    These two actually seem to be chosen for each other. They seem very natural and honest.
    Prayers they are always blessed🙏.

    I think you are two of my favorite Duggars. I am a grandma but enjoy watching positive Christians who are seeking God’s will in their lives. Our world is way too full of negativity, legalism & people running the opposite way from it.
    Im encouraged by this. I can see God’s peace on your sweet faces.

    Thank you for your wisdom. My husband and I were baptized as adults before we were married but after we already had our first child. We decided at that point not to be intimate again until we got married. We got married 9 months later. You can start over. God's mercy's are new every morning. That decision changed our marriage for the better. And I truly believe that obedience so early in our faith did not go unseen by the Father. To Him be the glory 🙌🏻

    Questions for Q and A:
    1. Katey, do you still do ministry work?
    2. How has your relationship changed after having your sweet baby?
    3. Are you involved in community activities?
    4. If you cook, Katey, a cooking video would be awesome!

    I could feel the love through my screen. There was zero “ fakeness”. You truly both are a light to many young couples. I am 60 & love my husband more today then many years before. I pray that you have this joyful love when your 60 too, but based off this video, I think you two will only grow in love & light led by Our Father…Bless you both.. your so sweet, and truthful in your care for others xo

      As a Mother of 3 grown daughters & now 9 Grandchildren. I TRULY MUST stop for a moment to say to both of you; but especially Katey… that this story is beyond inspirational and NEEDS to be shared to as many young people AND even ADULTS who desire to have a Truly godly Christian relationship/ marriage or even simple Friendship…
      I could literally write volumes about this so PLEASE share and keep sharing!!! Spread this story ❤🙏!!!

    I grew up watching your show and you’ve set an amazing example to other Christian families. I’m now courting my current boyfriend and we have set some very similar boundaries. This is the first relationship I’ve ever been in that was Christ centered and it’s the healthiest relationship I’ve ever been in as well. Love you two and keep spreading the ministry.

    Who came up with name Truett Oliver?
    Do you plan on having a theme when naming your kids?
    Will you be letting God decide how many kids you'll have?

    I love your love story!! There is such a difference in dating to marry and dating to say you have a boyfriend!!! I wrote a list of all the characteristics I want in my spouse. When I met my husband he checked every box. We’ve been married for 24 years and I don’t regret not having any other boyfriends. My husband wishes he would’ve did things differently before he met me. Seeing him give our sons dating advice is the best. He’s speaking from experience and wants to save them the heartache he experienced.

    • @SarahsPets2004

      Why? Dating around let you decide what you want and what you don’t

    • @OkayCoolGuy
      @OkayCoolGuy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I dated prior to meeting my husband and I decided to make a list myself because I'm not into wasting my time with serial dating. Sometimes we need perspective to catch red flags before we adjust to them as "quirks." My husband and I celebrate 11 years married, 13 together in October. It doesn't mean it won't have challenges but that list helped me say "no" to character traits that were terribly toxic.
      My ADHD/ASD brain does not pick up on social cues like some folks do, so lists help me tremendously! Congratulations on 24 years!

    It is so refreshing to hear peoples love story’s that aren’t all about sex and are more focused on serving God not worrying about what the world thinks you should do. If God truly made that person for you the intimate portions of the relationship will be exactly what you desire after marriage. I appreciate your honesty and witness for the Lord.

    Y'all are a great example of a Godly couple. My husband and I were parents to teenagers when we started hanging out. We purposed to spend all of our "long distance" time with the children, for accountability but also if God didn't call us to marry, then we had a great friendship. It was important for us to wait until marriage for intimacy, but we kissed when we got engaged (9 weeks before the wedding). Looking back, I wish we had waited until the wedding day to kiss. God is the God of redeeming lives. It IS possible to wait until marriage for intimacy, even though you already have children. I would encourage any young woman, or man, to write down the list of desires for a spouse and pray over that list daily. Some of the strange requests I had of God on a potential spouse were realized, and it's just so humbling to have God answer those prayers specifically. (Side note, my first grandson's name is Truett - great name!!)

      Nothing wrong with the other couples who lovingly gaze at one another when the other of the couple is speaking.
      Personally, I find the gazing at each other to be endearing...and I see it as a sign of their mutual espect and admiration for each other.
      It seems to me like many people are just trying to find something....anything...that they can point a finger at this family .. and then say.. " Aha..look at them..they are.weird" ..
      when, in reality, they are no more " weird" than the rest of the zaney, broken, fallen, messed- up, degenerate and a- moral world.

    I loved how you both pointed out about having the same love💕 language! It's so very important to me and others, too! It means a natural connection, not an effort to 'remember' to nurture the other person in a way that doesn't come as natural! When life gets busy, that kind of relationship nurturing is so important to keeping a solid foundation, being intertwined on a soul level that's natural makes for long term happiness! Glad you shared such an important point! I also liked how each of you "listened" to each other. Hearing is one thing, interrupting is another thing, but "Listening" is respect and is a secret to long term happiness! I am quite impressed, I enjoy your videos, Katey is an absolute gem, nice getting to know her!💖😃

    When you know you want a marriage that is Christ-centered, you can skip all the game playing so many young men and women do these days during the dating stage. You can go right to talking about "real" things, truly important things. Through these "real" discussions you find out quickly if the person might be who you want in a spouse or isn't at all who u want.

    • @ParisNicole21

    First off thank you for the encouragement at the end as a single lady I could relate to a lot of what you were suggesting especially deepening my faith that is a area I am working on. Growing up my family didn't go to church so it wasn't til college when God brought my friend into my life who invited me to her church and has helped me so much in my faith. Thanks for always being so encouraging and wanting to see the best for your viewers. A fun video idea might be to do a video with Jer and Hannah (I don't know if you live close to each other) the video could be a Q and A together or anything else you think of I just think it would be cool with Jed and Jer obviously being close and it seems like Katey and Hannah get along really well as well for you guys to do a video together if Jer and Hannah were okay with it.

    I am so happy for yall and I know a little something about putting God first and allowing Him to guide your steps. I've been married to my husband for 35 years and we did everything wrong in the beginning. We have learned through the years and going through our ups and downs because we both made mistakes, we now let God guide our steps. Praise God that you two have your faith now and know that trusting God is the only way. God bless you both and I'll be praying for you guys.

    This touched my heart so much and i needed to hear it. I am a 31 year old girl who has never had a significant other. I was shy growing up and kind of socially awkward. As I grew up I developed many different health problems and even now I am in need of a pancreas/kidney transplant. It is hard seeing my friends get married and have children. Basically what i am saying is that THANK YOU for your message. Auch an encouragement to me.

      @Kaylynn Anderson -God bless you. Like Jed said, keep praying seriously to God to bring your future spouse to you. Our God hears our prayers. He can do miracles still!! He could really turn your life around. I will pray that you will receive the transplants you need, and that God is preparing the heart of your future spouse. Hang in there. Take good care. 🙏

      I have an adult son who grew up in the church from before he was born. Later, became part of our worship ministry. His dad and I talked a lot to him about praying for God to bring a Godly woman to him. Well, after years of waiting and going through college, he went with the ways of the world. My heart is so broken. He use to talk to my husband and I a lot. The world caused there to be a wedge between us and him. That part is super sad. He wants me to apologize to his gf, who he is unequally yoked with for not being happy about the relationship. What should I do? If you could answer what the Godly thing to do would be, I would be so grateful. Jed- I heard you say....a woman who loves her parents... That really struck a cord with our situation. We are really hurting. It is a joy to see such a young, faithful couple. May God bless you both with many years together!!🙏

      @@kc26119 First of all God bless you. My heart breaks for you. I say go hard in prayer and keep praying about it. Outside of that gently let your son know that you see, what you think or, some incompatibilities BUT if he loves her you will love her too. Remember love is a decision not a feeling. Yes he's probably making a wrong choice, but I think the wise thing to do is to bite your lip and pray. HE WILL see it in due time. But the more you argue against her, the more wronged she'll look and the more wrong you will look. And when, or if,, he comes to you for advice with a problem (b/c they're coming) bite your lip and DON'T speak ill of her (that'll backfire on you). Take his hand and offer up the situation to God in prayer. My prayers go out to you.

    How special, what a beautiful story ❤️ my husband and I did everything backwards, started having kids at 19, got married at 21 and now we have 4 kids and just celebrated our 20th anniversary. After loving each other since the 7th grade, I thank God everyday that I got pregnant at 19 or I wouldn’t have the beautiful life I have now. ❤️❤️❤️

    • @rinaticson390
      @rinaticson390 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We did it backwards too. We were engaged when I was pregnant with our first child, but we were married when I was 7 months pregnant with our twins. We have now been married for 24 yrs.

    • @linak7155
      @linak7155 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Doing things 'backwards' implies there's a better or at least a different approach to doing something. Scripturally speaking, there is a right way of approaching the marriage covenant. God's design is for two people of the opposite sex to enter into marriage and love on one another for life. Having a wedding means little when there's no commitment to work through life's challenges.
      In an age where marriage and divorce have become so common place - whether secular or Christian - it is refreshing to hear of couples who although have chosen a more unpredictable start have chosen to stay faithful and forgiving of one another. Children thrive when there's a Dad n a Mom.

    I made a lot of poor choices at a young age (and had a lot of things forced upon me at an even younger age which influenced me later), and I learned the hard way about "soul ties" and the damage caused by sexual relationships with those you're not married to. After I became a Christian, I had a lot of work to do to break those ties and heal emotionally and spiritually.
    Thank you for sharing your story about your choice to save yourselves for marriage.
    I know that my journey was much more difficult than it needed to be because I didn't choose to do the same. I had my first child at 14, and though I wouldn't change having her or my wonderful grandchildren, it affected later choices (like not going to college) and it was very difficult. I was extremely blessed to find a Godly man who loved her as his own, and we had two more beautiful daughters. He passed away exactly one week after our 20th wedding anniversary in 2010.
    You two are such a sweet young couple and I pray that you have many long, blessed years together! 🙏✝️❤
