We Are YWAM - Promo

[musicalnomad8]

I know I enjoyed my time working with YWAM. I did a DTS and an SOW. It has really shown me that I have a heart to work in missions and to share God's love in this way. I am open to working with different ministries but I will always appreciate what God has done in my life through that time. I look forward to continuing to live missionally.

[Myflixx]

For the skeptics, I have just finished my DTS & SOE at the Tyler TX. campus. I have never been among such loving Godly people. I have alot of bad experiences with the christian community, yet there they showed me true love, true community, and the true God. I was surrounded by brilliant people who love, know, and teach about God, and also bring in extraordinary teachers. Even teachers that dont share the same view points. This allows you to make your own decisions and viewpoints. YWAM rules.

[preparetheway1]

@Myflixx Thank you sooo much for this report!!!

My daugher (18) plans to join YWAM in Uganda a year hence. We are from Vienna, Austria (Europe)

Of course I'm very happy and excited for her ... but concerned anyway. I'm a Mom, you know? ;) <3

[Myflixx]

@preparetheway1 No problem! I just want to tell everyone the truth! And as for your daughter she is going to be so astonished by everything she witnesses and see's. Regardless as to where she is in her faith she is going to grow and just amaze you. My mum was worried too, very worried in fact. I was 18 when i first went, Just a few weeks out from graduating highschool. In fact Im glad your concerned just because that shows your a loving and caring mum. And there is nothing greater than that.

[Jospehporta]

Read a lot about this. Seems to be cultish and prays on the weak of mind.

[lifetrips]

YWAM = BUNCH OF BUMS LIVING FROM "DONATIONS" OF FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CHURCH, TRYING TO BE "COOL" IN THE WORLD AND THINK THEY ARE "BETTER" AND "HAPPIER" THAN THE REST BY HAVING THAT "BUM-HIPPIE-COMMUNITY LIFESTYLE"

YWAM SUCKS! DTS = EXPENSIVE CRAPPY "EDUCATION" (SPEND THAT MONEY ON REAL EDUCATION (A REAL CERTIFICATE) AND BE PRODUCTIVE IN THE REAL WORLD) THAN WASTING TIME & MONEY WITH AN ABUSIVE CONTROLLING CULT.

[NevilleRhysBarnes]

Does YWAM still preach homophobia? Is it still creationist?

--Because if it hasn't outgrown those particular stupidities, then you shouldn't waste time on it.

[kreativememories71]

My parents have been a part of ywam for years since 1989, and I have to say they are feeled with the spirit. My is a cook, I agree with what one had wrote, there maybe those that are not and then those that are. the ywam ministries have helped many people. Who I we to judge?

[SuperCutt]

Fuck YWAM.. They're a total cult. I went through their DTS in Kailua-Kona in Hawaii. They teach you to ultra revere your leadership there. I remember when we met Loren Cunningham's wife, they treated the moment as if we should worship her for having the honor.. They're a spiritually abusive, guilt tripping and hypocritical cult. Avoid at all costs. If you want to know God, just pick up a Bible and read it.

[SuperCutt]

@bloomingdedalus wow... Are you serious!!?

[pimaggot]

Ywam has helped so many people in the world. If they were more open with finances and distribution of financial contributions it would go a long way toward disspelling haters that claim it to be a cult.

[SteenJdaPenspinna]

You cant call a whole organisation absusiv if some are. Therer are also some christians that abuse people! You need to make a difference. Some people are filled with the holy spirit some are not

[jonwalliser]

Dear Jesus thank you for all those who daily live totally for you, who care not for money and riches but only in reaching those in need for you. I pray that YWAM would be a tool used by You to spread love and hope and endless joy to all who encounter them

[jonwalliser]

I have a sister in YWAM and I have never seen her shine for God so bright, i love her dearly and I know she is reaching many for Christ.

[jonwalliser]

I love this, praise God for those that are focused so much on Him and dont let the world sway them

[Longe]

YWAM is a controlling, manipulative CULT! Beware!

[Teshonn]

well, i can definitely testify that it is not a cult in any manner.

[Longe]

@Teshonn People in cults never think they are!

[Longe]

I was in the cult of YWAM for 12 years! It is spiritually & emotionally ABUSIVE!

[Longe]

I was in the cult of YWAM for 12 years! It is spiritually & emotionally ABUSIVE! 

[Burreyito]

@Longe I was in ywam, too, it´s not what you say. Please, forgive those people who hurted you in some way and go on. I support ywam, it is not perfect, but God is.

[Longe]

@Burreyito I was in YWAM 12 years- long enough to know what I am talking about! Do you say that about Mormons, Scientology, JWs & Islam too? "it is not perfect, but God is" YWAM IS a C U L T !!!

[brigite39]

I am a ywamer! For 21 years.... Thank you Lord!

[sirleijr]

[saulofers]

[carebearkidd]

im going my dts next year go ywam

[disciple254]

why in the world would you say that? From what I have seen their doctrines are very good and they are reaching out to those that need to be reached.

[bradfreak]

Ako Ay YWAM!!!

"To know God and Make him Known"

[oneloved1]

YWAM is NOT a cult! Youth With A Mission has short and long-term staff from all over the world, and thousands of different denominations. They all hold different cultural and theological beliefs, but the one thing they all agree on is Jesus is Lord, His heart breaks for the hurting all over the world, and we are His hands and feet to reach out to them.

[cfmonkey454]

Lolwut?

YWAM is an evangelical christian missionary group who's purpose is to preach the gospel to the people's of the earth.

[johnandmichelleconno]

Helping those who are not Christians is the focus of YWAM - and we are doing it where ever we can, our limits are the number of people and the resources to do it.

[jamieroko]

I hope you still help people even if they don't want to become Christians ...

[ilexvunibola]

yes we do!

[y2kevin069]

I'm building houses in Tijuana May '08!!

[viogiti]

you guys are awesome...thanks for all your effort and hard work on this project.  Keep up the incredible work that you do.

[kanatsky25]

nice video!Im missionary here in korea can anyone join YWAM!regardless of their denomination?

[unclebuckshot]

Yes you can! Come and do a DTS!

[dvoncannon97]

this is great! Good job! This is much better than most YWAM video things I have seen!

[TheDragoman]

Great pictures and videos but we can't use them (even if we very much need) in the Evangelical communities in Eastern Europe/Romania. This is because of men wearing earrings and of the western style. Please keep this in mind for the future promo videos. Thanks.

[mtnmama07]

It's made for YWAMers to promote YWAM and get people interested. I don't understand how that can be "too self-congratulatory."

[kevincolyer]

Very sorry - but I really don't like it - too self congratulatory and not gritty enough. It will appeal to a North American Audience primarily. Not broad enough.

[unclebuckshot]

This is so helpful... thank-you so much!

[prh2906]

Great job!

[ywamderby]

Excellent

[Hezekiah707]

Great job Procla-media...very well done!

[rawmotion]

Very nice...
