Came to say the same thing!! I love to watch them! Again then not a music video. The music is always so loud. PLEASE PLEASE TURN DOWN THE BACKGROUND MUSIC! 🤍😬
Alyssa bless your heart. Your house always looks good, especially with 5 kids, a husband and a dog. 😮 I like to know how you do it? Do you ever rest?😊 ❤ the Webster family. If you go to "I Love You Day" please tape a lot of it.❤
Hands down Q and A. But I'll watch whatever you guys put out. Good Job seeing the kids read their Bibles! Sorry your Bible was stolen Alyssa. Hope guys are able to go to the Bates Fam I Love You day this year! Hope you guys have a weekend! Blessings!
-can you recommend what Bible highlighters you use? -For a cleaning vlog....maybe...are you a minalmist with items in your home? If so, what tips do you have in that regard? I like to watch RU-vid videos of "Minalmist Mom". Just found maybe 6 months ago. I wish I would have had her ideas when my kids were young + like the stage your in with Young's. This gal home schools also. You seem so organized. Cute family. "Sr Gran of 5"
You and John in this setting is perfect! Would love to hear about the difference in John’s theological beliefs vs yours and how you came together. You seemed to have left the IBLP teachings you were raised with.
@@jeanpotter2163 yes they were or maybe even are. Nathan’s wife said in a post that he left that teaching when he became an adult. Bates went to the same IBLP conferences as the Duggars. Would love to hear how Alyssa came out of it. I bet it could help people.
@@gstaad71 They have talked about meeting at the conference. The man who was in charge of it back then was dismissed and it’s not the same. My understanding is that Mr.Bates has been trying to make it a place that can be trusted and that teaches the truth. In my opinion they could not have a better person to try to restore it to what it was intended to be. It’s obvious he and his wife have raised a wonderful family. Mr.Bates is a minister and loves his family. Mr and Mrs. Bates were never dogmatic about following IBLP. They wanted their children to know Jesus and love Him and have a deep faith. It appears to me that they have been extremely successful because everyone of their children are good, independent people. They were encouraged to go to college and pursue whatever they wanted to do as a career and in life. This applies to both boys and girls. If you watched the programs about the two families you can see the differences. You can also see the results of the way they were raised.
Just carry on, you both do it so well. Don't make it complicated it feels so real that way it is now. Thankfully far less intrusive questions this time for you to answer. We don't need every detail of your life and I am unsure as to why people think they have a right to know. Look so forward to your RU-vid every week. I always come away smiling after watching them.
I love all the things! I remember one of the first shows you guys did with BUB was where Alissa took off to clean other houses and offices as soon as John got home!
I love watching your videos but honestly the music is a big distraction while trying to hear you speak. 😞. I like to crochet while listening so subtitle’s don’t work for me. Just a friendly comment ❤️. Love ya all. Thanks for sharing your lives.
I love your new Bible! One of my daughters has that one. I love to take notes in my Bible. I am so sorry that yours got stolen! I’ve had mine since the 80’s and I’ve got so many notes,dates, answers to prayer in it…..I would be heartbroken if I lost it. So for that reason I don’t want a new Bible. 💕
Alyssa and John … My Hubby and I SO enjoy your weekly Vlogs. Q&A’s, Day in the Life, they are ALL amazing. Sending BIG Hugs and Best wishes to your BEAUTIFUL family! 💖💖💖💖💙
It was good to hear you talk about the bible and reading it, the kids reading...more videos please on your faith , on Jesus, how you and the kids/your relationship with Jesus out in everyday life, what God is teaching etc... i always feel like this is lacking in your videos
This is a Christian couple and most of us who follow are believers and we want discussions about God and His word. As both of them are believers, they don’t have to worry about people unsubscribing, because God will take care of them and all their needs.
What Bible reading plan is that? Where can I get a copy? I was impressed how well the girls were reading, btw. My Bible was stolen once as well -- in a totebag that my mil embroidered for me -- with several other things like my notebook, church directory (!), and a movie I was going to return on the way home that I ended up having to pay for! I was crushed also but never recovered any of that stuff 😞 Never noticed the music at all, and all your content is interesting to our family! Love to see your personalities 🙂
I developed a reading plan for myself a few years ago by dividing the Bible into sections like I saw on your weekly plan. Then I counted up how many verses are in each section and divided each by 365. Then I would read like 16 verses of the law, 20 versus of History books, three verses of proverbs, seven verses of Psalms, nine verses of the gospels, and 13 verses of the Epistles. It was one of the most successful yearly Bible reading plans I've had. But I did miscalculate somewhere and they didn't all end up perfectly on December 31st LOL but Id like to try what I saw your family doing -- a chunk each week instead of a tiny piece each day like I did that time.
I always love Q & As, but as for the "more kids" question id say we are not answering that look at our other Q & As. Also when Alyssa chuckled denying her violin playing, you looked like your older brothers. awe
Lol John's answer of the Air Conditioning stuff for first home impressions 🤣 My husband works in HVAC and also notices the HVAC stuff first. We will be eating out and he's looking at all the duct work if the ceiling is open
I do love whatever you are willing to share . I would love a Q& A with John’s mother. Like you did with yours Alyssa. Maybe John could ask her the questions etc . I love the Q&A’s I love for you to reflect back to see how much you have both changed since you first married.
You have a beautiful family ❤ I know you do abeka with your kiddos and I was wondering which lessons you do? The accredited ones or the unaccredited parent led videos and how that works? Could you do a homeschooling video?
I recently watched an old episode of Bringing up Bates and Alissa said she wanted at least 10 kids maybe more. Such a cute video…love the old shows and to see how you’ve all grown and with your own families. ❤
I love yalls Q&As. It’s prolly my favorite type of video but I do love the day in the life ones. Also, when you mentioned a cleaning series, you have posted before about that but back when yall first moved in. And mentioned you used to do that as a job? I think I’m remembering that correctly 💖
A Q&A focused on John. John has to answer all the questions. Or maybe a Q&A with the kids. Either would be fun. Thanks for taking the questions from RU-vid, I always wonder why people don't do that
I'm super close to you guys I'm in Summerfield near The Villages. You guys are a great family, parents, and people. I'm super you know how expensive it is to live in Florida, we purchased our house with five acres seven years ago for under $200,000 and it's insane with the prices especially in Marion and Lake County.
Thank you for the vlog 🙂 Q: do your girls attend any out of school activity e.g., sports, ballet, learning to play a music instrument, etc. Much love and blessings to you all 🙂
My Bible was stolen when I went to a Women’s Conference. LOL I loved my Bible, but literally laughed and thought…I just pray they read it and learn from it! 🙏🏼💯🥰🙌🏼
I love your Q@A but I love your content. I just don't understand why some folks want to say things that aren't true or make assumptions bc they don't understand something ❤️❤️🙏
Love you guys, this video was so fun, so real love it. I hope whoever took your Bible reads it and needs to read it and asks God for forgiveness in taking it. 😊
I’ve seen this comment before but PLEASE turn the music down, PLEASE! The volume is so high, some of us struggle to hear what you are saying. I enjoy your videos but please consider using the music for intros and exits, not while you are speaking. We want to hear you!
Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Friday afternoon and evening with the kids and a wonderful weekend ahead and can't wait to hear about the Q and A and baby Rhett is so cute and adorable and he will be 11 months old and he is getting big so fast.
Hey Alyssa and John. I like your vlogs, and I would also like video's of youc talking about certain subjects. Maybe you can try it with 1 or 2 video's and see how you and the public likes it. An assumptions video would also be nice! Have a nice day 😊
ASSUMPTIONS or Q & A is nice to me! 😊 QUESTION: Alyssa, When you dyed your hair dark brown (i believe around Michaella's wedding) Did you like the look? (I think you look like your Mother Mama Bates but the blonde version)
My church just did the whole bible in 30 days. Really good way to start off the new year. Just a few hours every night. It went by fast and now we've at least read through it cover to cover.
Our son just turned 6 and last year he and I read through the whole Bible. We are doing it again this year. We are reading ‘Day by Day kids Bible’ by Karyn Henley. It really is laid out well for Kids and goes through it all in a way our son totally gets it. It does take out some of the complicated this like son of son of. Etc. it is in Chronological order- in the order they occurred. For example David’s psalms with the stories about his life. Highly recommend it. I think it is good to read it this way so they get the full understanding…then they can go on and read the complete way and have cortex of what is happening.
Years ago when I was working at the Lake Beuna Vista Walgreens. I would read my Bible on my lunch hour. I guess the case it was in looked like a small laptop maybe. Someone broke my car open and stole it. Plus a few other things. I was upset over my Bible more than anything. But I figured they must have needed it.
I'm not sure what cleaning series was asked for but with our home improvement channel we will do different series of say how to clean your stove top, washer/dryer, shower etc.
I'm wondering if your daughters ever ask questions about the bible verses they read? Some of the Old Testament passages can be a difficult read. God bless your family and the beautiful example you are setting for them to see, loving parents is one of God's greatest gifts. ❤
I really enjoy your videos! You seem like such a fun family! On a side note, the music on this video was a little bit too loud. It was a little distracting trying to listen to what you had to say.
It’s sad your Bible was stolen, but it may lead to someone being saved. Your new Bible is cool! What version is it? I think y’all should do a video on Q&A. Keep taking advantage of dates … y’all deserve it . #marriageworks
@@kimmyclark1372 I have a wide margin one but it’s old and eventually I’m going to have to get a new one. I really like the one she has. So hopefully she will comment on the publisher.
I know the loss of something you’ve had for a long time and cherished is hard. Especially since you’ve taken notes and had them written in that bible, but I honestly believe that God knew all the study notes you had painstakingly taken and knew what a good job you had done and said this person needs this more than you.
Yes I have watched vlogs where all the person does is clean her house or goes to the grocery store and then I wonder why I’m watching it when I’m doing the same thing lol
