I've never heard of Nona, but I can totally relate to her life. I was sexually abused by my mothers boyfriend at 9. After I told my mom nothing happened, he was still in our lives for many years. She even had my brother by him. I can't tell the whole story here but I'M HEALED NOW 🙌🏾🙏🏾❤ BLESS GOD
Look up her on Better Together and she’s got stories about so much more that really enlightened me to her whole strength and stuggle! She’s so impactful
When she said “The Protection of God is worth so much more than Companionship”, I dropped tears🔥🔥🔥!! Some of us wonder why certain doors were closed to certain relationships and it’s all God’s protection! He sees what we can’t see. Thank you Jesus!!! 🙏🏾
I'm a Therapist, and I hope this episode gets The Most views. Rejection is at the root of attachment injury! And Nona's Holy Spirit inspired reframe IS So Powerful!!
“It doesn’t matter who left you in the field. It doesn’t matter who walked away, who abandoned you, thought you weren’t good enough, said you’d never be anything…God knows where you are” 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you so much for this! As a woman and the mother of daughters, this *hits*. My 17 year old chose baptism this month. She was baptized wearing her "ACCEPTED" shirt that she got at your Winterjam appearance in PA last winter. That shirt means so much to her, after a s*icide attempt last year that came from peer rejection. She's a beautiful, smart, talented young woman. But this whole episode deals with why none of that matters when you feel deeply rejected. Please know that your work matters! These messages are reaching those who need it!
I am so grateful for my husband and church family for keeping me lifted up in prayer when l lost my left breast to a deadly type of cancer at the age of 39.
I am screaming listening to this podcast for this happened to me. Got the BBL out of insecurities and years later its non existence. I had NO business doing that procedure for my body was fine the way it was. I heard guys make comments when I was younger saying how pretty I was BUT if I only had the curves to compliment the face. Now keep in mind those same fools didn't have a pot to piss in nor a window to throw it out of but I allowed those voices to follow me for years. My husband was against me doing it but yet I didn't think I was enough. A body part does not define who you are. Thank God I didn't lose my life being a foolish woman for so many other women didn't make it off the table. Now I am thriving in life and loving me AND my body...no regrets; just lessons learned.
I was married to a guy who always told me how unattractive i am,got a BBL at 33 I'm 36 and I had no business doing that surgery I don't even like a big butt I'm more into fitness now,14 years of being attached to that abuser why did I stay I still don't know
It’s always the bm saying “you flat chested, your body is like a sliding board” now all these hurt and bm rejected women are also being laughed at, filmed in public, told you didn’t have to do that… on and on… BW don’t care about what bm says anymore so they should take notes from wm play book and shut up and stop talking about our bodies….but they won’t so the bbl surgeons are booked all day everyday
"The Protection of God is worth more than companionship " wow! We can really trust God, his timing and just love him, seek him , live for him and he will provide.
Mom should've been arrested for child endangerment the moment she picked up a child sex offender from prison with the victim/ her daughter in the car. Tragic
Omg yessssss. Like WTH. And how did he only get so few years? Did someone lie and say he didn't do it. That is so wild. I was literally saying in my head, "She not bout to say her mom brought this man back to the house." I am so glad she is healed.
This was the interview that Ive needed all my life…I made an intention recently to heal my self esteem and worthiness..this was exactly what i needed to hear! I pre-ordered her new book and ordered “Killing Comparison” it will be here tomorrow. Im so grateful to you Lacrae for having her on and my Fiance met you in person years ago..he was a security guard at a Marriot Resort here in Orlando and you and your family was staying there and he helped you figure out your rooms. He said you were so nice and i’ve always been a fan of yours! Keep doing what your doing..God bless you and everything you do!☺️☺️
Thank you father for another day; forgive me father for my trespasses. Thank you father for your guidance and your purpose for me. Blessings to everyone. Amen
Awesome interview on rejection. Ladies accept who The Most High God created in you. Nobody else can be you. That person HE CREATED is the One who will attract YOUR LIFE'S SUCCESS. Stick with the Most High God. He makes no mistakes. Nobody needs no EXTRA WEIGHT on no part of your body. All diz fake hair, nails, bbl, etc. Lose the Weight of Life's shallowness and dumbness and LIVE!
I clicked so fast-this is so timely! A few years ago, someone told me my nose was too wide. Until then, I loved my nose. That comment planted a seed of doubt, which eventually led me to get a nose job. I don’t hate it, but I’m still trying to understand why I felt such a strong desire to be “perfect.”
Body shaming is real in the black community. After losing her breast mentally my mother was never the same . That happened in her late twenties.The surgery was not successful with her breast implants and that led to more health issues. They exploded in her chest Love yourself with or without breasts or a bottom thick thighs whatever Your health mental living is more important.❤❤ Encouragement for you and me can save some ones life. Be blessed
Mhmmm. Young black woman with small breast's and narrow hips...rough times. Smh...that was years ago but every now and then, I don't think I look "filled out" enough in my clothes
This was such a beautiful conversation and sooooo necessary. As I’m on my journey of healing and learning to truly be free, I needed to hear every word. So grateful for this woman of God. 🙌🏽
This has helped my perspective on rejection, especially the stories about David in the field by himself and not being picked for the dinner with Samuel and the irony of Samuel then saying no we are not gonna start without him, go get him 😮.... God really be sooooo intentional! Loved it 😊😊
“What rejection can teach you about yourself and others is the gift” Nona, you better preach! 👏🏿 So happy to see that she’s written a new book, as her book “Killing Comparison” blessed me tremendously! So much so it gave me the courage to write my own. Excellent interview ‘Crae! 🙏🏿💜
Thank you sister Nona Jones for telling your testimony. As a Christian, single mother. It is hard. But the rejection I truly, really appreciate it now. Thank you Jesus.
Teach your children everything you know about how the enemy tricks them to believe opposite of what the Bible says so they have to learn it for their life to be on the right track
God saved her. When God showed her that Facebook page He allowed to see what He protected her from. I saw this for myself when an old high school boyfriend. I was devastated by the breakup. My ex ended up having children and hopping from state to state due to child support. Thank God for rejection.
I rarely make public comments: HOWEVER, This was the most POWERFUL and IMPACTFUL interview; I have ever encountered or watched. The Lord truly spoke through you Nona, and gave me instantaneous clarity to things He had previously or was already in the process of revealing and addressing in me. I am so incredibly grateful for this episode. Thank you!
Great message! Rejection is very painful, in the words of Billy Gaines “ I cried with my whole heart my God what have i done to deserve what im going through!” but in the end as Nona said, you learn so much about yourself, you learn so much about people, you learn to have confidence in God, and it all launches you towards your God given destiny!! 🙌🏾💪🏾🙏🏾
"The protection of God is worth so much more than companionship". I am done. I can stop the podcast right there. I am taking that one into 2025!!! Thank you Nona!!!
This was really good. First time hearing of this lovely lady. While her beginnings is heartbreaking, Yahweh elevated her and showed his might. His protection and love for us is unmatched.
I am so happy to see Nona! I love Nona!! ❤❤❤ I am crying through this. Thank you for being so vulnerable. My prayer is that young men and women who may be struggling will watch this.
“If you live for their acceptance, you'll die from their rejection.” This really hit deep. Listening to this was edifying. Great lessons learnt. Thank you @LecraeOfficial and Nona!
This was actually my first time watching and listening to your podcast! So Powerful that I subscribed💕This conversation is so Important and Informative! Thank you God for obedience throughout my new journey🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 May God continue to Bless you Both🙏🏽
Great convo!! Dr. Nona has such a powerful testimony and she is so profound and wise. Love to hear he speak and her ministry overall. Thanks Lecrae!

Nona this isn't the first time that I listen to a podcast where you're the guest but this???!? Wow. This blessed me tremendously, Imma have to buy that book cuz clearly God has a word for me in there. Thank you for your transparency🙏🏾
Wow Lecrae the Holy Spirit is in you this is a great podcast and I absolutely love Nona! Yall go in deep guess that’s why you and the Lord called it the deep end &we are all here for it. I’m so happy you brought her on the pod she is absolutely beautiful inside and out strong and brilliant as well. Thank you 🙏🏼 Bless y’all!💕
This interview is so relatable. Thank you for being so transparent. From childhood trauma, BBL consideration (small booty being a black women) while being married, happy and "successful" 😩 so relatable.
This was the best interview. This spoke to me so much. I’m listening and hearing the confirmation of the rejection that I’ve been receiving constantly from trying to get promoted knowing my work is likely elsewhere.
What an awesome interview. I connected with several of her points of being rejected during my childhood and into my adulthood. Because of that pain, it has caused analysis paralysis in moving forth in fully starting my business. I will be purchasing both of her books. Thanks Lecrae for bringing Nona Jones on your show.😊
honestly to Lecrae I just want to say all the way here from SA that this word was such a blessing God honestly used you as a vessel to help pin point some areas in my life stay blessed
This has been such a powerful interview. I’m so glad that I listen to it. I feel like my heart has healed after more than any therapy I’ve ever been to.
WOW!!! Before now…I didn’t know Nona, but PRAISE GOD for this interview!!! I am so blessed to know her and her story NOW!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I am so interested in more from her! I will be following her from now on.
Listening to the 5 Days after it Aired, what the Holy Spirit Shared through Nona for me: "The rejection David experienced was the training ground for what he would encounter and need to defeat Goliath" The Rejection is the Training Ground for your Success - 🔥🔥
Wow..this has blessed me so much. I felt like I was listening to my own story. Foundational rejection by my mother, men in and out growing up, being overweight (no eating disorder), the want to be wanted, and processing all of it by the Grace of God. Thank you Nona for your courage in writing and sharing your life experiences! I’ll be buying the book asap
I stumbled across Nona giving a Bible lesson five years ago in which she also shared part of her story. Have been following her since. I feel God brought her to my attention because He knew this book was going to be written. I have been rejected on many occasions in my life like many of us. As soon as I heard the book was being published, I preordered it! Can’t wait to read it!
I love this so much 💕 I live in the same city as Nona and have always been in awe of her story and what God continues to do through her. There are a lot of similarities in my story and hers, and right now, even dealing with the rejection of those that are supposed to love you, and the constant battle of trying to do things to be "seen" and feel "accepted". Healing is hard. I'm slowly getting to the place of ACCEPTING the GIFT of rejection. Thank you Nona for your transparency.
Rejection is protection. I was in a relationship with someone for 7 years and he ended things. God was chasing me the entire time, I’m sooooo absolutely grateful for that ending and my eyes opening 💕💕
Lecrae, I’ve been watching/listening and enjoying the podcast so much that when you mentioned handing your mixtape to someone, I had to think and remember that you are a rapper. Your podcast is so good I nearly forgot you were amazing at other things. Come on brotha!
This interview has blessed my socks off!!!!! I must order Nona's book and get to work on self. I have been boo hooing with all this revelation and ministering to my spirit because I was hurting and feeling low about my constant struggle and failure with trying to lose weight. Thank you! I know what I need to do
This is so refreshing. I never heard of Nona Jones, but I have now. I am buying the book. It is so refreshing to hear her talk so openly. I am so sorry what happened to her as a child. She has overcome so much. The BBL. We all need to listen to the Holy Spirit when he talks to us. I love that she said I can be the gospel, not a Bible thumper. I appreciate that.
This hits me so deep with what I have walked through in my personal life! Thank you for putting words to my internal pain I have walked with in myself and people that tears as a single person has ever known thanks you yall
This is powerful. ❤ I am a therapist and a lot of things she discusses aligns with what I encounter. I definitely will be getting the book. Keep inspiring Nona
Yeah me and my family (body wise) the same way! Lord....rough growing up, but I am too old for some BBL. This is so deep. My brother constantly tells me I need to get married, but yet he constantly calls me "too skinny." So, I tell him no one would want me...like you said, "I am too skinny!" Also, like Nona stated you do see all of the built women on social media, and the men saying that's what they want. However, I think back to when the BBL was not even an issue. So, I realize trends change. Also, I realize how many women, beautiful and "Built", are still cheated on or murdered by their husband, ex whatever. So, I say to myself I'm Good ...love yourself the way you are.
You are beautiful just the way you are, you are right trends change and I pray God forgives and convicts your brother for not highlighting your beauty and reassuring you that your time will come to settle down ❤❤
When I tell you I fight the urge everyday. It's so real what you're talking about. I got roasted everyday of my life as a teenager In Middle School about having a flatty Patty. And they wonder why we grow up and have such body dysmorphia issues. Even as an adult I still struggle so hard with this. To the point where I deleted all of my social media I just have youtube. But I still struggle with what I see on TH-cam. But your point is so real that you can look like beyoncé. You can look like meg the stallion. You can look like all of those girls and still get cheated all upside your head. These men are full of lust and they're trying to feel a bottomless pit driven by their flesh and it's never going to be fulfilled. Until they themselves have a come to Jesus moment.
@@earlem9771No THEY DON'T!! I want to address a significant issue regarding body image and societal expectations for women. It seems that when it comes to skinny women, there is often pressure to change or conform to certain standards. However, larger women are frequently celebrated for simply existing and being beautiful, while others are criticized. This double standard creates a vicious cycle that many women struggle to break free from. People often generalize and forget that not all men are attracted to the same body types, and beauty can be found in all shapes and sizes. It’s essential to recognize these biases and understand that everyone deserves to feel beautiful and confident in their own skin. By challenging these stereotypes, we can foster a more inclusive environment for all women. Thank you for considering this perspective.
This episode is SO relatable and amazing. I never pre-ordered a book so fast. Thank Nona for sharing your story and thank you Lecrae for bringing us another gem! This episode is so inspiring!
Wow!! This was so beautiful I started it yesterday and finished today and I remembered every single detail. This testimony is so powerful God was really in the room. I just want to thank you’ll for being obedient to the call on your lives❤️🙌🏽
Excellent interview with/ Nona! I can’t wait to read this book…it’s on preorder now. Lecrae, you are a gift from God to not only the Body of Christ, but Sir, you are a gift to the world. Love, Grace, Peace🙏🏾❤️
Thank you for this today. I am listening and will stand still in this my season of rejection and feeling unwanted in a relationship I think is all I need. Never again! WoW! This is alll for my good.
Soo good! I needed to hear this and I’m in my 50’s. I think of my teen daughter and girls her age that struggle so much with rejection. Thank you for sharing💕🙏
Lecrae I had no idea you had a YT Channel. Thank God I found you. you already know, I subscribed. I love you, your wife, family and everything about you. You are such an inspiration. May GOD and CHRIST BLESS you and your family. Please give my LOVE to them all. Keep up the FINE work that you are doing. You are LOVED and GREATLY APPRECIATED. 🙏🤟🥰💝💖
Wow this spoke to so many layers of my emotional pain. Thank you guys! Just leveled up here. Definitely getting this book. Nona you are gifted and an inspiration. Lacrae you are a great interviewer. May God continue to bless you🙏🏽
How do you handle rejection and insecurities?
I used to go to the closet and ugly pray.

You said it best! "If you live for people's acceptance, you'll die from their rejection." ~Lecrae

This was a nice interview. I hope that it inspires and uplifts women suffering with self confidence and past traumas.
honestly to Lecrae I just want to say all the way here from SA that this word was such a blessing
God honestly used you as a vessel to help pin point some areas in my life stay blessed
This is one of the best episodes ❤-I received healing from rejection in Jesus name. Thank you for letting God used you to bless your generation
I am thankful for this deep end it has helped me tremendously and showed me why God has allowed rejection in my life wow Thank you Abba
This episode was so good, I'm so blessed and delivered. God bless you pastor Nona and Brother in Christ Lecrae. May God keep using you guys.
Love listening to Nona and currently reading her book "The Gift of Rejection" so on time in my life right now ❤️🙏🏾
This has been such a powerful interview. I’m so glad that I listen to it. I feel like my heart has healed after more than any therapy I’ve ever been to.
WOW!!! Before now…I didn’t know Nona, but PRAISE GOD for this interview!!! I am so blessed to know her and her story NOW!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I am so interested in more from her! I will be following her from now on.
Listening to the 5 Days after it Aired, what the Holy Spirit Shared through Nona for me: "The rejection David experienced was the training ground for what he would encounter and need to defeat Goliath" The Rejection is the Training Ground for your Success - 🔥🔥
Wow..this has blessed me so much. I felt like I was listening to my own story. Foundational rejection by my mother, men in and out growing up, being overweight (no eating disorder), the want to be wanted, and processing all of it by the Grace of God. Thank you Nona for your courage in writing and sharing your life experiences! I’ll be buying the book asap
I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this conversation!!!💚💚💚
This was good!! Thank you both for the transparency and the value of rejection!!! Blessings
I stumbled across Nona giving a Bible lesson five years ago in which she also shared part of her story. Have been following her since. I feel God brought her to my attention because He knew this book was going to be written. I have been rejected on many occasions in my life like many of us. As soon as I heard the book was being published, I preordered it! Can’t wait to read it!
preach it sister!! that was a great message about David
I desperately needed to hear Nona's compelling and impactful testimony and your insightful and attentive feedback, LaCrae!! Thank you both.
I love this so much 💕 I live in the same city as Nona and have always been in awe of her story and what God continues to do through her. There are a lot of similarities in my story and hers, and right now, even dealing with the rejection of those that are supposed to love you, and the constant battle of trying to do things to be "seen" and feel "accepted". Healing is hard. I'm slowly getting to the place of ACCEPTING the GIFT of rejection. Thank you Nona for your transparency.
Rejection is protection. I was in a relationship with someone for 7 years and he ended things. God was chasing me the entire time, I’m sooooo absolutely grateful for that ending and my eyes opening 💕💕
Lecrae, I’ve been watching/listening and enjoying the podcast so much that when you mentioned handing your mixtape to someone, I had to think and remember that you are a rapper. Your podcast is so good I nearly forgot you were amazing at other things. Come on brotha!
This interview has blessed my socks off!!!!! I must order Nona's book and get to work on self. I have been boo hooing with all this revelation and ministering to my spirit because I was hurting and feeling low about my constant struggle and failure with trying to lose weight. Thank you! I know what I need to do
As a woman who is on a weight loss journey, this has truly helped me! Thank you so much for this episode.
This is so refreshing. I never heard of Nona Jones, but I have now. I am buying the book. It is so refreshing to hear her talk so openly. I am so sorry what happened to her as a child. She has overcome so much. The BBL. We all need to listen to the Holy Spirit when he talks to us. I love that she said I can be the gospel, not a Bible thumper. I appreciate that.
This hits me so deep with what I have walked through in my personal life! Thank you for putting words to my internal pain I have walked with in myself and people that tears as a single person has ever known thanks you yall
Her message is powerful❤❤❤ If I can be honest, my childhood abuse has left me stuck in so many ways. I applaud my sister for her determination
This conversation was powerful!!!!! Thank you! God bless you both!
I ❤ what you're doing here. Making a space for people to heal. This is so needed and with you being a man makes it just that much better 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is powerful. ❤ I am a therapist and a lot of things she discusses aligns with what I encounter. I definitely will be getting the book. Keep inspiring Nona
Yeah me and my family (body wise) the same way! Lord....rough growing up, but I am too old for some BBL. This is so deep. My brother constantly tells me I need to get married, but yet he constantly calls me "too skinny." So, I tell him no one would want me...like you said, "I am too skinny!" Also, like Nona stated you do see all of the built women on social media, and the men saying that's what they want. However, I think back to when the BBL was not even an issue. So, I realize trends change. Also, I realize how many women, beautiful and "Built", are still cheated on or murdered by their husband, ex whatever. So, I say to myself I'm Good ...love yourself the way you are.
Really if you are skinny, all you need to do is work out and eat more food to build up your body's muscle mass
You are beautiful just the way you are, you are right trends change and I pray God forgives and convicts your brother for not highlighting your beauty and reassuring you that your time will come to settle down ❤❤
When I tell you I fight the urge everyday. It's so real what you're talking about. I got roasted everyday of my life as a teenager In Middle School about having a flatty Patty. And they wonder why we grow up and have such body dysmorphia issues. Even as an adult I still struggle so hard with this. To the point where I deleted all of my social media I just have youtube. But I still struggle with what I see on TH-cam. But your point is so real that you can look like beyoncé. You can look like meg the stallion. You can look like all of those girls and still get cheated all upside your head. These men are full of lust and they're trying to feel a bottomless pit driven by their flesh and it's never going to be fulfilled. Until they themselves have a come to Jesus moment.
@@earlem9771No THEY DON'T!!
I want to address a significant issue regarding body image and societal expectations for women. It seems that when it comes to skinny women, there is often pressure to change or conform to certain standards. However, larger women are frequently celebrated for simply existing and being beautiful, while others are criticized.
This double standard creates a vicious cycle that many women struggle to break free from. People often generalize and forget that not all men are attracted to the same body types, and beauty can be found in all shapes and sizes.
It’s essential to recognize these biases and understand that everyone deserves to feel beautiful and confident in their own skin. By challenging these stereotypes, we can foster a more inclusive environment for all women.
Thank you for considering this perspective.
BM needs to keep their mouths off our bodies…. White men wouldn’t dare!!
This episode is SO relatable and amazing. I never pre-ordered a book so fast. Thank Nona for sharing your story and thank you Lecrae for bringing us another gem! This episode is so inspiring!
Wow!! This was so beautiful I started it yesterday and finished today and I remembered every single detail. This testimony is so powerful God was really in the room. I just want to thank you’ll for being obedient to the call on your lives❤️🙌🏽
Excellent interview with/ Nona! I can’t wait to read this book…it’s on preorder now. Lecrae, you are a gift from God to not only the Body of Christ, but Sir, you are a gift to the world.

Soo good! I needed to hear this and I’m in my 50’s. I think of my teen daughter and girls her age that struggle so much with rejection. Thank you for sharing💕🙏
Wow! This really blessed me and encourages me to view rejection from a different lens. Can’t wait for the book!
