I remember watching a documentary about an Amish man who got saved by Jesus, left his Amish community, and became a street preacher. At the time I was a mocker and an atheist. Years later, today, I too am a born again street preacher. Thank God for His mysterious plans.

As a Mennonite I’ve known quite a few Amish people, some are my relatives, and I’ve heard the stories of many of the Amish who converted to Christianity but this is the most humble and kind hearted testimony yet. I appreciate Andy and his message very much. Thank you for having that conversation with him and sharing it with us.

I grew up with good parents, but who did not know their bibles. But I had German Baptist neighbors which I stood with at the bus stop every school day. They forever affected my life.

Thank you Andy Weaver for your amazing story ,may the Lord bless you and keep you on your path.

This guy doesn't just have the courage of his convictions; he's also clearly extremely intelligent. Couple that with his demonstrable humility and his seeming lack of any anger or bitterness, and God can use him mightily.

I’ve seen an earlier interview with Andy and the sincerity and open heart, love for the humanity that he is talking with is a gift from God that should be cherished. God’s Spirit protect us all!

Woow!! What a beautiful inspiring interview!!.. I am touched when I see the Holy Spirit transforming lives in these last days... God's blessings to Pastor Andy, his family and West Salem Mission... I pray to be part of that Mission by God's grace!!.

Thankful of Andy's testimony. I love these series.

God is leading. Thank you Father.

I found this interview very very interesting! This reminds me that only Jesus and Him alone is our only hope. I really love this.

Fascinating interview! I just heard another interview with an Amish couple who left because of the Spiritual and Biblical questions they had, but more so because they wanted Jesus in their lives. They still appear to live simplistically. I’ve learned so much about the religious side of being Amish. I’m so glad that there are those who are learning Biblical truth, about a loving Savior, and how to serve Him.

I would love to see a movie of Amish to Adventist about Andy Weaver and his family. It is very inspiring how they accepted Truth in God's Word 🙏

Search a beautiful beautiful story.... Thank you both for sharing..... I have a young Amish family that I buy Windows from and I share just who I am in Christ with them and I pray for them. And I love them so much ❣️

I enjoyed listening to you both. I am a believer. The Amish life style has always fascinated me.

Yes, I love the Amish and Andy Weaver. I have a copy of his book and encourage everyone to buy a copy and share them with your Amish friends. I have given a copy to the head bishop in our area Amish community a friend of mine. We have room for these loving people. May God bless this mission!

Very good. This man had wisdom when leaving his Amish beliefs and I love how he respected his parents.

Amish women dress modest and classy. I appreciate that.

Great and so powerful! Praise God for the indiscriminate work of His Holy Spirit!

Thank you so much for this wonderful conversation between you and Andy Weaver. It was truly inspiring, informative and a blessing to watch.

I feel Andy's hunger to seek the Lord blessed him to truth through scripture may God bless you Andy more towards faith.

What an amazing 🤩 testimony!! I pray 🙏 the Lord will continue to bless both of you pastors and your families 😊

Such a blessing, Hallelujah ❤

What a wonderful testimony! God is good!

I think what impresses me the most is that he or his family didn’t get caught up in worldly things, like he very well could have, instead he held to his roots and kept living the same. God Bless!

I'd rather live like the Amish and live Jesus and know His Word, and have community than live like the world, live Jesus and have no community. I love the humble lifestyle of the Amish. It's not a bad idea, and Christ can be at the center, and the Holy Spirit can guide. 🙏

Great interview. I’ve always been a bit envious of the Amish lifestyle. They will be so prepared for the time of trouble.

This was an absolutely beautiful testimony! I was so moved by his humility and realized how much God has left to do in my heart. ❤️

To be absent of the body is to be present with tge Lord. "Today, you will be with me in paradise".

Praise the Lord Jesus for Andy remaining in Amish lifestyle, how much Adventist can learn from Adventist Amish for survival in rapidly approaching tremendous crisis. Maranatha

God bless Andy and his family for He has lead them so openly to His arms and true salvation. Im from a modern Mennonite family. I know how difficult things can be. However you have done it all according to God’ plan for you. Im so happy for you all! God be with you!

Christ Jesus is gathering his chosen ones through the narrow gate thank you Lord Jesus for your great plan

Thank you SO much for this precious, truthful, informative interview that is such a blessing!

Always a blessing to listen to Andy's testimony and his journey with Christ.

🤔....The interviewer, John feels to me like old school journalism - very curious, respectful, direct. The interviewe Andy feels like a moderday Martin Luther- an honest reformer - GREAT Interview was able to watch it clean through ,(1 short ad break)- kept my attention for the whole 58 min 😌 + not many can do that Jordan Peterson being one....there are a few others , so you're in great company keep up the good work 👍👍👍 😌

Thank you for sharing your story honestly and humbly. I am blessed to hear this. I am too a convert in SDA church, and I can relate to some of the things you mentioned. God is soooo good, I hope many people can experience how wonderful it is to allow Him to change their lives. Good bless us Happy Sabbath from Indonesia :)

Awesome testimony.Hugs my brothers see you both in heaven

Wonderful interview. It's all about the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you and praise God.

So true Ps. Andy. Thank You 🙏📖⛪❤️✝️🎺👑👍🇹🇹

Even as an atheist, this conversation is very interesting.

I am a Swiss community and all my ancestors on my mom's side are from Switzerland. I grew up in the mennonite church surrounded by thousands of Amish. Even my babysitter growing up was Amish. There is a lot of truth here.

Very inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing!!

Fascinating and inspiring. Thanks for sharing!

This was (is!) a wonderful video, & VERY educational for me! Praise God for your deliverance & your testimony, Andy Weaver!! I do pray Jesus will continue to sanctify & guide your heart & your message; so that others in your community may come to know & honor Him!

Amish communities are great. They are well educated and have longer life span than the general public. Much less crime and better sense of family and community. Yes they have benefit of health and longevity and sense of well being.

I live in the heart of Amish country. I drive them. I’ve attended Amish Church. Church was very steeped in tradition. I asked many questions. They had no answers other than it’s always been done that way and we don’t ask questions. From one group to the next so many things are different. Love my Amish neighbors. Pray for them. Thank you to this man for sharing. I’d love to know where he is.

This is such an interesting testimony. It reminders me about Paul who did not shun his Jewish heritage and yearned to reach his own people for Christ. In similar fashion, Andy may be able to reach his fellow Amish by living an Amish lifestyle. It makes sense that the bishop was threatened by this and wanted him to move away. Also, for people who grew up in a church, that doesn't make you a Christian. Believing in Christ as your savior and following him, is the key.

I'm so glad you came out from among them and if you want revival then preach Acts 2:38!!!! Encourage everyone to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ and seek God for the Holy Ghost!!!! glory to God

Andy, you are so right about keeping your simple lifestyle. Nothing at all against Bible truth as far i can see.

Love it! Tare down those so called denomination walls, cause there is not any in HEAVEN just saved by The Blood of The Lamb, Jesus Christ!

The righteousness of faith. Praise God.

I appreciate the fact that Brother Andy believes in the sleep of the dead. I am interested in a full statement of beliefs.

Looks like Andy has become a light for some of the Amish people to lead them to the love and joy and grace of Jesus Christ. Wonderful that Andy states that not all Amish is not like his community where he grew up…just like some Christian churches… men including under shepherds confuse their preferences in running a church with the word of God and don’t get the fact that the Sabbath was made for man and not the other way around. This interview was encouraging for me….thank you Andy and the Interviewer for being an agent of God. All glory to our God…

Very inspiring. Praise the LORD

May God bless you as you bless others.

What a wonderful testimony!!!

What a precious conversation, God bless both of you

Interesting interview. God works in mysterious ways.

God bless both you men

"Bear fruit by default". Accidentally doing righteously.

This thing about keeping tradition instead of searching for the truth in the bible is a problem in many religions and christian denominations.

My wife is ex-amish and has so many stories to tell.

Thank you for showing that there are no miracles and that we have to help one another. Jesus can't heal the blind but doctors can.

I like reading Amish fiction, but I thought it would be great if they new about the Sabbath, I prayed about it and then I saw Andy and Naomi and thought God is opening the eyes of people in different places.

Very INTERESTING, maybe it is a DEEP OPENING from our LORD JESUS....

God's purpose is for an adult to be water baptised when the come to the end of their life of sinning. Augustine wanted to get baptised in his teens or earlier, but his mother would not let him, for she wanted him to wait till he was finished with his sin life. And he waited till his twenties.

The enemy is a defeated foe!

My friend, David Hogan was in a church where many Almish people showed up. People piled up their clothes for David to pray over their clothes. A woman came to David with a sick little 8 year old girl for Davjd to pray for. She was like a rag doll. David walked around the church holding the little girl . He placed her on the pile of clothes and prayed for the girl. Two weeks later David came back to the church and this little girl was playing on the floor with other kids. She was healed of stage 4 leukemia.

Amish or no Amish... Praise God for the provision of hope and salvation...

What a beautiful story, what’s the name of his book? I’d love to read it

To be absent from the body is to be with Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:8

As to the idea ( which the Mennonites take from Corinthians I think) about not eating with those family members who have left the community, or who have married outside it. I disagree with that. My family went to a Mennonite service and were invited to dinner at a home afterward. Their son, who had married a non Mennonite girl and lived in town were there. They were sat at a different table than the rest, so the 'not to eat' was abided by. But visiting outsiders , myself , husband and our children sat at the family table. They associated with their son and his wife. They weren't excluded entirely. I felt the love of God should have been shown to that son more than to us who had a different belief. (We were Luthern followers.) They should have had a place at the family table.

God uses ordinary people. Amen

I LIKE THE AMISH IF THEY ONLY WOULD BELIEVE IN JESUS THE WAY THEY LIVE IS HOW WE GREW UP /I HAVE 17 SIBLINGS AND OUR DAD WAS A MINISTER./WE LIVED ON A FARM AND THATS WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THE AMISH//I THINK GOD BLESSES THIS LIFESTYLE EXEMPT THEY DONT EVEN READ THEIR BIBLES AND THAT IS A BIG DRAWBACK/

Reading the history of the early church of the forefathers helps one to understand tradition and it's role in the church.

The Amish people dress modestly, and follow the light given by God (on country living and dress reform) to the Seventh-day Adventists and the majority do not follow it. Yes, unfortunately Seventh-day Adventists for the most part are worldly, they dress and eat and talk like the world. Praise God for bringing this family to the truth and He will continue to guide them into all truth!

I can see a relation between the conference and the bishops. This comment is to bring awareness to the accountability one has

Where is this Amish guy, I'm from the Amish and love to connect with people coming from there! Wonder how I could get ahold of him!

God helped me thru those years, ONE painful step at a time bcz I was saved: according to the Bible, "Jesus said, I am the Way, the Truth, & the Life: no man comes to the Father, but by me." "born again" or "saved"" means, 1. you BELIEVE the gospel (become 'Believers') (Heb 11:6 & John 20:31); 2. you've asked Jesus to forgive all your sins (Luke 13:3, Acts 17:30); 3. you confess your faith in Jesus & asked Him to come into your life (Rom !0:10, Mt 10:32); 4. THEN be baptised (Gal 3:27, Mk 16:16 & Acts 2:38 also Acts 8:36-38); 5. & then follow Him (Rev 2:10). Myself, i was desperate for Jesus- i asked Him to "TAKE OVER MY LIFE bcz i've made a mess of it!" TELL EVERYONE! "to the corners of the earth", Jesus said!

Amen

We are also JUSTIFIED BY GRACE TITUS 3:7 AS WELL AS BY FAITH ROMANS 5:1 PEAISE THE LORD FOREVER!

Nice

The Amish I know have a truck & drive it without insurance or a state license here in SE Ohio. My friend drives for the Amish. The Amish own the truck & insurance & my friend drives them to their painting houses job.

Bradshaw said that "you will sin" after baptism. He should have said "you may sin." See 1 John 3:6-9, also 1 John 1:9

No creed but Christ.

He must come from Holmes County

This is clearly evidence that Christianity is true.

So much for the Amish not being filmed or photographed

New Covenant Whole Gospel: Let us now share the Old Testament Gospel found below with the whole world. On the road to Emmaus He said the Old Testament is about Him. He is the very Word of God in John 1:1, 14. Awaken Church to this truth. Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by husband unto them, saith the LORD: Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1 (Gal. 3:16)? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel (John 1:49)? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis? Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, man-made Bible doctrines fall apart. Let us now learn to preach the whole Gospel until He comes back. The King of Israel is risen from the dead! (John 1:49, Acts 2:36) Watch the KZfaq videos “The New Covenant” by David Wilkerson, or Bob George, and David H.J. Gay. We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24.

We know all about the Amish.. what about his revelation?

this is the same for many conservatives faiths- we see the worldly ways as sin.

What is the difference between the Amish and mennonites?

Assurance of salvation, but what about permanent salvation (O.S.A.S.)?

How did he interact with Mennonite community?

Who is Jesus to the Amish?

Unfortunately the SDA church of which I am a member does what the world does, dress, entertainment, diet, lifestyle so it astonishes me why he has joined himself to the SDA conference system.

Why would one need to live in the 18th or 19th century? I can understand the more Holiness dress codes, but why must it be the 18th century vs more modern, we as Apostolic Oneness believe in women wearing dresses or skirts, modestly and no exposing the flesh be it men or women.

The Mosaic Law--all of it--is holy just, and good. But it is lacking faith. That was the faultiness if it, as the Book of Hebrews teaches.

The bible does not teach you have assurances of salvation. Even Saint Paul was not certain of this until about the end of his life. We need to reject once saved always saved for the modern heresy that it is and embrace sola scripture which teaches eternal life is merited according to your works.
