People should listen to this poem. A lot of things are happening in 2020. A little of a time is worth it.
Scream it out brother!!' I feel you fellowman!TRUTH!!
I'm so tired of all the hate why can't we all just love one another!
Preach my sister
This made me feel surprisingly hopeful
Me too
You know Jon, I understand when you said up you don't watch the news anymore because I stopped watching the news too. Man, it hurts so bad to see what's going on in the world. Then I think to myself, "if this is what I see, then What does God see?" I would literally break down and just pray. I really wish people can see this video cause It's amazing... Thanks so much
+Ann Mary Renguul I don't like watching the news either!
+Martha Worthy There's very few news sources that report the truth anymore, sadly. One American News seems to be holding their own but hey will be pulled soon I think...b/c they aren't affiliated with the big agencies & are a family owned business...also due to U verse is being canceled thru at&t eventually!! They are being forced out basically!!
PLZ Check them out...not to say some of them aren't a lil biased but they do allow for seemingly more truth blatant lies from mainstream medics! Very sad but I agree with you, I rarely watch the news anymore-it's just too saddening for me & causes me depression! Am trying to put only positive was in front of me~God Bless us all.....
Whoops, saw a few typos in my comments....sorry & hope it can be read (?) ; /
Your spoken word is some of the best on youtube! God bless you!
+Martha Worthy I also upload Christian videos, and would absolutely love if you checked them out!! :)
+Martha Worthy Love that you have a focus on Christian women
+Martha Worthy Love that you have a focus on Christian women!

Oh My God Your words are absolutely on Point!!! We need to spread the Gospel to as many people As we Can!!!
Those last words for me as a teenager have changed my life
Courage, wisdom and Love. l have the wisdom but still need to work on my courage
Me too
Amenn Jon
God bless you Jon !
Wow man! This needs to be heard! People really need to see this and give this a serious thought! 👌
Loved the addition of text to the video!! Great job!
This is the truth, this needs to be heard
the words I've been thinking are "something's gotta give." then I pray for whatever heart breaking thing it is. Then after praying for a while like this, I realized that "something" has to be me. I can't stand by. Lord use me
My heart is in tatters after watching this, but somehow I still feel hopefully defiant of the things you're encouraging us to rise up against.
amen amen
Yes Jon! That's the truth!!
I listened to this about 16 times! I love your spoken word videos!(:
Amen!!!!
This is an AWESOME poem! As an elevator enthusiast. Where is that old OTIS elevator? I would love to see it.

1:14 your right bro words are very powerful. Remember genesis 1:1 when gid said let there be light,and there was light, he "said" let there be light, and he began to create the universe with his words. So.... if his words have the power to do anything, and he made man on his own image, so if your only human, and you tell someone, i hate you that will hurt them more than crashing of a building from 500 story's
Your right all the pain conflicted, and lives that weren't takin in vein. It's gotta stop, somewhere
Really great spoken word, Jon! Can't wait for the next one already!
Awesome!
That was so AWESOME! Best one yet!
Amazing.
WOW!
THAT WAS AWESOME!!! I feel so moved and inspired
This gives me so much hope.
I just saw on the news that these men had found a missing child, and a minister who was also apart of the search but not present when they found her had God tell him that the missing girl was found! Even in the midst of all the trouble in this world, God is still working!
www.cnn.com/2016/05/14/travel/carnival-cruise-missing-passenger/index.html
Could somebody please pray for the family of this person, and pray for God to do a miracle and save her? Our God's amazing!
Wow. This is really powerful!
Great job Jon :)
This was amazing and very true. Keep up the great work
incredible.
Genius.
Stop it by sharing, show that someone is caring
I am diagnosed with bipolar manic-depressive and when I watch the news it just adds to it I can't watch it I've haven't watched the news 3 years and it's really weird because people tell me you didn't know about that you didn't watch the news no I don't watch the news anymore always bad
Jon, you added a few words to this because you spoke this same poem on one/two of your conferences. Nice Spoken word.
Yes! Love it! #snapchatfam
How do you hate a living human being? How could you hurt another? We need to quit this deal of hating others. Why can't we all love everyone? Love them for being alive, and being a person, and taking another one of God's gifts, TODAY. If everyone in the world, regardless of Faith, would stop to pray, even if you have to pretend; for just one minute, there would be world peace. Just thank your Father for being able to wake up again.
I loved this and it inspired me to look more into these sorts of things/do my own spoken word thing. I was wondering if anyone knows of a verse which says "sit and eat with them" or "sit with them" I've been having a look through the bible for a while and haven't been able to find any but I'm sure I've heard it before in Church or something. The verse or something similar would be gratefully received.
Thanks, Rach
is this published anywhere? I would LOVE to perform this for UIL poetry for category "our changing world" but it needs to be published
!!!!!!
Awesome video! By the way, what kind of lav mic were you using in the video?
where could i read your spoken words?
Can I translate this?
Blacks,whites and other races are the same we are all human beings we all suffer from fighting are own kind, We can all stop the wars the bad habits with each other and care for another, But Jealously that phase that make people hate them due to how much luck, good life and how more famous they're,But don't we all share the same luck? Don't we all go through the same stuff they do? YES, we all do and we all are same living beings Notting can stop us unless it us. There no act of jealousy we all have are own luck and the same are same luck is being chosen, Being care and love for and having god on are side. We can stop this we all can stop this world Peace can be real if we really try and not be enemys we all can changed if God believe in us nothing will stop us from believing in ourselves
There no need to jealous about anything we all are the same and will always be the same, so let stop this horrible stuff happening it is true to that everything stuff like hurting each other and not accepting the people who seem less odd from us this will all stop and when this will stop well, happyness of course
I liked this, because people always think "it's over there".
Only thing that confused me, what was the definition of "Homophobe" you were using? People who are cruel to people who are gay by dissing them and treating them like that baptist church does, or people who believe it's morally wrong as supported by scripture and stand for their beliefs without being cruel about it. I think there is a world of difference there. I'm not trying to start a debate I just think that would be nice to understand better.
Whoa there...

it's an honest question. :S
At the end of the day it is sin we should rebuke.
I don't think he differentiated. If that was the case then one of the two wouldn't be covered. If anything the aim is to get them to see God, help them get right with Him. The removal of sin still leaves a human being, capable of being loved.
Hummingbird876
suppose that could be it dunno
I dont like the news nor do I watch it because it is too negative. It impacts the mind and only shows negative events.
