    I came here after watching Crystal Renee on B. Simone’s podcast and my thoughts are her sharing a piece of her story to Lecrae’s audience is a true blessing. The realness really blessed me which is why I am drawn to Sarah Jake’s Robert, Lecrae, Crystal Renee and the cast on Sista’s. I haven’t read the comments yet, so I don’t know what was said. But, I pray the voices of us who are in the business of lifting one’s spirit up rings louder than the others.

    Ephesians 4:29 NLT

    I mean this in full love, I’ve been rocking with you since After the Music Stops (and will still). But we can’t compromise our values, and try to normalize it for Christians. Talking about sex out of marriage, cursing and other worldly acts in the same breath as talking about living for the Lord just doesn’t work. Fresh water and salt water can’t flow from the same spring. Let’s not promote sin, but rather promote holiness.

    Lecrae, please receive this in love, as I truly come in peace. When you have a platform of this magnitude and you are professing Christ, you have to be very careful. The Bible tells us that it is better to tie a millstone around our necks and cast ourselves into the sea than to create a stumbling block for babes in Christ. Matt 9:42. I say this because as a more seasoned believer, I believe this specific episode will cause many to stumble.
    There is discussion of cussing, drinking, and cohabitating outside of marriage. The Bible tells us to abstain from corrupt communications (Ephesians 4:29) and to abstain from even the appearance of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:22). I am not saying that it is sin to have a glass of wine, but Paul teaches us to be careful not to cause others to stumble. Romans 14:13.
    Many will see this episode, including those who struggle with drinking who should not be drinking and those who are fornicating, and think it is ok to keep doing these things.
    Where you both are in your sanctification process is between you and God, but when you profess Christ on a public platform and choose to speak on biblical topics, you are held accountable if you cause others to stumble.
    As a sister in Christ, I urge you in godly love to examine your heart and repent for the unbiblical teaching and conversation in this video. I would love to see you set fully on fire for God with no compromising the Word. We know it’s in you brother, but this is not it.

    7 years ago I thought I was a man. Everyone told me I was and I felt more comfortable presenting myself that way. I never felt very feminine and always enjoyed doing things considered to be masculine and dressing that way. Thanks to the consistency of the love from my local church though, I was able to find my identity in Christ, and ultimately I made my fleshly identity to be one that reflected how God made me and not what the world said about me. Praise God for the work he has done in my life.🎉🎉🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏

      I hope you are getting therapy though. On a serious note. I have been doing the research and the research suggests most people who have those feelings have those feeling for a reason and it’s usually environment, upbringing, or attitributed to a medical issue or disorder.
      For example, the research is showing once people who thought they were trans actually went to good therapists …they found out they were autistic. They are not trans but autistic but didn’t get the help they needed sooner. They are finding out all over the place trans people are being misdiagnosed!

It continues to highlight that we are all navigating the Christian walk, which is a lifestyle, and that we are at different points on the spectrum of becoming more like Jesus. I don't agree with every view and/ or comment shared but I definitely appreciate the honesty to discuss these topics. Based on the differencs in background, teaching and personal convictions, it was simply two Christians discussing the realities of their Christian walk. It isn't a sermon, but just a conversation.

We have lives but what takes preeminence is Christ, His word and His will. You would never hear us talking about our horoscope signs, cussing, attending a Beyonce concert, etc....this was such a babe in Christ talk, if that. As someone said, this video could lead a lot of young believers thinking sin is okay. The line between the Kingdom of God and this world was super blurred. Now the video with Jacky Perry and Priscilla Shirer was on point. So no I was not expecting a sermon; I was expecting a meaty conversation. Crystal did give me insight on where she stands spiritually so my job is simply to pray that she continues to grow in Christ and surrenders all.

    Judgmental Christians is why ppl don't come to church. She literally said nothing wrong. This was a great interview and kudos to her for her transparency on living a normal everyday life that both Christians and non Christians live and that is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Imagine passing judgment on someone while having multiple issues yourself that need to be addressed and instead of drawing someone to Christ you push them away and further into whatever struggles they're already trying to get free from as it is.

    It's always interesting, when the Holy Spirit of God convicts you of something, there's always someone there (the enemy) telling you that what you're doing is "ok" to do.
    The beautiful thing about God is, as you truly continue to seek him with your whole heart, he will show you his truth.
    I used to think "cussing" wasn't bad. I was a PROFESSIONAL at cussing!!🤭🤭
    BUT God showed me that cussing was not of him at all.
    Think about it. When you think of the purity and holiness of God, cussing doesn't match the character of God. Can you imagine God cussing.😳
    We're made in the image of God. Cussing doesn't represent God at all.
    If cussing was OK, why is it that true followers of Christ would NOT dare use a cuss word and Jesus name in the same sentence.
    Everything we say and do is accounted for.
    ‭Colossians 3:8 NIV‬
    [8] But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.
    ‭Ephesians 4:29 NIV‬
    [29] Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.

    Crystal, I say this in love, the enemy doesn’t care if you’re acting. When you use your body (which houses your spirit) as a vessel to act out different scenes that are opposed to God’s word..it’s sin. We all for short but we all have to really consider if what we do honors the Lord. If God was literally in flesh sitting in the room sitting next to you as you did the sex scenes, would you do them? If God was in flesh sitting next to you as you cursed, would you do it?
    Your heart felt convicted for a reason..don’t let anyone, not even another celebrity, family member, make you feel like you heard God wrong..read the word for yourself and his voice will be the only one that matters as you draw nearer to him❤️

    Understand that what you are "navigating" is divisiveness. Money makes you have options that you explore, absent of full commitment to God. The Bible absolutely talks about corrupt communication and blessings and cursing. You are putting your own compromise on it. Luke warm, be hot or cold. When you feel a type of way when you're cursing...its conviction. Money gives you confidence away from God. I love you guys, but everyone is compromising. Straight and narrow is the way and few find it

    I don't usually comment on people's posts and try to point out errors from people but this is very much misleading. I love and appreciate yall following Christ and totally appreciate the authenticity, it's commendable. But the part where the lady speaks about "where in the bible does it say we shouldn't cuss"? Girl, everywhere. Cussing is unwholesome talk, doesn't build up or edify anyone. It's perverse... I also was once a cusser but when Holy Spirit transformed me, I knew it wasn't right anymore. And if you want biblical reference...
    Ephesians 4:29 AMP
    [29] Do not let unwholesome [foul, profane, worthless, vulgar] words ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good for building up others, according to the need and the occasion, so that it will be a blessing to those who hear [you speak].
    Cussing is vulgar, foul, perverse and this scripture is totally against foul, vulgar and perverse speech and you'll find it all throughout the most of the writings of Apostle Paul. Let us not confuse the body of Christ.. Yes we are all growing but at some stage we have to take accountability for our actions.
    God bless you all.

    Loved the interview 🙌 both of your leadership! This is REAL. Side note of encouragement: You are living your faith out loud in a world where most do not vocalize or display or discuss. This takes boldness, courage, & vulnerability to share your struggles and things you are facing in each season of your lives. Many will be appreciative of your interview. May you read the comments and pray for those casting judgements or criticizing the variety of sensitive topics you touched on. We are living in a new day & navigating new things at new levels where deception is high & false doctrine is present if even in the vein of parallel to 50 shades of gray literally to all the 50 religions of variations of Christianity. God will be who He is to us in every season & He reveals so many good things to us when we are in true relationship with Him. Clearly you are both yielding to God at the center of your decisions and life. Applying your faith 🙏 May God continue to use your voices for every person meant to hear ❤ and in love may you experience blessings on blessings 🙌

    Its true what happens when a Godly man comes along! She didnt like the super churchy guy but someone that make believe in God but still living in sin she wants them to lead her. Hopefully she realizes what God's word says about the character and fruiys of the spirit we are to have and she looks for that. Because a man who really wants to live for God may not want to do some of the things she is ok with.

    It’s nothing wrong with sharing what you may struggle with. The confusion comes into play when we accept a lifestyle as if God has no power to bring about deliverance. The reprobate mind is one that has accepted sin as their identity and that is the enemies deception. Cause folks think the sin is who they are. At least acknowledge it, don’t accept it even if you struggle. Our boy David had this down pact lol

    Why is it that no matter where you start in a conversation you ALWAYS end up bashing the church. There is a point where we grow up! Our testimony can't be we're trying to figure this out forever. Maturity exists in this walk with Jesus. Please promote that sometimes. You can't keep giving the same "I'm just trying to figure this thing out" speech forever. Holy Spirit grows us up and enables us to obey Him. I love you man. Can we progress in this walk with holiness and not be ashamed about it? Oh! Excellent interview skills.

      I absolutely agree with this. With such a big platform, it’s so easy for young girls looking up to her to also feel like it’s okay to stay lukewarm whereas there’s so much room for growth in the kingdom of God. I get the idea of her not wanting to offend anyone by promoting inclusivity and I also do appreciate her just sharing her authentic journey with us. I guess what’s left of us is to just gracefully pray for her because we don’t know her real circumstances that have gotten her to make such decisions.

      One thing I see them do is promote genuine love .. people go through different experiences and sometimes those experiences can cause someone to feel and think differently…belief is something that should be done authentically and one thing I also see them promote is authenticity.. religion is religion and church is church but God will always look at your heart no matter what..They are sharing their journey of seeking the kingdom while also acknowledging that they are not perfect because no one is . They don’t lack maturity,they are speaking THEIR truth about THEIR experiences and no one can change what they have experienced. This podcast could be perhaps a way of them seeking, and to be honest that is exactly what God wants us to do and is exactly what Jesus came on this earth to tell us “SEEK THE KINDOM OF GOD”.

    This was such an awesome interview. I can relate to Crystal in many ways. Being a daughter of the Lord is the Best place to be.

      I think the thing is, when you are truly striving towards holiness, things like a hip hop concert will have no appeal to you anymore. Most of the lyrics are terrible! I literally cringe at some of the songs I used to listen to. I can’t listen to them anymore like I once did when I was lukewarm.
      When you really consider that our bodies houses the Holy Spirit, His Spirit inside of you will become grieved hearing certain things.

Growing up in church and actually accepting Jesus & having a relationship with the Lord is different! I know many of us didn’t like to wake on a Sunday morning go to church etc, many of us being young went to church for our church friends to catch up & stuff! But i remember I told my mom one day that that wasn’t going to church anymore until I found Jesus for myself! And when I did I started going to church again I started to understand why we did all that we did growing up! Just cause kids / young adults be in the church don’t mean they know the Lord hence to why we used to be outside & be in church on Sunday morning 😂.

    This seems like a lot of compromise. I’m just wondering what type of message are trying to bring out to the world. Beyoncé literally said she uses the Bible as a tampon for her period. As a Christian how can you feel okay even seeing someone who disrespected our Lord. I don’t believe in horoscopes but I’m a “Libra” this is why it’s important to be in our bible. I’m not judging I’m simply telling you this is what I see. So if I see this imagine baby Christian watching this not getting the right message. I’m not saying the entire podcast is incorrect, but some things don’t align with the Bible. Same with cursing, we are to be set apart. Being a Christian that in it self should be enough.
