    This is for a lot of pastors !!!

    I really searched for this topic and found this video. I’ve been following pastor Craig Groeschel since i started reading his plans on the Youversion bible app. Loving difficult people is easier said than done honestly. My situation is even more complex because i come from a family that isn’t Christian. I’ve been struggling to find the right way to deal with certain situations, but this sermon has given me some clarity. Please do pray for me to handle difficult people and circumstances with our heavenly father’s love.

    It’s not that easy but I feel bad afterwards when I have cursed

    The most difficult thing is every job I’ve ever worked at has 2 or 3 people that gossip and lie about me as well as other coworkers. Everytime I go to work I have to deal with their rude remarks and use every ounce of my patience to speak kindly to them and I can feel their happiness that I’m not fighting back. It drains me and then I have to recharge on my days off by praying and reading God’s word only to come back and experience it all over again. I even bring the Bible with me to work because reading it provides a bit of peace. I notice that my coworkers are less likely to speak rudely if I read the Bible right in front of them.

    I hit play with tons of anger in my heart, but I was humbled in minute 24:30 – It hits way too close home! Though this video is years old, I do believe that God’s word and message is alive -He reprimands me at this very moment. Thanks for sharing this video – I am blessed.

  6. @DeborahBLUE-h4k on June 27, 2025 at 10:31 pm

    Its is what I do now. However, before my brain healed, I was using wrong words
    I apologized to my family. My children won’t let it go ?

    It is always those members calling me horrible things . They will not talk to me
    . Except my Jennifer, and Schuyler.

    An Angry person doesnt do what God approves of
    James 1 vs 20

  8. @latoyajackson8686 on June 27, 2025 at 10:38 pm

    This is so Good. Thank you Pastor Craig. Praise God. This message helps me with my Co-worker for sure and myself

  9. @toddsgreatoutdoors4226 on June 27, 2025 at 10:39 pm

  10. @kaye-annwood9204 on June 27, 2025 at 10:39 pm

    Love this eye opening message from God’s Word! ❤

  11. @Solar-Busters on June 27, 2025 at 10:40 pm

    I believe that Pastors need to apologize as well & ask for forgiveness & grace to those whom they have offended & hurt but they do not do that do they ?

  12. @jessicajones3377 on June 27, 2025 at 10:40 pm

    Righteous anger in my heart means that you become angry to defend what is Gods goodness truth or word

  13. @yohanaorellana8742 on June 27, 2025 at 10:41 pm

    I needed to hear this today. Thank you God for your absolute forgiveness and love. Let my love my neighbor and my compassion and kindness flow.

  14. @moreheadrosita7 on June 27, 2025 at 10:42 pm

    Those only people who are ignorant

  15. @babsskett2757 on June 27, 2025 at 10:44 pm

    Absolutely brilliant message. Many thanks
    God bless you.

  16. @maryanneviola752 on June 27, 2025 at 10:44 pm

    I think we’re all "one of those people" to someone.

  17. @JavierHernandez-pc3gu on June 27, 2025 at 10:47 pm

    Distinction on “righteous anger”

    You compared it to actual sins but anger isn’t a sin. Just don’t SIN in your anger.

    Your anger might be justified but your sin following your anger isn’t.

  18. @LauraNicole-q4u on June 27, 2025 at 10:49 pm

    Yes I will pray it

  19. @Brooklyn-h1i4p on June 27, 2025 at 10:53 pm

    I will listen to god

  20. @BrandonShepherd-rk2lq on June 27, 2025 at 10:53 pm

    We need prayers for a home and family please

  21. @24converted on June 27, 2025 at 10:55 pm

    I’ve surrendered my life to Jesus.

  22. @BrandonShepherd-rk2lq on June 27, 2025 at 10:55 pm

    I give all to God and pray and talk to God not just pray in bad time’s but praise God , thank God for the good time’s.

  23. @christineferguson845 on June 27, 2025 at 11:01 pm

    May I ask when does it become abuse? Where is the line when you have repeatedly expressed your feelings to have them dismissed? How many more years of forgiveness and allowing family and friends to treat you any wat they want because they think you will continue to forgive and let their behaviour slide….please help me with this.

  24. @SistahJay27 on June 27, 2025 at 11:01 pm

    Thank you Pastor Craig
    Jesus. This sermon truly blessed me. I needed to hear this message today. Lord have mercy Jesus

  25. @susanjones8062 on June 27, 2025 at 11:02 pm

    What a great sermon (word). So true about all our lives. Dear Father it says in your word that ‘your word will not return void’. This would have to be one of the most powerful words I have heard preached. Praise God.

  26. @alanrothwell117 on June 27, 2025 at 11:02 pm

    So love the on target messages Craig delivers, and he does an amazing job!

  27. @RetaAhrens on June 27, 2025 at 11:02 pm

    Praise god

  28. @candichagnon on June 27, 2025 at 11:04 pm

    I’m currently living with someone who I thought was a friend and he’s ALWAYS angry and grumpy. It’s so exhausting and he recently kicked me out for no reason and I’m just torn up about it. Nowhere to go with my dog I’m having a hard time in my life right now… please pray for me and my fur baby to find a stable home with people who love

  29. @LisaYarborough-b4t on June 27, 2025 at 11:04 pm

    Such a powerful sermon! Thank you for bringing this to light! God is SO GREAT!!

  30. @heidihicks2677 on June 27, 2025 at 11:06 pm

    So thankful for Christ. I want Him

  31. @jewishbride5010 on June 27, 2025 at 11:06 pm

    I was angry today untill I heard this message. While the children I teach were not at their worst and most of them surely did their best, I felt frustrated because of the behavior of a few, I hate I feel this way. I really thought today about how children can be seen as a blessing or a burden, I hated that thought as well. Nevertheless some people have difficult behavior and are testing others, while having no intention to participate, but to drain or rebel. Likewise with children, with a difference they are young and fresh in starting to learn the right behavior. With grown-ups that still don’t know how to behave I have less understanding, but I do hate it I find it difficult to truly love those people like I love my friends, whom in mine eyes are calm, understanding people who think about the meaning of life and how to treat one another at least. We are all so different, but what is my biggest error I ask? Lord, please help me to see where my expectations do not match reality, since I am knocking already for so long for an answer. Thank you Lord, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah, glory to God ❤.

  32. @alenrayen1028 on June 27, 2025 at 11:08 pm

    We all should be grateful to have Pastor Craig for his sermons, he’s putting a lot for us because he loves us, he’s worthy of lots of respect, love and admiration for his work. All of us need to pray for our Pastor Craig everyday! Friends. Everytime I watch pastor Craig’s sermon videos, I feel and cherish his heavenly smile with the love of Christ at the very end of the video welcoming believers with a pure heart! at 36:07

  33. @RetaAhrens on June 27, 2025 at 11:09 pm

    Amen

  34. @agentmaine8352 on June 27, 2025 at 11:12 pm

  35. @Theredeemedbychrist316 on June 27, 2025 at 11:12 pm

    Those people are all around my house

  36. @life.church on June 27, 2025 at 11:13 pm

    How do you typically respond when you get angry or offended?

  37. @DoctorCarrieHall on June 27, 2025 at 11:16 pm

    Good afternoon, studying with you.

  38. @Jay-bq2qj on June 27, 2025 at 11:18 pm

    As for me and my wife, we don’t meantion or even joke about divorce or cheating. We’re in it until we meet Jesus.

  39. @TazHall on June 27, 2025 at 11:20 pm

    Okay so if people can get away with wrong and abusive behavior at church, will that environment not become toxic? What was the point of that conflict resolution scripture in Matthew that says if your brother offends you you go to them and if it doesn’t work take a mediator and eventually the elders? At what point do you actually bring the word of God in and correct people for wrong are sinful Behavior? Are they just allowed to continue swinging their proverbial fists around hitting whoever they please? Why do I get corrected at church which has turned out to be my benefit, while the other person seems to get a free pass?

  40. @judycolbeth3293 on June 27, 2025 at 11:21 pm

    I’ll pray it
