  Pastor David your not a failer. My son did the same thing.  I still took him into my home. That was the best thing I did instead of rejecting him. They never got married   but I have two beautiful teenage grandchildren.

  Thank-you brother.....I'm a pastor from Canada.  I went through a horrifying period of unimaginable anxiety/depression.  My church saw me at my absolute weakest.  As I stayed vulnerable with them, they never abandoned me; though I still pastor with a limp.  People will be more open and honest with us, as pastors,  when they know what we've been through.  I'm sure you must also have had people opening their hearts to you and felt safe, as they saw what you had been through.  I appreciated your radiant conclusion!

  The pain of betrayal and condemnation from our brothers and sisters at times seems to be to much to bear.  I've experienced that as well.  Sadly enough, this kind of evil in the church is more common then we want to admit.  Yet, brother, your testimony in how God has seen you through this has been not only a blessing to you, but also to your biological family and your brothers and sisters in the Lord.  The victory that you share is a hope that runs deep for all who have been treated like you have. Your trust in the Lord Jesus as told by you in this video is an inspiration for all.  Your pain was deep, but you have experienced God's grace in your life runs  even deeper.  Your message will touch others at a depth that is needed in their lives. God bless.

  Yes prolife, God loves all children. We are the ones that sin but God died as we were yet sinners. God is faithful.

  As a Pastor it has been a hard lesson how some people only want to complain and hurt you personally.

  I hear you pastor! I have pastored over 50 years and the pain can be unbearable. Yet, I'm still standing by the grace of God. God bless you, sir.

  Pastor David, it was your teachings that moved my heart to give my life to Christ close to 20 years ago.. you were the person that baptized me in the pool. I just want to say thank you, for being the man of God that you are. You have stayed on the narrow  path and have not led your flock astray.. God Bless You 🙏🩷
