This was truly a powerful conversation with a beautiful , committed couple and hosts! Thank you all for your transparency!! It has ministered to me in a deep way. ❤
Praying for you, Jackie! The world so desperately needs women, black women, former members of the 1gbt+ community in ministry, but that definitely opens you up to so many more attacks. May God shield you from those arrows.
@@sherismith1070 Amen! Preston and Jackie are such a Blessing in the way they live out the Salvation, Sanctification, and Application of The Word of God! The Lord delivered me on April 14, 2024 from sin, namely 34+ consecutive years of practicing homosexuality. I'd been saved a long time but I was not walking in deliverance fully. The Lord is AMAZING and I'm headed towards dicipleship. The Lord caused me to stumble upon Jackie's ministry on April 15, 2024 a day after I surrendered completely to Him. I'm equally Blessed by Preston & Jackie's ministry!
I am so grateful for this video that I think I "stumbled" upon. God is thinking of me. This video is impactful for marriage and individuals who struggle with self righteousness. God bless this ministry ❤️.
When Jackie said, in essence, the condition of your marriage could be reflective of the condition of your walk with Christ. That was a profound perspective for me. Thank you.
Jackie talking about how marriage is the hardest thing we gotta do so it’s the most sanctifying and it reveals the true state of our true walk was like a 🤯
Marriage is No joke. I encourage anyone if you google Marriage Scriptures. Oo we Jesus❤ These scriptures will Enlighten you too do what's right with Obedience too the holy spirit.
And especially when test comes & you have too forgive too become more like Christ. If you google more like Christ scriptures & a mind of Christ scriptures. Jesus
In single and over 40, I want a Christ-centered marriage so I’ve been watching things like this. These are great, powerful lessons! Thank God for folks like you!
And God has the perfect mate for you. I've been married 14/11. I met my husband at 50!!!!!! A divorcee with scars from past trauma, etc. God blessed our marriage because we were broken vessels eagerly awaiting His guidance and a helpmate. We've grown so much through His Word.
For those facing divorce watching this...we've done counseling, tried therapists, pastors and jesus for myself although he professed Christianity. Our church even sent us to a Family Life conference which by the way was life changing for myself, but felt like i was there alone. Jackie spoke about marriage being the hardest thing you will ever do, leaning into your marriage..i say evaluate what exactly you're leaning into, as ladies how are you being led...because you're always being led as married women despite what you may think...if you arent being able to lean into safety and protection, and sin is more rampant than your spouse seeking the Father...your marriage may not be purposeful or designed for you to even be in...dont feel guilty. Surrender to God, he will disciple yourself and your family in His time, he will give you direction and discernment to make hard decisions to glorify your life and his name. Praying for all of us struggling and trapped in marriages that are painful.
@t.p.5034 because you need to pray a different prayer or pay attention to what he reveals for you. Sometimes God has already answered us, we just ignore his voice or can't receive it clearly because of our own sin in the way.
Powerful talk. Marriage is undoubtedly the hardest job I have been given in this life, however thru its sufferings has brought me and my husband closest to the Lord. Prayer and seeking God daily is a must for survival. We will celebrate 25 years soon and no way would have made it without Him. All glory to God 🙌
@@laurabonton1607 Amen! Congrats to you and your husband! A quarter of a century is no easy feat and I pray He Blesses your marriage and family all the more! 🙌🏿🙏🏾
@@laurabonton1607 Amen Praise God. Congratulations to you and your husband for enduring and working through the challenges to get to the reward. 🙏 Continued blessings. 🙌 God is good. ✨️💛🙏
I appreciate Preston's humility so much. I pray that his honest self-dialoge about his weaknesses, failures, and need for the Lord's help convicts and places the same prayers on the lips of others' who need it.
I appreciate men willing and able to disciple other men. As soon as my pastor heard there was a guy I was interested in, he reached out and started discipling him. It was a blessing for our relationship and has been a blessing for our marriage.
I’m currently divorced but I was married and in ministry for 10 years and everything both couples spoke on was what my marriage was like for 10 years. We didn’t have a couple discipling us as a married couple. And I always felt like the ministry and his family came before me. I became so bitter and resentful until I stopped praying for my spouse. I’m not sure if I will ever be married to a man again, but praying and seeking discipleship in my personal life no matter what package it comes in is something I want to pursue.
I'm really learning to stop pray and wait for wisdom in moments of big emotions .. its hard but it always pays off when I listen.God always steps in when we lack ( and ask for ) wisdom .
💯Yes! High emotion can make it more challenging to walk in step with the Holy Spirit--yet Jesus managed to do it. Love praying James 1:5 for these moments.
I recognise that marriages all over are tested the most in the first few years. What you both expressed happening in your individual marriages, is very similar over here. The devil is an old dog with the same old tricks. May God help and keep us.
I loved hearing about the need for discipleship and being open to the unconventional ways that God will bring that about. I really loved the idea that having a partner that challenges your faith (in a good way) can and should continuously keep you on your face before the Lord. Great conversation
The state of my marriage definitely reveals the state of my walk with God. Both are not great right now and I'm consciously aware of it and going to the Lord more often for help. I also am asking God for discipleship.
I don't hear Titus and 1 Timothy Scriptures preached much these days regarding a man having his house in order before trying to lead the church. This interview was refreshing and encouraging. Grateful for all that was shared. Grace and peace.
AAAAAMEN AND AMEN TO THAT, WOWWWW, SAY THAT ONE AGAIN. Some folk won't, and "WILL NOT" Believe that but IT is DEFINITELY true. That's part of the problem in MANY of these Marriages, There is NO sanctification IN the Marriage and so then other things begin to creep in😢😢😢. PRAYER AS WELL AS LIVING the Life.....
What a powerful interview with the Perry’s. I’ve been married for 35 years and just gleaned so much. Thank you, Dear Lord. Help me to put it into practice in my marriage. 😔
This is my first family life video and wow was it incredible. So many gems spoken by both couples. I really took to heart the comment made about faking ministry. The table with Jesus is always set, He loves spending time with us so there’s really no excuse not to have a genuine relationship with Him.
Vladimir Savchuk said in Build Fire, this about his marriage: “My wife and I made a conscious decision that our marriage will always be a top priority, and our ministry will flow out of our marriage. Our marriage will not get the leftovers after ministry.” I think this is profound, and an approach we should all follow.
Wow! I Just sent this to my husband. We have been married 25 years on the 16th of October. This is great insight and of course Jackie and Preston they are one of my favorites. I loved that both you and your husband are so open. We need to join together and help each other any way we can. Thank you for doing this.
I always appreciate the Preston's boring out of themselves to The Lord. Living with The Lord must be a life of constant surrendering our entire view for His only view. Jackie and Preston are God's reflections of lives continuously offered up to Him, in turn He produces His fruit for others to receive. Thank you both for the fresh manna.
What a blessed & enriching conversation. I've been married going on 46yrs and this is what I needed to hear. It put some more strength in my wings to continue flying in my Marriage💪🏽I'm gonna share it with my adult children. Yall all are truly called by God. Blessings to U all⚘️🙌🏽🙏🏽
I'm over 40 and still single. I really enjoyed this conversation. I do want to get married one day. I have a lot of work to do. In listening to this, I see that I really need to put God first(in all things). I surely don't want to fake ministry.
This encouraged me so much. Thank you! It was a great reminder that as I am in my dating season and we’re walking towards marriage… I mustn’t get carried away subconsciously thinking that my partner can become my saviour (as God has brought him as a gift to me after years of waiting), but I must FIGHT to keep remaining rooted and connected to the vine as my constant priority!
You have no idea how graceful I am to hear the very thoughts that are in my head concerning my own marriage of 50 years. I have subscribed and I will follow as we have no one to disciple us.
Love this episode so much. I’m not married but I find it interesting to learn about these things before that time. And what Preston said about the only thing that prepares you for marriage is marriage really resonates with me. Pray for all those in the episode and the watchers that we all stay strong in the faith. Amen 🙏🏾
This was a great interview and great topic . Your marriage 100% reveals your relationship with God . Just like your life before God reveals your prayer life with God .
I sent this to my husband. I loved the truth in this talk, keeping Christ at the center and love each other through that. Thank you for the honesty and integrity of this podcast!
I am always so moved by the honesty of Preston and Jackie. Although I am 63 year old divorcee, this teaching I can still apply where my children are concerned. I wish I watched this when I was still married, but one never know with God. I had to learn the hard way, to say less and pray more for my grown up children. The devil is liar! Thank you for this interview.
Thank you for this deep conversation. I’m a seasoned single and I feel like this spoke to me in so many ways: about the loving kindness and steadfastness of Jesus, how he longs for us to come to him for everything and how critical prayer is to a true life in Christ- married or single.
As a single person, this episode was full of wisdom. Thanks for being obedient and vulnerable to share. Info like this can help others from going into traps and/or help bring them out if they find themselves entangled in one. Thank You! May God continue to use you mightily
The most amazing commentary on marriage I have ever heard. I am one of the broken who was married to a pastor for 47 years and it blew up for the exact reasons you said. Not unfaithful ness. But exactly as you said. Jesus was not first. The church was. I was crucified because he had not been unfaithful. God showed me that Israel was not all sleeping around. The word He uses means “other gods” not just sleeping around. Thank you. Thank you for the broadcast and for your faithfulness.
@@HereComesTheSonASL kick me from the page plz. I am not here to pamper anyone. Excessive pampering has let the Church in the current state. Don't try to police my language, it won't work.
This was a fantastic podcast and so on time because God is calling the father of my daughter and I to get married and I was just saying to myself this morning that I was going to depend upon Jesus entirely for this relationship. My yes to this marriage is a complete reflection of my faith in God because I know I can’t do it and wouldn’t have done it had He not said to do it and with the knowledge that He is faithful and will always be there for us. This podcast encouraged me to keep moving forward and have hope in the goodness, power, and faithfulness of God!!
The Perry’s are so focused on their mission and purpose that God has set before them. It keeps me encouraged and hopeful with my marriage and family. True beacons of light! 🌟✝️💜
9:47 this is the answer to my question I’ve been looking for. God is faithful and always on time. I now know that the works I do in faith is to be asked by God first, for wisdom. Thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you for the openness “REAL TALK” & honesty bcuz many leaders’ homes are broken (broken relationships) yet in public they fake like all is well 😢 being real & open brings healing in the relationship. How can you help ppl heal when you’re broken? I really like the mum that drew the picture for her son to show how they were loved it❤. Mega blessings to each couple you are a blessing in God’s Kingdom & bringing healing to hurting ppl. Again thank you 🙏🏽
Thanks so much for this interview with the Perrys. These two young people are two of my favorite teachers of life. I’m a grandmother and I have learned so much from them. Preston and Jackie are so honestly refreshing, what you see is what you get. Nothing foney. They are my grandchildren from another life. (smiles). God bless you ALL.
That was a great interview, I’m also praying for the Perrys. The attacks are so great because they have such a great mantle. May God get the glory in every aspect and from everything they touch.
Oh, this refreshed and blessed me. I love you all. I love the air of mutual, unforced respect. It's truly a beautiful thing for brethren to dwell together in unity. See how Christ unites. Look at his uniting power! People across generational gaps, people from different cultural backgrounds wholistically united under the banner of our Savior's love. Heaven will be beautiful.
Love this.. I feel like my husband and I battle so many of these things. God has really been using this couple to speak into my heart on such a deep level, as well as a former Pastor named Mark DeJesus. He does a lot of podcasts/videos on mental emotional and relationship health. I think a big problem we all face is portraying that image of our own traumas and broken families and parents onto God and expecting Him to be the same towards us..
@jadimplesmax665, couldn't agree more. Keep your eyes peeled--and please consider subscribing--from other clips from our time with the Perrys! We've got another episode scheduled to roll out on October 19.
This is SO good! The family of origin conversation so resonated with me today…this WHOLE thing was good. However, I have been praying for a while that the Lord would help me be the woman of GOD He would have me be, including not being selfish or non-submissive. I’m a 49 year old lady who believes I’ll have a spouse. I’ve been just me for so long, I need the Lord to help me be open to receiving another person into my life! Bless you Family Life for this and your own ministry!! NOBODY like JESUS!🙏🏽✝️
Amazing and transparent conversation ... as I listened I shared the link with my wife, my prayer is that we can chop it up (talk through) together about how we can consistently apply these truths. We saw the Perry's when they were here in DMV. Thoroughly enjoyed the ministry God has given them. Thank you Family Life for bring them to the podcast.
Thank you for being vulnerable with us, it's like being naked and unashamed. I feel excited when people are humble and honest, makes it worthwhile to sit and listen so much impactful ❤
This conversation was a great display of how it looks when you lean into Him individually. Your personal walk with The Lord comes through in your walk with others. Thank you for the blessings of this conversation.
This interview was powerful... I watched (RUclips) the Perry's podcast, and to see them in the interview seat was great! I agree with Jackie... in God's kindness He gave me my husband, so I stay on my face! Total reliance on the King! ❤❣️
God very literally used all of you to answer my prayers about my marriage. This was beautiful and humbling and I praise the Lord for all of your faithfulness. Thank you. Sincerely thank you.
Love hearing this--and praising God with you. If you're interested, consider subscribing; our next episode from the Perrys is scheduled to hit October 19!
This blessed me!! The vulnerability, sanctification, conflict styles, importance of prayer, and the absolute dependence on God conversations were sooo good!! May God bless and keep you both!!❤️
So glad you liked it. The Perrys' vulnerability and ability to shoot people straight is such a gift... We'll be having another episode on this channel on the 19th--so think about subscribing. Such a powerful couple.

@@HereComesTheSonASL kick me from the page plz. I am not here to pamper anyone. Excessive pampering has let the Church in the current state. Don't try to police my language, it won't work.
This was a fantastic podcast and so on time because God is calling the father of my daughter and I to get married and I was just saying to myself this morning that I was going to depend upon Jesus entirely for this relationship. My yes to this marriage is a complete reflection of my faith in God because I know I can’t do it and wouldn’t have done it had He not said to do it and with the knowledge that He is faithful and will always be there for us. This podcast encouraged me to keep moving forward and have hope in the goodness, power, and faithfulness of God!!
Amazing! Beautiful! Encouraging! I'm single but I feel like everything that was shared can apply to my your as a mom, sister, aunt...💖
Yes--so helpful for any season and role!
The Perry’s are so focused on their mission and purpose that God has set before them. It keeps me encouraged and hopeful with my marriage and family. True beacons of light! 🌟✝️💜
💯!!
9:47 this is the answer to my question I’ve been looking for. God is faithful and always on time. I now know that the works I do in faith is to be asked by God first, for wisdom. Thank you 🙏🏾
💯Yes. Love James 1:5 for this.
Powerful and to the point. I had to pause it when he talked about being a good dad and just come before the Lord with that. Wow.
I love this couple so much and I share your sentiment for them as well. Thank you for having this conversation with the Perry’s❤
@yolandamorton2807, so glad you loved it as much as we did--!
This couple truly embodies what it means to put God first. Thank you for a wonderful, inspiring discussion.
My spirit is wrecked and encouraged all at the same time
Thank you for the openness “REAL TALK” & honesty bcuz many leaders’ homes are broken (broken relationships) yet in public they fake like all is well 😢 being real & open brings healing in the relationship. How can you help ppl heal when you’re broken? I really like the mum that drew the picture for her son to show how they were loved it❤. Mega blessings to each couple you are a blessing in God’s Kingdom & bringing healing to hurting ppl. Again thank you 🙏🏽
The Perrys' authenticity is so refreshing!
Thanks so much for this interview with the Perrys. These two young people are two of my favorite teachers of life. I’m a grandmother and I have learned so much from them. Preston and Jackie are so honestly refreshing, what you see is what you get. Nothing foney. They are my grandchildren from another life. (smiles). God bless you ALL.
That was a great interview, I’m also praying for the Perrys. The attacks are so great because they have such a great mantle. May God get the glory in every aspect and from everything they touch.
Praying for them with you, @summerrokh!
Oh, this refreshed and blessed me. I love you all. I love the air of mutual, unforced respect. It's truly a beautiful thing for brethren to dwell together in unity. See how Christ unites. Look at his uniting power! People across generational gaps, people from different cultural backgrounds wholistically united under the banner of our Savior's love. Heaven will be beautiful.
As a new wife that just finished year 1 of marriage this resonates with me. I love the Perry’s their insights continue to bless me!
God is answering my prayers coming in a different package..🔥🙌🏾🙏🏽
Love this.. I feel like my husband and I battle so many of these things. God has really been using this couple to speak into my heart on such a deep level, as well as a former Pastor named Mark DeJesus. He does a lot of podcasts/videos on mental emotional and relationship health. I think a big problem we all face is portraying that image of our own traumas and broken families and parents onto God and expecting Him to be the same towards us..
The state of your marriage reflects the state of your walk....what a gem. Thank you. Im going to do some homework now.
Loved that line!
I needed to hear every word of this! Each one of you encouraged my heart.
I truly love how open and honest you all are. May God continue to keep you.
@jadimplesmax665, couldn't agree more. Keep your eyes peeled--and please consider subscribing--from other clips from our time with the Perrys! We've got another episode scheduled to roll out on October 19.
This is SO good! The family of origin conversation so resonated with me today…this WHOLE thing was good. However, I have been praying for a while that the Lord would help me be the woman of GOD He would have me be, including not being selfish or non-submissive. I’m a 49 year old lady who believes I’ll have a spouse. I’ve been just me for so long, I need the Lord to help me be open to receiving another person into my life! Bless you Family Life for this and your own ministry!! NOBODY like JESUS!🙏🏽✝️
This was an incredible perspective! Thank you, Jackie& Preston, for coming on, and sharing your life &speaking the Truth.
Amazing and transparent conversation ... as I listened I shared the link with my wife, my prayer is that we can chop it up (talk through) together about how we can consistently apply these truths. We saw the Perry's when they were here in DMV. Thoroughly enjoyed the ministry God has given them. Thank you Family Life for bring them to the podcast.
Thank uou for being you Jackie and Perry and sharing Jesus as the center.
Thank you for being vulnerable with us, it's like being naked and unashamed. I feel excited when people are humble and honest, makes it worthwhile to sit and listen so much impactful ❤
Totally--makes a huge difference.
Thank you Jesus for these Couple. Glory to God..
I loved it. I love you guys pointing out how people can do ministry in our face but how is their home life. I appreciate honestly. Great job
Beautiful interview. . . It is such a blessing to see the Perry’s transparency and growth.
This conversation was a great display of how it looks when you lean into Him individually. Your personal walk with The Lord comes through in your walk with others. Thank you for the blessings of this conversation.
So glad it was so meaningful!
This interview was powerful... I watched (RUclips) the Perry's podcast, and to see them in the interview seat was great! I agree with Jackie... in God's kindness He gave me my husband, so I stay on my face! Total reliance on the King! ❤❣️
This episode blessed my husband & I!!!! We are newlyweds. Thank you for your YES!
I love the Perry's, I been following them since P4CM . I love watching their growth
Thank you! I am so touched by hearing couples in ministry speak honestly. We need to hear the truth.❤
Agreed! Love their authenticity.
Good morning, good fellowship. I actually felt as if you all were speaking on my marriage. This brought tears to my eyes.
💙💙💙💙💙
God very literally used all of you to answer my prayers about my marriage. This was beautiful and humbling and I praise the Lord for all of your faithfulness. Thank you. Sincerely thank you.
Love hearing this--and praising God with you. If you're interested, consider subscribing; our next episode from the Perrys is scheduled to hit October 19!
This is random, but Sage has Preston's whole face. 😂
HAHA i was so thinking this exact thing im like their kids are a spitting image of preston lol
She definitely does!
This episode was so raw with SO many gems. I saved it to watch it again !
Awesome blessed me so much...correcting me without asking me what i am scared of.
I'm thankful that I can lean into God at all times! 🙏🏾
Love the convo, the power of prayer so so so powerful and important. Do it 1st
This blessed me!! The vulnerability, sanctification, conflict styles, importance of prayer, and the absolute dependence on God conversations were sooo good!!
May God bless and keep you both!!❤️
So glad you liked it. The Perrys' vulnerability and ability to shoot people straight is such a gift... We'll be having another episode on this channel on the 19th--so think about subscribing. Such a powerful couple.
Love the Perry’s 🤎
Praying for their marriage as well as all my brothers & sisters in Christ.
To GOD be the GLORY alway for this awesome couple who knows what it takes daily to be whole with JESUS....amen, amen and amen!
This was so helpful. Praise Jesus.
Great conversation! Thank you for covering them in prayer!
