I Just Don't Like People The Story Behind the Song

In this video, I share the personal story behind my song “I Just Don’t Like People”, a song born from frustration, heartache, and a deep love for others who wouldn’t listen when I tried to help. This lecture explains how songwriting has always been my way of communicating the emotions I struggle with: joy, sorrow, confusion, and the burdens I carry for the people I love. I talk openly about the assumptions people make about me as a country boy, the pain of being ignored when offering help, and the moment this song was sparked by a simple comment to my wife.

This message also explores the biblical truth that there is a profound difference between loving someone and liking them. Using Scripture, I explain why Christians can love deeply while still feeling distance from those who resist truth. We look at Christ’s own examples of rebuke, the calling for believers to be separate from the world, and why the idea that “we are all God’s children” is unbiblical.

If you’ve ever carried a burden for someone who refused to hear you, or felt the weight of loving people who push you away, this video will speak to you. It’s honest, emotional, scriptural, and grounded in real-life experience. Thank you for listening, and I hope this message encourages you in your walk of faith.
