I'll give the whole church up before I disown my daughter. Wow. This is love. There are a lot of church folks that put the church before their kids and family and neglect their family.
I thought it was good the way Bishop and first lady it was announced to us one Sunday and when the baby was born they had a grandson . None of that stuff sinking in shame hiding her out or the baby . No forced marriage it was really refreshing the honesty and the love . Sarah gracious she seems to be so much like first Lady
I Love this testimony ,now this girl,sarah she is one of my best preacher I listen to on RU-vid, Thanks T d Jake's for standing with this gift ,who knew who she will become
Don't know why people have higher expectations for pastors children , they are always being watched in whatever they do.. They are human just like everybody else.. She has a very good surport from the family.
The Bible is why. Doesn't mean pastor's are perfect, or that their children won't sin, but there is a higher standards for pastors and all Christians in general.
Most people have a higher expectations than a 13 year old getting pregnant or a 13 year old boy impregnating a girl. It’s not the norm birthing age in any Western industrialized country.
Absolutely, and she had to go through that to become relatable to many many people.GOD does not make mistakes. GOD'S perception and our are very different. Where we see human error GOD sees opportunities.
When I tell you that this woman is PHENOMENAL , I mean just that! I have been truly inspired by Sarah's teachings and I love watching her uplifting sermons. She's such a blessing!
Sarah Jakes-Roberts inspire me sooo much! She taught me to not “Settle for Safe”. We all make mistakes BUT GOD truly has a PLAN! Love this family!! God Bless !❤️
Even though she made a mistake and got pregnant I love the way she educated herself on parenting..along with maturing and take responsibility for her actions. It's a blessing when you can have parents that will support. She didnt let this kill her or knock her down but she used it to strengthen her! Awesome!
Getting pregnant so young before marriage that was the problem but not a mistake just a problem because that incident helped her grow into who she is now beautiful
Yea, the devil wanted to kill her destiny, look how beautifully how she has soared. Some family would opted for removal, you done well and it's an example to others. A good father choses his child, you didn't save your face but your child. Stay bless XXX. Love you Sarah
Watching this in 2020 and this is the True definition of a FATHERS LOVE and TRUE thing of Judge Not and everyone makes mistakes and it’s up to us to correct our life with God and get on the right path with God.
I love this young lady!! So many young women need this type of support. I sure did! I was 16 when I had my baby and almost died worrying about what people would say and the embarrassment this brought to my parents. Blood pressure went so high they thought I wouldn’t make it through the delivery. For those negative people, go to HELL! You have no idea what it takes to survive something like this!! If you haven’t walked in our shoes, SHUT UP!! By the way, not only did I survive, I thrived and I’m living my best life. My daughter motivated me to become the best person and mother I can possibly be. And, she’s a beautiful young lady!!!
Jackie Jones This is my story too!!! I had got pregnant at 15, dropped out of school, and moved out 18. God saved me and where I got saved I met my Hubby and been thriving!!! God is AMAZING and His Grace 🙌🙌🙌🙌
I absolutely love how she answered about the father and allowing him to speak for himself. She is amazing. I love it!! I also love how Bishop Jakes set things when it came to her. It definitely was a hard thing I’m sure for the family yet he stood for her and nothing less which was amazing. I know many pastors who should take a page from him to do better in these situations. ❤
Indeed a Father's love is everything. Men do not understand their importance in a young girl's life. They matter and Bishop was understanding and forgiving. He did well.
This is so true cause at a young age all they need is the support even tho they have made a bad bad mistake but no matter wat her parents still had her back
they are such brilliant orators of not just the faith, but just as regular people. Sarah changed the lives of all us PKs and it’s an honor to know them!
Amazing, inspiring story. My hat is off to Sarah, Bishop Jakes and his family and the entire Potter's House Church family. God's blessings on all of you.
Not only is it good to have a father who loves you unconditionally, but having someone who still sees the best in you when you make mistakes is such a blessing. I always wished I had that someone. Real parents and family are supposed to uplift you and have your back when the world turns against you. This interview is so touching♥ Love me some Jakes and Sarah. :)
Love you Sarah. Your story inspires me every time I listen and read. I bought your book Lost and found. Very encouraged. Your life than and now is quiet a big lesson. God has pay you back those years that the enermy has stolen, with all that you went through and your second marriage with Pastor Toure Robert. My day will also come. God bless your family
LIFE'S ARE PLANNED ACCORDING TO God's journey for us. God has already wrote our stories. We don't know the story of our lives But GOD knows the beginning, middle,and end
KUDOS and much respect to the JAKES FAMILY; however the ANSWER in response to the inquiry of whether Malachi's dad is involved was a resounding NO, citing his privacy. IF he was involved, a simple YES would've sufficed! Lastly, in all transparency, how does a 13 or 14 year old daughter of a Bishop not be supervised or advised on the consequences of certain actions? Thankfully, she has become a first lady and pastor who is eloquent. And Malachi has an interesting presence as a teen film producer who is quite stylish on Instagram! Blessings to All!🙏🏾
Watching this today and knowing how much she has grown from this experience and we're now lead the Women's Conference evolve is amazing testimony So many parents are traumatized because of their own mistakes and because of their own emotions worrying about themselves being selfish but what about the child what about her child feels when you judge them and we treat them as if you're perfect No child is perfect so love that child the same way God has loved you and gave you Grace
A test of your faith will come no matter 🙏 what but God will see you though we're not perfect but we have a understand God so don't look down on the test be blessed by the faith 🙏😇💯
The sad part is not every 14 girl who get pregnant has the backing of a successful family unfortunately most come from a struggling one parent household. It's great to see how lovely her life turned out. But let's be honest it's highly unlikely if not for her Dad's wealth her life would've turned out the way it did.
I'm crying just watching this, this is raw, undiluted, truly amazing love that only a true person of God can model in the form of TD Jakes.. May God continue to bless you, your family and your ministry sir.
Firstly he never called him the baby daddy, and secondly not messy. As an interviewer it was a legitimate question as she didn’t get pregnant by herself. Her reply demonstrated her maturity and grace.
SHE MAKE A MISTAKE WHO WITH OUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE ALL ARE SIN COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD SHE GOT HER LIFE TOGETHER THANKS FOR HER WONDERFUL FATHER AND MOTHER GOD BLESS THEM ALL
My dead beat father was not in my life. Im grown now and over it. Its nice to see a supportive Father like T.d Jakes though and Sarah is an amazing Pastor and Mentor❤
wow,soooo true, not using our families as props in one-man shows.living for real and not being actors on a stage, but living an authentic life,mistakes,short-comings and all.
It's not that they as her parents are condoning what she did to get pregnant at age 14, it's not permission to do what God intended for married men and women, but be there to love, support, and encourage!
I know her father is beyond proud of her outcome so far today❤ he handled that amazingly and look at them now. Amazing. She is amazing and married and happy and real as they come. I can for sure listen to her cause she been there and done that.
Matthew 10: 38-39 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. 39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.. I will NEVER walk away from what God has ORDAINED for my life. I choose Jesus
You didnt get the message. Listen to it again. He didnt say he is forsaking Jesus or his purpose for his daughter, afterall ensuring his daughter is on track is also his part of his ordained. purpose.
Abraham was ready to sacrifice his own son for God.. In ministry it is very important to prune the church along with our kids... Today we forgive but if we don't correct then there is no correction during judgement... It's very easy to give testimony the way we want to please the world but without Holiness no one will see and please God... Just wake up and stay alert our kids belong to our God.. Fast and pray for them so that they may not be deceived.. Coz Word Say's.. "I do not know you" Even if we preached the gospel or we drove demons or even prophesied...
Family comes FIRST Bishop and Wife couldn't Help what happened Things happen That's Life BUT can't think what People think or say about you Who hasn't messed Up I haven't seen NO one walking on water yet Least she didn't abort the child she Went ahead and had it We just gotta GO ON - MOVE ON and Do the best we can She's not the only one in the world who has Ever failed whether young or old God is Merciful and Kind God looks on the heart and God can do what man can't I'm not justifying to say its ok to go ahead and do wrong Im just saying God Knows All about it and He can do what Man can't We can all learn from our failures and mistakes No one is above falling Some of us are Stronger than others How are the Mighty falling ? But with GOD -- LOVE will See us through He is the Answer to whatever in Life
My father would never do that for me. I always had to fight for my father's love and even until this day I still do. I never felt loved by my father. I still love him though.
