    Granger please never apologize for not answering an email cause every thing has its own time. Keep up the good advice and tough love. Live podcast would be cool

    It makes it easier to tithe and give offerings above that when you realize that everything we have is from God.

    I agree with you when you said we are all selfish in some way. We don't like that admit it, but you are correct. We are all that way. Some more than others, but still, we all have it in us. So thank you for saying that.

    Great response to Patricia. I'll admit that I would probably prefer that the format was a little more structured so there could be more variety in the questions, but it ain't my show. Seems there are A LOT of relationship questions from young people each week with A LOT of the same basic answers (the questions that followed Patricia's were perfect examples). However, I understand it's Granger's show, and Granger gets to do the show the way that works for him. I then have to decide if I want to watch/listen to a show like that. Yes, Granger, you did get worked up today, but I think your getting worked up was warranted. If someone tells you no, let them go.

    Thank you Granger for another great podcast. Don’t ever apologize for tough love, you promise to give us your real world advice as if we were friends riding down the road together in your truck. I feel that’s exactly what we got this week and every week so much appreciated 😊. Also, I can’t wait for August 1st! I have your book pre-ordered on Amazon and on Audible so I’m double covered. Can’t wait to hear it and read it. I will definitely give a review on both platforms in hopes of spreading your message. So excited!! ❤

    Granger, you’ve given me hard love before.
    In today’s podcast you helped me realize how self-loving I have been throughout my life.
    Your explanation of how suicide is self-loving (or I would say self-centered) was eye opening. Thank you for sharing tough love.

    Granger, I'm so sorry my email came across the way it did . I've been depressed about my children and was looking forward to your point of view because you're their age. I have done all i know to do.
    Thank you for your honest and knowledgeable answers to all the questions you read on air.
    I know you have a lot going on. It means so much to us that you take the time. 🤗🙏🏼

      I understand being depressed about your children.
      Don’t worry about how it “came across”. When we’re upset it’s hard to understand how something may “sound” to someone else.
      Prayers for reconciliation with your children. Remember it will be in God’s time or in His way. Sometimes all we can do is let them know we are open and willing for a relationship. Then we can pray for them.

      I do know that in the last days the enemy shows up even stronger to turn our families against us, and so on. I'm just struggling to give it to God and take my hands off. I have repented of known and unknown sins. I should feel relief in that.

      @@1029tbarton not sure, we are “estranged” in that she has little to do with me. But we don’t argue. I just keep texting to let her know I’m thinking of her, love her and miss her. And I pray, God knows that I don’t even know what to pray for or about. I just tell Him “ I pray for her”.
      I was not a Christian wife or mother. I was like Granger described, “self-loving”. I’ve always put myself first. I can only imagine how that negatively impacted her. Maybe one day she’ll share with me and God will help me to listen to the truth.

  • @bowed305
    @bowed305 ปีที่แล้ว

    Okay, something I strongly disagree with from this episode. I do not think that suicide is the pinnacle of self-love or that it's selfish. I used to think like this until I learned more about it. From what I understand of it, individuals who die from suicide have gone to such a dark place that they truly believe there can never be any form of light again. Their mind doesn't process information rationally. In fact, the reason why most of us can't really understand why or how a person could end their own life is because we are working with a rational mind. I honestly hope that I never fully understand what could lead a person to suicide because that means my mind is still processing things properly.

    • @2byoung
      @2byoung ปีที่แล้ว

      David, I am VERY surprised that Granger’s comments hit me the opposite way today.
      I have been to the dark place and felt exactly as he said. The relief of my own pain was more important to me than the feelings of those that I supposedly loved. That was not being a Christian. I am so grateful for God’s interventions. God has given me moments and hours of joy. I must stick around to see what else He has planned.
      (Love seeing your comments every week 😊)

      @@2byoung Thank you for your kind comment. A long time ago Granger said on one of his videos that the way to help a channel was to be subscribed to the channel, like the video, and leave a comment. It has something to do with the algorithm stuff. I like this family so much that I want to do everything I can to support and promote them.
      I'm wondering about something. When a person gets to a dark place like that, is it that their thoughts and feelings are more important to them than those of their loved ones, or are their thoughts and feelings the only ones that they can be aware of at the time given their mental state? They are the only ones their mental state will allow them to hear. A person who decides to end their own life definitely isn't thinking correctly about how other people feel about them because they wouldn't do it if they did. Some people who take their lives truly believe they are a burden to other people, and in that way, they feel that ending their life will make the lives of their loved ones better. For them, they are honestly trying to be unselfish, but their mental wiring is flawed. I guess what I'm saying is that, to me, this issues seems to be much more complicated than we sometimes make it out to be, and that's what I really objected to. I think we want it to be something easy like selfishness because we find it so abhorrent, but I think it's much more complicated.

    I enjoy listening to the podcast. This week, I found the advice to Sequoia a little harsh. We don’t know what happened with his baby‘s mother. It could’ve been her choice for them not to be together, and for some reason other than him wanting to be a singer. I also think that it’s great that Granger has made the decision to pursue ministry because that is what he thinks God is calling him to do. I don’t necessarily think that every singer needs to make that decision. I believe God causes some strong Christians to stay in the secular entertainment business to be a light. I get what he was saying, and it’s definitely something Sequoyah should consider, but not necessarily accept as the final word on his situation. I was also really concerned with this statement: “ you’ve been praying and seeking for guidance, here I am.” Granger offers advice, and many times it’s good advice, but we need to be really careful about saying that we are the guidance that someone has prayed for.

      I think Granger is right to say what he did. He has lived it for 24 years. He wasn’t saying, “here I am” as if he is God, but “here I am to offer advise, because I know of this”. As he has said many times friends sitting around the campfire, a good friend tells it like it is.

    Granger when you talk about suicide does the person go to heaven or he'll for killing themselves. God is the beginning and end he knows when your born and knows when your time comes to die but if you commit suicide you determine the end. So does this mean you go to hell
