This was really good and it made a lot of sense. I don’t consider myself “Christian” but I was talking to a mentor that knew this about me and I told her that I wanted to get married and she said “why do you want to get married if you’re not Christian?” I was confused then laughed then thought she was hating 😂😂😂 but now I see I was lost all along. He is absolutely right we want our own version of it … that’s why it’s not working. We have become a society that tries to adjust the universe to fit us instead of adjusting to fit what is already written. Powerful lesson!!!! Masterful 👏🏾🙌🏾❤
His discussion on vision vs. values is pure gold! People connect on everything visual and routinely overlook peoples core values! Core values last over time!!
I love when the host asked “What’s wrong with falling in love?” And the man of God said “When you fall in, you can fall out. Love is a decision.” That challenges every thing we’ve been taught about how love starts and grows.
EXCELLENT EPISODE!!! I love to hear kingdom men speak because the perspective is from God! I pray that God raise up men and women that seek to glorify HIM by living intentional!
You love this conversation because it doesn't require women to be accountable, it's all on God to get you ready and pick the perfect man with the perfect career or business.
I finally got through this episode but let me tell you, I used to ask all these types of questions in the first couple of dates! People used to tell me I was crazy because I would “scare” them EXCEPT for the married people I knew and then my husband found me! The conversations we had, the time we spent getting to know each other before dating. Met March 2020, started dating May 2020, engaged December 2021 and and got married November of last year! If you both know there’s no question! New subscriber! Keep up the great work!
That part about it a man feels like he will lose more than gain is powerful yes stay single!!! Leave us ladies alone who know what they want and need!!!
A woman watching and piping in… what a great podcast. I have been all over the spectrum with a 10 yr, 7 yr, 3yr, two 1 yr relationships and many casual and what I have realized is love is a decision daily. I agree not everyone is meant for marriage or not ready for it now. There is nothing wrong with being where you are at. Just make yourself more valuable personally during that time. I am intentional now but even when I wasn’t I always looked for honesty at where you are at. When I needed to be free I looked for the guy that was up front and honest and in the same place. For me personally I know God wants me to be married so now i have to be healed . during this time single I have to start being a wife. I also agree a woman shouldn’t search for a man. A man should pursue. A woman can’t submit to a man that she is having to carry. Neither party will feel at peace and feel respect in this position. Also want to say there is a misconception about all women looking for a expensive date. My favorite dates were walking at a park, hiking, off roading or just driving and seeing where the road takes you. Don’t take me to the movies until at least 3 dates in. Keep up the good work you are doing
We obsess with the institution of marriage, and still cannot get it right! I agree marriage, is not for everyone. Why cannot we preach alternatives as well. There are many living their lives healthy, and happy without marriage, and not a damn thing wrong with them. Look, we need to stop this obsession with marriage! You happen to have it, make it work! This guest, is speaking from the Bible that's great! Love that. Too many on RU-vid, voicing about marriages and relationships, some fake and some Google knowledge it! Too many fakers flying around. We have to use our own judgements and common senses. You mentioned marriages, not about love, that it is a part of it, but it mainly about partnership. Yes, that's so important, but does that mean if love, dies, ignore the situation and still hang in there for tge sake of partnership? ❤
Tho my personal journey had trauma attached at young age I always what n gave honesty n heart felt affection i showed up sometimes doing to much realizing that I needled therapy at older age it helps communication skills n better ears to listen n having consistency God ❤i know thats what kind of i tension all relationships i what
Is anyone on this panel married? I was married and divorce twice. I had a lot to learn but I got it now friends. Its all about communication, me resting in my womenhood and feeling safe enough to trust my husband. Its sooo deep friends. That didnt happen. Marriage is amazing and sent from God! Its nothing to play with or take lightly. Be blessed yall in these streets. In the Bible that’s the only relationship that is spoken of.
Crazy because my pastor recently pointed out that it’s in scripture stating that God does not call everyone to marriage. Nonetheless, loved this episode.🔥So many gems
God indeed didn't call every man and women to marriage because it's a calling with a certain grace that sustains marriage. Hence why not all men are called to be husbands and not all women are called to be wives.
Also, those people that God didn’t call to marriage don’t have the desire to be in relationships. Apostle Paul didn’t have that desire because that’s not what God called him to do.
27:50 Actually, I am one of the few women who encourage 1st dates at the coffee shop or the park. I’ve been really discouraged from doing this from both well meaning men and women in my life, but I’m glad to hear a solid argument outlining why I lean towards this.
How are you getting to know someone at the movies or a concert? Those are not the best first dates as you cannot effectively communicate with each other.
BEST interview yet! I’ve been watching for about a month and have seen lots of the “how to be feminine” videos. I am definitely operating from my masculine most of the time. This is the first video that’s made me want to operate from my feminine! The value questions were ON point and so good. I wish I would’ve known this info when I was in my 20s. Love you two and this podcast!
I always enjoy going for a walk on a date. It was a bonus if he ask to go for a walk. Because he took the time to learn about me, I enjoy going for walks and doing outdoor activities.
When the STUDENT is READY, the TEACHER will APPEAR. What I love about this episode and the engagement in the comments is there are many persons READY or CONSIDERING HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS. You gentlemen are ADDING VALUE with guests and discussions being had on your Podcast. Kudos to Both of You!!!!! #IntentionalRelationships
God said his ppl perish because of a lack of knowledge! This episode was loaded with it!! I have never heard of the guest speaker but i immediately went and subscribed to him. I must purchase those books. I can’t wait to further glean from him!! Ya’ll thank u sooo so much for having him!! I got off work and listened to this in its entirety and it’s now 2:48a!! I needed every gem dropped and gone watch it again to jot some notes down!!! Wonderful dialogue fellas, plz keep it up!!! Keep it coming!! Yeeees!!! ✨🙌🏾💎💪🏾✨
I mean he is right on on all points!!! The only thing I would like to know is what happened in his first marriage that caused it to fail? I want to know what to learn from it.
Well this was really a great one. You did it again. Nuff respect for that . Ladies keep holding the cookie until he has shown you his vision your shared values and his strong intent to choose to love you and only you through anything. That's the revolution we need. Otherwise they will procrastinate. Eight years to eighteen years don't make a difference to them, only us. Let's do this. #womensdayishyea
That was a great episode! What I feel we need to be reminded of more, the purpose, importance and value of marriage! When dating know yourself first ( values, mission, vision) so you know what to look for in a spouse and know what fits with you. Like a puzzle. Date with purpose and be intentional in getting to know someone’s mind and heart. Don’t marry vision, marry values. Marry someone who will add value to your life and can build with. Build as a team. Our world is dating wrong and broken marriages show it. This was a breadth of fresh air.
Get deep then sir !💯🙌🏾So happy you touched on people and their purpose being integrated , and how you even paralleled that to our bodies and so on. 👌🏽😮💨
Not sure if it’s intentional or not, but I really appreciate the lack of profanity with guests of religious faith. The Holy Girls wanna listen too but the language chilldddd🥶🤣… But this was 🔥!!!!!
Also I think his answer to “what about a man that doesn’t see the value in marriage do?” Was so spot on … it needs to be played on repeat. No one should have to convince you or prove to you that marriage is valuable! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 you either Believe or you don’t! I think many ppl miss that …. There is a man that should not get married .. more men need to decide which side of the fence they want to be on and stop confusing everyone ….of course there are some women that should not as well but all this talk trying to make it fit our ideas that’s what’s really messing up the Union and value … it’s not the marriage it’s the ppl in it and reality that’s been the problem all along!!
As a woman, I was initially skeptical about tuning into your podcast. I assumed it was gonna give "red-pill) But a couple episodes in (including this one) it has blessed my life. I love the topic. The value of marriage was beautifully articulated. You're got a new subscriber gentlemen. 🙏🏾
His answers are Like my mentor. They answer questions with questions or give you guidelines so you can find the answer. It’s annoying but the most effective way to grow
Ngl I am only 9 min in and this man has literally unlocked my perception . I have definitely viewed marriage wrong . I can’t really explain it but I can see me moving different moving forward but ima continue 😂
Of all the 20 plus podcasts of hardly initiated that I have watched this is the one I most connect with! Your guest pretty much described me and my thoughts! I felt as though I was in church and the pastor was speaking to me in sermon! It was very refreshing to listen to a strong Black man that actually got me! I find that not many men get me! “I want to be led but do not want to loose myself in being led”! I am very strong and independent by force not choice! To know me is to understand me! To hear this man speak exactly how I feel and how I am at this point in my life is extremely rewarding! So I am grateful to have taken time to find and listen to this podcast! I will look him up and follow for sure! By the way hardly initiated is the best podcast on RU-vid and I also appreciate what you young men are doing for us as a people! Hearing different perspectives are very important for us as a people! Most are centered around remaining spiritually grounded and I appreciate that! Thanks again for all you do! 🙏🏾❤️✊🏾👌🏾👍🏾🔥🙏🏾☺️
If I could reach out and hug this speaker i would! he is not only creating his own legacy. He is changing the world with his impeccable heart for God and words to those of us who are so desperately thirsty or REAL love and life, thank you young men, you are bringing on amazing guests
For years I have been looking for a lady to be my wife. It seems like I am losing hope as cheating is the main cause of turmoil in a relationship these days. Cheating is like a cancer that metastasizes and destroy the core foundation of a relationship while letting the kids hanging on a cliff. Sad but it's real.
Cheating is not the only factor in today relationship! Baggage, brokenness, toxicity and just plain out disrespect and boyish actions of a man whom believe he’s mature! No financial conversation, no building and just one person carrying the weight ! Meaning there could never be any wealth building as life itself it to expensive to live! Reading, research, maturity and discipline is the start to achieving and attracting the right energy!
Wow I just came across your site and the title interest me, so I decided to listen in. I was so bless to hear this brother breaking down all the aspects of marriage, The real value of what marriage is how you should ask the right questions and be more eager to really know the core of the person. It was such a breath of fresh air because usually women are having these conversations and rarely do you hear a group of men having these deep conversations. We as women are so easy to expose our souls but men are so different when it comes to things that may seem to put them in a vulnerable state. I enjoyed this session and it gave me also tools in really investing in men that want to have these conversations. Unfortunately I been dealing with the ones that should definitely stay single.
I Love This❤️ “There IS a MAN that SHOULD be ALONE and there IS a MAN who SHOULD NOT be ALONE and ONLY YOU KNOW if You are THAT MAN or NOT!!!” - Jermone Glenn
This is 1 of the best open,& honest podcast I've heard in a long time. This is something that should be implemented into a pre- marriage counseling process/ class. Thanks for your teachings, & help. Much appreciated my brothers 👏👏👏👏
My first dates are almost always breakfast, lunch, ice cream or tapas. I always decline dinner as a first date. This man is totally right. I only care about your values and that takes care of everything else.
Pastor Glenn! Thank you. I pray this goes viral to countries!! I enjoyed your knowledge and wisdom that was poured out and so glad to be connected and have heard your teaching for years now. Love all of it!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
This was such a refreshing episode and opended the doors to more discussions around why people in our day in age are not getting married. I thank God for these conversations and also pray that it continues to shift how we view marriage. Its a beautiful thing!
I loved this episode too, but this is great to see which of your guest speakers, speak to certain viewers. This speaker and Ken Canion I resonate mentally with. I feel inspired and I felt like I learned something
Thank you Sir! for speaking correctly of US grown woman. In particular that we DO want you to get to know us..that walk in the park. We DO know what want we need something to build on. Give us that foundation! We help & nurture. Whew. Say it! Teach them!!
Powerful 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I have listened to many people talk about marriage and becoming marriage ready but none has offered Practical tools to get there like this episode. Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙌🏾🙌🏾
#word, he just nailed it, we the women who have gotten ourselves together, yes we do want to be led, but not at the cost of losing ourselves or being diminished. The first thing we encounter is when they see you are well put, and know what you desire,they try to diminish your values and thoughts. Its like you being written off with this masculine vs feminine. 🤦🏿♀️
Since listening more to this channel, I can honestly say I have heard from many intelligent and wise men and women whom I would like to listen to more. I can tell Ryan and Ty are learning a lot alongside the audience.
This is our senior pastor at my church in Chicago. Talk about a master consciousness,he brings the word and breaks down for all understand. I just started listening to young men 3 days ago. And to see Pastor Glenn is just great. I wish you guys the best.
This podcast is soooooo good.i'm hooked!!!!!.Mr.Glenn spoke with great certainty and poise.Everything he said made sense.Words of wisdom and experience.
1:01:09 “‘cause girlfriend literally means I’m having sex with you exclusively with no intentions.” “So you can’t wanna be a wife if you’re acting like a girlfriend, and if he’s treating you like a girlfriend, then he’s definitely not wifing you.” Lord have mercy! Lord, please keep providing these young men revelations of You and your design 👏🏾🙌🏾
There are so many gems dropped in this, it should broadcasted on every medium. Mr. Glenn, you’ve confirmed so many things that God placed in my spirit some time ago. It’s so refreshing to actually hear it from someone else! God designed me to move a husband and his kingdom forward...that man will seek and find me soon. I want him to know that I exist and that I am increasing my value to be his greatest asset, more value than rubies as stated in Proverbs 31:10. I want him to know that God tucked me deep into his heart space for this reason...because he is worth it, and I am worth it. I am a part of his inheritance from the Lord Almighty and I am waiting and ready to be found. I declare this decree in Jesus' name. Amen
After 1-2 lunch/dinner dates a park or hike date is a requirement for me. It tells me so much about the person physically, mentally, emotionally, hiw a man handles fatigue and uncomfortable situation responses, etc
This conversation is on point and very necessary, but it takes a lot of wisdom, life experience or self awareness to reach this point. I’m not sure how many 25 and 30 year olds are ready for marriage based on this criteria (which is to some degree why there are so many divorces).
The most simple things in life are the best in life. The things people take for granted are the things I appreciate most. The park, free things like the zoo, anything just to show genuine interest of me goes sooooo far!!! ❤❤
I stumbled across this podcast. So MUCH info I needed to know in this journey. I truly believe God is preparing me for marriage. Y’all are dropping all kinds of gems and nuggets of knowledge. Thank you!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Pastor Glenn thank you! Thanks for having my Pastor❤.... Nuggets: Value system, chose to love, naked truth, and a man findeth a good thing and findeth favor.❤❤❤
This was a good session. I'm glad I'm around intentional women and men. I see the world but I refuse to be a part of the confusion. Once you start doing better, you surround yourself around better and you'll find better.
I would like to know the 10 questions, I can't find it on the site. I know now to ask questions and communicate more. I know more about the guy I am currently dating for a couple of months than any other guy I've actually been in relationships with for years. We talk about everything from 1yr old to 99. TY ❤
Yes Yes Yes I agree, let’s meet up at the park or Small coffee shop and get to know each other. Let’s see if the vision & values align. Am all in on that Ps. I shared this with 20 people in my contacts. That’s how valuable the content was to me God bless y’all
