As an 18 year old with cancer right now Granger,your words really truly inspired/touched me. I truly appreciate and love everything your doing! And praise God for all the lives you will/have touched💙
YEE YEE -country boy from Ohio 😉💪🏽
❤
Rejoice in the PROMISE that, through the assurance we have in Christ, you will not only see River again but that you will spend an eternity with him! This is not wishful thinking - this is a fact truer than anything we can physically see in front of our eyes at this very moment. God bless you, brother.
This reminds me of an interview I saw of Josh Turner. He's a Christian, and he said he's been asked multiple times why he sings country music and not Christian music, and he said because his reach in country music is far greater than his reach would be as a Christian artist. Therefore, if he can work his faith into his Country music, he's doing his job.
Grainger, I'll be praying for you brother! It's awesome watching you start down this path. There will be trials and controversy I'm sure, but stay strong brother!
Beautiful words Granger. God is using you to do amazing things even in all your suffering. ✝️❤️
Thank you Granger for the wonderful sermon.
I love how at certain points you can see him being in the moment and taking it all in and showing his raw emotions. ❤️❤️
I can’t get over what a beautiful sermon you did, you’re such a natural. I hope you will try and keep doing them when time allows you 🙏🏻❤️🕊
💙🙏💙
I hope he is independent with the music industry you know them by there fruit's
Granger you are a natural! I absolutely loved your testimony. Ofcourse I cried through a lot of this, so many emotions. I truly believe you are in your element. God is definitely using you to spread the good news. I love everything you said about Peace, Joy & Hope. Such an amazing sermon.
It’s so good! I have watched it several times since Sunday.
Amazing sermon Granger! You have more than 1 calling and it shows.
Brother Granger, I was raised in a high control religion. I got out 2 years ago, I
have been entertained by your videos.
I stumbled onto this video, and it is giving me a lot to think about.
I had given up on God for several reasons, however I have always held onto treating others kindly, and not being bitter, in my heart I feel a strong desire to do right by others. While watching this message .... I got it. Your message from God touched my heart. Thank You Sir!
......YEE YEE!
There is a god and he gives us challenges we need to overcome!
🙏
We believe the same Granger. Outstanding job! You are a sower of seed. Spread it thick and wide brother. Yee Yee nation
Granger, Thank you, for the beautiful sermon. I hope you will give more. You did a wonderful job, like a natural. All the scripture you used show's, how well you know God and His word. Love & God bless you, Amber and your precious babies. ❤🦋👣🎈
Granger Is the most country and christen person on this earth YEE YEE
You can never convince me that God isn't watching us all, I needed to hear this tonight, after a long day, struggling and just feeling tired, I needed to hear this! God bless you all!
I’ve done so many wrongs and I’ve done things that I will never be proud of. Thank you so much granger.
Absolutely amazing!! Now that Sir is your divine calling!!!!!!!! Preach it Brother. May God bless you and your Family.
Granger thank you for being a vessel. To share your story.God is so so good
Wow,I am blown away!! Thank you for your testimony. I needed to hear this. I have been wanting to read the Bible every morning but,.... honestly I cannot understand it. I just bought a New Living Translation Bible. I am a Christian. I like you,have questions and Long to feel an intimate relationship with the Lord. I have had many trials and tribulations ,none compare to the loss of a child. The most unimaginable suffering ,no parent,wants to even think about. Thank you, your a wonderful young man ,husband and father. I feel that if you wanted there would be nothing you cannot do. God Bless you and your family. May God continue to give you unsurpassable strength! The kind that only comes from him. ❣️🙏
Granger what a beautiful sermon. The lord has big big plans for you. We love y’all so much !
I just found this on TH-cam! The Holy Spirit used this sermon to change the trajectory of my life. I stopped looking for the Cliff Notes version of God's Word and started reading His word everyday for myself!!! ❣️
Thank you. I needed to hear this today. My son in law was diagnosed three months ago with a very rare cancer called appendix cancer. He underwent a massive 14 hour surgery three days ago. He has been suffering in severe pain. My daughter is at his bedside, leaving three babies under the age of seven at home. Why me? is the question we all ask and he is no exception. I shared your sermon with them today and I hope they heard it like I did. I hope it will give them the peace, joy and hope Jesus offers us. Thank you, Granger.
We're praying for your son-in-law and his family including you. If you need a testimony that their is a God go check out MercyMe's "Almost Home" music video and under Tony Trumble that's my hubby. It's a powerful one. Take some tissues when you read it. I cry everytime he shares it with others.
God knows what he is doing that is y we have a God But we’ll be praying for him
I'll will pray for you amd your family right now!
Prayers for your family. May God walk by your side through this season of your lives.
This is awesome, The love of Jesus is so powerful. God never leaves us he’s always on our side. God bless
Such a beautiful and powerful sermon, Granger! This is your calling! I felt so grateful to be there. Love you! ♥️
I just wanted to say I had goose bumps!! Just amazing Granger! Then finished with tears and gratitude for your strength.
Grangers voice is just so soothing. I listen to the after midnight show every morning. Granger helps me start my day. And the Bobby bones show helps me not to walk out on a job that is placing too much pressure on me with extra and more work that I can’t handle.
You have such a powerful testimony, and it’s amazing to hear how God has worked in your life. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS. I am looking forward to hopefully listening to you preach more
I watched and listened to your sermon twice. I will probably watch it again. You and Amber have such a way of expressing your faith, love, and giving to and from our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Thank you for sharing your experiences and especially your "rebirth", it all came from your heart and shared the way only you could describe. God Bless you, Amber, and your family!
As a survivor of losing a small child..I really appreciate this sermon!
I watched your sermon on The Smith's last night. Then listened on this channel while driving 45 minutes to work last night. I heard and felt so much more emotion listening in on the drive to work. I may be at a crossroad on September 21st due to a COVID Jab mandate at work. I may be forced to go ahead and retire. I'm a nurse and I just feel in my heart this Jab is not right. I need to get into the Bible and listen to God. Thank you for sharing the word with me. I really need it now. Stay Safe and God Bless.
Thank you Granger for a wonderful sermon!
Incredible sermon. I am moved to tears. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Granger.
God bless you Granger.
Is there anything Granger Smith can not do? Amazing!! God is great and working through You/Granger. Changing the lives of so many. Helping people with their personal walk closer to God. Thank You for your openness. I have heard you share the tragic story about River, but never in this great of detail as you did here. It breaks my heart every time and your strength amazes me every time. I will be seeing you in Chico, CA. Thank You. God Bless.
🙏🏼
Holy Spirit thank you so much for blessing Granger with your words spoken to all of us through his beautiful sermon. God bless you and your family! God's blessing also upon each and everyone one of us that is a child of God and also all his children that have yet to know and follow him.
Overwhelming beautiful sermon. Thank you Granger ❤️
Thank you. I have listen to your words many times but I have never felt that they Were Meant For Me until today! The word of God has a way to find the ears that need to hear it. So again I say thank you.
It’s been more than a week I have come to find U sharing HIS WORDS, GOD gave a NEW HEART in U and HIS PROFOUNDLY wisdom to connect with so many are suffering and to fine PEACE, JOY and HOPE in CHRIST, I’m humble to get to hear this sermon and to walk with GOD, when I hear HIM speaking through U 🙏💟
I watched it on Sunday, man I really learnt something that is applicable to the real everyday life. Yee Yee
Thank you for this I have never gotten over my brothers death it’s been 17 yrs my heart hurts I watched my mom and dad go through this and my parents held on to God ! GOD BLESS YOU ,AMBER AND FAMILY 🤍🙏😢🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍💙💙💙💙🤍🤍🤍🤍
Thank you Granger. What a wonderful sermon. God has you right where he wants you. We look forward to more!!
Amazing sermon Granger, God is truly using you to put his word out in the world, and leading us to accept him and let him lead us to be a fisherman of souls.. so natural and beautiful, keep on doing this.. prayers for you and your family 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Granger I so enjoyed your sermon. As I go through a valley of having to put my Mom in a nursing home I do need the peace only Jesus can give. This is the hardest thing my brother and I have ever had to do.
I can’t understand those 10 people who disliked this, what is there to dislike, obviously they’re city people who don’t go to church. God bless you granger, and your family
Thank you Granger for this beautiful sermon.
Granger smith you are absolutely incredible.
I love your strength and family and values. Makes my heart sing to see you grow your faith, especially after your challenges. Grow and fly like the angels, even though you are far above. I so appreciate your faith! May I see you and yours above! God bless you and Yours!
Grainger thank you for allowing God's message, this message, to come thru you. May God continue His work in you, and I would encourage you to continue on in this ministry. This world needs the truth, Jesus. Please share more messages on TH-cam.
Granger, I have watched this twice now. The first time through tears, as I knew your families story about Riv. The second time really tuned into your words. You moved my heart in a mighty way. I deal with chronic daily pain. I've sat on my pity pot more days in the last 20 years than I can count. What is my purpose, how can God possibly use me now? But God... through His infinite wisdom has used me in a way I never even dreamed of. Touching lives and hearts telling about our Jesus. He is surely using you in a mighty way brother! My love, hugs and prayers to you and your beautiful family !!!
That was a wonderful sermon. Praying we get to hear more of them God Bless you.
I have enjoyed your sermon, I too usually don’t listen to sermon’s on TH-cam because most are boring to me but yours caught my eye and I’ve listened to it twice. I do believe you have a calling. God not only blessed you with a voice to sing but he has blessed you with preaching the Gospel. I adore you and your family, and am so glad this video caught my eye. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Granger. Perfect message 💜
Loved the sermon. I took notes! I am always learning something new from you! When you said "He doesn't need us to glorify Him and worship Him. He is the glory. He created us to run on worshipping Him." Excellent reminders from God's Word and His promises! Thank you for being so vulnerable and speaking His truth!
Follow your dreams Granger 💙
Thank you Granger I've heard these words so many times but for the first time it clicked, I've been selfish for far to long. I hurt my lower back bad and I didn't know how to deal with the pain both mentally and physical so i stopped going to church about 5 years ago so God has used you to get to my heart thank you
Absolutely beautiful Sermon, Granger.
Thank you for sharing.
Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you and your family.
I TH-cam’d looking for Earl Dibbles and got a sermon and a little misty eyed instead.
Thanks for taking me to church during the last bit of this night shift
I’ve definitely been meditating on Romans 5:1-5 this morning
Thank you for those wonderful words. I believe we all seek his hand and I for one have been drawn back into the Lord from following The Smiths!! Again thank you!! I've had many trials in my life from diagnoses of a noncurable illness. From losing a child 13 yrs ago. I still struggle with that one.
You and Amber have opened my eyes again not to ask for me but to ask for other that need a hand more than me. God Bless The Smiths and Granger, From the bottom of my heart thank you!!
The Lord don't need us but we need the Lord.
Thank you. You through gasoline on a tiny spark I had burning just when I thought I needed water to put it out. Well done.
Brother Granger,
I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. The multitude of times that either I listen to you or Amber speak. And give testimonies or speak about your faith. Families, couples, everyone should want to be strive to think like you guys are far as your strength in your faith. Your faith in god. Grangers message moved me. I’m an emotional person. Gotta say it made me cry very much. But tears of joy and understanding. Because I to needed to hear this message. To devote to change and be reborn as a person/Christian.
Your a blessing and a great person Granger. Gods given you the gift to be able to reach out to others. Like you said, even if it’s one person at a time. If we can at least reach one person, that’s okay.
So thank your for blessing our lives. Filling our hearts with joy and happiness with you and your family sharing your personal life with us.
I want to strive to be more like you brother.
Thank you so much!!
You are an amazing man of God
Wow! Great job. I took so much away from this. I’ve watched it two times so far and will probably watch again. So much beautiful inspiration. Thank you Granger for sharing this with us. You did an outstanding job.
Granger, this is Mrs. Goodwin again, your 10th grade English teacher. I continue to follow your stories, your path, and I am so moved by your decisions, your demonstration of faith in the Lord, and your humility. I hope and pray that you can continue to bless others, myself included, through your life, your sermons, and your music. God is good.
How amazing! I sure hope Granger & Amber see this! And Grangers mom, Jazz.
Loved the sermon. Praying for you and your family daily. By the way all great people were born in August.
Thank you brother. The scriptures the Lord put on your heart for us is the BEST PART, THE MEAT my brother don't be sorry fo too much scripture each one resonated for deep connection for many of us on all different levels for so many hearts God brought to you to listen. I loved those scriptures man faith is an active verb yes daily as we deny ourselves. Brother God bless you so much.

Your an inspiration to our family.

Thank you this is what I needed to hear. I lost my husband about 2 1/2 years ago and I lost my momma July 14 2021. Both to cancer (different kinds of cancer) and I know I must go on. But how!! This sermon showed me how. “GOD” will help if I just ask. Thank you Granger for reminding me this is what I need to do.
I'm so sorry. Lifting you up in prayer today!

I'm not a believer but this was a lovely sermon
Outstanding Granger. God certainly used you to deliver a much needed message.
This video has made a big impact on my life. The message changed my life in a way I never expected. Thank you.
Wonderful music, Wonderful sermons
Just watched the Smith's- I have heard amber tell the story of Riv/June 4th but never from you. God gave you a safe space. I'm glad he gave that to you and hope it offered you peace ❤
I love you Granger Smith you're the best
God gave you a huge platform so you could reach so many people... You were created for this very moment!!! You know, it's a good sermon when you crave more.... I need more! Thank you!! 🙌💕
Thank you for sharing this Granger. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Yes please!!! More of this!!!
Granger what a powerful sermon. 🙏🏻 I hope we hear many more sermons from you in the future.
Thank u for delivering God's word. I needed this
Good job on your sermon Granger. You share a good message and help me with my life problems. You also help me cope with the death of my best friend that happend two months after your son River passed. That best friend introduced me to your music years ago. God makes things connect and happen for his purpose. For that I feel joy and blessed
That was the best sermon I've ever heard my brother in Christ I loved it and thank you so much for sharing this!!!
Congrats on the pregnancy!!!!
Granger thank you so much for this you touched me so deeply with this. This was something I needed so bad I am going trout a very deep trial right now and everything is at stake. This opened my eyes even more to God. Thank you. I wish I could talk to you as I need more advice More guidance. I found God again about 6-8 months ago and have not looked back. But I need the next steps I need to go deep in faith now. You just hit something in me tonight not sure what but I need to find out.
Thank you. God Bless you and your family.
