We are disciples of The Way, protectors of 3 children, truth seekers, skill learners, history lovers, budget keepers, music enjoyers, and students of the old ways, who live a simple life, having learned a lot throughout our 23 years of marriage. This is our platform to share what we have learned and are learning.
When thinking about the direction of this channel, we asked ourselves, what could our children gather from our lives, say, if one day they should happen to walk down some of the same roads that we once travelled? And why not extend our experiences to our viewers also? We want this to be a place to come & glean according to what is relevant & relatable to the viewer. Our prayer is that this channel will be a helpful tool & valuable resource that brings glory to our Heavenly Father, because only through Him, "I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content." Philippians 4:11
Thank you Daniel. This was good to listen to. - I am in a Bible group, which "study a bit". In this group we have with us a Messianic Jew. He explained to us that Adonai means Lord. And the lord of the house is also adonai, but not meant for God. Elohim is also the name of God, but means plural, (Gods). And Yahweh is the old "secret" name. He had a long explanation of Yahweh, but doesn't remember everything. BUT.... now comes what I have noticed in his prayers. In his prayers, the word Father is included in absolutely all the sentences and phrases. Whether he starts with Father or ends with Father. Father is essential in all his prayers for sure. 💯🙏💯
This is so beautiful. Thank you for this, it's a good thing to think about, and something I should meditate on. May the Lord continue to bless you and your precious family always!
I really appreciate your straight talking truth! You share Biblical wisdom and don’t bother to distort the message with fluff! Thank you Brother! Sending love in Christ to you and your precious family ❤️✝️🙌🏻
I, like @noahblack5647, also found this channel through your children and am very grateful for it. Matthew 12:35 "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things". Though I don't have any children, I was still able to take away good treasure from this video that I can use some day when I have children, Lord willing, so I thank you for that. I had an experience recently that led me to the same conclusion that you guys expressed as far as youth groups go. From the ages of 12-18, I attended a week long church camp meeting for the youth. It was filled with different events and activities and set times for church. I used to look back on it very fondly as I made many friends there and enjoyed that time thoroughly. But only recently, after the Lord saved me, did I go back for the day just to see what all had changed, did I then realize the kind of place it was the whole time. It was 90% vacation and 10% church. It was all about the activities and festivities and having fun, and hardly about studying and doing the will of God. Though scripture was read here and there throughout the week and during the church service, it was hardly lived out, as the conversation amongst not only the kids, which I am more sympathetic to, but also the adults, was all drama and Godless drivel. And even the time spent in "church", was more of a rock concert then a time to give praise to the Lord. It was as carnal as any other worldly camp could be. It is extremely sad to see a place, that you would think would be uplifting and beneficial for children to grow in the Lord, to be a place as worldly as any other place. Especially a place that bears the name Christ, and professes to be for the faith. Thank you again for the great video and to the Lord for revealing your channel to me. God Bless.
Thank you for this video, I appreciate you saying that we plant and we water but God gives the increase. And that we can't pull people but we have to lead them. As this is something I have been personally struggling with, if you could please pray for me, to be more courageous in planting and watering, I would greatly appreciate. Thank you and God bless.
We appreciate your encouraging comment. We will be praying for you and that the Holy Spirit will give you courage and the words to speak. 1Corinthians 3:6-9 6 I have planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then, neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth, but God that giveth the increase. 8 And he that planteth, and he that watereth, are one, and every man shall receive his wages, according to his labor. 9 For we together are God’s laborers: ye are God's husbandry and God's building.
Great video! We actually bought a Berkey a few years ago and since we use so much filtered water, we decided we wanted an additional filter, and made a homemade 5 gallon Berkey out of food grade 5 gallon buckets. I wish we had thought of using the stainless pots like you did (instead of baby pink plastic!) so our filters would match eachother! 😅 We wound up buying the sight glass spigot which I really love because I always know exactly how much filtered water is left. 👍🏼 May the Lord bless you all for sharing your videos!
I'm just Bradley. I believe there is 1 God and I believe He sent his son to die for me. And Jesus honored his father and sacrificed himself. I hate saying it but "Churches " have become corporations. I love everyone and I share all he is done for me everywhere I go. When I stand before the Almighty and he passes his judgment I will have to rely fully on his GRACE. And this is enough for me.
I have not, but I just went and looked up the lyrics. Sobering, indeed. Our family has been honing in on Psalm 51:17 in our discussions. "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise." Thank you for this comment.
Hello there :) I also immediately take action when I feel the onset of a headache. Or it would grow into 2-3 days terrible migraine. I still use pills though. My environment doesn't really allow such use of herbs and spices. I am really curious about your use of garlic and wouldn't mind a video about it. Best of luck to you.
Yes, same. If I am careless and don't address it right away, I know I am in trouble. I also forgot to mention something that may help you, and that is drinking a lot of water on the onset. Many times headaches are triggered by dehydration. Just drinking along with the other things I shared works wonders. I will try to do a video on garlic soon. I pray you are able to find relief. I have some links in the description on what I order that has helped me tremendously. Please don't feel obligated to use the link. My hope in sharing is that they help.
I admire you so much! Your knowledge and understanding of herbal and natural remedies is so impressive I'm so sorry you have had to suffer so much with migraines through the years, and I am so thankful the Lord has led you to the remedy. He is so faithful! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are such a dear blessing! God bless you always!🙏❤😊
You are so sweet, my friend! The world of these little wonders that the Lord has given us is a treasure trove of goodness and I am so thankful to be able to utilize them and help others if I can to do the same! God bless you!
This makes me appreciate my credit card company more… I did a dispute and never had to prove anything at all. They reversed it and all I had to do was say that I contacted the company. That being said, great job turning something negative onto a positive and looking at this in a positive light!
Amazing analogy, it makes me think of the rich man in hell when Abraham said your brothers have the written words of the prophets and the patriarchs, if they have not read and believed then they will not believe even if someone returned from the dead. Ultimately saying the written word and warnings were there, if they did not read them and heed those words, then there is no excuse....
I so much appreciate the candor and transparency your share in this video. This was obviously an uncomfortable lesson to learn, but what a huge teaching! I absolutely do not want to be in the position of relying upon my own judgment or the beliefs of other humans when it comes to salvation and eternal life. Yes, I need to read the word of the Almighty and to obey. Thank you sharing this and all glory to Him for the teaching through you!
Wow! What a sobering thought! And hard lesson. Hearing this blessed me very much and touched my heart. It made me think of that song, "God will make this trial a blessing, though it sends me to my knees." It's amazing how He can use anything, no matter how hard it is, to teach and convict and bless us. All we need is an honest, open, humble heart and a teachable spirit. I'm so sorry this happened but so grateful you shared. God bless you all!
Hymns are a blessing! It’s sad that many churches have invited worldliness in and have changed the music and worship service to look and sound more like a concert rather than gathering together and singing simple praises to God.
Oh, my! I am SO thankful you did this video! We have been in such a quandary as to what to do. It is on my mind every single day, and to be honest, we have been overwhelmed with not even knowing where to start to remedy this concern. I know, without a doubt, that God led you to do this, and you explained everything SO well. We are not too mechanicly inclined and got rid of most of our tools when we downsized, but we will try to figure something out, Lord willing! Jacob's woodworking iis amazing! We appreciate y'all so much! Your channel is such a blessing! God bless you for all you do.
I am so thankful it was helpful. To God be the glory. Let me know if you have any questions. We are here to help however we can. God bless you, my sister.
👍👍👍👍👍 as an ex catholic I can relate to so much “outward” religion 🤮 I have also been to so many “churches” that are more like social clubs 🤔 but nowadays I live on a small island and love fellowship with other Christians, our prayer meeting has 6 people at most, we don’t agree %100 on doctrine but our beliefs are from Gods Word 🙏 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.
What a blessing it is to be a part of the body of Christ. Praise our LORD for the fellowship you have with other believers. He sure does know our needs and our desire for fellowship and provides it for us. May we be ever faithful to Him because He deserves all of the glory, honor and praise. God bless.
Hello David, be careful with take out food do not forget Leviticus 11, many restaurants bake pork and beef in the same pan. I no longer go to restaurants and refuse also pizza because it is baked in the same oven as pizzas with unclean meat on them and the same hands that garnish and handle my pizza also handle the unclean meat like pork and shrimps. Also check for the E numbers in food, things like E 120 is carmin, a food dye made from bugs, it is quite complicated to fully obey Leviticus 11 today. I recently found out im eating a lot of unclean things when taking a closer look at the E numbers. E 471 is in many foods even in some bread and cake and it can be made of pork fat. Have a blessed day brother and I pray you succeed on His way, personally it is quite difficult for me, these are difficult times
