Watch it all. A good reminder, I thought, that the gospel is intended to transform.

This is very powerful. Thanks, Kendall.
Brought me to tears…cuts right to the heart…yes, very powerful!
The tears were flowing here, too. I went to find it in youtube and send it to some friends. There are a whole bunch of them there! Remarkable!
Devastatingly simple testimony. Very moving
WOW!!
I was glad to see these comments because they reflect a reaction similar to mine. It’s simple, to the point, but somehow heart-rending. Definitely made me cry.
Kendall,
Thank you. I sat and sobbed. No exaggeration. Exactly what I needed today.
Powerful. I have emailed the link to several friends and family. I pray that it touches them as much as it touched me.
I had passed this by until I saw all of your comments. Thank you for them. Transforming is what I can remember. He does, and He will. And sometimes – no all the time – that is scary, but is is the only thing that provides ” that peace that passes all understanding.” Wish I could remember that everyday.
Reminds me of St. Paul’s words to the Corinthians that his message was not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of Spirit and power.
Kendall, thank you very much for posting that. It made me want to live for Jesus more.
What a wonderful post and a reminder of the awesome grace of our God. I too was crying as I watched it. It was incredible to see the people and the testimonies keep coming. And it challenged me. What would I write? What testimony do I have about the Lord’s work in my life and heart? Is God’s grace still real to me or do I treat my “testimony” as “past history”?
awesome
I watched “Cardboard Testimonies” before I left for work this morning and as I drove I practiced reducing the wondrous transformation the Lord has wrought in my life to my “cardboard.” God is good…all the time! I cried most of the way to work. I’ve emailed this to my priests and others!
An awesome and moving testimony. If this is our welcoming committee in the great hereafter, we will be in grand company indeed, by the grace and mercy of God.

I must admit this, though – the cruellest cut for me was the leader/pastor/etc’s remarks about financial support of your local church. It sometimes makes me very angry that this messed-up wreck of a denomination has made it impossible for me to give to my parish’s general fund (particularly now, since I know that we are running at a deficit). I give to the building fund, but only under the assurance of my pastor that the building fund is not counted in the diocesan assessment.
(We now return you to our regular thread)
I would need a pretty big piece of cardboard…..
no bigger than mine Dana!
