I recently learned of a new website, I Am Second. I Am Second features the testimonies of many people, from many different walks of life. All dealing with the typical struggles of everyday life that we all are. Life can be tough on all of us. Yes, Christians have the same problems as everyone else. We are not immune to the problems and hurts of this world.
You’ll be able to watch videos of actors, athletes, musicians, business leaders, drug addicts, your next-door neighbor, people like you. All telling their story in their own words. Their stories give hope to the lonely, and the hurting, help others from destructive lifestyles, and give inspiration to everyone.
I spent quite a bit of time, on a few different days, exploring the website, and watching videos. Some of the categories of videos are Abortion, Abuse, Contentment, Anger, Death, Disabilities, Divorce, and more. My favorite video, out of all the videos I watched, is Bethany Hamilton talking about when she got bit by a shark. She talks about the day it happened, and how she hasn’t let it stop her from living her life. She also talks about staying close to God in the midst of it all, and allowing God to use her.
Give Change, Make Change– There are many more stories waiting to be told. You can help make more videos available by committing $2 every Tuesday to build film funds. Your contribution will be used to develop, produce and promote new films like those already on I Am Second. Join the Seconds Change project and become an I am Second insider. You can also visit I Am Second on Twitter.
Visit the I Am Second website and watch the films. You’ll discover people who have tried to go it alone and have failed. You can find encouragement, hope, peace, and the same fulfillment they found.
Be Second.
