I'm a 19 year old college student who doesn't follow a certain religion. I honestly don't think I believe in anything. I don't remember how I found you, but I'm OBSESSED with your videos. I never thought I'd like learning about Mennonites but you have proved me wrong!!! Love your channel Megan!! Cannot wait for more videos :)
💙
🙏🏻♥️🙌🏻
Same!!
Jesus is good
I am a Christian
I bleach my hair and wear makeup Jesus is love I don't do or like religion Jesus was not LOVE is who he is for all he hung around drunks that is the son of God etc.
Not so called perfect people 🧘♀️💞☕💖😇
Girl, you putting your family first is one of the reasons I love you and your channel.
Right!!
I am not a young mum....in fact I am a 65 year old Australian granny , who enjoys watching your videos.
Cher Binsted I am also 65 and not a mom, but enjoy Megan's channel. She is a positive and bright addition to my day! I live in Oklahoma USA🇺🇸
I'm also a 64 yr old GMA who loves watching Megan's videos too.....
Yep me too!!
I'm 66-year-old grandparent who enjoys watching Megan's videos. Love her upbeat videos.
I'm 61 and I think this is such an interesting channel, and Megan you are so refreshing and sweet! The reason I ended up here is because of your how to sew a dress video, which appeared in my feed. I watch mostly sewing-related content here.
So glad to hear you decline “meet ups” strictly from a viewpoint of both my husband and I working in law enforcement. It is not safe! Love your videos....maybe you need to write your own cookbook! 😉
I love that you emphasize that you are a CHRISTIAN who is also a Mennonite...one way you put Christ first. Thank you for representing our Lord so well.
Wonderful! Our God and Savior, Jesus Christ, MUST always be in first place!!!
@@Navytoy even before your family?
Alice Roche Putting Christ first IS putting your family first! 😊
@@BhappyD not even close.
@@AliceRoche-ii2ke - Yes. As a Christian, the correct order is the Lord first, one's spouse second, then children, friends, etc. , you. This keeps one from loving anything more than one loves God. If God's not first, it opens the door to idolatry, where something or someone is loved so much, it or they becomes an idol.
Megan, I am a 72 year old Grandmother who lives in Georgia. I love your channel because you live a very disciplined life. I admire your dedication to modest dressing, spending money wisely, & putting your family first. I have a 12 year old granddaughter who is my heart. I find your tips are very helpful to assist me in getting through my day. I wish I had enjoyed the benefit of this information as a young mom, but as they say you never get too old to learn! Keep being the authentic YOU living according to Biblical principals!
I am a 61 year old Nana in North Georgia myself. Love to watch her videos! 😊
When she said--- people ask why im so big... And she paused.. I got upset i was like she is so skinny and petite!! 😂😂😂 thank you for clarifying it was about youtube.. 😂😂😂
Heehee! Love it!
I honestly thought this too. I was like she isn't big at all. Then I was like wait she means on you tube. 😁😂🤣
I was like where? She’s tiny. I’m like they must have sent a message to the wrong person. Haha
Same!
"How rude" was my first reaction too. Glad we were mistaken in the meaning.
“Confident but not self absorbed” I love that phrase!!! I’m going to think about that a lot.
Your channel feels authentic. Thanks for the sit down chat.
I love your background music! You playing the piano 🙏🏻 and I love how you talk with purpose and get to the point. Not rambling on and dragging things out. Keep up the awesome work!
Hi Megan, I’m also a Christian born again and love to share my faith with other friends, so they can know the joy of having Jesus in there daily life. Love your family your beautiful people. I enjoy watching your RUclips channel keep it up blessings.
I think you're very real and grounded . You actually led me to Lynette's channel. It's so nice to find something on youtube that isn't negative or materialistic. Keep up the good work and by all means protect your life balance.
Part of why I am listening other than being interested is your talking speed. I love it! Your thumbnail 100% caught my attention. Great job!1
I just love your brightness and your authenticity. I also love how you answered the negativity question... you put it into words so well. And your talking speed energizes me. :)
I'm also a Christian mennonite from Alberta and I love,LOVE your channel. I especially liked your answer about men versus women blending in with their clothing. Thank you so much for being yourself !
Hi Megan! For the record, I love how fast you talk. I am also a teacher, also a fast talker, and your channel instantly appealed to me because of the speed with which you covered your content 😂😁.
Love this! I really enjoy it when you sit and "chat" to us and answer questions! I am really enjoying your videos and your transparency! It's Clear to see you are just being you and its refreshing! God Bless you and your family!!
I love your videos. I’m a mom of 3 grown children. I think you are amazing to share your experiences with being a mom and a Mennonite with the world.
I am a mennonite also and really appreciated your answer on the question of why our men blend in more then our women. You said it perfectly!😊
Hi Gloria!
The answer about Mennonite men and their appearance is limited. The more conservative Mennonites are not at all hard to spot. I am one. See what I wrote tonight.
After many years as a widower, I recently married a Gloria. It is a special name.
Blessings,
Michael Dougfir.
Megan you are such a joy and inspiration. Thank you for being real! Wow, thanks for explaining the slow down option. Its also great to hear you share your attitudes and personal boundries as a wife, mom, and utuber.
I just want to say, your Instagram stories have really encouraged me. After a bad day at work, you shared a story about receiving negativity and to not let it bother you because as long as we are happy and know who we are in Christ then it doesn’t matter. It really made me feel so much better and was a great reminder. Keep it up! Sending Love from Alabama
It is oddly fascinating to watch your videos as a 49 year old mother of two grown kids. I always learn something or am encouraged in some way. Thank you for having a channel. I wish I had this when I was a young mama!
My advice for negativity... If anyone gives you some, it shows a reflection of themselves, not you. Always be the better person. Be humble and kind. Others will adjust. 😉 God bless
Just hearing you talk about your life is so inspiring 💕 I’ve never been apart of a religion or even a “culture” really and I love learning new things about mennonites! It makes me want to live a better life and be more motivated.
I appreciate how fast you talk as that is how my mind works lol!!
Megan I love your channel! I am a 40 year old woman living in northern Canada. I have lots of Mennonite heritage and the biggest influence on my life now is our fooooood. Oh my goodness restraint is an hourly exercise for me, I could go for some perogies and mennonite sausage and cream gravy 7 days a week! Keep up the great work on here, thank you for sharing your life and teaching us all about life as a Mennonite!
Gossiping & avoidance/fear of confrontation is definitely not just a Mennonite thing. I've struggled with that my entire life. I try really hard to either talk directly to the person or keep it to myself, but the need to vent sometimes outweighs that.
Finding your channel was a combination of a couple of things. First, I live in Montana & we have quite a few Amish & Mennonite communities. In a world where social media, as well as people in general, can be critical or downright mean, I thoroughly enjoy being around someone who goes out of their way to be kind. I was also one of the subscribers Lynette sent your way. You're both amazing & I get a smile on my face every time I see that notification bell light up!
Sponsored by Skillshare! Girl! Goals over here! Anyway great job on answering all the common questions!
I'm a young Catholic mom with two kids as well. Love watching and listening to other Christians living out their faith. Thank you for sharing a piece of your life here on RUclips!
I think it’s excellent you are putting your family first. And the reason I keep coming back to your channel is because you’ve stayed true to who you are. 🧡
I’m also a Christian and love your channel. What a blessing! You have found a way to share your faith by just being you. I loved your answer about the controversial topics and how just go by what the Bible says! Great answer!
I love watching your videos and look forward to them weekly. I’m a busy mom of a 3 year old girl and 6 month old girl. I’m also a teacher! You’re the reason I’m getting through my baby blues and tough weeks. Bless you always!
I’ve always been told and taught if you say nothing but the truth, you have no stories to keep straight. I use this when talking about other people as well. I also don’t mind saying that I don’t need to know whatever gossip they have. I’m definitely not perfect but I do try. I also have no problem confronting people that talk behind my back as I feel I always have room for improvement, and at the very least I feel I (and everyone else) deserve more respect than that. Also I’m not a mom or a Christian but I do love your videos! Keep up the great work!
Megan just love your straight forward no nonsense approach to answering the questions people ask you. Love your channel
As someone who just started their channel, and is truly loving it. I really appreciate you're advice on negativity 💜
I love your humility and down-to-earth demeanor.
I think it’s so nice how you answer all of these questions so honest and even handle kind of rude questions so friendly
Lived your answers and I had no idea you could slow down or speed up a video . Yes be you and don’t let any one get you down
I accidentally found your channel, and I’ve fallen in love with it!! Thanks for being so real, down to earth, and relatable!! ♥️♥️♥️
Hi Megan! Texas grandma here!! I found you through other Mennonite sites when I went searching for sewing tips (I think I was trying to attach a sleeve) 🤦🏻♀️
I really appreciate your videos and thank the Lord for your testimony. 💗
I love your answer about “what do you believe about (controversial topic)”.
Seconding Cher's comment. Not a mom, not usually into mom channels, but I love the DIYs, cooking, and tips. You're doing an awesome job!
I just really appreciate your videos and how honest and sweet they are. The videos are so genuine and your unwavering happiness in life is so refreshing to be part of. It's a good reminder that there is so much to be grateful for in every day.
I found you randomly on a RUclips binge while I was sick a few months ago. I have the same love of learning and I think that’s why I clicked the first time. I love how approachable you are! I’m a single 24 year old and not a Mennonite, but you’re always warm and encouraging and I just love watching your videos! ❤️
I really really loved your answer about your daughter's hair, that's so lovely :)
I am 61 year old woman, living in Australia. I stumbled across your channel via a sewing video and subscribed straight away! I am enjoying your fresh enthusiastic style, thank you and keep the videos coming!
I really enjoy your videos even though I’m a grandma and retired educator. You are delightful and you certainly have your priorities in order. Don’t lose focus. I appreciate your hard work and sharing. You are great!
One of your videos popped up on my feed last week and I'm not sure why, but I'm glad to have found your channel. I'm not a mom, nor am I a Mennonite; I'm not even really Christian, even though I believe in a God. I just appreciate how kind you are and how you stick to your morals and are full of integrity. There are things we disagree on, I'm sure, but I feel like you'd still be respectful of my beliefs as I would be of yours. I think that's really special. Thanks for such fun content!
I love how open and authentic you are, and yet you can still draw the line. That's one of the reasons your channel is my cup of tea :) And that's a really pretty Bible edition you have, or is it a cover? Blessings to you and yours! ❤
I love how your channel is so wholesome. Honestly a breath of fresh air!
I was raised Independent Fundamental Baptist and it is so refreshing to find clean and positive channels on RUclips. I am single and do not have children but I enjoy your channel because of the values you convey. Keep up the great videos and thank you for sharing them with us!
Megan, your new home looks beautiful! I loved hearing all your answers on the Mennonite faith. ❤️
You’re definitely my “cup of tea”. Love your content! 😁
Aww thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Hi Megan, 19yo engineering student here! Thank you for sharing your lifestyle with us. I'm not religious in any way but have always loved learning about different religions and your videos are so wonderful for this. Not to mention; your energy and your speed cleaning videos always get me up and cleaning my room. :)
Megan, I'm a 49 year old South African Christian woman and I just LOVE your channel. You go girl!
I love that you talk fast! I always speed up youtube videos but the down side is the higher pitched voice, but with you I don’t feel the need to! :D
I’m not religious at all but i find your channel so calming and i find you so nonjudgmental and kind.
My husband and I live in Louisiana as of 3 years ago, though originally mid-westerners.
I'm 73 and love to watch and listen to you because you seem genuinly happy. Though, as with all of us, you have your struggles, your positive outlook is refreshing and encouraging. I like that you love God, as do I. Keep up the good work!⚘
Hi Megan.
I’m a 57 yr old grandmother. I love you and your videos. You are a sweet, breath of fresh air in a time of negativity. I’ve went back to watch your older videos.
You are a joy!!
Aw how sweet!
I love watching your videos. I find it refreshing that you are true to yourself, family and beliefs.
LOVE how you say that you want your daughter to choose for herself when/if she wants to cover her hair and wear it up. So so sweet :) I'm a Christian and I personally can't stand to have anything on my head, but your fashion videos are great inspiration for cute modest outfits :)
The Mennonite thing you were talking about, avoiding face to face negative feedback or confrontation is SPOT ON. I'm not a Mennonite but I am a part of a non denominational church and I often see the same thing happening. Thank you for being so open and honest about it!
I love how real this is! We just moved to a smaller town so I love your homemaking videos. Feel like I’m learning a lot!
That was fun! Your channel got so big because you are lovely, honest and very refreshing. You do a great job with this channel. xx
I stumbled on your videos a couple weeks ago and immediately fell in love with your Channel. You’re a breath of fresh air in today’s world and on RUclips.
You do a great job answering questions about Mennonites. And as a fellow Mennonite, yes! Why is it so easy to say something negative behind someone's back? Thanks for the encouragement to stop the gossip!
I sought out a video of yours I hadn't yet seen, to cheer me while I'm doing busy work. I find that listening to you, regardless the topic, puts me in a pleasant frame of mind. Thank you! ETA: former elem teacher here. So many times I find myself thinking "Oh she soooo was a teacher! I know what she's doing there..." Haha. It really stays with us. I know for sure you were excellent at it and the kiddos had to just adore you.
Thank you for your response about your daughter and her decision to cover her head! I love seeing your responses in your faith.
I love how you put it all out there and stand by what you believe! Good for you girl!💕
You can’t live your life according to others opinions ... so good for you, Meghan, you do you!
Hi Megan, I live in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) and am an older mom. I'm 64 with 3 amazing kids.
Wanted to say your videos are uplifting and helpful in many other ways.
I think everyone (or almost) struggles with gossiping, especially women. I believe we, as a species, need to talk about our feelings and this is a way to unload, compare notes, and make sure we are "normal". We just need to be aware of our intent and try not to be hurtful or mean in the process.
I think if I ever saw you in person (very unlikely LOL), I would want to give you a big hug. Sending lots of love your way!
I'm a mom of 2, ages 13 and 6, watching from Wisconsin. I'm a work at home mom, I run an in home daycare. I love hearing about the menonite culture and just your day to day life. It helps me to realize that we all have similar struggles.
I loved what you said about if something makes you happy and gives you purpose don't stop doing it because of other people's opinions. That was so right on. Also I like your sunroom, something about it looks calming.
I love that you do seem genuine! Thanks for sharing your life! I’m catholic and veil in church. Not many do, but I believe it is more reverent.
Thx for taking us along your RUclips journey. Fun to watch you gain confidence and editing skills with every new video.
Hello from Michelle in Kentucky. I grew up in a Mennonite community and can relate to so many things that you say. My grandparents were Mennonites, however; my parents never joined the church although we always attended. I still am in contact with a lot of the people that I grew up around. I love watching your videos and I watch Lynette's as well because it is like having a little bit of those younger days back again.
Hi, I am a born again Christian. I love your channel. You seem so sweet and genuine. Please keep being you. Can't wait for your next video.
I am a stay at home mom of two and I live in France. I found you totaly randomly on my feed and I subscribed immediatly. I love watching your videos while doing house stuff, you are so genuine and your channel is very informative and inspiring ! I wish you the best for your youtube journey 😉🇫🇷
You don't need to apologize for putting family first! I pray God will continue to bless you and your ministry here on RUclips!
We may not be able to meet up (in this world) but we can certainly be together through prayer. Great video. Love from this Texas grandma!
Hi Megan! First off I love your channel. Secondly thank you for educating all ignorant people like myself about being a Mennonite without being judge-y toward other beliefs or religions. I am not a religious person or a mom but I find myself calmly entertained by you, thank you!
Love your videos! I have been loving learning about Mennonite culture. I love when I expand my knowledge past my assumptions or stereotypes. Thank you for sharing everything you share!
I think you are adorable. Some people are so critical and I think you handled the controversial questions so well, with class and dignity.
LOVE how honest and down to earth.Thanks for sharing
I just wanted to say that I love watching your videos! I'm a christian from NH. I have 5 kids-only my 14 and 19 year old still at home.
I absolutely love your videos. I love learning about different groups within Christianity. I have had many opportunities interact with Amish, Bible Belters, Southern Baptist’s and more. I love learning! -Amber
Love your honesty Megan & your convictions. I’m an Independent Baptist & Believe in eternal security & do not cover my head as you do. I believe that a womens hair is her covering. Having said all that 😊 you are definitely a force of encouragement & a young driven women who’s not ashamed of who she is. So happy to see young Moms happy with who they are. I also enjoy watching Lynette Yoder & Hannah’s Happy Home. We need MORE Young Moms who not only Love being Moms & Love their husband BUT also Love the Lord & want to please HIM most of all. Mych
I’ve & Encouragement to YOU from a 58 year old Mom & Mawmaw from NC❤️
You are so encouraging! Trying to grow my channel and sometimes feeling discouraged, but when you talked about "finding your tribe" it really helped me. ♥ Much love.
Thanks for being a highlight of my Thursday’s! Putting God and family first is always the way to go.❤️ No regrets.
I am the same way with confrontation. I would rather walk away than be defensive about what someone says to me. Also I love that you talk fast. I get so bored when some RUclipsrs are so slow. It just makes the video drag. So keep up all you're doing ❤💚💜💙💛
p.s. You and Lynette are the only Mennonites I watch at the moment and love you both, especially the cooking. I've made several dishes and they are a hit.
I’m not a mom either but I love this channel!!!! I am a 23 year old just about to start my career! I love the motivation and positivity from this channel. I love to learn about new cultures and different beliefs I am a born again Christian and worship in a baptist church.
I love how open and honest you were to all of your "Mennonite" questions! Don't ever let others intimidate how you live for Christ! 😊
You ended up in my suggested page all the time! After seeing the fourth video of you on the page I had to watch one and I love watching now! Hearing about someone’s life that’s different than yours is so interesting!
Love your channel Megan. You always cheer me up with your bright smiles and positivity. I'm a 43yr old mama with grown up kids and I enjoy all your vids. You're very wise for one so young, and it's great you share you're experiences with the world. You've taught me some good stuff, another lifelong learner here 😊👍. Oh, my son enjoys watching with me, he enjoys learning about your faith. Keep up the good work and most of all, enjoy 😀. Lots of love from the UK ❤️🇬🇧.
i think it is important that you are addressing it and sharing with viewers that this is why you are not as interactive as you would hope .
Megan, I love watching your channel. I love how real you are. Thanks for sharing the truth out there. You are an inspiration to many. Keep being you!
Hi Megan! I'm not a Mom or religious in any way and when I first found you it was out of curiosity about Mennonites. I've been watching for several months now and I've stayed because I love your tips, your authenticity, and your positive and upbeat personality. I'm always excited when you have a new video and although we differ in spiritual beliefs I find your welcoming and genuine personality keeps me coming back.
Often, I get the opposite feeling from mainstream Christians and many give off a vibe that I like to stay far away from. You are so refreshing!
Thank you!! Now this is how to leave a nice comment even if you share different opinions or beliefs or whatever so I for one appreciate seeing your comment. As I'm sure you know people can be so rude instead of bypassing something they don't agree with they'll leave mean and ugly comments. I really do appreciate you taking the time to write such a kind comment. 🤗
You are a breath of fresh air and positive energy. I,m a soon to be seventy who no longer enjoys negativity on tv. Always look forward to your podcasts. Keep on your journey .
I'm 51 yr old mom of 3 and I watch you daily while I work. Love everything you do! Uplifting and positive.
And we live around Flora In. Surrounded by Amish/Menonites/ German Baptistso incompletely normal to me. So funny the things ppl are inquisitive about
Love the Q & A Megan, and congratulate you on seeing good boundaries with what you would and wouldn't do and putting family first. One of the reasons I love your videos is the way you live out your values which come through when watching. Thank you for taking the time to share some of your life, your family and your faith with us 💐💐
You are a beautiful beam of sun shine. Thank you for clarifying what a menonite believes. I love your candor.
