be ashamed of. To speak the truth with boldness is what being a Christian is all about. Adding the extra layer of humor shows great character and spiritual development. I wish you continued success and happiness in Christ our Lord.
The Mom’s comment is real! As a mom myself, I knew she was going to respond with that because that’s what I was thinking! Send me there please; it sounds like a wonderful vacation! 🤣
That was awesome and true John. I also went to a Christian rehab and what you say about feeling shame is so true. That rehab helped me to not only want to be live, but to actually work out what it really means to be alive. I'm glad your rehab helped you to. Much love brother, I hope this is one of the comments you read :)
One of my biggest disappointments of last year was when your concert in Syracuse, NY was canceled. It would have been my second time seeing you. I love you, I think you are funny and your honesty is refreshing. Christians do shame others in the name of Christ’s love. I struggle with that because God is love and loves us through our failures then makes them our strength through Him.
Totally relate to the mom comments. I had four children under 6! My mom had 11 children and her only “holiday” was the few days she had in the hospital recovering from childbirth. But,praise God you made it through your recovery and can bless God and others through your witness and testimony, John.
The fact that you can talk about it and joke about it. Is amazing please continue doing what you're doing please continue making people laugh you are a wonderful person we are all sinners and that is OK because Jesus makes us better
I wish we would normalize things like Rehab, Therapy, or Group Meetings. Going through life is not a thing that should be alone. Every person needs support and council in order to weave through the patterns of life. Far too often people do not find support in friends, family, society, or community. A person being left to their own devices in a feeling of loneliness and confusion can be devastating. When those who are supposed to love, accept, raise, nurture, and support are the ones who judge, belittle, and condemn, then life spirals out of control. Sadly for many people God isn't enough. Especially for those who have hypersensitivity to independence and self-reliance stemmed from abuse or trauma. Just saying the world is a crazy place and there is not only repercussions for our actions but also our reactions, emotions, and core personalities. Treat those tied to you by fate with kindness. Lead with compassion. You never know who is looking to you for survival.

“Christian’s” are the only organized group that is suppose to be like Jesus that kick their own until they bleed to death. This is not accountability.
It is messy being a human.
I had rather listen to a honest person who admits short coming and issues with mental health than a person who denies this.
Stay strong brother keep God in your view
Love you brother! Keep telling the story of redemption and being funny!

That rehab helped me to not only want to be live, but to actually work out what it really means to be alive. I'm glad your rehab helped you to. Much love brother, I hope this is one of the comments you read :)
One of my biggest disappointments of last year was when your concert in Syracuse, NY was canceled. It would have been my second time seeing you. I love you, I think you are funny and your honesty is refreshing. Christians do shame others in the name of Christ’s love. I struggle with that because God is love and loves us through our failures then makes them our strength through Him.
Lisa, I didn’t even know he was scheduled to be in Syracuse last year.
@@MrMixolydian7 yes last October
With every head bowed and with every eye closed..
I'm so glad after all that, you kept your humor and your faith.
Sending you love and prayers for your continued healing ♥️
Awesome. It was good to hear his honesty. And his gift of natural comedy as he told his story. Humble looks good on you Sir.
That's actually kind of awesome to hear that you and Mark Lowry are friends. That guy is so refreshing.
Yes and listen to Southbound on Mark's YT!!
It's awesome!✝️🙏❤
Totally relate to the mom comments. I had four children under 6! My mom had 11 children and her only “holiday” was the few days she had in the hospital recovering from childbirth.
But,praise God you made it through your recovery and can bless God and others through your witness and testimony, John.

Thanks so much John! It’s both comedic and inspiring!
The fact that you can talk about it and joke about it. Is amazing please continue doing what you're doing please continue making people laugh you are a wonderful person we are all sinners and that is OK because Jesus makes us better
I missed you so much when you were away, prayed for you often. So glad you are back. What an inspiring message, very touching.
Glad yr doing better, man. Proud of you for chugging through :)
I wish we would normalize things like Rehab, Therapy, or Group Meetings. Going through life is not a thing that should be alone. Every person needs support and council in order to weave through the patterns of life. Far too often people do not find support in friends, family, society, or community. A person being left to their own devices in a feeling of loneliness and confusion can be devastating. When those who are supposed to love, accept, raise, nurture, and support are the ones who judge, belittle, and condemn, then life spirals out of control. Sadly for many people God isn't enough. Especially for those who have hypersensitivity to independence and self-reliance stemmed from abuse or trauma. Just saying the world is a crazy place and there is not only repercussions for our actions but also our reactions, emotions, and core personalities. Treat those tied to you by fate with kindness. Lead with compassion. You never know who is looking to you for survival.
Your friend’s wife was CORRECT. Sign me up! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude is naturally just really funny. The way he kicked the bottle made me laugh even.
Great clip! Sometimes you have to go through the dark before you can appreciate the light.
I don't think I've ever cried while watching John. The shame cycle is real man.
💯
I saw you in Detroit a month ago. This part of the show was fantastic. We need this kind of vulnerability in the church.
