    Met her today standing at the coffee stand 1/6/2024 and I complimented her ring. She said she been married 52 years and I said wowwwwwww!!!! Always ask the secret to being together for so long. She said I don’t argue and God she love her husband. She gave me her podcast to watch and we departed from each other. Went to my table and I looked to the left she walked up to me and gave me a certificate to eat that she wasn’t going to need because her and husband were leaving. I gave her a hug and told her thank you. Beautiful woman and I’m happy I had conversations with her

    As someone who was married to a wife who was stricken with brain cancer, their story really touched me. I remember the days when my Angel was really sick and I had to be strong for the both of us. The days when she lacked the energy to do anything, I had to do everything and I loved every minute of it because, I loved her and we took our vows aseriously. We were married for 5 years and she fought until the very end. Not a day goes by that I don’t wish that I could’ve taken her place. These two are truly a blessing from above. They show the true value of marriage, they are absolutely amazing and beautiful and to my wife Toya, your husband will always love and miss you my Angel.

    When she spoke about his cancer it made me cry. This was dope. I have to say that this level of trust is earned, notice how she said she believed he can do anything. That's because he's proven himself to her over and over and over again. The trust that people desire isn't something they just get, you have to show a woman that she can fully trust you because you have a history of doing what you said you would do and not failing. Please remember this when you say that you want trust over love.

    Thank you so much King for airing this episode, I can totally identify. I’m from Ontario Canada, May of “2018” I was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer which spread to my brain. The doctors said there’s nothing they can do for me, and gave me a certain time to live. To cut a long story short, I’m still here today, praising my Jesus, and giving thanks to Almighty God. I refuse to die! Death cannot touch me, it’s not my time to go, my purpose is not yet finished. I want to get married again, and I asked the Lord for another chance to do it right. I now have the understanding that marriage is more than have sex legally, it is designed by God, to show off Christ and the church.

    We became best friends after the first 5 years, and as I write this message in year 13 of marriage , we STILL choose one another and work hard at our marriage.

    Watching this has really allowed me to look at marriage differently. I have been married for 19 years and I am ready to leave. I feel as though my husband does not understand me and that we have grown apart. I feel as though he is no longer in love with me. He kisses me but only on a smack on the lips. We do not spend hardly any time together. He has his own company and I am a PO and we have recently opened and transitional home for women. He never supports anything that I do. I pray for our marriage and that our relationship gets better and that God does something fast. We are now not even sleeping in the same bed. I have said some really hurtful things to him and he has done the same. There is no respect anymore. But I REALLY LOVE MY HUSBAND AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT OR EVEN IF MY MARRIAGE IS REPAIRABLE. I continue to pray for revival. I was so blessed to see this couple. It is about the size of your obedience. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

    When I tell you I haven’t moved since I clicked on this episode. This is such a healing episode. When God has given me the ability to believe in marriage again. I’m so thankful to know God will give me a marriage that will give God glory . The reason why I say that is because he gave me a testimony in 2019 and the story is still developing . But I know my marriage will give God glory . The way God is still using this couple in their 51 years in marriage. As well as this podcast .. the way tears are flowing as you all ended in prayer .. it’s more I can say ..but whew
    And that point on fasting Jesus

    This episode blessed me! My husband and I have been married for 16 years and the wisdom these two imparted was so needed. Marriage takes work. It’s a give and take. It’s not easy, but with the right partner, it’s worth it. I’m currently going through a medical condition right now and Grandpa Ron’s testimony blessed me. We need more of these types of conversations to happen in and out of the church. I firmly believe that when we can hear stories of coming out in the other side of trials and how to treat our spouses, we’d have less divorce. Loved this episode so much! I could listen to them all day! ❤

    I’ve had so many disappointments in life. I lost my son to suicide. My husband who I loved dearly passed away from a massive heart attack. I haven’t stopped loving God. But to be very transparent, I was beginning to lose hope……that I would find joy in living life again instead of just existing. But after watching the Griffins and listening to them, I know that I know that God still has a plan for me….and that even after huge disappointments I can still have life and have it more abundantly. My heart was broken but I am in the hands of the Great Physician who is healing and restoring me. Thank you for this powerful and anointed episode. And yes, I used to work at Blue Cross. They called Ron Griffin the Silver Gray Fox back in the day and a lot of women were after him😂 I was just a kid then but I see there could only be one woman that God made for Pastor Ron…..Linda you are the BEST….spicy, real, transparent and loving.
