Men of God and prophets are often mocked and misunderstood. One thing I love about our Appalachian heritage is the deep-rooted belief we have in God and the Bible, even today.
Amen 🙏
I love our heritage. I love my hillbilly ancestry.
.
You aren’t orthodox Christian’s though
@@Saber23 Who's not an Orthodox Christian? I've never heard of an "Orthodox Christian." Orthodox Jews, Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, but not Orthodox Christians.
Presuming you don't have access to a vast Hollywood budget, JD, I'm increasingly impressed with the creativity of your video productions. You're a great storyteller in all respects.
Thank you Frosty, no sir- I don’t have a budget at all per day- it’s folks like you- that support these videos. I spend a considerable amount of time trying to make the stories come to life. Appreciate you my friend
Yes, very amazing!
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller - Right back atcha, pal.
Wow! A true prophet, unlike the ones we have today that call themselves prophets! Thanks, JD!!!
yes ma'am
Listening o you and Donnie has been a blessing my Daddy lived in the Appalachia mountains as a boy it’s the only place I’ve ever felt comfortable I’ve grown up listening through them and now I understand thank you for everything you tell us it’s our only way for us to tell our grandchildren through our memories by the way my daddy grew up in a little place called Fort Blackmore still have a lot of kinfolk who live there an I am always happy to visit

It proves that God is still speaking to those of us that will listen. Love your work. As soon as I get a few extra bucks I’m going to give it to your channel.
Thanks so much, I appreciate you friend.
Perfect example of stupid people.
Great story of what I can hear of it. The background music overwhelmed the dialogue but it may have just been my speakers
You can turn on captions on the video if needed
Wow! I never heard any of that before.. great video!
its a true story, thanks for watching
Well done and great story!
Thank you Sir! I appreciate the feedback!
You are a masterful storyteller and this video is truly worthy. I can feel the cold, smell the snow and take on the hopeless feeling of loneliness and despair with an ease that is very disturbing. Thank you. His story is heartbreaking and undeniably true. As we know many of our Appalachian mountain folk came from Scotland and Ireland ... these regions bringing second sight to some of her peoples. A blessing and often a curse. May he be resting now in peace. 🌹
Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate you support my friend
Arlan, about a year ago I finally had the discretionary funds for the latest DNA ancestry test, and it proved what my family had always said - even as a 2nd-gen Irish American, I'm still that very rare bird known as 100% Irish. Not even a little Viking. No special honors due or anything either, but it does come with what's frequently known as second sight. When your roots go all the way back to the druids, there's just bound to be some of that. It's my basic position that many people lose touch with it even in early childhood since our modern world - for all its benefits and advantages - still looks askance at anything it doesn't understand or can't explain. So it drums that out of people through various social pressures. So I'm especially delighted when modern science starts getting a handle on some aspect of special gifts; for instance, research scientists are beginning to come around to accepting the idea of ancestral memory since so many studies have shown how an animal can be taught artificial aversion to something; and then when its offspring are not subjected to the same conditioning, yet they too will exhibit the same results. Etc.
Just one example of what I used to do in an excruciating marriage when it felt especially dangerous was to 'call' my husband mentally no matter the physical distance between us at the moment. He realized what was happening and yet also that he'd have no peace until he called me on the phone, and I could make that happen in 5 minutes tops. I heard him say to other people that I was the only person on earth he was scared of. But of course that's a major reason I stayed alive too.
And our son was the same way. He was not quite 4 when a huge earthquake struck Chile. We had no direct traditional news of it at the time, but he had uncharacteristic nightmares that made it impossible for him to sleep and wouldn't/couldn't divulge any details. Then next morning when I brought in the newspaper stilled rolled up and tucked under my arm, he said "They're wrong." About what? "They're wrong about how many people died. It was closer to (and he gave a number I don't recall)" So when I opened the paper there was a banner headline on the front page about that earthquake, which I understood then was what had kept him so freaked out all night. And a week or 2 later, the official revised estimated death toll almost exactly matched what he said it would be.
Again, my main point being that this is all entirely natural and it just seems rare and suspect bc society beats it out of most people.
@@frostyfrances4700 I'm honoured to meet you and hear your voice. May you and your family always be connected to the reality of life. 🌹

We were set to move from South Carolina to Oak Ridge.
Very excited.
Then 9/11.
We decided we wanted to be close to our families so we moved back to Ohio.
All things work out.
Oak Ridge is beautiful!
Rich history in those mountains.

Will get back...
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller
I did sir and sent you an email. Hope you enjoy
I am from Oak Ridge. No matter how many times we’ve looked we can’t find his grave. It borders on two private properties. He is a legend here. Thank you for your excellent story and video!
Well my friend, I too, live in Oak Ridge. I have taken pictures of his grave for this video in person. It is on Hendrix drive. If you are coming from emory valley road and turn on to Hendrix- its on the right side of the road in a empty lot between two houses, although the stone is close to someones house next to a bush.
I will look again. Thank you!
@@sheri5556 yes ma'am
What is your name?

here we are, canadein-michigan boarder
welcome my friend
My own father was born a year after this man's death...and had the same gift. He predicted space travel and the internet.
Cool!
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller I 've sent my brother a link to your channel. I think the two of you will get along just fine 🙂 My dad hails from Kyle's Ford, TN.
(Claiborne County). Mostly Melungeons up that way...lots of stories to share.
Yesss
❤️
Neeeeed Halloween Appalachian story time!!!!
It’s coming…
Isn’t there a book about this man? The Prophet of Oak Ridge? Something like that. Mansfield author?
Lots of info on him, just not very many good videos on him
I'm Cherokee and Irish wester nc
Hello from East Tennessee
His predictions remind me of Nostradamus.
indeed, even the US Department of Energy has documentaries on their website about his predictions
The story is already written. No one can convince me otherwise.
💜
True mountain folks know
Right on
Music and sound effects are too loud for "John's" voice.
💜
Yes it is so
💜
Why did they never do a movie on witches and stories in the mountains? Why? Just asking.
exactly
You should do a story on the whittakers in West Virginia if your looking for horror stories
thanks for the tip Cannan, have a great summer dude
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller you too dr.phillips
I don't consider the Whittakers a horror story. They are humans delt a difficult row to hoe. I find them charming in a special way and think "The soft white underbelly" had done a beautiful job in bringing them to us.
@@arlanstrong1424 not that the people themselves are but what happened to them could be considered
No PT 2
there is, I just haven't released it yet, stay tuned my friend
Hey story teller
✌️
The first video you did about John the prophet was better and it was more about giving God the glory... There was no need to turn it into a Halloween story with witch laughter.... At least leave the first one you posted up I was wanting to share it
I will put the original back up for you my friend
Thank you
Great story great narrative this goes to show that people who believe in religion often go crazy
Crazy thing is this was true story
Have to give this one the massive thumbs down. 🙄👎
It would be interesting if I could hear what the old feller was saying but I can’t make out a damned word for the dramatic background music, which drowns out his words.
It’s all just mumbo jumbo if you can’t hear the story clearly.
Get rid of the background music.
This is “over- produced”.
Too much emphasis on intro and dramatic effects and that damned dramatic music.
Less is sometimes more.
This one is a failure.
dang, I was just listening to my son play the piano in the living room and walked past the bar where my computer was and saw your message. Wow, what a way to teach me my priorities. Thank you!
