I think this is the first man I've ever heard that admitted that HE is the problem. He admitted that men manipulate us women into believing that WE women are the problem and we're the ones doing something wrong. This really just confirmed for me that being a good woman and single does not mean something is so terribly wrong with you (even though we're all flawed). Sometimes men just aren't ready for a good woman.
When do you go back to the gym? Did you admit to giving up aka cutting people off quick as a defense mechanism? Most women do this and wonder why they are single. If you struggle with forgiveness and giving good men a second chance you will always be single. Just a fact that most people don't want to listen to.
@@Rashaadthegr8 I go back Friday evening and then Sunday morning. I forgave men I just cut them off. I'm not writing a life story here. When I see you in person again we can talk all about it. (FORGIVENSS DOES NOT MEAN RECONNECTION). Can we also talk about how most men think they are good and they really aren't? And just because a man is good doesn't mean that he is good for me. I've met men who may be good but I know that he and I would not work. Those are all possibilities that men don't seem to discuss. You all would reall rather sit up here and believe that women don't like good men when the reality is that women love good men. In the past almost every good man I've met was already taken.
@@jess_is oh ok. I won't be in town until the 22nd. What days you typically go? What's your # so when I'm back we can go together? since you don't have an iG. lol. Yes I know just beacuse you are a good man doesn't mean you are the guy for that woman. But what I am saying is I know women who have been in a relationship with men that cheated or abused then for years and didn't leave. But meanwhile will but a good guy off or ghost him for any reason it happens with me, my friends, and I know it happens to other guys. Forgiveness doesn't mean recoonnection you right. That's the problem. Peple don't even know how to give second chances to the ones who deserve it . My philosophy which most poeple agree with . Most Women spend all their 20s with dudes that may or may not apologize and don't want to get better and just lie. So y'all waste all your second chances on them instead of with a man who will use that second chance and actually strive to get better each and everyday. Then by early to late 30s you have to come out hte gate like black panther or out the booth like super man because one mistake is all it takes to be cut off. And by mistake or something small It could be double texting, asking a hard question, etc. Alot of women don't want good men they rather compalin to GOD we don't exist instead of just giving us a chance especially when y'all know we better than the ex that cheated on you or beat you up. Let's be clear my defintion of a good man is a priest, protector, and provider. A good man is not someone who does't mess up or makes mistakes. Its someone who learns from their mistakes and failures and always tries to improve in EVERY area of their life. Alot of people have a defintion of a good man but I am goign with the biblical defintion just to be clear. I am a great man of GOD/grat black king and on my way to becoming phenomenal and I am super duper uber single. So so much for that lie. And we met.lol. So what's good? lol.
@@jess_is Alot of women say they ready for marriage but can't cook, forgive, give second chances,budget, etc. Why u deleted your comment from my post? Lol. I only had two women in my entire life admitted it was there fault relationship didn't work out.
@@Rashaadthegr8 okay if you're going by the biblical definition of what a good wife is, a woman knowing how to cook ain't it. Because no where in scripture does it say women have to know how to cook. In fact men normally do most of the cooking due to women being 'unclean' during that time of the month. I'm a great cook fyi, I teach people how to cook and have a culinary background in fine dining but even if I didn't know how to that wouldn't take away from the fact that I'm a good wife.
I had to pause when he said, the woman that he is looking for must have a deep relationship with God. Not just something wishy-washy but someone who cries out to God when they are in trouble. That brought tears to my eyes because I remember prior to being married, I had this thought that for a second it sounded like a fairytale. The thought was "if I find a man that is submitted to God, we will be ok" That seed was planted in my mind, heart and soul and that was what I found in my husband. Now whenever I talk to my friends I tell them the same thing. Matter of fact, I say to them "if he/she is not submitted to God, it makes no sense" Now I have a testimony that it's not a fairytale, but real. God needs people together to fulfill his purpose.
Yes God does. God wants us to be intentional about the purpose(s) of marriage and ministry. I can honestly say I have never dreamt of my wedding/husband/ children when I was younger. Those things didn’t interest me. Being single with no children at the age of 51 stings a little bit now, but I thank God that He has allowed me to wait on the right man at the right time. God is continuing to use me for His glory as a single woman to fulfill other purposes He has planned. I’m okay with that because He knows what’s best for me.
I Plan to search for a relationship coach. Unfortunately I grew up in a family of broken and bitter souls. My mom and biological dad were in a very dysfunctional relationship.
It’s refreshing to see a man who genuinely loves God and is truly healed (not perfect), obviously the process is never over but he is whole. He and his future wifey will have a blessed marriage 👌🏽
I loved this interview. His maturity and humility are honorable. His transparency and your transparency are inspirational and healing. What I learn here is helpful for me and others that I share with. This podcast also causes me to be more graceful. I can't wait to see the speed dating. @Laterras, continue walking and working in your purpose.
This was a great interview. He is a man I pray for: 1. Submitted to God. 2. Desire to grow + build in covenant. 3.Desires a woman also submitted to God. 4. Is transparent about communicating the "tough" stuff 5. Lives & Loves on purpose & with intention. Thank you for this interview . Confirmation that are many men out there after God's heart & it can happen. 👏🏾 🙏🏾🤎
The maturation phase is as long as the dash. We all must strive to mature/grow every day, be it spiritually, intellectually, emotionally etc. It definitely takes effort on all levels both individually and with our various levels of relationships. We are a work in progress until Jesus takes us home.
I'm so glad to finally hear a man not just talk about getting a "Proverbs 31" woman I was so tired of always hearing that all the time about women in church and NEVER hearing anything about the man's responsibilities.
I was getting ready to go to bed and I thought about what you said, “a person can wake up one day and tell their spouse I don’t want to be with you anymore I’m out” God said let every man be a lie and let God be true meaning, we as believers practice putting our trust in God, this is why it’s so crucial to acknowledge him in all of our ways and he promises to direct our paths. It is God who knows the future and he said he has a plan for us and that plan is good. When a man of God marries a true woman of God, he don’t have to worry about her waking up one day randomly saying im out of here, not because she’s perfect or doesn’t fall short at times but because of the God in her won’t allow her to comfortably remain outside of his Will and as a believer, there are guidelines for marriage & divorce and when she values pleasing God she will honor her vows not only to her husband but to God. At the end of the day whatever happens it won’t be more than a believer can bear and all things will work together. The point is, if God says yes, rest in knowing that he has his child’s best interest at hand and it’s safe to take her or go with him because Gods instructions are trustworthy. Lastly how do you know, by asking God to reveal who your spouse is to you and he will in the way that he knows to for you, his word says if anyone lacks wisdom he should go to God who will give freely to all who ask. Open up the word of God, pray and expect him to answer. That’s it captain lol GN
This man right here!!! God has definitely done a work through you. Praying he sends you not just a Woman but The Woman he’s created for you. Your rib. As a woman, it’s refreshing and encouraging to know that there are Kingdom minded men like you for us single Kingdom Women. We need more men to submit themselves to the Lord to be able to lead our homes, our children, our neighborhoods, our churches and even our nation. So glad I watched this episode. So so good 😊!!!!!
Latarrus, your adoption journey is playing a huge role in in your journey to find your future wife. By you practicing your grace muscle with your boys, it’s strengthening that muscle for the grace that you will need for a successful marriage. Your journey is beautiful, inspiring, & as you say…dope! This guest is wise beyond his years. He has a pure/ beautiful spirit. The fact that he even knows to say Proverbs 1-30, is commendable. I love how his mind work & I pray that he finds a young lady that will appreciate his rarity. Keep it up you king. God bless you both.
Hes in my age group and this is so refreshing to hear. It often feels like the men in my age range are the exact opposite and I often feel like maybe I'm out of luck and too late to find someone. This was encouraging.
It’s so rare to find men like him my age that have this type of wisdom which is from no one but God. He will make a great husband. Awesome interview guys!
It is super rare to hear someone his age talk like this! There are 50+ year olds (men and women) who still Don’t get it. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the both of you.
I respect him for not getting married when he knew he wasn't ready . My hope in trusting God for my husband continue to be inspired from watching your channel. Another good episode ❣🙏🙏🙏
I don’t want it if God isn’t involved. Reasons why I love this podcast 🙏🏽❤️ God I know the man you have for us is on the way and he is something special!
Another profound episode, you always up the bar. Wholeness is important for us to be effective in every area of our lives. Introspection is critical to not only know where we are at, but how far we are from where we are supposed to be. Imagine a world where everyone was gracious. Imagine a marriage where grace prevailed above everything else
Awesome interview! It’s refreshing to hear a young man desiring to please God especially in his journey of finding a wife. He is going to be an amazing husband and father. God is saving a special gem for him. Beautiful testimony in the making.
First of all I'm catching up on the episodes I've missed: at 37 single lady, it makes my heart smile knowing there are still black kings after God's heart still and to know that they want marriage as well. This man spoke so eloquently and by the way he speaks you can tell God is his father. I loved this alot. Also, I know someone who says there aren't men abstaining and to know he is at his age, makes me believe more.
As he is looking for his Proverbs 31 Woman, he is becoming the Proverbs 1-30 Man. Come on Josh!!! Great episode! I love his level of submission. Laterras, as always you are amazing. ♥️
It is so wonderful & powerful listening to a men of God speak! I love a smart man but a man that has the wisdom & knowledge of God 🙌🏾🙌🏾 .... Lord Jesus, your daughter is patiently waiting for that man of God you have for me🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😁
"Everyone wants to feel loved in their mistakes." P R E A C H! May you both continue to grow as men of God. May His will be done in your lives to bring glory to His kingdom. 🙏
“Proverbs 31 woman ... What verse are you!?” Loool! 😅💀 I like this guy but I’m not athletic 😅 so I won’t be joining the live. I really pray he finds a great fit. Thank you so much for this episode. My heart is so full 😊. I’ve left really hopeful that the man I desire truly exists. Thank you Josh! Thank you Laterras! Sooooo excited to watch the live and the wedding. God about to show out! 💃💃💃💃💃 Laterras, you're sooo intentional and generous! Taking notes 📝
Whew.. This episode was phenomenal. The transparency. The honesty. The healing. Completely lead to God, it’s apparent. Thank you so much for this episode! I have thee perfect wife for him… 😌 lol!!!!
I was taught that Experience is NOT the BEST teacher ( it is a teacher), but The best teacher is LISTENING then you can avoid certain issues. Listen to a quality Mentor!
Wow, Yesss, Proverbs 1-30!!! I stumbled upon this podcast last year and wondered what it could be about! I fell off, and this year started again. As a single woman, you often lose hope and wonder if you'll ever meet your “ rib mate”! This year I am seeking Christ in everything and especially in a relationship! Good luck to everyone that's in this season of seeking God! Thanks for the podcast. It's fantastic!
Another AMAZING episode! This young MAN is grounded and rooted in his relationship with God. The fact that Josh realized what he was doing wrong in all his relationships and decided to make a change is the most authentic and mature thing I have ever seen a MAN do! Talk about ACCOUNTABILITY! I pray this young MAN finds an AMAZING WOMAN! 😊🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️ #YouGotThisJosh #GodIsAMAZING
I love this, somebody's son once told me that "I was too good for him", looking back I can't help but perceive it was his insecurities that was bleeding through when I was excelling and succeeded in ways that may have been threatening to his ego. Now this brother has done the work, when he finds the one, he will TRULY know how to love her in the way that she deserved to be loved and vice versa :)
🗣listennnn, this young man is so mature. That’s who should have a podcast unlike those willy nilly, fly by night loud mouth out there talking nonsense. He’s refreshing! Whomever the woman is that attracts his heart, mind, body and soul, yes laud!
Josh, your wife is definitely going to be blessed and covered by you as you will by her. May God continue to keep you and bless you. Thank you for choosing to find comfort in some discomfort as you navigate this life in honoring God. Wow…okay ladies!! Josh sounds to be ready!! 🙌🏾 This was a delight to watch/listen to! ❤️
Listen authenticity, healing, maturity, and transparency will always be attractive. I pray you will soon meet God's Best for you Josh. Thanks Laterras for another great message.... I mean episode.
REQUEST Laterras, could we have more on the Proverbs 31 Man. Maybe a deep dive series in the future with a different gentleman for each episode. If God puts it on your heart, I think it would be powerful.
JESUS!!! This young man came out the gate SWANGIN'. In the first FOUR minutes he said he was seeking God's face🤯🤯🤯and echoed this sentiment throughout. My my my he will lead a Kingdom family. Beautiful ❤️
Good episode! Very good point about him wanting a wife that loves God and has a relationship with him. He said not just surface love for God! That’s very important
Our men and women need to be delivered to be restored. I personally don’t know how Christians can walk this life without the word of God every hour. The moment you surrender to Jesus, you become allergic to sin including fornication. I’m glad this dude is reading the Bible. …. Keep your head in the Bible and be prepared to be amazed.
I love how he covered his sisters. Essentially if a daughter doesn't have a great example with her Father, they will misconstrued what love looks like.
It's refreshing to see a younger guy who has come to the place where he knows what he wants and is conscious of who he needs to be to recieve it/her. I pray tomorrow's live works in his favor. Great episode!
Refreshing to hear a man as young as he is say men make it seem like the woman is the problem but all the time it is the man that is the problem. I also find that men have a hard time taking responsibility for their part and put it all on the woman SMH. Another great episode. I learned somethings.
This is what happens when you live for God having that personal authentic relationship with Jesus Christ.Total submission to the Lord bn honest with yourself. For his age his dropping alot of wisdom may God give him his rib.....Godbless,seriously how ol is this guy ..when he start talking about a father's love MAN!!!
Such a breath of fresh air 🥹it’s soo encouraging & lovely to see that there are still men who are intentionally seeking God’s Face & are hungry to do life God’s way… 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 May God bless you both with your future purpose partners ❤️
WOW this conversation was amazing . I enjoy every topic. I pray that Josh he will find his wife for it truly show he is ready .. May God continue to bless you in every way for you are a vessel to many men. To hear you admitted that He is the problem and take accountable is refreshing to know men of your latitude do exist. Thank you for sharing your journey .. appreciate you . Thank you Laterras for having such a spiritual/profound TH-cam/ Podcast show You have been such amazing and great blessing to me and other of whom i have share and speak to other about your show . THANK YOU ~~much blessing to YOU !!!🙏
At first glance I thought that this man was about 22 & im thinking to myself well he’s too young to consider marriage & his story won’t apply to me . But I’m glad that I decided to watch the podcast bc he’s very mature & his story did speak to me . This man speaks w wisdom & I hope he finds his match & live in martial bliss & impact generations . (If you’re not good in an area , get yourself a coach ) 💎 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Us cougars will sit this speed date session out. Nevertheless, a thought provoking conversation. My takeaway is where there is competition there is defeat.
Another powerful episode! Such an amazing young man! It gives me hope to see that there are still men striving to be Christ like and desire a godly marriage! Prayerfully, my future husband will have the same desire for God and comes soon. I cannot believe that Laterras is setting him up on a speed date! That's awesome!
This was an amazing episode. I love how mature and self-aware Josh is. It is so encouraging to hear a young man admit that being dishonest within himself is the reason he has not found his purpose partner and made a commitment to her. He has done and is continuing to do the necessary work that reveals to him that it's not just something wrong with the young ladies. I also love that he's not allowing pride stop him from seekin premarital counselling. This podcast continues to encouraged during this season of waiting for my purpose partner, and I'm learning so much all at the same time!
Lovely story. We don't always get it correct the first time or even the second. But to do inventory on our own self see where we go round and try to make the revelant changes. I never been around healthy relationship/marriage. I always wanted and still do wanted a man that loves the Lord. But because of not learning myself and values and take time with God,I choose wrong more than ones. After my third baby and the pain I went through by myself with her. I know I need not to be In any relationship and seek the Lord and his plans for my life. Armany may God continue to bless u and your Dad who loves u very much. U just listen and dad won't lead u wrong.
Great episode! I pray this young man finds a suitable (wife) purpose partner. I loved the analogy of the teammates having contention between them, and how it postures you for failure- not winning. I also loved how Laterras reveals some tools he used to become a better listener. (Duly noted.)😊
Just breath taking, this interview was amazing. I am impressed every episode, but this one wow just blown away to the fact that a young man in my age group is so aware, god fearing and purpose driven. This man knows accountability so many great attributes. Latarrus I thank you for each episode and message that the lord brings to you, to share with us. Each episode I learn something new🙏🏿
Josh...you are definitely ready to be a husband!❤ I enjoyed your honesty and telling it like it is and why you haven't found the woman God has for you. When a man really knows what he wants in his life, and he's working towards it, whether it's, a job or a relationship or getting married or buying something he needs and he doesn't just want to have it, there's nothing on earth that can stop him. Father God, you know what your son Josh needs and the woman you will bless him will be the one you want for him, in the mighty name of Jesus. HALLELUJAH AND AMEN!!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Thanks Laterras...💯💗 Can't wait for tomorrow's episode.
Wow !!! 🙌 I truly am feeling blessed after hearing this podcast. Thank you so much. I too believe that when the time is right that GOD will put me in front of the man I am meant to marry and I will know instantly that he is the one . In the mean time I will work on myself and learn to love myself as well as to grow as an individual while being single . Sometimes I feel like there is a lesson to be learnt while I am in waiting and that God is preparing me for something . I will wait patiently on THE LORD. 🙏
We discover ourselves along with flaws when we spend the necessary time with ourselves. When we hand those flaws over to God, He teaches us humility and self love. Powerful podcast brothers🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏👑👑👑
This was Amazing and transparent dialog Josh and Laterras!🔥🔥🔥 And THANK YOU for speaking on how someone will play with someone's mind when its that person not dealing with themselves and becoming whole. I just found Jade's THE DASH podcast today before I watched this. And we should put away childish things as adults in relationship with others and not just romantic ones. Don't just look grown up, BE Grown up too👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💕
Very interesting and that was deep when he says he was dishonest with himself alot of men won't admit this and that's why they can't keep a good woman. They need recognized that they are the problem. Love it ❤️
THIS. Someone who is not only submitted to the Lord, but is intellectually in a relationship with the Lord. By the way he speaks and acts you can truly tell Jesus is his homeboy. ❤
I absolutely loooooooved this! Smiling the entire time. I couldn't believe my ears the words Josh spoke and his demeanor and wisdom at his age is amazing! I am so happy for him. He is clearly radiating with God's presence. Very blessed.
Thanks again Mr Whitfield this was a soul searching interview. I was sitting at the dinner table enjoying my KFC and my coworker called me regarding getting out of her relationship because she is unable to submit to a man who haven't healed from his past and at the same time been forced into marriage by persons who doesn't know this man. I made sure I introduce her to your program Thanks again
28:12 - 27:32, was great example of what I meant... If that makes any sense. 20:50 is what I've told everyone who wasn't ment to fit the glove 🥊 I just didn't know any better smh......
How Armani feels about adoption and being replaced to another family is how I feel about relationships. smh. We got to be better christians. More loving, more forgiving, just like God does to us. We just shouldn't go to church but be the church.
Please send me your phone number. I'd like to call you. I've noticed something in the way you comment that I'd like to unpack. Simply go the contact section of TH-cam
This was another awesome conversation and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's live! Laterras, why aren't you speed dating for yourself on your channel? I know I'm geeked to see you with your future wife and I'm sure others are too.
I think this is the first man I've ever heard that admitted that HE is the problem. He admitted that men manipulate us women into believing that WE women are the problem and we're the ones doing something wrong.
This really just confirmed for me that being a good woman and single does not mean something is so terribly wrong with you (even though we're all flawed). Sometimes men just aren't ready for a good woman.

We need more men to submit themselves to the Lord to be able to lead our homes, our children, our neighborhoods, our churches and even our nation. So glad I watched this episode. So so good 😊!!!!!
Latarrus, your adoption journey is playing a huge role in in your journey to find your future wife. By you practicing your grace muscle with your boys, it’s strengthening that muscle for the grace that you will need for a successful marriage. Your journey is beautiful, inspiring, & as you say…dope!
This guest is wise beyond his years. He has a pure/ beautiful spirit. The fact that he even knows to say Proverbs 1-30, is commendable. I love how his mind work & I pray that he finds a young lady that will appreciate his rarity. Keep it up you king.
God bless you both.
Hes in my age group and this is so refreshing to hear. It often feels like the men in my age range are the exact opposite and I often feel like maybe I'm out of luck and too late to find someone. This was encouraging.
It’s so rare to find men like him my age that have this type of wisdom which is from no one but God. He will make a great husband. Awesome interview guys!
Agreed. It was refreshing to hear this level of maturity in a young man. Their union will be worth the wait. God has a special gem reserved for him.
It is super rare to hear someone his age talk like this! There are 50+ year olds (men and women) who still
Don’t get it. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the both of you.
That Part 50+ that don't get it or just rather live wreckless and be of the world.
When 2 Kings 👑 talk and share wisdom it's life changing. Thanks Josh and Laterras. Blessings 🙏🏼
I respect him for not getting married when he knew he wasn't ready . My hope in trusting God for my husband continue to be inspired from watching your channel. Another good episode ❣🙏🙏🙏
This episode blessed me. Such great insight on a man’s perspective and a Christian man’s perspective. ❤
I don’t want it if God isn’t involved. Reasons why I love this podcast 🙏🏽❤️
God I know the man you have for us is on the way and he is something special!
Very good... knowing who you are in Christ first is the foundation...wow Josh I pray you find your purpose partner soon 💕
Another profound episode, you always up the bar. Wholeness is important for us to be effective in every area of our lives. Introspection is critical to not only know where we are at, but how far we are from where we are supposed to be. Imagine a world where everyone was gracious. Imagine a marriage where grace prevailed above everything else
Awesome interview! It’s refreshing to hear a young man desiring to please God especially in his journey of finding a wife. He is going to be an amazing husband and father. God is saving a special gem for him. Beautiful testimony in the making.
First of all I'm catching up on the episodes I've missed: at 37 single lady, it makes my heart smile knowing there are still black kings after God's heart still and to know that they want marriage as well. This man spoke so eloquently and by the way he speaks you can tell God is his father. I loved this alot. Also, I know someone who says there aren't men abstaining and to know he is at his age, makes me believe more.
I agree. I'm 42 and this episode was encouraging, insightful, and confirmed some things. It was so good I watched it more than 2 times.
This was so good. His wife will be a lucky woman.
As he is looking for his Proverbs 31 Woman, he is becoming the Proverbs 1-30 Man. Come on Josh!!! Great episode! I love his level of submission. Laterras, as always you are amazing. ♥️
I love this Podcast! Always Blessing my Socks off, especially hearing the Journey that Men go through for Self-Love, God's Love etc.
It is so wonderful & powerful listening to a men of God speak! I love a smart man but a man that has the wisdom & knowledge of God 🙌🏾🙌🏾 .... Lord Jesus, your daughter is patiently waiting for that man of God you have for me🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😁
"Everyone wants to feel loved in their mistakes." P R E A C H!
May you both continue to grow as men of God. May His will be done in your lives to bring glory to His kingdom. 🙏
“How are you going to lead someone if you haven’t submitted to the Lord?”
Such a blessing to see Kings who loved God being featured! It reminds me of God’s promise to pour out his spirit on young men and women.
“Proverbs 31 woman ... What verse are you!?” Loool! 😅💀
I like this guy but I’m not athletic 😅 so I won’t be joining the live. I really pray he finds a great fit. Thank you so much for this episode. My heart is so full 😊. I’ve left really hopeful that the man I desire truly exists. Thank you Josh! Thank you Laterras! Sooooo excited to watch the live and the wedding. God about to show out! 💃💃💃💃💃
Laterras, you're sooo intentional and generous! Taking notes 📝
There is safety in a multitude of counselors (Proverbs 11:14)
Whew.. This episode was phenomenal. The transparency. The honesty. The healing. Completely lead to God, it’s apparent. Thank you so much for this episode! I have thee perfect wife for him… 😌 lol!!!!
I haven’t listened to this new podcast but….. I KNOW IT’S GOING TO BE GREAT!!!! 🤩
I was taught that Experience is NOT the BEST teacher ( it is a teacher), but The best teacher is LISTENING then you can avoid certain issues. Listen to a quality Mentor!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I accidentally found this podcast a few days ago. I have been so blessed already. Thank you for this platform.
Wow, Yesss, Proverbs 1-30!!! I stumbled upon this podcast last year and wondered what it could be about! I fell off, and this year started again. As a single woman, you often lose hope and wonder if you'll ever meet your “ rib mate”! This year I am seeking Christ in everything and especially in a relationship! Good luck to everyone that's in this season of seeking God! Thanks for the podcast. It's fantastic!
Another AMAZING episode! This young MAN is grounded and rooted in his relationship with God.
The fact that Josh realized what he was doing wrong in all his relationships and decided to make a change is the most authentic and mature thing I have ever seen a MAN do! Talk about ACCOUNTABILITY!
I pray this young MAN finds an AMAZING WOMAN! 😊🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️
#YouGotThisJosh #GodIsAMAZING
Another One...You can't Trick Yourself...Hamster Wheel...Treadmill...This Young Man is Throwing so Many Nuggets...❤
I love this, somebody's son once told me that "I was too good for him", looking back I can't help but perceive it was his insecurities that was bleeding through when I was excelling and succeeded in ways that may have been threatening to his ego. Now this brother has done the work, when he finds the one, he will TRULY know how to love her in the way that she deserved to be loved and vice versa :)
A
Laterras, you are at 123k subscribers. Those numbers keep climbing 👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🎉
🗣listennnn, this young man is so mature. That’s who should have a podcast unlike those willy nilly, fly by night loud mouth out there talking nonsense. He’s refreshing! Whomever the woman is that attracts his heart, mind, body and soul, yes laud!
This is Everything! He's READY. Bless him Lord, Bless him❤️🙏🏼🙌🏼
I'm thankful to hear that there ARE men willing to be accountable AND wait until marriage.
Did he ever find his potential purpose partner?
You’re making me cry… that is so beautiful… “pursuing Armani”
Josh, your wife is definitely going to be blessed and covered by you as you will by her. May God continue to keep you and bless you. Thank you for choosing to find comfort in some discomfort as you navigate this life in honoring God. Wow…okay ladies!! Josh sounds to be ready!! 🙌🏾 This was a delight to watch/listen to! ❤️
Listen authenticity, healing, maturity, and transparency will always be attractive. I pray you will soon meet God's Best for you Josh. Thanks Laterras for another great message.... I mean episode.
REQUEST
Laterras, could we have more on the Proverbs 31 Man. Maybe a deep dive series in the future with a different gentleman for each episode. If God puts it on your heart, I think it would be powerful.
JESUS!!! This young man came out the gate SWANGIN'. In the first FOUR minutes he said he was seeking God's face🤯🤯🤯and echoed this sentiment throughout. My my my he will lead a Kingdom family. Beautiful ❤️
Good episode! Very good point about him wanting a wife that loves God and has a relationship with him. He said not just surface love for God! That’s very important
Our men and women need to be delivered to be restored. I personally don’t know how Christians can walk this life without the word of God every hour. The moment you surrender to Jesus, you become allergic to sin including fornication. I’m glad this dude is reading the Bible. …. Keep your head in the Bible and be prepared to be amazed.
I love how he covered his sisters. Essentially if a daughter doesn't have a great example with her Father, they will misconstrued what love looks like.
This is refreshing. I love that God confirms that there are men out there that genuinely desire marriage with God being the foundation. Thank you. =)
It's refreshing to see a younger guy who has come to the place where he knows what he wants and is conscious of who he needs to be to recieve it/her. I pray tomorrow's live works in his favor. Great episode!
You can always tell when a man had a father (or a consistent father figure) growing up. They tend to be more poised and well thought out.
God is amazing...I was really starting to give up hope on good men and here God goes displaying His glory in this young man!!!!!!
Refreshing to hear a man as young as he is say men make it seem like the woman is the problem but all the time it is the man that is the problem. I also find that men have a hard time taking responsibility for their part and put it all on the woman SMH. Another great episode. I learned somethings.
I will definitely REwatch this episode…. So many gems here! Everything I needed to hear from a man’s perspective
This is what happens when you live for God having that personal authentic relationship with Jesus Christ.Total submission to the Lord bn honest with yourself.
For his age his dropping alot of wisdom may God give him his rib.....Godbless,seriously how ol is this guy ..when he start talking about a father's love MAN!!!
If you are single, I hope you join the live tomorrow
Josh is very wise for such a young age. No shade or disrespect but I have never even heard a man in their 50s or 60 speak in this Godly Perspective.
Such a blessing and refreshing to hear this interview! Amen.
Very wise young man. Powerful segment. Perspective......
Very mature man. I really appreciate this interview.
Wow, I’m super early! Haha, got those notifications on. Thank you for this! I will watch when I’m not at work.😀
Such a breath of fresh air 🥹it’s soo encouraging & lovely to see that there are still men who are intentionally seeking God’s Face & are hungry to do life God’s way… 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 May God bless you both with your future purpose partners ❤️
WOW this conversation was amazing . I enjoy every topic. I pray that Josh he will find his wife for it truly show he is ready .. May God continue to bless you in every way for you are a vessel to many men. To hear you admitted that He is the problem and take accountable is refreshing to know men of your latitude do exist. Thank you for sharing your journey .. appreciate you . Thank you Laterras for having such a spiritual/profound TH-cam/ Podcast show You have been such amazing and great blessing to me and other of whom i have share and speak to other about your show . THANK YOU ~~much blessing to YOU !!!🙏
I love you Lateras for the Love you have for your sons!!!So emotional ...again very rare...God will honor you Great
At first glance I thought that this man was about 22 & im thinking to myself well he’s too young to consider marriage & his story won’t apply to me . But I’m glad that I decided to watch the podcast bc he’s very mature & his story did speak to me . This man speaks w wisdom & I hope he finds his match & live in martial bliss & impact generations .
(If you’re not good in an area , get yourself a coach ) 💎 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Oh Lord Jesus! This man has wisdom and thank goodness we finally have a man who steps that wanna be married. Praise God!
Us cougars will sit this speed date session out. Nevertheless, a thought provoking conversation. My takeaway is where there is competition there is defeat.
Another powerful episode! Such an amazing young man! It gives me hope to see that there are still men striving to be Christ like and desire a godly marriage! Prayerfully, my future husband will have the same desire for God and comes soon. I cannot believe that Laterras is setting him up on a speed date! That's awesome!
No longer want to WIN! Waiting to submit to my PERSONAL PARTNER. 🙌🏽🙏🏽
I’m only 21 minutes in and I have so many things to say! This guy is on his way somewhere! Wow
This podcast has changed my life. God I thank you for My future wifey and The vision that you have placed in Mr. Whitfield
Finally someone speaks on the Proverb 31 man! Great reflection of how God cares for and prepares his children who submit to his will.
This was an amazing episode. I love how mature and self-aware Josh is. It is so encouraging to hear a young man admit that being dishonest within himself is the reason he has not found his purpose partner and made a commitment to her. He has done and is continuing to do the necessary work that reveals to him that it's not just something wrong with the young ladies. I also love that he's not allowing pride stop him from seekin premarital counselling. This podcast continues to encouraged during this season of waiting for my purpose partner, and I'm learning so much all at the same time!
Lovely story. We don't always get it correct the first time or even the second. But to do inventory on our own self see where we go round and try to make the revelant changes. I never been around healthy relationship/marriage. I always wanted and still do wanted a man that loves the Lord. But because of not learning myself and values and take time with God,I choose wrong more than ones. After my third baby and the pain I went through by myself with her. I know I need not to be In any relationship and seek the Lord and his plans for my life. Armany may God continue to bless u and your Dad who loves u very much. U just listen and dad won't lead u wrong.
Great episode! I pray this young man finds a suitable (wife) purpose partner.
I loved the analogy of the teammates having contention between them, and how it postures you for failure- not winning. I also loved how Laterras reveals some tools he used to become a better listener. (Duly noted.)😊
Just breath taking, this interview was amazing. I am impressed every episode, but this one wow just blown away to the fact that a young man in my age group is so aware, god fearing and purpose driven. This man knows accountability so many great attributes.
Latarrus I thank you for each episode and message that the lord brings to you, to share with us. Each episode I learn something new🙏🏿
WE LOVE YOU KING LATERRAS!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💞💞💞
Thank you so much for the love! It means the world to me!
@@DearFutureWifey you are sooo welcome King!! GOD has brought you too far to let the enemies tear you down!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Josh...you are definitely ready to be a husband!❤
I enjoyed your honesty and telling it like it is and why you haven't found the woman God has for you.
When a man really knows what he wants in his life, and he's working towards it, whether it's, a job or a relationship or getting married or buying something he needs and he doesn't just want to have it, there's nothing on earth that can stop him.
Father God, you know what your son Josh needs and the woman you will bless him will be the one you want for him, in the mighty name of Jesus. HALLELUJAH AND AMEN!!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thanks Laterras...💯💗 Can't wait for tomorrow's episode.
(Psalms 119:105) Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Thank you, Josh Young, for "open" and refreshing interview. Laterras #DearFutureWifey is a message from heaven for all my sisters.
Alright now Josh, you're coming through with a word. Talk about it.
Wow !!! 🙌 I truly am feeling blessed after hearing this podcast. Thank you so much. I too believe that when the time is right that GOD will put me in front of the man I am meant to marry and I will know instantly that he is the one . In the mean time I will work on myself and learn to love myself as well as to grow as an individual while being single . Sometimes I feel like there is a lesson to be learnt while I am in waiting and that God is preparing me for something . I will wait patiently on THE LORD. 🙏
We discover ourselves along with flaws when we spend the necessary time with ourselves. When we hand those flaws over to God, He teaches us humility and self love. Powerful podcast brothers🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏👑👑👑
This was Amazing and transparent dialog Josh and Laterras!🔥🔥🔥 And THANK YOU for speaking on how someone will play with someone's mind when its that person not dealing with themselves and becoming whole. I just found Jade's THE DASH podcast today before I watched this. And we should put away childish things as adults in relationship with others and not just romantic ones. Don't just look grown up, BE Grown up too👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💕
IN ORDER TO MATURE YOU HAVE TO BE ROOTED IN LOVE (ED)
Very interesting and that was deep when he says he was dishonest with himself alot of men won't admit this and that's why they can't keep a good woman. They need recognized that they are the problem. Love it ❤️
Wow. 34 with so much wisdom.
THIS. Someone who is not only submitted to the Lord, but is intellectually in a relationship with the Lord. By the way he speaks and acts you can truly tell Jesus is his homeboy.
❤
I absolutely loooooooved this! Smiling the entire time. I couldn't believe my ears the words Josh spoke and his demeanor and wisdom at his age is amazing! I am so happy for him. He is clearly radiating with God's presence. Very blessed.
Thanks again Mr Whitfield this was a soul searching interview. I was sitting at the dinner table enjoying my KFC and my coworker called me regarding getting out of her relationship because she is unable to submit to a man who haven't healed from his past and at the same time been forced into marriage by persons who doesn't know this man. I made sure I introduce her to your program Thanks again
A Proverbs 1 through 30 Man!!!! Whoooaaa!!! I love that, I am definitely holding onto that as a standard for my future!
So smart & wise... thats Dope
& i grew up the same, only girl
& middle child of 5.. i feel it help
with my dating/ relationship journey
Oh LAWD!!! Child if you was older !!!!
28:12 - 27:32, was great example of what I meant... If that makes any sense. 20:50 is what I've told everyone who wasn't ment to fit the glove 🥊 I just didn't know any better smh......
Your sister must be so proud watching this.
Hey sis👋
How Armani feels about adoption and being replaced to another family is how I feel about relationships. smh. We got to be better christians. More loving, more forgiving, just like God does to us. We just shouldn't go to church but be the church.
Please send me your phone number. I'd like to call you. I've noticed something in the way you comment that I'd like to unpack. Simply go the contact section of TH-cam
@@DearFutureWifey how I'm send it?
This was another awesome conversation and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's live! Laterras, why aren't you speed dating for yourself on your channel? I know I'm geeked to see you with your future wife and I'm sure others are too.
