I never stop enjoying your videos. I find them inspirational and entertaining. The things you say that goes on between your husband and yourself I'm like yup done that can relate lol. Thank you for sharing about your family and showing your pics. I love seeing family pictures. Like I said before when you are in Heaven you are going to have the relationship you've always wanted with your Dad! Love to see you interview all your siblings! I'm one of those that parents are still married matter of fact their anniversary is Nov 30th, 1968. 53 years together. Even though you didn't have that you still have a wonder special relationship with your parents and siblings. Just as special as my family is to me. I think y'all are great. You have half siblings and you all get along and love each other that's is a HUGE BLESSING! Y'all are strong survivors should pat yourselves on the back. Everyone is alive, happy, and healthy some over come addictions. Loving the Lord. I'm proud of y'all! I hope y'all have a Blessed Thanksgiving and y'all have to make it up with Billy and have a belated thanksgiving with him! Love y'all!
Chynna, sometimes we grieve the parents we didn’t have. You are in your 50’s and are still married, a devoted wife and mom, a devoted daughter. You’re doing okay kid.
We are a product of our environment. We look back to work it out, then we work on the present. Trauma and neglect affect our brains. It's called desregularían and it affects our lives how we deal with life and with people and relationships. Crappy Childhood Fairy on TH-cam, and others too are helping people work through it.
Yes, the Many that grieve the parents that they didn’t have. That’s what keeps the jesus business going. That’s what the jesus freaks need and the NPD folks too. Sad really. Wish folks could get their inner power and not have to focus on fairy tales.💕💕💕💕
So nice of you to pay tribute to your nanny/housekeeper for being the wonderful person that she was and for all that she did to make you a happy child.
I've long respected you for sticking up for (my wording) Mackenzie. I think you're actually very grounded/down-to-earth, despite the celebrity, celebrity lineage. You've obviously got something special about you (and Billy) to have such a long marriage, particularly among famous people from famous families. You are a good influence in this world, in my opinion, and a very cool, beautiful person. ETA: You have often told the truth about things that are hard (to face). I won't go into the woods citing examples, just times you've been describing something and it occurs to me 'Wow, that is totally such a truthful, grounded response to something very hard'. It's really appreciated.
Most of us have had challenging and complicated family relationships. I find it hard to believe that are "perfect" families. This is why we need our faith with a perfect Father - our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! I'm happy to be part of this group that comes together in our faith. Thanks Chynna and all my Cal Preach friends here!! I'm a Long Islander and didn't realize you got married at the Catholic Church in Southampton - how beautiful!! Love these family stories. Thank you for sharing.
Family relationships are not all that "complicated." In almost any family, there are givers and there are takers. The takers screw things up for everyone.
I read a letter your Mom wrote about her dear friend Sharon Tate. She spoke with such sincerity and love. I knew from her words that she's a great soul and you get it from her.
I found out about Sharon Tate because when I was 19 a friend of mine and I went to a psychic for entertainment. ( yes my mother told me never go to one) This psychic told me I was Sharon Tate in a past life. I later looked her up. I could not believe anyone could do that to another human being. just to be clear, I don't think I'm Sharon Tate. She was beautiful, lovely and innocent. I cannot imagine how she must have felt going through that and knowing her baby was going through it too. So very sad.
I went to driver's ed as a teen (I'm 49 now) with Sharon Tate's niece, I think, (could be cousin's child), who was also named Sharon Tate, after her. She said it was weird because not only did her family tell her stories, but the world mourned her, and she carried her name, only being able to see her on screen.
Girl I had that same parental fantasy. My parents were just like your parents. I’m very happy you and Billy are still married. You are breaking the cycle for your kids. God bless you sister!
I love looking through the photo albums of my friends with them. They light up, tell stories, and I learn more about them. I felt like we were hanging out, and you were sharing your photo albums, scrapbooks, and your heart with me. Thank you. And I’m thankful for you.
I have to pray daily for the Lord Jesus to take all the bitterness and unforgiveness out of my heart towards my 2 Hippie parents. I fluctuate between anger and pity for them. My mother joined a Guru cult and took a vow of poverty with me in tow after my Dad left. Thank God I had been saved a year earlier, at the age of 9, with help of a shut in stroke patient. That lady saved my life by teaching me about Jesus, and I can look back and see how the Lord protected me through it all. Unfortunately I have learned that people become what they worship. I have no contact with my mother, but my relationship with my Dad seems to be softening and getting better. All I can do is pray and give my pain to Jesus. Love you Chynna!! Have a blessed Thanksgiving :)
How I needed this. I am hanging on by a thread. Father was an absent alcoholic who loved me so much but I only saw once he was gone why he lived so far away. My mother and her father started to not be so nice to me. Well my mother only looked the other way. When my grandfather who verbally abused me since I was 5. I have no support and I left an abusive attorney and left him and lost everything. Ty for this
I love that your wedding was over the top because it has lasted. The family pictures and those moments you can never replace. Your very blessed and I'm so happy for you embrace your memories and life. I'm glad you all have made it.
My folks were married in 1954. My Dad fought in Korea and Vietnam and dealt with the pain for fhr rest of his life. All of us face our trials and sufferings, Chyna. Let's unite our sufferings with Christ and He will give us rest. Thanks for the video!
@@forthwrite9304 The lyrics are “If you’re going to San Francisco”, so he didn’t lure them he just was telling them what was happening there which I saw firsthand. Hope you’re going to be okay.
@@forthwrite9304 Sorry my first post was a little bit more of a knee-jerk reaction. I agree with your concerns about the drugs at the time. There was also too much “free love”. The song itself is just kind of a sweet melody with sweet lyrics about if you come to San Francisco, wear some flowers in your hair, you’ll meet some gentle people there and there will be a love-in there. The drugs and too much free love were not good, I agree. I just have a different stance to the lyricist and spirit of the song. Much of the summer of love and many of the things that happened in the 60s I found very distressing yet I know people who really loved it. Take good care, and sorry if my first post was offending.
@@forthwrite9304 Charles Manson was in LA, and that song didn't lure anyone, kids were going to SF in great numbers already when the song came out. I don't think you were really there.
Chynna, thank you for sharing about your family. I'm so happy you found the Lord, and from what I understand, your dad accepted Christ before he died. I will never forget the story you told of how a former backup singer for the Mamas and Papas witnessed to him when he was on his death bed. I tell people that story because I think it is awesome.
@@ChynnaPhillipsBaldwinMy bro-in-law died of colon cancer aged 30, many years ago and I rang my sister (Australia to NZ) to offer condolences... we spoke for about half an hour and then she said "and by the way, he accepted the Lord just the day before he died..." at which I burst into tears...I had been praying for him for years for healing and salvation...... Chynna darling I love your channel and I love your enthusiasm for Jesus...could you please PLEASE watch this video.... and do with it whatever the Lord leads you to do? I cringe when you go into your "Holy Spirit activate!" routine.... it reminds me of rude people speaking to their servants...you're speaking to a member of the Godhead...... dear sister, I do not mean any offense to you... so please do not be offended. Lots of love, Marylin th-cam.com/video/TIKbaOYUD80/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=MarioMurillo
I’m so happy I discovered your channel 🤗 This is my absolute favorite TH-cam channel. 🥰. I love hearing about your life. Thank you for sharing with us. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
I am thankful to have found your channel and am thankful for you. My daughter who is a non believer, recently saw something with Holy Spirit Activate on it. I think it planted a seed in her. Pray for her belief growing! Thank you Chynna!
I asked my dad to walk me down the aisle when I got married at 21 and I could hear him crying on the phone . It ended years of estrangement and I am the only one of his 5 girls because my other sisters were estranged too . We all became extremely close with him as we matured and forgave . He died a Christian too 🙏💝 Thank you Chynna for sharing about your family .It's normal to wonder what it would be like if our parents had stayed together in a healthy relationship . I have so much respect for the person you've become with all the things you've gone through . Sending love and hugs from Canada and Happy Thanksgiving to all the Bible Babes in the US and wherever you are celebrating 🦃🙏🙏💝💝💝🇨🇦
RUBY, Happy (belated) Thanksgiving wishes to you ! Yours is in October, l hear. 🦃 Do you guys eat turkey ? I luv it !! Blessings for your Christmas preparations. 🥧 💞 From California ! 🕊
@@marycook1644 Hi Mary , yes we have our Thanksgiving the first weekend in October . We have turkey and everyone gets together for a big meal . There's a lot of Fall Fairs going on that are fun to go to . I'm in the Niagara Region of Southern Ontario . Do you celebrate with turkey as well ? 💕🇨🇦
Thank you for sharing, Chynna. I'm sure it is very hard to do, but keep in mind how many people you are helping............like me......and for that, I thank you. ❤️❤️
Chynna, this was so interesting. Yes, family shapes us in ways we seldom realize. I love that you have framed many of the photos of your early years with your mom, dad, and all your siblings. You have such a charismatic spirit.❤️
Please keep me in your prayers this holiday season. Both of my parents have passed which is still difficult for me. Sometimes I lack faith, afraid that I won't see them again. So...I guess my prayer request would be to help gain a stronger trust in God and more appreciation for what I do have. Thank you.
My dad was gay, talk about a complicated relationship. He left my mom for a man, when I was quite young. I still grieve for the relationship I always wanted and never had with him.
Chyna's dad had an incestuous relationship with her sister that started when he raped her when she was very drugged out. To me, I have to say... that's not a good person.
Thank you for sharing those incredible pictures and memories Chynna. The overwhelming sense of the Holy Spirit that I feel around you seems magnified when you open up with such honesty and as always vulnerability. Your trust and love for Christ shines through every single time and that energy transports itself to me when I watch you post these types of personal stories. Your faith and blessings help me be a better Christian and for that I am very grateful 😊 Mahalo Chynna and sending prayers to you and ohana 🙏🏽😊
The love you show all your family members, to me, really shows your love of Jesus. It's too easy to hate family; and fame probably makes it easier. What you have done is monumental. I have so much respect and admiration for you bc of this.
Chynna is so real and down to earth and we all love her so much. We feel like she's a part of our family now. The body of Christ is like that; we all are bonded through Christ Jesus and that is a very strong bond. I love the way she shares her memories and childhood even though it was painful. I am sorry Billy won't be there with you for Thanksgiving. Is he working on a TV show, film? Also, how are the siblings related through which parent? How many are Michelle's children and how many are John's? Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family..May the love of Christ bring you peace and comfort.
Hello Chy, thanks for sharing your thoughts of family and memories in this episode. This is a very melancholy time of year and part of all of us walking each other home is acknowledging this emotion. When you show us pictures of your family members and give the back story or thoughts about the time in which the picture was taken it provides texture to them. Stay healthy, peace and fear not.
Thank you for sharing these things. I was just thinking about my parents being gone and I will be spending the holidays alone with my dog. Not sure why this year seems so hard but it does. Every person who has anyone to share a holiday with, never take that for granted. I enjoy watching your videos and that's why I am here, but you also encourage me as I have a lot of challenging days now with illness that limits me. Thanks Chynna, Peace of Christ.
Chynna, thank you for sharing the photos of your beautiful and immensely talented family. This time of year always brings about a time of reflection, remembrance and thankfulness for God's blessings. Prayers for happy holidays!
Your mother Michelle is so beautiful. From young years till now she's always been a stunningly pretty woman. Mother like daughter. Wilson Phillips deserved Grammys. You guys still are my favorite female group. Next to you one of my favorites. Chynna your voice is so strong in that song.
So very thankful for you, Chynna, and Cal Preach which I found because I loved your parents. When I was little I would fall asleep to the sounds of The Mamas and the Papas wafting through the speaker of my transistor radio. "I Saw Her Again" and "Twelve Thirty" were faves. Your photos are so precious. Much love to you and wishing you a blessed Thanksgiving❤🙏
Love you so much, Chynna. You make my heart smile and all prayers for this upcoming thanksgiving are very much appreciated. ☮️&❤️ to your entire family!
I especially love the pictures of you and your mother. My mom died in 1969 at age 24 of cancer. I was 21 months old at the time. You’re so very blessed to still have your mom. Just came across your channel and will subscribe. Have a very Merry Christmas. 🎄
Thank you, Chynna, for sharing your family with us today. There’s is nothing more precious than the love and blessings a family gives. Have a beautiful Thanksgiving! Love to Billy in Rome - Felice Ringraziamento. God bless ☮️❤️🌈🙏🏻
My wish for you is that you could have lived just one day of my childhood❤️ just a glimpse of what it was like- As hard as I tried, I could not recreate what my parents created for me and my siblings. I mean, Bob and I did a pretty good job… but it just wasn’t the same. My sister and I know people don’t get it when we reminisce about home. We were not rich financially, but we always had a beautiful safe home, cute clothes, magical Christmases, the best family vacations piled in our wood paneled station wagon. My mom and dad we’re head over heels in love, and they loved us. The four of us kids were best friends. Our mom was such a great cook, and we loved dinner time around our round table laughing together and reciting ‘remember when’ memories. We had our own lingo and looking back it’s so silly! I wish you could have one day in my shoes! I always came home to mom and dad. My heart was saddened that you never experienced that! Xoxo Well- you Chynna- have created THAT for your kids!!! What a blessing for you and them! Pizza Crust! Love you!
Thank you darling Chynna for walking us home. You are such a sharing, caring and selfless human. You make me laugh and remind me to appreciate the perfect and not so perfect realities of life. I am a work in progress and welcome you in my life. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. You deserve the best. Thank you for your strength and your unique and awesome loveliness. Xxx
Families can be very complicated but when Jesus is your rock, He's the glue that keeps you all together! I wish all my family members knew this truth as well, but we keep praying and having those wonderful dreams! Your channel means a lot to me Chynna. Finding your channel was one of my delights in 2021!
Chyna your strength is inspirational with regard to your past not dictating your present and future in a negative way. I had someone share a humorous comment recently "I'm not gonna be happy until my parents start treating me better when I was a child" which speaks to the futility of hanging onto stuff. Accepting the things you cannot change and the wisdom to know the difference is something you must be gifted with. You shared some excellent advice I thought on your last video. "Pray instead of worry". I forget this as well when caught up in life. So simple but such solid advice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing some intimate background about your family. I am a HUGE Mamas & the Popas fan...got em all on vinyl and get so much joy from their music and yours..and now you on this channel. You are lovely and make me smile.
I am so happy to say that your mom is a great friend of mine, and you are right, I love her. I remember running into you and Mitch at the airport. We were both on our ways to NY. Me to see my daughter and her family, you to get your wedding dress fitting with Vera Wang. I adore Austin and Aaron. I was crazy about Marika, and Bijou is a hoot. I miss all of them so much.
there I was on youtube and you popped up...I have to say I knew somewhat of you, not a lot but I was so moved by what you were saying and your honesty. I am now playing catch up listing to all of your back videos. I am at a place of needing some inspiration right now after care giving for both my mom and mom in law. Losing my mom last year was the worst thing ever but you videos helped me so very much in dealing with my loss. thank you for your faithfulness in your walk with the Lord. God is using you to touch many people and I am thankful that God has lead me to you ...God Bless you now and always
People are into you. They are listening. I stumbled on to this I think from watching a bunch of music videos. I hate 97% of the You Tube thing..... but you have an abundance of super positive energy combined with your really intense reflections. Also I am very skeptical and closed to any talk about religion or God, however I can handle it if I feel it is truly genuine. Good stuff A+. I hope you have a great Holiday time you deserve it.
I just love hearing your stories that you tell about growing up. I know some of them are heart wrenching but I am so grateful that you are willing to share! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing the memories and great love you have for all of your family Chynna! You show true forgiveness in your heart that glorifies our Lord & Saviour Jesus. God bless you!
Chynna, once again, I sincerely thank you for sharing your life adventures!! I know your struggles and your blessings have helped to shape the amazing person you are today!! And what you have become is so dang good-hearted and loving! Using the platform that the Lord has provided to you, for his glory, is just one of the most awesome services you could ever bless your fellow children of God with! He is
Hi Chynna! Loved seeing your beautiful family photos! Great memories! Please give your mum my love! I love hearing the mamas and papas! The songs are timeless and bring me such great memories! Sending love peace and light ❤️❤️☮️☮️🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🦘🦘🦘
Thank you, Chynna, for sharing your family with us today. There is nothing more precious than the blessings of family. Have a beautiful Thanksgiving! God bless.
I think you are an amazing creation of Christ. It is because of what we did not have yesterday that makes us stronger today. Iron sharpens iron. You are a joy.
We can’t look at the past… don’t let it hinder you and allow yourself to be stuck in those feelings. It’s a beautiful picture and shows the love you both had for each other!!
Lot's of love Chy. My family is a big one too. I'm one of 21 grandchildren. I pray for my mother and father everyday even though they're not together. Family is such a blessing, I look forward to our Christmas get togethers. ❤
Chynna your videos have changed my life in such a positive way. Your raw honesty and willingness to be vulnerable is astonishing and inspirational. I love how respectful you are to your family and their legacy, but also how true you are. Id love to see another video of mama Michelle whenever you both have the time! Thank you for these videos, they are an eternal source of comfort for me ❤
Thank you Chynna . For the last two nights I’ve been watching your channel and you haved touched my heart. I am a Christian and I’ve been very down lately.The Holy Spirit has touched me listening to you and Billy
Dear Chynna. I really enjoyed your video today. It was so good to see you going into the weekend. You have been such a blessing to me this past year. There were many mornings that I was barely hanging on to any joy and struggling with so much fear. I would watch a video and you seemed to say the perfect words to calm my mind. You shared so much of yourself and I could relate to you so much. I thank God for your beautiful honest messages. May God continue to bless you and your family and keep you safe and well 💕😊💕
I enjoyed this video very much! I love the stories and photos of your family and I learn a lot about you and your upbringing..thank you so much for sharing Chynna!❤
I feel Jesus has you on this channel to teach lessons of mercy and kindness. We need more of that. Rules, yes are important, but they don’t usurp Gods love and mercy.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures and stories of your family. My dad who is 87 loves the song San Francisco. We all loved the Mamas and Papas and of course Wilson Phillips! So happy I discovered your page. Blessings to you and your family. Praying for peace and good health during this holiday season.
First of all: LOVE your jacket! Secondly: It felt like we were sitting right there in the room with you and listening to you talk about your family. Thank you for sharing those thoughts and feelings about everyone. Lastly: Oh my, we all have complicated families don't we? We just need to keep on loving and praying! Happy Thanksgiving sweet one!
This was a video of Thanksgiving for a family .. something we all need to do is be thankful for the family God gave us ..loves this ..happy Thanksgiving everyone ❤️🙏
I can totally relate. I have four sisters but I am the only child of my mum and dad. I love all of my complex and complicated family. I often wonder how different I would of been if my mum and dad had stayed together. I definitely feel like the child from the other marriage. I feel like I don’t fit. Continue to try to find my self and I’m not even young. I’m so grateful for my mum who raised me. Even though there were troubles. We learn so much as we get older and realise we all have problems and behind closed doors we all have issues. Thanks for sharing you story.. I was walking with my husband today and found myself saying Jesus is my rock and that’s how I role. Love it. I continue to reach out to my faith, Ive been crap at that. So much room to be better. At my faith. Anyway thanks for sharing.
Absolutely it’s the time of year. Always thinking them . I get the same. With my father . A heavy drinker . It’s ashamed he missed a lot with his kids . My beautiful sisters and brother all heroes in my eyes .

Would you be willing to listen to her songs?
Prayer for healing, a miracle for my health.
Prayers for healing please 🙏🏻 I believe it and receive your prayers. Thank you 🙏🏻

That short haircut was so cute on you, I haven’t seen anyone else that wore it as well except Dorthy Hamil.
Prayers for you and your family. God is our defender. We just show the love of Christ and we can’t change anyone but ourselves.🙏

Much of the summer of love and many of the things that happened in the 60s I found very distressing yet I know people who really loved it. Take good care, and sorry if my first post was offending.
@@forthwrite9304 Thanks for writing back.
@@forthwrite9304 Charles Manson was in LA, and that song didn't lure anyone, kids were going to SF in great numbers already when the song came out. I don't think you were really there.
Dang it, I used to like that song. Now I can’t listen to it anymore.
I love how you share with us and really loved your beautiful photos. Peace of Christ be with you Chynna & family! 🙏🏻❤️
Your mom has said many times that singing with Cass gave her confidence, it was like working with a VERY secure net under you.
I don’t think Michelle needed that. Her voice alone is beautiful. Some great music they made.
Chynna, thank you for sharing about your family. I'm so happy you found the Lord, and from what I understand, your dad accepted Christ before he died. I will never forget the story you told of how a former backup singer for the Mamas and Papas witnessed to him when he was on his death bed. I tell people that story because I think it is awesome.
Wow...that is amazing..is it not incredible..how God Works!!!
@@silasmonk2458 Yes, I was so blown away by the story when Chynna shared it on a past video. I once shared it in a Bible Study group.
Yes!!!! My father asked Jesus into his heart before he passed. ‼️‼️‼️‼️💙💙💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@ChynnaPhillipsBaldwin That's so nice to know Chynna! I'm so glad for you. What a Grace and a Blessing.
@@ChynnaPhillipsBaldwinMy bro-in-law died of colon cancer aged 30, many years ago and I rang my sister (Australia to NZ) to offer condolences... we spoke for about half an hour and then she said "and by the way, he accepted the Lord just the day before he died..." at which I burst into tears...I had been praying for him for years for healing and salvation......
Chynna darling I love your channel and I love your enthusiasm for Jesus...could you please PLEASE watch this video.... and do with it whatever the Lord leads you to do? I cringe when you go into your "Holy Spirit activate!" routine.... it reminds me of rude people speaking to their servants...you're speaking to a member of the Godhead...... dear sister, I do not mean any offense to you... so please do not be offended. Lots of love, Marylin

Thank you for sharing your lovely photos & memories with us!! Love you! 🥰🥰🥰🙏
I’m so happy I discovered your channel 🤗 This is my absolute favorite TH-cam channel. 🥰. I love hearing about your life. Thank you for sharing with us. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
I am thankful to have found your channel and am thankful for you. My daughter who is a non believer, recently saw something with Holy Spirit Activate on it. I think it planted a seed in her. Pray for her belief growing! Thank you Chynna!
I could feel your peace as you spoke about your family. The strength you continue to share...the grace. Bless you.... ❤️
I asked my dad to walk me down the aisle when I got married at 21 and I could hear him crying on the phone . It ended years of estrangement and I am the only one of his 5 girls because my other sisters were estranged too . We all became extremely close with him as we matured and forgave . He died a Christian too 🙏💝
Thank you Chynna for sharing about your family .It's normal to wonder what it would be like if our parents had stayed together in a healthy relationship . I have so much respect for the person you've become with all the things you've gone through . Sending love and hugs from Canada and Happy Thanksgiving to all the Bible Babes in the US and wherever you are celebrating 🦃🙏🙏💝💝💝🇨🇦
RUBY, Happy (belated) Thanksgiving wishes to you ! Yours is in October, l hear. 🦃 Do you guys eat turkey ? I luv it !! Blessings for your Christmas preparations. 🥧 💞 From California ! 🕊
@@marycook1644 Hi Mary , yes we have our Thanksgiving the first weekend in October . We have turkey and everyone gets together for a big meal . There's a lot of Fall Fairs going on that are fun to go to . I'm in the Niagara Region of Southern Ontario . Do you celebrate with turkey as well ? 💕🇨🇦
@@rubycorman469 Oh , definitely !! Most families do. 🦋
Thank you for sharing, Chynna. I'm sure it is very hard to do, but keep in mind how many people you are helping............like me......and for that, I thank you. ❤️❤️
Chynna, this was so interesting. Yes, family shapes us in ways we seldom realize. I love that you have framed many of the photos of your early years with your mom, dad, and all your siblings. You have such a charismatic spirit.❤️
Please keep me in your prayers this holiday season. Both of my parents have passed which is still difficult for me. Sometimes I lack faith, afraid that I won't see them again. So...I guess my prayer request would be to help gain a stronger trust in God and more appreciation for what I do have. Thank you.
My dad was gay, talk about a complicated relationship. He left my mom for a man, when I was quite young. I still grieve for the relationship I always wanted and never had with him.
Completely understand, I lived that as well...and my dad passed away 10 years ago.
Chyna's dad had an incestuous relationship with her sister that started when he raped her when she was very drugged out. To me, I have to say... that's not a good person.
Families are temper-mental, half temper, half mental🤣😂 love that one Chynna!!
Thank you for sharing those incredible pictures and memories Chynna. The overwhelming sense of the Holy Spirit that I feel around you seems magnified when you open up with such honesty and as always vulnerability. Your trust and love for Christ shines through every single time and that energy transports itself to me when I watch you post these types of personal stories. Your faith and blessings help me be a better Christian and for that I am very grateful 😊
Mahalo Chynna and sending prayers to you and ohana 🙏🏽😊
The love you show all your family members, to me, really shows your love of Jesus. It's too easy to hate family; and fame probably makes it easier. What you have done is monumental. I have so much respect and admiration for you bc of this.
Chynna is so real and down to earth and we all love her so much. We feel like she's a part of our family now. The body of Christ is like that; we all are bonded through Christ Jesus and that is a very strong bond. I love the way she shares her memories and childhood even though it was painful. I am sorry Billy won't be there with you for Thanksgiving. Is he working on a TV show, film? Also, how are the siblings related through which parent? How many are Michelle's children and how many are John's? Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family..May the love of Christ bring you peace and comfort.
Hello Chy, thanks for sharing your thoughts of family and memories in this episode. This is a very melancholy time of year and part of all of us walking each other home is acknowledging this emotion. When you show us pictures of your family members and give the back story or thoughts about the time in which the picture was taken it provides texture to them. Stay healthy, peace and fear not.
Thank you for sharing these things. I was just thinking about my parents being gone and I will be spending the holidays alone with my dog. Not sure why this year seems so hard but it does. Every person who has anyone to share a holiday with, never take that for granted. I enjoy watching your videos and that's why I am here, but you also encourage me as I have a lot of challenging days now with illness that limits me. Thanks Chynna, Peace of Christ.
Chynna, thank you for sharing the photos of your beautiful and immensely talented family. This time of year always brings about a time of reflection, remembrance and thankfulness for God's blessings. Prayers for happy holidays!
Your mother Michelle is so beautiful. From young years till now she's always been a stunningly pretty woman. Mother like daughter. Wilson Phillips deserved Grammys. You guys still are my favorite female group. Next to you one of my favorites. Chynna your voice is so strong in that song.
Beauty is only skin deep.
You should care more about character than physical beauty.
I love that you’ve had one marriage. ❤️
This was just beautiful Chynna! Thanks for sharing your cherished family photos with us!
Chynna, you're videos just warm my heart. This one about family really resonates with me. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful life with us ! That is so sweet! You are so real ! In Him . It’s so awesome
So very thankful for you, Chynna, and Cal Preach which I found because I loved your parents. When I was little I would fall asleep to the sounds of The Mamas and the Papas wafting through the speaker of my transistor radio. "I Saw Her Again" and "Twelve Thirty" were faves. Your photos are so precious. Much love to you and wishing you a blessed Thanksgiving❤🙏
Your love for each member of your family is just beautiful to hear. Thanks for sharing about your life. Take care..
Thx&see ya😁
Love you so much, Chynna. You make my heart smile and all prayers for this upcoming thanksgiving are very much appreciated. ☮️&❤️ to your entire family!
I especially love the pictures of you and your mother. My mom died in 1969 at age 24 of cancer. I was 21 months old at the time. You’re so very blessed to still have your mom. Just came across your channel and will subscribe. Have a very Merry Christmas. 🎄
Thank you, Chynna, for sharing your family with us today. There’s is nothing more precious than the love and blessings a family gives. Have a beautiful Thanksgiving! Love to Billy in Rome - Felice Ringraziamento. God bless ☮️❤️🌈🙏🏻
Thank you Chynna for presenting Christ's love to us in such a personal and vulnerable way. God Bless You.
My wish for you is that you could have lived just one day of my childhood❤️ just a glimpse of what it was like-
As hard as I tried, I could not recreate what my parents created for me and my siblings. I mean, Bob and I did a pretty good job… but it just wasn’t the same. My sister and I know people don’t get it when we reminisce about home. We were not rich financially, but we always had a beautiful safe home, cute clothes, magical Christmases, the best family vacations piled in our wood paneled station wagon. My mom and dad we’re head over heels in love, and they loved us. The four of us kids were best friends. Our mom was such a great cook, and we loved dinner time around our round table laughing together and reciting ‘remember when’ memories.
We had our own lingo and looking back it’s so silly!
I wish you could have one day in my shoes!
I always came home to mom and dad. My heart was saddened that you never experienced that! Xoxo
Well- you Chynna- have created THAT for your kids!!! What a blessing for you and them! Pizza Crust! Love you!
This was so touching. Thank you for sharing. God bless you and your family. Enjoy the coming holidays.
Thank you darling Chynna for walking us home. You are such a sharing, caring and selfless human. You make me laugh and remind me to appreciate the perfect and not so perfect realities of life. I am a work in progress and welcome you in my life. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. You deserve the best. Thank you for your strength and your unique and awesome loveliness. Xxx
Aww… Chynna thank you for sharing your pictures and memories with us! We love you so much! 🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕
I love hearing the family stories- thanks Chynna and Happy Thanksgiving 🙏🏻🦃
I loved this video! Who doesn't like to go thru old pictures, and talk about the good times of the past! Thank you
Love hearing your family stories and seeing family pics! Thank you Chynna for your channel! ❤🎚
This video is so sweet and touching. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your lovely family. ❤️
Chyna I have a complicated family I have 17 yrs clean and of course the family is still lives in their own world .
I LOVE it!! Families are half temp half mental.. So's mine!!
I'm so thankful I found your channel this year, actually I think it was a divine appt 💜✝️
Have a blessed Thanksgiving 💝🐶😻
You have some beautiful pics of your family! I love my family pics as well! God bless ya sister!!!
That was very touching and heartwarming, Chynna❣️🌟
Families can be very complicated but when Jesus is your rock, He's the glue that keeps you all together! I wish all my family members knew this truth as well, but we keep praying and having those wonderful dreams! Your channel means a lot to me Chynna. Finding your channel was one of my delights in 2021!
Chyna your strength is inspirational with regard to your past not dictating your present and future in a negative way. I had someone share a humorous comment recently "I'm not gonna be happy until my parents start treating me better when I was a child" which speaks to the futility of hanging onto stuff. Accepting the things you cannot change and the wisdom to know the difference is something you must be gifted with. You shared some excellent advice I thought on your last video. "Pray instead of worry". I forget this as well when caught up in life. So simple but such solid advice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing some intimate background about your family. I am a HUGE Mamas & the Popas fan...got em all on vinyl and get so much joy from their music and yours..and now you on this channel. You are lovely and make me smile.
I am so happy to say that your mom is a great friend of mine, and you are right, I love her. I remember running into you and Mitch at the airport. We were both on our ways to NY. Me to see my daughter and her family, you to get your wedding dress fitting with Vera Wang. I adore Austin and Aaron. I was crazy about Marika, and Bijou is a hoot. I miss all of them so much.
there I was on youtube and you popped up...I have to say I knew somewhat of you, not a lot but I was so moved by what you were saying and your honesty. I am now playing catch up listing to all of your back videos. I am at a place of needing some inspiration right now after care giving for both my mom and mom in law. Losing my mom last year was the worst thing ever but you videos helped me so very much in dealing with my loss. thank you for your faithfulness in your walk with the Lord. God is using you to touch many people and I am thankful that God has lead me to you ...God Bless you now and always
Thanks Debbie. I’m so grateful to God that you feel connected somehow here. Stay blessed and stay close 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
People are into you. They are listening. I stumbled on to this I think from watching a bunch of music videos. I hate 97% of the You Tube thing..... but you have an abundance of super positive energy combined with your really intense reflections. Also I am very skeptical and closed to any talk about religion or God, however I can handle it if I feel it is truly genuine. Good stuff A+. I hope you have a great Holiday time you deserve it.
WOW. What a sincere & thoughtful compliment & comment!!! Really appreciate you. ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
Love Love Love this video! It has helped with my own familial trauma. God bless you, your family, and may any mistakes be used as lessons.
I just love hearing your stories that you tell about growing up. I know some of them are heart wrenching but I am so grateful that you are willing to share! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing the memories and great love you have for all of your family Chynna! You show true forgiveness in your heart that glorifies our Lord & Saviour Jesus. God bless you!
Chynna, once again, I sincerely thank you for sharing your life adventures!! I know your struggles and your blessings have helped to shape the amazing person you are today!! And what you have become is so dang good-hearted and loving! Using the platform that the Lord has provided to you, for his glory, is just one of the most awesome services you could ever bless your fellow children of God with! He is
Thank you sweet Tudie. Really means a lot to me 🌸🙌🏻🌸😞👏🏻😞👏🏻❤️
Hi Chynna! Loved seeing your beautiful family photos! Great memories! Please give your mum my love! I love hearing the mamas and papas! The songs are timeless and bring me such great memories! Sending love peace and light ❤️❤️☮️☮️🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🦘🦘🦘
Thank you, Chynna, for sharing your family with us today. There is nothing more precious than the blessings of family. Have a beautiful Thanksgiving! God bless.
I hope you know just how special you are. God has put you 🙏 in this space to heal others.
Chynna, I would give a year off my life to spend a day with my departed parents again. Look what you and Billy have accomplished in your lives.
I think you are an amazing creation of Christ. It is because of what we did not have yesterday that makes us stronger today. Iron sharpens iron. You are a joy.
We can’t look at the past… don’t let it hinder you and allow yourself to be stuck in those feelings. It’s a beautiful picture and shows the love you both had for each other!!
“Twelve thirty” is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Magically written
Lot's of love Chy. My family is a big one too. I'm one of 21 grandchildren. I pray for my mother and father everyday even though they're not together. Family is such a blessing, I look forward to our Christmas get togethers. ❤
Chynna your videos have changed my life in such a positive way. Your raw honesty and willingness to be vulnerable is astonishing and inspirational. I love how respectful you are to your family and their legacy, but also how true you are. Id love to see another video of mama Michelle whenever you both have the time! Thank you for these videos, they are an eternal source of comfort for me ❤
I was brought up with the Mamas and the Papas! I just celebrated my 30th wedding anniversary!! God id good. Love you, dear Chyna. 💜🙏💜
Thank you Chynna . For the last two nights I’ve been watching your channel and you haved touched my heart. I am a Christian and I’ve been very down lately.The Holy Spirit has touched me listening to you and Billy
PRAISE JESUS JENNIFER!
😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
Dear Chynna. I really enjoyed your video today. It was so good to see you going into the weekend. You have been such a blessing to me this past year. There were many mornings that I was barely hanging on to any joy and struggling with so much fear. I would watch a video and you seemed to say the perfect words to calm my mind. You shared so much of yourself and I could relate to you so much. I thank God for your beautiful honest messages. May God continue to bless you and your family and keep you safe and well 💕😊💕
I enjoyed this video very much! I love the stories and photos of your family and I learn a lot about you and your upbringing..thank you so much for sharing Chynna!❤
I feel Jesus has you on this channel to teach lessons of mercy and kindness. We need more of that.
Rules, yes are important, but they don’t usurp Gods love and mercy.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures and stories of your family. My dad who is 87 loves the song San Francisco. We all loved the Mamas and Papas and of course Wilson Phillips! So happy I discovered your page. Blessings to you and your family. Praying for peace and good health during this holiday season.
You are a beautiful person. I love you bringing the peace of Christ into your videos 🙏
What a beautiful video Chynna, thanks for sharing with us.❤️
First of all: LOVE your jacket! Secondly: It felt like we were sitting right there in the room with you and listening to you talk about your family. Thank you for sharing those thoughts and feelings about everyone. Lastly: Oh my, we all have complicated families don't we? We just need to keep on loving and praying! Happy Thanksgiving sweet one!
Thank you Chynna, this is truly a very beautiful video.
Jesus is my rock too !!
God bless you and Billy. 😊
Happy Thanksgiving !!
Your song “Goodbye Carmen” is a beautiful song with parts of it in Spanish. Thanks to Rosa for teaching you Spanish! 😃❤️
I so appreciate your honesty and kind spirit. It makes me want to improve myself, my relationships, my attitude and my lifestyle. Thank you!
This was a video of Thanksgiving for a family .. something we all need to do is be thankful for the family God gave us ..loves this ..happy Thanksgiving everyone ❤️🙏
I can totally relate. I have four sisters but I am the only child of my mum and dad. I love all of my complex and complicated family. I often wonder how different I would of been if my mum and dad had stayed together. I definitely feel like the child from the other marriage. I feel like I don’t fit. Continue to try to find my self and I’m not even young. I’m so grateful for my mum who raised me. Even though there were troubles. We learn so much as we get older and realise we all have problems and behind closed doors we all have issues. Thanks for sharing you story..
I was walking with my husband today and found myself saying Jesus is my rock and that’s how I role. Love it.
I continue to reach out to my faith, Ive been crap at that. So much room to be better. At my faith.
Anyway thanks for sharing.
Love you sweetheart! May we all find the peace and comfort of Christ this season and always!
That was an interesting and fun video. Thank you for sharing...xoxo Happy Thanksgiving everybody! God Bless and "Peace of Christ."
This was a especially soothing, loving session Chynna, thank you for sharing photo’s and story’s. Xx
Thank you Chyna for being you! Love when people reflect on their life and then have the courage to share. ✝️ Peace of Christ 🙏 for you and all.
I absolutely love your stories and always loved your mom growing up she is so gorgeous, love and prayers to you 💖
Absolutely it’s the time of year. Always thinking them . I get the same. With my father . A heavy drinker . It’s ashamed he missed a lot with his kids . My beautiful sisters and brother all heroes in my eyes .
