I love that your book is not about destroying your family. Your book tells us that your parents raised a young lady that loves The Lord, follows the word by respecting/honoring them. Your honesty is refreshing. I pray your family & friends will embrace your book and see the truth in the Bible. God Bless you!
They allegedly knew the bible well before adopting the harmful teachings of Bill Gothard. Bill Gothard didn't introduce them to God so ignorance isn't an excuse. Sadly they have a stark and lifelong reminder of the damage it probably caused. A convicted pedophile who can never again be unsupervised around minors, particularly his own family. He will be 70 before that can happen. Heartbreaking for his children and extended family. Jinger gives a lot of grace.
Really appreciate that Jeremy came into her life & lovingly & patiently showed her the difference between what she’d been taught all her life vs. what precisely the Bible teaches from an Awesome Loving 🥰 Lord Jesus Christ Almighty God! Love hearing them working well together & truly understanding the correct understanding(s) about the absolute L❤️VE that Jesus Christ in His Word > The Holy Bible. Really curious; what’s the translation of your Bible that your using? Curious & wanna know. Please someone let me know if you know the answer.
After hearing Jingers scenario about no debt 18 kids in a 2 bedroom house. I am beginning to view her dad in a possible different way. He had to work hard,possible long hours to take care of his big family. We all know that they started out in a shoebox house. And then when TLC got them into the big house he could probably see the light. But as a man who struggled for years, its no wonder that he fell in love with his growing bank account and didn't want to pay his kids,wanted to maintain control over them, keep them in line and on the show. He covered up what Josh did to his sisters in order to keep the show on TV. That was a big ugly mistake on his part. And then you have Michele at home struggling to care for a million kids, homeschooling and keeping the house clean and being joyful every night. Gothard is a true cult leader. He is probably the reason that these two made all the serious mistakes as parents. Not excusing their actions with Josh...just seeing a maybe why. Its amazing they both didnt lose their sanity. As the years went on JB became greedy, Michelle continued to joyfully pop out a kid every year.mind blowing. Gothard should be ran out of town or put in jail for the damage he did to many adults and children. When I was a kid,my religion taught me about heaven and hell. Like Jinger,I was scared to do anything wrong. I knew I would suffer in pain and probably burn and melt in hell!!after becoming older and a little bit wiser I realized that God Is a loving God and doesn't want to see us hurt. I also realized that when I die I'm going to heaven because I have lived in hell ... Arizona ... Temps near 120 degrees in the summer for 65 years!! End of my novel. Please note.. I am not condoning Jim Bob or Michelle for ignoring Josh's sin against his sisters or later years. I am not that forgiving. I hope he goes to hell and burns and melts in hell!!! 😊

Very well said. She loves her family, and she loves Jesus....she was raised by parents who feared the Lord. I pray that her family would read her book and be set free from legalism and live their Christian life following Jesus, not rules.
I just have to say this, you mentioned that you felt you didn’t really have your own personality before your journey, but I remember watching your family’s show a few times in the beginning, and I said out loud- “That girl is going to change things! She won’t stand for all that control for long!” I’m so happy for you, Jinger. You’re inspiring many people out here in many situations.
I remember saying the same thing!
Funny, my clue was her caffeine addiction.🤣 I loved she drank coffee (my addiction as well).
That’s so funny because I said that exact same thing when I was watching 19 kids.
Control?
The thing that stands out to me about this interview and others that I have seen Jinger do is that she is an eloquent, intelligent woman who is now speaking for herself rather than just sitting there meekly. The transformation and blossoming is stunning . Hats off to Jeremy for the support and for allowing Jinger to become Jinger and step away from the image her poor mother was trying to create. What a great team you make and what lucky little girls you have.
Olivia: 💯 % agree with your comment above. 😊May Almighty God Jesus Christ continued to be Honoured through Jinger & Jeremy Vuolo!!! 👍❤️🙏🥰
Such a blessing that you don’t criticize your parents and others. God bless
There is nothing wrong with criticizing evil.
We do not know what really went on in their home. Only the people that was there really knows. We know something’s happened with Josh who definitely has issues. She said she believes her parents brought them up the way they did to protect them and in the beginning meant it for good. Josh is definitely where he belongs. But I do not think their whole family is evil. I do not know them personally, so I have no idea but I do know that I would want a relationship with my parents and siblings as long as there was no abuse coming from them. I also think money got in the eyes of the father, but like I said, I do not know them personally.
Jinger's book honestly inspired me to be more empathetic, to 'be still and know', to always act in love. Life is just so much better that way. Thank you Jinger.
Jinger, I am a Muslim, and I really appreciate your courageous transparency. I have, especially, admired your spiritual growth. Continued blessings! 🤲🏾🤎

I actually commented already. But, I too was physically groomed and hurt by a counselor/ Pastor. After the death of both of my parents within 18 mos of each other. I went to him to be counseled about my huge loss. But. This counselor was a sick individual. It happened 10 years ago and it has taken me that long to move forward. This counselor lost his license because of 2 other women and myself coming forward. But hes still trying infiltrate several Baptist churches.
I too have thought about writing about my journey. Tho I thought of turning away. God did not give up on me. Jesus held onto me. Jinger, you did awesome...I'm sure so many have been given hope...because of your strength. God bless you.
I know one day you'll get a "well done good and faithful servant"
Jinger, you are adorable and the light and love of Christ shines brightly in you. You and your hubby are a wonderful team and I can see what a great support he is to you and how he admires you as well! Thank you for being so refreshingly open and transparent and humble....
I’m so proud of how relaxed, peaceful and mature you are now having gone through this process of writing your book ❤
What a blessing you both are.
Thank you so much that was so awesome. God bless your beautiful family ❤️ can't wait for future videos keep them coming lol ❤️
I love listening to the two of you!
Thank you so much for sharing this God bless you and your family 😊
Thank you two for sharing. You guys are such a blessing ❤
I'm really happy I watched this video. After reading the book, it's so cool to see the lives you have touched.
So proud of you Jinger.
As someone that has questioned the things I was taught in church as a child throughout my adult life, I totally relate to your story. There are things I was taught that absolutely made no sense at all and once I became an adult and was able to read the Bible and comprehend it from a different perspective than I was taught to, and form a relationship with God on a different level, I lost family along the way. Most people can’t break away from, as I call it, traditions passed down from generation to generation. And they don’t want to hear a different perspective. I’ve come to realize religious beliefs aren’t what forms a relationship with God it’s talking to God , understanding his word and living his word. You are so brave for speaking out and I’m really proud of you❤
Y'all are so precious. Keep being a blessing to others.
I’ve been binge reading your book and it is soooo good. Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you both so much and God Bless all. Jean
Love this interview! Lots of respect here. Jinger is super impressive.
This was soooo good! I can definitely see and feel your love for Christ in all of your interviews. I have been constantly praying for you during this journey. Keeping trusting in the Lord. ❤🙌🏽🙌🏽
Your presence is very calming. I hope you continue to share your journey. Imagine all the people you can Help!
Im so happy and proud of you Jinger .
God bless you both!!!
It's good to see you thriving. You seem like a happy and supportive couple. I wish you the best.
Love the interview and I look forward to reading your book. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so thankful the Lord laid this book on your heart and guided you to write Truth and how much time you spent writing it. Yes those of us on the screen side would cherish a real conversation with you guys but I guess that’s one nice thing about social media -we can hear from you and that’s helpful too as I can relate so much to this. God bless your family. And I love the Walmart sweater. ❤️
You guys are so sweet. I love how Jeremy is so interested in your thoughts and feelings
Thank you for your time to be open with your journey. We all have our own and I am a believer of investing time to confirm what I’ve been taught. Bless you and your family
I just love you two together. 💚 He seems like such a rock for you. 💚
Congratulations on your book! I absolutely loved it. Thank you for taking the time to write this timely and important book!
An incredible journey! I hope and pray those who really need your book will have the freedom to read it.
I ordered your new book Jinger. Can't wait to read it.
I'm so thankful that you are finally " Finally Free Indeed"🙏
May God bless you and Jeremy 💕and your two precious little girls.💖💖
I loved hearing from you both. Thank you Jinger, for coming from a place of love and concern, and not from a place of disdain for others still living in the dark. I read about deconstruction, and so many who are in the process seem to literally hate everyone in the church. It's so sad. God bless you both, and your children!
God bless you Jinger and Jeremy and your daughters, great family.
So thankful for the book…. I’ve struggled with fear for a long time and the book is helping so much. Thanks for pushing through the hard times and writing this book. Love the pureness of your heart. Keep being you 💖💖💖💖
I love how you two love each other. You're kind, clear communicators and the respect you have for the other abounds. Great conversation to see!❤
I’m so grateful you wrote the book rather than doing a podcast. I would never have found a podcast, but I’ve already read the book twice and I am starting to read it again. Thank you for writing the book, Jinger. I love you for it.
I’m reading the book now. My kids bought it for me for Easter. Loving it so far.
Thank you for sharing this with the everyone because it will make a difference in peoples lives 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
The scenario of the homeschool mom of many children being overwhelmed-oh how many times I’ve seen that! When I was a little girl at church I thought-why are these women so unhappy and worn out? didn’t inspire me at all. It breaks my heart. The burden so many of them carry is just too heavy yet they feel bad if they cannot keep up. 😢 Thankfully I married a man who had a healthy view of God and the Bible 😅I read your book and loved it so much! The part about fear i can relate too SO very much. Listening to you is healing for me, thank you ❤
Have always loved Jinger and Jeremy as a couple, since when they were courting until today. May you both always be blessed with a beautiful marriage.
God Bless you and Jeremy...
The very best thing that EVER happened in your life was God sending Jeremy to you.. I have read yalls book together and this one.
Yall are blessing others more than you both know... We have family members that are sadly a part of that church and we see how warped they are.. The poor children are so messed up and are not allowed to see or speak much to the others in the family... Pray with us that eyes will be opened, and God's grace will fall upon those that are believing the lies..
So proud of you both..
Thank you so much for writing this book. It has helped me realize I really need to spend quiet time reading my Bible. ❤
Love y’all.Praying for you❤
The cheap tiny shabby house with the woman who HAD to have a child every time it was physically possible and homeschool them all WAS Jinger's childhood. It was HER mother, depressed, not coping and probably with chronic anxiety about being what Got-hard (appropriate hyphen) told her she should be. Thank you, Jeremy for saying the words "these women were in a cycle of abuse" Abuse is exactly what it was. Michelle Duggar was an abused wife, her husband was the abuser even if he never laid a hand on her. He abused her spirit, her body, her health, her heart, her womanhood and her autonomy.
Extremely judgmental
@@tammyglauser3831 Call it what you wish, it's my opinion and one I am entitled to. Jim Bob Michelle and some of the kids have publicly admitted they were crammed into a tiny rundown house with not enough room for a bed for each child. They had to queue to use the one toilet and some kids slept on the living room floor or couch (the place where Josh committed some of his crimes) The point I am making is it's one thing for Jeremy to talk about "women of the IBLP" were in a cycle of abuse and not acknowledge that Jinger was a victim of that situation as was her mother. They seem to skip past the fact that if it wasn't for Jim Bob and Michelle the kids wouldn't have been subjected to the "teachings" of Bill Gothard that subsequently caused harm to many of them. They were the only conduit between Gothard and the kids yet they get a pass?
The women ARE in a cycle of abuse! I just watched "Shiny, Happy People " . The IBLP is HORRIBLE. The women have no voice. The children have no voice. Bill Gothard had NO children yet he told everyone how to discipline their children and how to raise them. Women have to be "Joyfully available " to their husbands. The men are expected to father as many children as possible. The toll multiple pregnancies so close together takes on the women is enormous! Their bodies don't get a chance to recover between babies, the women are overwhelmed by trying to care for all those children, and the man is working multiple jobs to support his family. It's horrible.
@@tammyglauser3831Not really, because most of what she said is true. The women in the IBLP are abused and isolated. It's terrible.
This was awesome. So impressed with both of you. 👏🏻👍🏻❤️
❤Everything you say is said with such maturity & wisdom, Jnger!! I'm so blessed to hear you & keep up on your lives via youtube so you can say what you feel! So lucky to have support & love & a friendship w Jeremy. lov you guys!!!!🙏
So proud of you Jinger! I have followed you and your family since the 1st time you all were on TV. You have turned into a remarkable Godly woman! God bless! ❤
I'm so happy that Jinger wrote this book,I'm looking forward to my copy of the book.
Oh Ginger I am so proud of you and your growth through your walk with Christ 💗 Praise God you have such an amazing man of God in Jerome too! I have not heard your story but want to read it. Thanks for digging deep and sharing so personally. Blessings to you both ❤
I believe I didn't just fall upon this video but was led to it. I had all kinds of these feelings Jinger has talked about and they built up for years of my Christian walk until I began to realize I had a problem. This realization was from the Lord. A few weeks later I fell upon Jinger talking about it on videos. It was like a light was turned on for me! Deliverance is mine....Praise God!!! I'm so grateful. Thank you....I deeply thank you.
Bless you! I’am so glad you did this Q & A! I really didn’t understand why you wanted to write it! I thought you were blaming your parents! But I was absolutely wrong! Please forgive me! Thank you thank you thank you for writing this book! May God spread healing! Blessings!
I'm so glad to are doing videos! You were my favorite storyline in the TV series, and I saw a spark in you that was something special. You have built a very sweet family and I hope to see more of you in the future ❤️
I Love your book and im so happy to see you Guys.
So much love for you guys and how you continue to show respect to your family is commendable. Watching your transformation and finding a different angle of God on your own is amazing, you really changed the world. Love you guys from 🇿🇦
I have not yet bought your book but I have watched many of your interviews. It’s quite a blessing to see you break free from that bondage that you lived through. I am your mothers age so I speak as an older woman. I want to encourage you to keep on your path that you are on, breaking away from the deception of Bill Gothard’s “teachings.” You’re a beautiful girl and the light of Jesus shines through you! God has given you a godly husband that has helped you walk through this. I can tell that both of you have a good heart and are not passing judgment upon your parents. You’re a good girl, (sorry, that’s the older woman in me,🥹) God bless you both, ❤️
I thoroughly enjoyed watching you and your siblings grow up on TV. I am so thankful you have learned God’s truth. You are a blessing 🙏🏽
I absolutely Love Jinger & Jeremy!! They have always been genuine and you can see the Love of God in their character. God Bless 🥰🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼
You are both so classy. I am proud of you both and can't wait to read your book.
Your book was great! I listened to the audio version and would love to hear more.
When I began watching this clipQ&A, I figured this would be the insomnia relief I was looking for (45 minute Q&A can be long!). Goodness was I surprised when it ended and I was not only still awake, but longing for more…. You two have a love that spills out of the screen! Your love for each other, your families and our Lord is so inspiring! Thanks for sharing. This was much more enjoyable than counting sheep! Numbers 6:24-26
I loved jingers book so much i read it in one sitting.Shes,a fantastic writer!!
Just finished your book. I am proud of you for focusing on truth and not walking away from your faith completely. I enjoyed the read. Great gospel message throughout.
First, I want to say that you, Jinger, look so much more at peace and it shows in that you also look so much more beautiful than you ever have. I also wanted to say that I was involved in a group over 40 years ago that was similar to the IBLP and I can tell you that faith is a lifelong learning process. When I left the group, I knew that God did not favor any one group. Keep learning and growing and never feel bad if your faith and learning takes you places you never dreamed of. It's a fascinating journey to keep learning and learning.
Glad you are able to tell your journey
This was very interesting to watch. Beautiful
Hello from Ontario Canada, love you both, God bless
I just finished and I really loved this book!
I am so glad jinjer meet jermmiy
This was such a sincere & informative time of conversation about you, Jinger, the reason you wrote this book, your relationship with Jeremy & your girls & finally the beautiful statement about Jesus & Christianity that Jeremy read from your book❣️
So real, so heartfelt & refreshing ❤️✝️ God will continue to bless you & others through you…Proverbs 3:5-6
Thank you thank you precious one. May you continue to share, even the tough conversations. Blessings to you, your family. Also pick up the camera again, you have so much beauty around you, I remember you having a camera on the show when you were younger. It could be a fun creative outlet for you.
“It Squashes individuality” is good point!
What a wonderful QandA . I loved your book and was so glad you didn’t blame your family for the things that you thought was true teachings. I pray that more of your family’s eyes we’ll be opened up to this fact. We are never to old or to young to know the truth about Jesus.❤❤❤
What a great video. Jeremy is a wonderful interviewer! You guys are such a role model as a couple.
Amazing to think what you might be living if you hadn't married someone with such discernment to question that teaching. I've heard such wonderful things about your book, and I hope it helps many to come to the Lord that didn't know him before. Your bravery, grace and respect for loved ones is truely heartwarming and inspiring. xo
So happy to see you and Jeremy so happy and grounded in your faith in Jesus. I attended a Basic Youth Conflicts session in my 20s. At the time, the teachings resonated with me and I came home and made some changes in my life. Now I don’t remember much about it and it saddens me that something that could have been so good ended up in the place it did. Bless you both!
TY so much for testimony. I have been freed from legalism and the chains have been broken! Your book has touched millions. Praying you will continue blessing others. Also, my son, who is 44, just got saved and he is free in Christ and a new man. He hated legalism and now his life is glorious!
Loved the book. At 52 yrs old it was helpful to hear so.eone else's story and journey thru with faith intact. It has helped me understand some of the why's of being raised and told certain things. Always love the interviews and just the dynamics btw you both ❤❤ Have to admit I was also a bit distracted by the bookshelves and what kinds of things you both have read or what to read....pausing video and flipping screen! 😂 God bless you both ❤
Thanks! That was great and interesting.
I was not in the Gothard circle. I had never heard of him or his
teaching until I started watching 19 Kids and Counting. But as I sit here reading your book I realize this could have been my book in a lot of ways especially the fears and trying to work to please God. I viewed him as a punishing God if I did wrong than a loving God. I relate so much to your story. BUT GOD….. Intervened. He sent me to a wonderful Christian Bible college that taught me the truth of God’s word. The I married a fellow who knew Gods word and through these 2 avenues God helped me to see that… not by works of righteousness which I have done but according to his mercy He saved me. Thank you for your Book. I’m sure it will be a great help to a lot of people. God bless you !
Hope you write more boos Jinger and Jeremy ❤
Amazing interview ❤
As a mother and now grandmother to several children I am glad you are letting God guide your life and not some human that makes rules according to them. Blessings from Wyoming
I love the way you support and respect each other and are proud of what each other accomplish!! Much love to all of the Vuolo family from Colorado ❤❤ And I’m SO glad you’re not getting divorced!! 😅😅 (The stuff trash media comes up with is unbelievable!!! Some of us have faith in you!!)
Good for you❤
Fantastic interview 🙌🏽
Jinger, I enjoyed your book. It was very informative and tastefully written. 😊 I must admit that some of your story I related with. Mostly the part about being taught that God and Jesus is something to fear, I didn’t even realize that this was my perspective until I heard your words. I am grateful for your candid thoughts and insights. I hope to find a place to learn more about the truth. Thank you and God bless you and your family
Love your book!!
So proud of you, you are such a great momma too ❤️ and I love your testimony of your faith ❤
I don't have telegram, I only have Instagram
Hi. I know this is an older video but I just discovered it. I want to thank you for your book! I was one of the thousands that had preordered it. I was not raised in the environment you were but I was raised in Fundamental Independent Baptist church. We had lots of the same man made rules and fear like wear dresses to the knee, pantyhose, closed toe shoes, no movies, no dancing and so many more. I lived in fear that God was just waiting to zap me for anything I did wrong. I prayed for years (I’m 66 years old) to be strong enough to leave the church and religion I had been in my whole life. We finally found a church that lets us love Jesus and watch God work. It’s so amazing to leave church after each service with a smile on my face. I appreciate your book because I pray it helps so many others that have faith and fear mixed up and I hope they discover it long before they are my age. ❤❤
We are all encouraged by your loving Christ like attitude Jinger and pointing us all to a relationship with Jesus. HIS fragrance of forgiveness and love is spreading. Praise Him! 💜✝️💟
Blessing's from Tampa Florida love y'all
I’m so happy you found each other and he was there for you to lean on and he had the patience to help you find the true words of Jesus. I wish your family all the best but I hope they see the light and can break away from the false word of the IBLP. I give you credit for never putting them down and all the love you give.
I appreciated this book very much. I left the Jehovahs Witness faith and share many of your experiences. Thank you for sharing.
I have not been able to read your book yet. I grew up Catholic but as a young adult, I ran away from Jesus. I stopped being Catholic after being in an abusive Catholic marriage. Most of my family has maintained being Catholic. I have been through so much as a child and an adult. More so than many people I know. For about 25 years, I have tried to be a Christian going to a typical church. I am now trying to be Catholic again. I want to be buried in my family's Catholic cemetery. My health has not been great for the last 2 years. Going back to Catholic teachings some I have had a difficult time with fully believing. The bottom line, I have my personal relationship with Jesus. It is too bad when the biblical scripture can be twisted and manipulated. Congratulations on your new book. I love to see you become more of your own self. I hope you help many people with your book. ❤
Gabriella, I am so sorry that you went through this. You will find people miss using religion to manipulate people. I've been a Catholic my entire life and wouldn't be anything else. Praying that you will find peace and healing.
The Catholic Church is the same roman / Babylonian tradition teaching. Nowhere in scripture does it teach to pray to Mary the queen of heaven .
It's also works based salvation. As well as ALL the Pope's Vow to be a "stand in" for God on earth and then take their seat . I believe it's something the bible speaks against and hope n pray you can understand this misconception they teach.
Just to make it clear they believe God must have a wife or queen or something.
Received your book today I’m already on page 105. Oh my goodness the whole food issue and going to hell if I eat pork or not; amongst many things like attending a church on Sunday and if I’m going to hell or not etc… the fear is real. maybe I wasn’t gothard child growing up but the legalism and the fear from these extreme views it instills in someone is real. And I’m 38 in May and just now trying to disentangle myself. Thankfully I ran across your podcast on cultish I bought your book that very day. Anyways I’m sorry you had those fears but relieved that I’m not alone and it’s almost a normal reaction to the very legalism that is instilled in someone from a young age. Thank you for sharing it real is a blessing from God that He kept us from losing hope and faith in Him. Thank you again for sharing your life’s journey with us. It does help and it is making a difference and I’m sooo thankful you didn’t lose your faith.
i'm so sorry I missed this. I've been a fan for a long time. I have your book good
Thank you for sharing
Beautiful couple ♥️
