  • well, this is our challenge! Why AREN'T his arms reaching? TOLERANCE, my friends, TOLERANCE! Bless us all...

  • Comment removed

  • This is another powerful song by CC and you did an excellent job on the vid. I only wish I (we) could answer their questions...

  • such a simple video, such an important message!!

  • WWJD? pick up a hitchhiker

  • Jesus payy much to high a price for us to pick and chose who should come...wow amazing what God says to us and how he affects our lives/

  • In EVERYTHING you do. Make it glorify god. IF YOU DONT KNOW this father, if you dont know him ... (sheds a tear) you're missing out. You can believe in a god all your life and DIE WITHOUT EVER KNOWING HIM. TRUST ME, when i say this. Every time a christian says they love god, god is awesome, gods doing heaps for me, yet knows him no more than a name; they are lost and they are effectively lying to god, and to each and EVERY person around them.

    If you are someone like that, FIND PROOF. He EXISTS.

  • When Jesus returns will he be in nice clothes at the First Baptist Church or will be he be at the Union Gospel mission downtown?

  • @MrJohanasBilderberg thats a good ?

  • i love god with all my heart

  • This actually brought tears to my eyes!!

    It saddens my heart to see this and to know that I have been just a guilty of this. Lord forgive me, Let me live for You and You alone.

  • nicely done. :)

  • this is a great video.

  • God is so great I got cold chills just watching and foundt myself crying jesus is king of kings

  • god is in all of us i believen him this song is awesome god bless casting crowns and us all!!!!

  • When we are part of the Church we strive to be more like him and less like the world.

    Lord take me away to that place where are the only thing in my life nothing else reigns but you. I am a sinner Saved by Grace its my Faith that gets me through the day. And helps me reach out to others And help them

  • I can answer all of the questions the singer asks in this song with just four simple words. THERE IS NO GOD.

  • @MiracleChild91 But there is a God. A God who loves you inspite of you not acknowledging His existence. A God who every one will bow down to some day. A God deserving all glory, all praise and adoration for who He is. I pray that God reveals Himself to you. Amen.

  • @Galatians112 Look at all the shit that's going on! 9/11, the Casey Anthony murder trail . . . If you can prove to me that God is real, I'll cut my own dick off.

  • Comment removed

  • @MiracleChild91

    In God's own time, He will show you that He is real. And God won't tell you to cut anything off.... salvation is a free gift to everybody. The evil that goes on in this world is not from God, it's from the devil. If God were to abandon us here on earth, what you think is evil now, won't even be close to how bad it could get without God limiting the devil's control. The evil going on in this world, and that me and you are alive is proof of God's existence and His love and mercy.

  • @Galatians112 I was being sarcastic, you dumb fuck!

  • I'm 14, last week i got the honor of doing a sermon. After i said my sermon i got to choose the song we'd sing, i choose this one <3

  • haha this was good!!

  • Romans 14-15:13 Mathews 5:43 Mark, John, Jude 24, 2samuel, 1 samuel, 1 kings, etc., etc., etc.,etc.

  • this was done so well true to the song God bless you! :)

  • On my channel, I have a website listed that really does a good job of explaining the gospel and salvation. Its the scribd one (for any who are interested).

  • This reminded me of a judgemental clique in my sunday school. They have 1 good example and she is the only one who accepts me. They are the reasons they don't see me in sunday school class anymore. I got sick of their judgemental looks like I'm a piece of garbage, and the isolation. When I heard this song I just cryed. If they are reading this don't expect me coming back soon. Church is not a fashion show or gossip central. Quit being hypocrits and judge yourself b4 u judge me.

  • OMG SOOOOOOO COOL i AM IN AN FBCN IN FL TOO!!!!! REALLY COOL!!!!

  • What happened to the homeless person?

  • Hmmm, Reminds me of Dayton, Ohio

  • awesome ... I think this is one of the best christian videos' i've ever seen ... absolutely perfect ... i dont think they would have made a video better than this even if they had the chance rather they dint make so i think the credit goes to you ... awesome work ... you showed me the meaning of the song and made me ask myself a question and realise a lotta things about me and my faith. thanks a lot man .. keep up the good work .. god bless you .. :)

    \e/

  • This happens everyday at churches across America.... Lost people are dieing becaus us christians are not evangelising like we should be. Thumbs Up to help give our fellow brother and sisters in Christ the courage to evangelise like we should and how Godwants us to

  • you dont know how many times I walked into churches and I go that same exact treatment. stares Like I walked into a family reunion. Like I basicaly didn't belong

  • @allinyourface777 you are so right I know how you feel 

  • Pray for those who felt compelled to dislike this video. Want to reach arms out to them.

  • This is a great video. I think a lot of the problems with teens is that their parents don't make their kids be nice.Our mom is always reminding us to go say hi to a new kid or ask someone to do something that we wouldn't think of on our own. You aren't going to change things until kids get older and more mature.There is such a breakdown of the family and that's why kids are so mean. Videos like this help - but when adults keep lecturing about inclusion, etc..it doens't help

  • Inspiring, moving. Awsome lyrics, great message.

  • I really like this song and when I first was saved I'm glad I was at a place where people was coming up to me and made me feel welcome. Great video

  • This video inspires me to make sure that nobody is ignored. I remember when i first went to church and everybody ignored me, i felt left out, but i never lost faith in the lord. Now i pray that i won't ignore anybody the same way i was. I really want to help people and show them that God does care.

  • to bad the church today has become corrupted with judgmental believers. the same thing washappening when Jesus was alive only the believers back then were called pharasese (hope i spelled it right). thats why Jesus ate wih the sinners and outcasts of society to prove a point.

  • great job!!! this was a blessing. i feel convicted and appreciate this video. i already liked the song but the video just put a more tangible perspective on it . thanks for posting !!

  • this song makes me cry sosmetimes

  • I love this video very moving

  • i am thinkin of singin this at my church vote up if i should

  • @rookscomptech Go for it kid! I love this song, I love Christian music, and if non- believers hear this song, I sure hope they will believe in God! I don't like the idea that some dude made the "religion" Athiest! I honestly hate them so much! Why can't everyone believe? We would have a much better world!

  • @MusicForU99 They have plenty of hate already, prayer is what they need.

    Matthew 5:44-45 "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust."

  • That was a touching video definitely would be the Bands video amazing.

  • THIS IS AWESOME!!! It helps bring a better understanding of what we need to do as the Body of Christ...and it also shows the dangers of failing to do so. God bless you for making this wonderful video!!!!!!!!!!

  • WHO R THE 22 PPL WHO DNT LIKE THIS??????

  • @CastingCrownsLuver I totally agree

  • @CastingCrownsLuver don't know... probably Bieber fans who somehow wound up here and didn't like cause it didn't have him in it... but yeah this is an awesome video!

  • @guitarist4196 LOL Probably..........Whats the big deal about him anyways????

  • @CastingCrownsLuver well have you heard him sing? if you have you would probably know lol

  • I love that video... thank you so much... my faith has been failing lately, and I was literally brought to tears by that... god bless you all

  • the power of god is more powerful than we could ever imagine. alone we can do so little with god we can do so much more

  • this video is a very strong message there should be no bigotry in chrtistianity we are all as one in his service and he knows we are all worth the same in heaven

  • Where is UFC?

  • @tanealleox UCF is in Orlando, FL

  • This video is awesome, it touched my heart, So sadly many Christians do treat people like this when they come into the church. We are not to condemn or judge others. We are to be lights that bring the lost and afflicted in. We are the body, and we are to reach others for Christ!

    Thanks so much for this video great job! I believe it will impact lives. God Bless You!!

  • Really amazing video youve made, good job. I can relate to this so well, the focus of church and worship should be on God and love in the church body cause God is love and thats what he wants for us to realize and act upon.

  • I really think this group are fantastic. Regardless of one's denomination one can enjoy this group. At 43 I may be a little bit too old for this, but hey I just like it. Deserve all the success they get.

  • I loved how you took an already great song and put real-life experiences in it! It was something we all could relate to, or of which we heard. I will admit I've judged people, I've laughed at them, but am beginning to realize my part as the Body is bigger than I think, but I can't be so proud as to ignore the other members of the Body--we all have a role to play!! BLESS YOU

  • this video has a very special meaning behind it to me. if you don't make someone welcome, it could be worse than you think. that happened to someone at our church, and that the Lord they came back. thank you Lord. ( i'm not using the Lord's name in vein ). i love YOU Jesus.

  • brilliant

  • Praise GOD!!!!!!!!!

  • Well done! Powerful song, powerful video, We must be the body, willing to let every soul know they are loved by Christ!

  • This was nicely done

  • I love this song it's so good and then u put a video to go along with that

  • sad how some church/religions dont embrace others for the lord. instead they judge/fault find & reject others who r in need of God's love & understanding. God is love & would not approve of the ones who r supposed to b representing him & instead their heart's r not really true to the lord or others.

  • We dont have much time left, and neither do they, reach the lost

  • this was heart touching an really reached out to me. thank you so much.

  • this song is perfect! the video makes me sad becasue people are lie this and when the body doesnt love like jesus we could drive someone away from God. instead of bring them To our God!

  • This song and video speaks the truth about what is being seen in the churches. Many professed christians don't know Jesus from a can of worms. I will never forget all the hatred and rejection from many christians I have encountered.

  • this is a great vid

  • And this ones for the rest of us.....

  • i love this video and i love jesus christ trust in god our 

  • watch the video

  • if u love and trust in jesus u will no what this means

  • Good job on this video!

  • Good job, rayman71. Keep up the good work. Very well done! The video fit the song excellently. :-)

  • LOL yes it was filmed at UCF. Hello fellow Knight!

  • Great job with this video! I think it hits the point well. I have always liked this song, and now I have a video that I can associate with it. Yeas, it may not be an "official" music video, but I think that you did really well with capturing the message of the song! Thanks for making this!

  • i love this song. and the video was well done too. looks like it was shot at UCF. am i right?

  • this song is saying Jesus did too much for us, for us to sit on our butts acting like the world; we need to tell people God loves them no matter what they say and do,

    We need to start living like Christ by helping world problems like poverty and slavery.

    And show people we care

    like it says in 1corinthians 12:24-27

    without 1 part the body won't work and that's the same with the church.

    If we love someone, we will always be nice to them, and we are suppose to love every one through Christ.

  • Jesus said its by showing Christ like love that people will recognize him as his followers. Im not sure what verse that is in the Bible Im no theologian just a young teenager. but I know that striving to be that shining example of Christ like love is awesome. When you see that love its Un-mistakable. Come on everyone lets all strive to bring eachother up and show everyone how great our saviour is !

  • @Fluffie14 ......You're going in the right direction. Don't stray from that path. And you don't need to be a theologian to be able to look up a Bible verse. Just remember to stay in the Word (Bible).

  • this is probably the truest song in the entire world. Jesus DID pay MUCH TOO HIGH a price.... but i dont really get "for us to pick and choose who to come." does it mean come to heaven? because i dont believe that anyone really goes to hell...

  • @purplemonkey303 ....Just as there is a Heaven, there IS a Hell. And, yes, people DO go to Hell. But God doesn't send them there.....people choose to go there. They choose to go there by rejecting Jesus Christ. If you don't accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior, then you can't/won't go to Heaven. That's it in a nut shell. And that's the truth!!

  • @jankbass well you believe your way, i'll believe mine. I just don't believe that anyone really GOES to hell. i mean, if u reject Jesus then idk if u go to heaven, but if u don't KNOW about Jesus and u aren't save and then u die, why should you go to hell?

  • I remember when I went to a catholic church, I have social anxdy so I can't make eye contact, most people would make fun of me and say really hateful things about me, I can't believe it took me three months after that to realize that it wasn't a church at all, it was just a orginization

  • My fellow Christians, Yeshua, whom you call Jesus did not suffer so that you may countinue in your sins, "Repent and be babtised"

  • Some dies every two seconds... and most people go to hell, even some people who belong to churches and say their Christians, most people don't take the time to pray to Jesus, most people choose money over Jesus, but remember this "It is harder for a rich man to get into Heaven than a camel to get through an eye of a nedle

  • A boy from my school just committed suicide..... the body of Christ needs to reach out to people, no matter wha!! This is OUR Christian duty to teach HIS word!!!! We need to think of others for HE gave his only begotten son for us, we are HIS people and we need to be less selfish!!! TEACH THE WORD OF GOD BEFORE IT IS TO LATE!!!!!!!!! Nobody needs to die without the LORD in their hearts, they need us as well as they need HIM

  • i love this sonnnnng. it makes me cry especially with the video. its so sad.

  • cheesy video, but this song is great

    it's so true, Christians just go through the motions so often, they never get to the loving, they just go to "church" and nothing else

    no, we go to a building where we have church, CHURCH is what we do, it's the Bible study, the evangelism, more importantly, the love, the serving, the shining of our light

  • @R0BERTP0 we ARE the church. the body of Christ makes up a church and we are selfish people, and that is what this song is all about

  • what a beautiful video

  • EXCELENT video,i ask the lord to forgive us ,to take us out of our comfort zone,and really showing that love that our savior has given us,instead of judging people and think that we are super duper saints,go out and share what the lord has done in our lifes,acting upon his word not just hearers but doers of the word of GOD,I THINK THAT LORD WANT US to wake up and realy do his will,not just receving but giving what we have received by grace,other wise we are lost,thank you lord for this song

  • God welcomes everyone into his house. You can always come to church and expect welcomes from the members. That is the way it should be. God intends for everyone to be welcomed into his house.

  • Isaiah 55:1

    Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

    Let all who are hungry come and eat of Jesus Christ!

    John 3:16

    For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    Jesus Christ is truly Lord Savior and Master! Jesus is the way to LOVE!

  • These problems are not only in 'mega-churches' but are widespread throughout the body of Christ..... every one of us as believers have the responsibility of showing God's love to those around us.... whether we are inside the church building or out.... we should all ask oourselves 'Am I doing what I can to show those I come in contact with the Love of Christ?'

  • really good, god bless

  • I love this song from Casting Crowns. The original poster of this video stated this was not from casting crowns, but if they had produced it, it MAY look something like this. Sadly enough, from someone successful or not, this is how some of us are to the rest of the world. This video almost brought me to tears. We need or should unite as one under God. Let's give God the glory. I love you all. Jim

  • great vid great song GREAT GOD!!!!!!!  his humble servant, david

  • This song is very true. I love this song and there is some boys in the youth group @ my church who did that 2 me but they don't do that anymore.

  • Awesome job - love it!

  • This video is great and should be shared with many many people. @ TheLavonne74 trust me don't let a few bad apples keep you from you're blessings and you're place in the kingdom of heaven. Were as we even as Christians are still yet human. Jesus even spoke of the seven churches and he found fault with all but one. So don't associate with the ones who are that way just pray for them. And suround yourself with the ones who show compassion and Gods love.

  • Wow nice job!

  • Exactly how I pictured it!

  • This was very nicely done...I really like it..I wish there were Christians around me to reach out but I keep running because they act worse than I do and My theory is with Christians like that I would rather not be one. I would rather sin and know I am going to hell and be able to treat my neighbor with respect than be a christian and treat them like crap. Sigh

  • I love the message of this song! It has a lot of truth in it...which makes the message even more powerful!!! The fact is is that so many church bodies don't openly accept people in their body of worshipers...it sort of reminds me of high school, with all the different cliques and what not. THIS SONG IS SO POWERFUL, AND I LOVE IT!

  • This song is sooo true. Lots of churches and communities of Christ need to come together and show their love to those who aren't involved to make the body of Him bigger and stronger!

  • aquaglow2, I have no idea. I recommend just putting in the lyrics on google or here on youtube and see what you find.

  • I really could believe this was the 'official' video, it fits the song so well.

  • Awesome song and message!!!!

  • what is the name of the song that goes: I wanna give this up, i wanna hold ur hand, take away this fear thats like an ocean in my hand...? I can't figure it out!

  • did i tell THE VIDEO IS AWESOME

  • How many times have visitors come to church and get ignored. I've been told, "how do we know". My answer is, "do you know them? If not, go introduce yourself and ask. If you do, go say hello." It also irks me though when your trying to pray at the altar and people are in the sanctuary being loud. But that's just me.

  • To those of you who didnt get it, we are the body. why arent his arms reaching? feet moving? words teaching? love healing? BECUASE. WE ARE SUPPPOSED TO DO THAT. we are the arms , legs, hands, feet, LOVE. we are jesus love. yet with abortions, fights, greed, and treating our vets like dirt, arent we setting such a GOOD EXAMPLE for those who dont know?

  • you did a really good job on this video its true that people shunn away people of color or poor people

  • I love this song because I feel it sings about our Spiritual Gifts. Christians receive different ones accordingly from the Holy Spirit and should be used for his Glory.

  • what a nice message

  • This song makes me cry...

  • This is way better than anyone could do with this "unoficial music video"!!! I'm starting to cry at the end!!! That's how everyone should be!!! :')

  • We can start Now  : )

  • this so true for us we should want more people to come and want to learn about god!!!

  • Dude, I don't know who you are, but you are so wrong - this is an ABSOLUTELY AWESOME video. Great job! I don't think the band could have done any better. God bless you and thank you for the beautiful video. :-)

  • As in jesus's parable with the priest and the tax colector, jesus say him self that those who raise them selves shall be humbled and those who humble them selves shall be raised by the lord.

  • gr8 job on the video.. love this song!

  • good job!!

  • everytime i watch this and i see the people move away from the man sittin in the pew, my heart just sinks, i hate it :(

  • ty for making this. bringed tears to me eyes.. tahts real y i desire is to be welcomed with open arms by christians taht arnt just trying to convert me or take my money. i love jesus. and want to see more of taht love where ever i go. i feel like its so hidden. and forgotten. but anyway, thanks for this video.

  • I'm ashamed to admit when I first heard this song, I was quick to point a finger at so many other people in my church. As I grew up and really started to listen to the meaning, I realized that this song was as much about me as it was about those other people. We, myself included, need to stop being self-righteous Christians. We need to be the hands and feet of Christ, we need to be humbled and awed that God has loved us so much as to allow His Son to be nailed to a cross in our place!

  • Dis video is the best I cried a lot good video

  • @puckthefool ur rite very good I agree wit u jus go to church n worship him not to criticize other ppl

  • This video is perfect for this song!

  • This song is so true. Us Christians have lost the value of what church is SUPPOSED to be. Not a showing of your new dress or to look good for the neighbors, but to come and worship and feel the love of god and the beautiful radiance of Jesus Christ. Church was meant to come together and to recharge our spiritual battery.

  • Praise the Lord...that was incredible...I was brought to tears...that is an amazing video...very well done!

  • good song. Praise the Lord!

  • I love this song and video. I want to use it at my ladies fellowship group - it goes with my message - but we don't have internet access at the church. Is there any way to save this to a flash drive?? Thanks again for a great video with a very important message!

  • Nothing but HYPOCRITES in a Church. They serve man not God. Jesus said were 2 or more are gathered in my name their I will be also. Casting Crowns see this.. Churches are for GREED not NEED...again they serve MAN not God. What does Matthew say ? God help you all..Matthew 7: 13 - 29 You serve MAN...

  • WOW, i thought he was saying

    "if we are the body why are his hands reaching"

    then i realized he's saying why ARENT

    thats really convicting but motivating at the same time

  • this honestly just made me cry... amazing video! :D

  • This vid was shared with me so I watch and I now wish I were a musician so I could make a proper response but just let me say this, I am NOT the body! Defintively NOT at all the body. But I give 5 syars because I respect the work that went into it and from an unbiased perspective, It was pretty well done!

  • One of the best videos / songs ever! A message that really needs to be considered by the church!

  • Kickass video ChristianNewsWatch! I took down my Dogs of Lust for this one!!!

  • this is a reply to casting crowns if we are the body. If u want to go to church just call the church and have them pick u up? And they will also drop u back off. If they don't have avan someone in the church would b more than happy to do so.Trust in God and know if it's for ur good it will b =)

  • This is a really good video! good job. God bless you.

  • I wish that some one would take me to church.......My mom isnt able to.....and my dad cant drive =\

  • @theferguson95 that sucks man

    just pray for it

    but for now, just read the bible until God answers your prayer

  • I think here is a solution for this problem:

    Simple Home Churches (the Bible- and Jesus-Centered ones)

    watch?v=10ZIMJU3DhU

    We have to go back to the NT churches Jesus talked about.

    A 24/7 Lifestyle. To allow the HS doing His way, staying out of His way.

  • Great job!

  • Oh. My. Gosh. THAT. IS. AWESOME!

    It actually made me cry, which is amazing, because I rarely do.

    Also, it is so awesome, you can almost swear that Casting Crowns made this video.

    FIVESTARS!

  • This song / video represents the problems of institutionalized megachurches where the CEO-pastors are unreachable after services during the weekdays. Biblical churches intended to be held DAILY at simple homes with meal, talking in an informal "family" way. If anybody had a song, teaching, encouragement, prophecy, tongues, he could use his gifts. It was not a show of the "professionals" but was a family-like gathering with an open atmosphere, reaching out to the poor, orphans, widows...

  • @vattee There is a book it's called "And the shofar blew" i think or something like that. It is telling the story of a young pastor full of energy and will to change the world. But he also wants to please his Dad who is one of the most famous preacher/pastor in California (i guess). The book is very interesting and the process through which this young pastor went to learn to please GOD, not people, is really interesting. I think it's a must-read for all Christians.

  • @vattee This isnt just a "mega church" issue, this is an issue with the church period. The same treatment has been done at home churchs as well. When the Body understands that it's really for sinners and not believers, then this will go away. Jesus said it the best in Matthew 9:13 - For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners. I'm not worried about the saved man at church, I'm worried about the un-saved.

  • @vattee SOOOOO True

  • love it!Favorite song!
