    Quote from Oliver Anthony..... "People in the music industry give me blank stares when I brush off 8 million dollar offers. I don't want 6 tour buses, 15 tractor trailers and a jet. I don't want to play stadium shows, I don't want to be in the spotlight. I wrote the music I wrote because I was suffering..." And that's why his music is great. God bless you brother🙏

      He's not had those offers. He's too wishy washy for Nashville to even look at. Now he's doing the next best thing. *Non-profit*.... 😂🤦 Traveling ministry = more money than what Nashville was going to give him, and he gets to beat the government by avoiding taxes.

    Back when you came on the scene, my wife, who had been fighting cancer for 5 years, had to have emergency surgery on her spine. Brother, YOU carried us through that time. Finally, one of us stood up and folks across the world took notice. You gave us fire to keep fighting. We started playing everything you had on the tube, in the hospital room and it lifted all 4 of us to new heights. She passed in January, but we can't thank you enough for providing the fight songs of the soundtrack to one of most difficult times of our lives. We too are descendants of coal field people, Appalachia. In 2014 we left the big town and headed back to the hills to be self sufficient as well. Keep on keeping' on, as you will be in our prayers brother. And keep going to the woods, that's where the real creator reveals all.

      God bless u. I watched my mom slowly die of breast cancer for 3 years. And this year watched my dad die of dementia. Not to mention my brother suffering a stroke a week b4 my dad went in hospital and my brother was pretty much on life support day before my dad went in hospital. Same one as my brother and neither one of them knew the other was there. Dad passed on st. Patty's day and my brother passed on may 21st. Our family home which was our home 3 months after I was born in 69 was sold in August. I understand the pain of losing the people, pets, and things we love the most.

      Americans are losing everything that should be and is our birthright as Americans.
      Giant corporations have lobbied, bribed and even blackmailed lawmakers in order to make it happen 😳 They hate competition. . Just look around, mom and Pop stores, gas stations, restaurants etc ain't owned by Mom and Pop. Because Mom and Pop have been taxed out of business. When the taxes didn't get them, they used the 3 letter bureaucracies to get them. .
      Then instead of Mom and Pop, it's Mamood and Papood that got a generous government grant that bought the business for CASH! They do well because they don't have to pay taxes for 5 years. They run the buildings into the ground doing zero maintenance, then once the building is nearly delapedated they sell the property to the major corporate chain businesses.
      Voila!!! Competition eliminated.
      Then suddenly, what was once a thriving family with an honorable name, gets disrupted. The young ones that should be inheriting their family business are the young military aged people we see living in the streets, under bridges, in tents. All strung out and addicted to hard and deadly drugs that slowly destroys them.

      CBD or THC should be made medically legal, brother.
      It's no different than a medical doctor prescribing you pain meds which are wayyyy worse than marijuana and highly addictive, which leads some to heroin addiction which is beyond worse compared to pain meds. Maybe he is using CBD or THC or both to ease physical ailments like I have (mostly very bad back and neck issues) from being in the construction field my whole life and I am 53. Not speaking for Oliver Anthony by any means, but perhaps he has unknown physical ailments.

    Faith, family, freedom - that's the foundation of everything that matters. The rest is just noise. Your support in this ministry means more than you know. Together, we're showing people there's so much more to life than what they're being fed.
    Keep being real, keep standing strong. We have, if we are luck 70-90 years, help those that can't help themselves. Be God's hands and feet! Mad love and respect, my brother from a different Mother. 🙏

I knew I had to get back to the base of life. Nature. Its all around us, and we ignore it.

    Everything in this video resonated with me.
    37 years ago, we left a fast-paced suburban area and bucked 'the system'. We moved to a rural area in Virginia and never looked back. We turned our small home and our acreage into a thriving homestead with big gardens, chickens, goats, and a few horses. A huge burden was lifted when we left that rat race, and I was able to stay home w/ my 3 sons. Nothing can take the place of raising your children.
    Prayers to you for your beloved dog. We recently lost our Labradoodle to Lymphoma. He was only 5 when diagnosed. W were blessed to have enough savings to afford chemotherapy to give him an extended life. We had him for 16 more months. I understand your grief -- losing a wonderful family member is so painful.

The trailer was so rusted and rotten, the roaches had to hold hands when the wind blew to keep the walls from collapsing! 😂 Had a temporary power pole with two extension cords to run a fan, crockpot and a few lamps. Water hose from a water well, no hot water heater. Camping toilette in a shed was the bathroom. Had to dig a hole in the woods with post hole diggers to empty it.
