I am not a Mennonite, but I am a born again Christian and that was an absolutely beautiful and spot on explanation of our Almighty God! Thank you so much for this video!! Jesus is surely smiling upon you sister in Christ. God Bless you ❤️
thank you and God bless!

I totally agree..
I agree too
Thankful for your husband's answer to losing salvation
She’s fantastic! I’m obviously not in her sect of religion but this lady seems so filled with God’s love and truly cares about others.
I’ve been wishing for years that someone would make a channel like this. I love the Amish/Mennonite community in my hometown. They always look so healthy, vibrant, and happy. The children are always so well behaved. I love the food they sell at the local market and the furniture that they make. I’ve always been so intrigued by these communities, but never felt right about bothering any of them about my curiosities.
Anyway, thanks guys!
Thank you! and you are wlcome to ask whatever questions you like. (:
Me too! 😊
Mee too!
My thoughts exactly! 😊
Lords means Angels
Angel means Lord's
Kings means Angels
Who do you serve if you read the Bible?
Angels R Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ R Angels
Holy means Angels
Spirit means Angels
Mary received what?
Who else received the Holy Spirit? Apostle!
Jesus Christ was already an Angel or the Holy Spirit became the baby! Or Pure Host! DNA or blood line is pure incest!
The angel applied it's self to the embodiment of a baby? Host!
does that mean the baby (Host) was an Angel?
Was marry already an angel or did she receive Holy Spirit twice or just for the baby womb
It takes a sperm of a man to make a baby!
She was without having sex!
She was either an Angel or she never receive the full Holy Spirit/Angels cause she was innocent/ ready for use? but the DNA was already corrupt/ manipulated by the Angels having the authority already! The authority is already Gods'. Yet God assessment was to indicate the use of his authority by the angels to see exploiting of how fare the Angels could use the Authority if left unchecked! The host or body had become the blood line of incest ( Host )
So did Marry receive the holy spirit twice?
Marry was angel
She received her own Angel or Holy Spirit (embodiment )
of an Angel.
Luke 1:15 who is an Angel?
what was received? Holy Spirit
She then received the (second coming) Holy Spirit as her baby! (Jesus Christ )
Who are the second coming the Angels
Being received by Humanity or host of Humanity in children
What are the names of those that receive the Holy Spirit? Jesus Christ
(see above statement)
Who has this verbiage of the Angels!
Elite or Ivy league sorority and frat's!
They are the in-between life and death! Why?
They are the medium of the affliction of the Angels and are suppressed when the Angels wants to live within them! (Suppressed within themselves) (Humanity is not in control when suppressed!)
Society worship Angels or idolize Angels why? People only use 10 % of there brains and the Angels devote 90% to manipulation of your life cause everyone has incest DNA until you (marry) outside your blood line! (DNA)
Angels ( Marry) man and woman
Marry becomes the medium to connect the Angels or (an) Angel as the binding or bonding of man and woman to manipulate the DNA of a child to get to the closest results if ( Host or embodiment ) to Control, cause they don't always get what they want cause the authority doesn't belong to the Angels!
cause they want to embody your life cause they control Humanity metaphorically ( the angel wan to be you and physically they want to walk in you suppressing ( your life) to be you
The angel have been creating an environmental evaluation of humanity as a host! To embody
What do you want to receive from the Bible?
The Holy spirit is Angel or
We except Jesus Christ into our body aka as embodiment!
The Bible speak of Humanity as (sinner) humans are filthy and need to receive the what Holy Spirit! An Angel!
You and your children could be considered the second coming!
Do to the or because of what? ( DNA manipulation) or ( incest) or (invetro- fertilization) or ( DNA splicing) and all the people have been going to the physical to the Metaphysical by death!
Why did Jesus Christ need to receive the holy spirit descending like a dove from Heaven? Heaven is where?
Heaven is located where?
On Earth!
Marry became holy cause she was being worship by Angels and Humanity cause she was without being used by a man but accepted an angel as her child with open arms?
Why do you hold out your arms to pray?
By default you are following Angels or DNA is allowing the Angels to pick those to be fruitful cause Humanity has given everything and anything to offer themself to receive the what Holy Spirit!
Did John the Baptist ever receive the holy spirit? Is still Human?
Who sandles was he unworthy to touch? As a human he is considered unclean
Filed with Holy spirit he could then be what on Earth clean by the Holy spirit than be considered (An) what? Angel!
Who do You want to be An Angel that walk in your soul!
If you pick up a cook book are you automatically a Chief no but your learn how to become one
If you pick up the Bible you become automatically a "Sinner" and you need salvation you become a follower of the Angels aka Jesus/ ANGEL Christ / ANGEL THEY DIVIDE THE Family and keep the fruitful ripe (host/human) or the cream of the Crop of those willing to except the Holy Heavenly spirit in which all are brought to there need of repentance to know they have fallen shirt of the glorification of the Holy Spirit!
Or
Give your authority that God granted / gave / Authorized/ provide/ allowed/ to you to be born to be in Authority / live with the Image of the authority of God! It's your choice Humanity God or The Angels or live your life to the fullest and let God judge you when you pass on cause remember you are not supposed to actually die?
I am a born again Christian. I love your heart! There is a lot to be said about having Biblical modesty. I have had the most wonderful experience with Mennonite woman while I was home educating. Thank you for sharing Jesus. You know I am so thankful to accept God’s most precious gift in His son. Your words touch my heart. Blessings to you sister!❤️❤️❤️❤️
This made me smile. My dad was an industrial salesman and worked with many Amish and Mennonite people. I have fond memories of visiting his Amish friend and riding in his buggy. They are such sweet people. He passed away recently and a few of his Amish friends came to his wake. Thanks for reminding me of some fond memories of my dad
Very interesting! I'm glad you enjoyed! Thanks for sharing your story!
I'm glad you took the time to film this. Some of these questions are so hard to explain when you didn't grow up that way!
thank you! Yes, it was harder than I imagined! Ok what just happened?! 14,480 subscribers! Girlfriend! Way to go!

I love you all.
I so admire your witness for Jesus and the beginning of your video! GREAT testimony for Christianity!
thanks, and God bless!
I am a believer and I think you did a beautiful job explaining your way of life. Thank you for sharing.
Blessings!
I live in a town where we have some mennonite families, I work retail and when they come in I love assisting them because they are the most sweetest, kindest people. Just the other day I was having a bad day and one of the families came in, I didnt say anything and one of the young ladies came up to me and hello how is your day going, I said ok i guess, and proceed to have a conversation, then a few minutes later one other young lady comes up and apologizes for bothering me, even though she wasnt at all as it is my job to help, and asks me where something was, I took her and she repeatedly thanked me...made my day better ....just love them.
I'm glad they were nice people to be around. We aren't all that way, sadly... human just as everyone else, but those that truly follow Christ, do try to live out His teachings.. thanks for sharing!
From around 2:20 That little speech had me in tears. At times I feel my faith wander, but I am only human. I needed this. Thank you.
you're welcome! Thanks for watching! Sometimes we need reminded again what is important in life.
That was crystal clear. Now, understand that Mennonite isn't a religion, but more like a way of life as Christians. Great job you guys! And thank you for making this video.
I was raised Mennonite but am now Baptist. Mennonite is definitely a religion. Just like other denominations. It also is a way of life because that's what they choose.
@@martykropf421 Maybe it felt more like a religion if you grew up in it. I find baptists and mennonites to be extremely similar in their faiths. In the end, it's your relationship with God and you're just trying to fellowship with other Christians, and they are in both denominations. Being mennonite sounds harder to me, but the community is so great.
Christianity is a religion. The thousands of different "groups" inside Christianity (Orthodox, Catholic, Protestants, Mennonites, Hutterites, Amish, Baptists, Pentecostal, etc. etc.) are of course not different religions, but part of the Christian Family. Other religions are Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam.
@@Vikingshop No, true Christianity is a relationship not a religion. You are followers of Christ not rules and regulations of man! The way Christianity is supposed to work is you choose to follow Christ and this results you don't want to sin because it would be displeasing to your heavenly Father. Being a true Christian is being an ambassador or to copy Christ. So no rules necessary, your relationship with Christ and through the help of the holy spirit you don't need man made laws. Your conscience and deep desire to not only follow Christ but to be a embassador should be enough. Not meaning we never sin but God wants us to depend on him because the bible says that he is a jealous God and doesn't want us to hold anything to his level or much less over him! I like the saying preach the gospel and use words if necessary! God bless you all! P.s I was horse and buggy Mennonite for 30 years!
@@boomer1049 .... I agree with you. I just wanted to defend the mennonites, hutterites, amish and other anabaptists whos forefathers fled Europe because they wanted to obey God rather than man-made rules.
I ah a believer in Jesus, He is my Lord and Savior I could not live life without HIM. Thank you so much for sharing your faith. How refreshing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Indeed it is refreshing!!! ☺
I'm not Mennonite or Amish, but I was raised Baptist. I'm so glad to meet a fellow brother and sister in Christ! 🤗❤️😊 I just subscribed!
Welcome! the baptist have always fascinated me! We have a lot in common!
@@theMennoniteMom Yay! 😊
Why is she the absolute cutest and sweetest!! Love her! God bless💜
That corgi was coming close to forcing its love on you ;) sweet little dogs. Thank you for this video
LOL, yes they are quite the little dogs (:

Christian first and Mennonite 2nd,
In my case Beachy/Mennonite...
It's interesting to find Mennonite you tube video creator's👍
Very interesting to have you here! Thanks for the encouragement! Yes, there are a few of us on here! It took me seeing a few others to get the courage to start! I've always enjoyed creating videos, and it is a great platform to share. God bless!
What is Beachy/ Mennonite?
I think you’re beautiful without the makeup and with the way you dress. Like many others I appreciate the modesty!
thank you kindly! I appreciate that!
LifeisGoodInTheSouth
I agree. I dress very modestly. I’m looking now to find dresses like she wears. I would be extremely comfortable in that.
@@LoriSF124 I have a video about sewing. In the description are different links you can try out!
NJ Family
Thank you. I’ll check it out. Lynette gave me one link. But I’m not real good at sewing. Lol.
@@LoriSF124 Nor I, @Paige Marshall. But we can learn how to sew, right?? I am really disappointed in what the clothes stores dictate we wear. I am so over wearing ill-fitting clothing that does't cover up what it should! I am really ready to re-learn to sew just to have some simple dresses that are comfortable and allows me to move about like I want. Tight jeans are just not a good look on Grandma ;-))
I live in Mennonite country in Canada (St. Jacob Ontario), I have ALWAYS admired the lifestyle of the Mennonites, your work ethics, the way you raise your children and your sense of community is something we can ALL learn from.... Bless all.
Your husband seems so lovely and supportive.
thanks! yes, he is and I love him to pieces!
I can tell you and your husband have a great relationship!!!
Thanks. I don't know how I landed him, but he is my world. (:
the Mennonite Mom The Lord has blessed you both! You’re an amazing catch!
My grandparents live in southwest Ohio, and over the years, a community of Mennonites have moved in, and they are absolutely lovely people. The community is so kind, and has really taken in my grandparents in a heartwarming way. The patriarch's family lives across the street, and when it snows, they bring all the kids and shovel the (very long) driveway. They check on my grandparents and come to visit, especially after storms. My grandpa put a hitching post at the house for their horses, and my grandma does some of their large grocery shopping for them. My grandparents know almost everyone (several hundred people) by name, and the community calls them "The Old Ones". It gives me so much peace of mind, when I live so far away, knowing that my grandparents have someone checking on them. And it's just a lovely, heartwarming story of two different communities coexisting in a lovely and loving way. Also, the vegetables (and strawberry pie!) from the store they run are sooo delicious.
oh that is so wonderful to hear! Not all are so kind, but that is a true blessing! Serving others! People like that inspire me!
i attended a lovely modern Mennonite church in California. The Anabaptist branch of Christianity is a blessing.
thank you! I'm glad you had a good experience!
Just a hippy punk in mountains of WV. No clue how I got here but I love you two
thank you! (: cheers!
Sean Grim, you are cool.
Loved your humility and honesty, and the introduction you gave about where the essence of your faith lies. Thanks for sharing your story of coming to accept the Lord! Even if it isn't so 'elaborate', as you said, and mine isn't either, I'm sure neither of us would trade the peace and joy and simplicity of actually growing up on this solid ground -I accepted the Lord when I was around 6, and he listened to my 'childish' prayer and led me on, so I'm eternally grateful for that! Blessings to you and I'll be looking forward to that second Q&A! ❤
Thank you for sharing and yes you are welcome! I agree with you! I wouldn't trade growing up on 'solid ground' as you said, for anything! God bless you! thank you for your questions!
Thank you so much for the opening of this video. It makes me so upset seeing other Christians being so hateful. Our God is a God of love
I agree
Thank You, so much! Honestly, I think you did a wonderful job of explaining. Not that I was well-informed and would've been able to critique any of it, except for the first part, regarding your dedication to Jesus Christ and, therefore, though I may not be Mennonite, I believe you are my Brother and Sister in Christ and, I can freely say, I love you both and appreciate what you're doing. Keep it up but, lift up the name of Jesus...I believe, all the rest get sorted out. If we can just remember after quoting the first and greatest commandment to the expert in religions law, that Jesus himself said "and, there is a second that is of equal importance, 'Love your neighbor as yourself', In these two commandments, you fulfill all the law and demands of the Prophets." Thank you both, for setting the example you are. Godspeed to you both!
thank you, John! Aww, you sound just like my husband! When things get complicated he always says that if everyone would remember the two greatest commandments, none of the rest would matter because it would all take care of itself! God bless you and thank you for being here and taking the time to encourage!
This was great! Thank you. I have raised my children to be curious, questioning and interested in their own faith journey. Videos like yours give them a glimpse into a world they aren't familiar with but may want to explore.

Hey... Thank you so much. And i dont think you dress funny. My side of the world, we call it decent.
I echo your reply, modesty is above all.
thank you, both! I had forgotten to mention in the video, we definately don't feel one has to wear clothes like us to be modest, there are many ways... but yes. America is probably one of the worst places for immodesty... It always blew me away in our travels, how so many other countries dress ever so much more decently... it's a shame.
@@theMennoniteMom Yes. I know so much. Thank you. By the way, you are beautiful. Expose or not. True beauty shows..
My aunts bore 5 times. As energetic and intelligent as her nieces..she mentor them on WISDOM. Still as beautiful. BUT IT NEEDS NO SHOWING. I hope my point is taken.
@@ashleytkl3036 thank you for that. Your aunt sounds like a lovely person!
@Silicone Julie yes, I do agree with you. thanks for that. I love people and accept them for who they are. What I meant in my message... I am saddened how society in America has changed so much in the area of modesty. I do not feel people have to live my lifestyle, but I do feel it is not a healthy society that flaunts sexuality the way our society does. Not that long ago, little girls had designated clothes for little girls... now... young girls are being dressed as adults, in sexy outfits... things an innocent girl should not be wearing. It saddens me. I hold no hatred towards people that dress in this way... but I do not approve of the dress itself. Just in the same way that I accept and love my son exactly for who he is, but I also teach him and correct his wrong behavior to try to get him to be a better person. People that love me and accept me advise me when they feel I am doing something that is not right. We all can never stop learning, and never stop growing. So when I see someone making steps to honor themselves, and honor God by covering themselves in a modest, attractive way... it is so refreshing.
Thank you for this video. You both never cease to meet questions and life with class and a true Christian spirit. Class act. Completely enjoyed this! ❤
thank you for the encouragement. It can definitely be a tricky topic to maneuver around. (:
This is a wonderful video. I am not a Mennonite or a Christian, however I found this video uplifting....I might even say inspiring.
Thank you for making this video.
Within the first minute of listening to your voice and your message, I feel so at peace. Wow...You are incredible. Thank you ❤️
I grew up around mennonites and the Amish. I’ve always been so fascinated by the simplicity of the life styles (old order). Us ‘english’ are too caught up in technology, living a rushed life style and depend on material things. The old order don’t and I admire them a lot for it. I’m not religious or anything but I think what their way of life is amazing! Thank you for educating us and I look forward to following your RUclips channel grow 😊❤️
thank you! Yes, I too, sometimes admire their more simplistic lifestyle! very slow and laid back... (: thanks for being here! I'm honored!
Thanks for the shoutout😘 you inspire me so much as well!! I admire your ability to talk and clarify things so clearly! Thank you for representing the Mennonite/anabaptist lifestyle so clearly! ❤️
thanks, friend! (:
Wonderful, informative video!
Thanks so much!
Blessings for y'all!
thank you! God bless!
Wow!!! I learned soo much watching the Video concerning the Mennonite Faith, i libe in Memphis, TN...and grew up in a Pentecostal Home&Church, bt i have Studied alot of different faiths for Academic reasoning, and this was An Amazing Expositon of The Mennonite Faith and The Differences
thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed! God bless!
I am a brand new subscriber and the first 5 minutes of this vlog made me feel so peaceful and loved. TY for that. I look forward to watching your videos. I am Catholic and we pretty much have the same beliefs.
I'm honored to have you here! Welcome!
Catholicism is idolatry. Necromancy is forbidden. Nowhere does it say to pray to Mary in the Bible. Hopefully you see this and repent, before Jesus returns for His faithful remnant.
@@trentsc4929 of course there's typical Protestant nonsense about Catholicism. All Protestant faiths came from the Catholic Church including the Mennonite and Amish. The statement you made about something being wrong to ask somebody to petition in your name is ridiculous. All Christians do this weather Catholic or Protestant. The Catholic Church believes in the communion of saints. Just because they died do not mean they can't pray for you too. Mary is the greatest saint in the Catholic church and should be in the whole Christian Community. She gave our Lord to everyone. Asking her to pray for you is a good and holy thing. It is interesting to note that the first Protestant breakaways believed in everything Catholic about the Virgin Mary
Thank you Zackery van Dress. I for one was raised by Communist parents and two grandmothers, one Jewish and one Wesleyan. So you can imagine what sort of hodgepodge of conflicting doctrines I was raised around. I am glad I had it. It gave me a great education and empathetic world view. At age 16 I accepted Christ on the school yard. This was a family crisis! LOL
Well, in two weeks I will 61. Much life has passed good and bad. To this day I have no church to call mine. I think often a thinking man is banned from the pews. Church is so often a shut-minded trap. I believe in Christ and his death and resurrection unto our salvation. I believe in the great mystery of the Trinity where-in all three, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, are equally God. I believe in the resurrection of all to judgement and for this reason I work out my salvation in fear and trembling.
@@hdanielnoble3671 Praise the Lord!!!!
Thank you so much! That was very insightful, inspiring, and fun. We loved your respectful approach to discussing a potentially tricky topic. It was a nice reminder that even though non-trivial theological differences exist between the different Christian denominations, we have so much in common and we should focus on that!
Also, loved the bloopers at the end. :)
thank you! and I echo your thoughts! Thanks for watching!
@Sarina R I agree, although I will say I do not believe in the idea that all paths lead to God. There are people that say no matter what you believe... you will make it to heaven. The only way to be saved is through Jesus alone. And I do believe we need to be careful and realize there are people that call themselves Christians, but they preach a false religion (the bible speaks of this). Having said that... I do believe that when Christians (who are sincerely following Jesus the best they know how) get extremely unloving, unkind, and intolerable with others that see some things differently (on not moral issues)... this is sad. I believe no one Christian group has completely understood the entire Bible and has all the answers. Once someone reaches a point where they have all the answers for every thing, and only they are right, then I feel that is a sign they most likely do not! LOL. I believe God's grace covers for our mistakes when our heart is truly turned to Him, because He will reveal it to us in due time if that is His will. There are things in the Bible that are completely black and white... it is these things, that when a group of people do their best to twist the scriptures so they can go on living sinful lives and feel they still have God's blessing... these things are wrong, and those types of people are not true followers of Jesus! Just wanted to clarify that while I think Christian groups can learn from each other and should learn to get along better, there are definitely "Christian" groups that are Christian in name only. I hope I didn't come across as offensive, but I just wanted to clarify. Cheers!
@Sarina R thank you! Yes, it is difficult, and I appreciate your encouragement. Blessings to you!
Beautiful sharing of our faith and love seeing clips of your life together ❤️ Joy!!
Bless you!...Your explanation of the good news is by far the most beautiful I have ever heard and absolutely TRUTH. May the Lord keep you and bless you.
thank you kindly!
I met Mennonites visiting England while moored up in our live aboard barge. They were politely interested in our unusual lifestyle, our boat and our home educated children. It was a wonderful complement.
PS. My daughter now has a PhD and her brother begins his MA in September.
God Bless.
That's interesting! Thanks for sharing!
The day of our salvation is simply one of the most incredible moments of being alive. Being born-again is truly an act of God. Jesus is our Lord, God & Saviour. Praise Him, always.
amen!
Amen!
Amen.
I appreciate you both sharing your peace through RUclips. I am trying to remove negative entertainment from my life, and channels like these are exactly what I need and extremely helpful. Thank you both!
God bless you in your decision to remove the baggage of this world. It is so easy to fall into that trap, I'm speaking to myself. Blessings!
I LOVE your thought on free will! I am Catholic and we teach the same thing. So beautiful to see unity across different types of Christians!
Thanks for the video.
God bless you folks. Any one who spreading the word of God is my friend.
thank you, and God bless you as well!
Not everyone's path but they have found theirs! A joy to know that they are living their faith to the best of their ability as revealed to them by The Holy Spirit! 🤗
Hi, I found your video refreshing. It's nice to see that you are open to questions and respect other views and interpretation of scripture. Thank you for your honesty and I appreciate the way you are venerable regarding struggles. Blessings ❤💞
thank you so much, and thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! it means a lot!
I appreciate your testimony so much. I watched it today. You both touched my heart. May Gods continue to bless you and your channel. ❤️
I was so curious to know about this... I absolutely love the kind compassionate energy of Jesus
thank you! I hope it helped answer some questions!
Shweta or anyone who desires, to learn more about Jesus, can find the bible in several translations/languages @Blueletterbible.org or biblegateway.com and there are free bible apps. The best way to know Him is to read his love letters to you.
Thank you for posting this video & explaining things so clearly and with such love. I am not Mennonite but I am a Christ Follower. I appreciate and respect our differences and feel a kinship with you in Christ. May God continue to bless you as you are a blessing to others.
thank you for the encouragement! God bless you!
Stumbled upon your channel and I see we are a stone's throw away.... Chambersburg. Wonderful video!
Really?! that's amazing! what a small world!
I love your videos, it is so bold of you two to make such a open statement for education.
I love the rope around chain on your porch swing! Very cute touch!
Thank you!
That was very refreshing and informative. You both looked cool & relaxed and a little mischievous in a very good way, love your smiles and easy goingness (if there is such a word) How about more videos just like this (Q&A) regularly .. you both so charming.
thank you for that! With a husband like mine, he always has twinkling eyes about something he is up to! Not always, but often! LOL. He makes me laugh every day. Thanks for the suggestion! We will definitely keep it in mind!
Jeaneen, you have the sweetest spirit. Thank you for answering our questions. Tell Nolan thank you, God is blessing your words.
I just started watching your channel and I absolutely love you and your family! Your husband is a riot and I love how he shows affection to you even when you were roasting marshmallows in your chair review, holding your little guy and trying to console him while you sang and played giving you your time. I think being Mennonite is much the same as any other form of Christianity, in each denomination there will be major curves in traditions, guidelines, requirements etc. I just can't wait for the day when we as Christians stop trying to one up each other since we all put our faith in God and live our lives as Jesus taught us, letting each other live with our differences while as a whole living in harmony. On a side note, love the body you are in and be proud it brought your little guy into this world, you didn't look frumpy in the video! Keep making me and all your other subscribers smile! :)
thank you for that! and I couldn't agree with you more! Part of the trials of living down here, is all the drama that can go on among groups of people... I wish that could be erased! Thank you for your support and being here! We are so honored! (and yes, my hubby makes me laugh every day) (:
I just came across this video today and really enjoyed your candid answering of peoples questions. I am a follower of Christ, but I am not Mennonite or Amish. However, I live in Ohio and use to work in Berlin, Holmes County for a Mennonite family. Here too the variables between groups, churches, etc. are vast. When tourists coming through wanted some history, I often directed them to Behalt Amish and Mennonite Heritage center in Berlin. Much better info than I could give. But that was before RUclips. I'm so glad you and others use this platform to show your real life. I look forward to seeing more videos. God bless.
Very interesting. Yes, Holmes County would have a large amount! Thank you for being here! God bless!
Not sure how you popped up, I was looking for granola bar recipes 🤷♀️- but you’re both such lovely people, I had to keep watching. Very informative-thanks!
thanks so much!
I found this so interesting! I'm not personally religious, but I have always been interest in different beliefs 😊 thank you for creating a safe place for people to discuss a notoriously fiery topic!
thank you and thanks for being here! I'm honored!
Thank you for sharing! Love your devotion to your faith! May god bless you in this life and the next :)
this is cool, i discovered so much that I didnt know. so basically, outside of the lifestyle (of which i dont disagree by any means), I believe the exact same core beliefs...thank you Lord for my beautiful brothers and sisters....such a wonderful body Christ has!!
I love that swing.. It's so well made.. I also absolutely adore the respect trust and love that you both share .
thank you! It was actually driving me crazy editing, because every time would cut to take out long pauses we would move and so it appeared choppy throughout the video. Was hoping it wasn't driving anyone crazy! 😂😂
Oh my gosh! Exactly!! I get asked all the time if Mormons and Mennonites are the same! I think you did a great job going through the differences of different churches! Love your videos!!
Found this video in my RUclips feed and decided to watch it. I'm so glad I did. The both of you are amazing and I enjoyed hearing about your faith and lifestyle.
thank you!
Bless you for sharing your faith in such a clear way. I am a Christ follower too.
God bless!
I'm a Christian too and I love the way you explained it! Blessings!❤
thank you so much! Hugs to a sister!
This is very wholesome. You guys are very warm and nice!
I needed to hear this! Thank you!!
I’m not Mennonite, but Anabaptist-y and I love how you brought us into your world. Y’all are a precious couple. God bless you and your ministry 💖
Hello to a fellow Anabaptist! Thanks for watching! God bless!
What a wonderful intro..Holy Spirit led! Truly enjoyed this❤
thanks for the encouragement!
@@theMennoniteMom You are very welcome! you encourage us too😉
Yes... I see the Holy Spirit's Blessing ALL THROUGH this!
We need more channels and videos like yours. It is always amazing when you see people living what they believe. My respect to you and your family. Amazing info video! Thx for your time
thank you, and blessings!
Thanks for explaining your faith. I was raised in a conservative Baptist church, and your doctrine is the same as ours, and that’s really all that matters. I just recently found your channel and I’m enjoying watching you and your family. WATCHING IN MISSISSIPPI
I too am a Christian. I really enjoyed the video. And the most important thing is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. TFS
God bless!
Thank you! I love you both! What a blessed couple!!
I came here to learn more about the community. Thank you for the education. BUT... the elephant in the room... that ADORABLE puppy!!! So cute!!!!
Jehovah loves these people. Continue in Christ.
Thank you for sharing your belief and faith in Jesus Christ. This is the best explanation yet that I have heard of Mennonite faith and lifestyle. I can truly identify in your focus on mere Christianity. My mother used to say when we were growing up that her mother told her they were Pennsylvania Dutch. Our line of ancestors passes through Lancaster Co. Pennsylvania and my earliest DNA has origins around Switzerland. I think many true Christians will be surprised at how much we have in common. Thank you my brother and sister.
thank you for watching and sharing! Looking into one's background is always intriguing! God bless you as you serve Him!
Thankyou and I absolutely love the very ending of this. It's beautiful
God bless!
Amen! I loved watching this video! I am a Baptist Christian and love to listen and hear about others beliefs.
So far I have only heard TRUTH from you about faith. Thank you, my sister in Christ (and no, I am not mennonite) God Bless you.
thank you, God bless you!
Hi!!! I found you through Megan Fox, another Mennonite RUclips channel. I am from PA originally, and lived amongst Amish and Mennonite. I love that you are educating others!
thank you and welcome! honored to have you here!
Me too! I've always been very interested in Mennonites and Amish peoples. I don't know why because I don't know or have seen black Mennonites or Amish. Can black people be Mennonites or Amish ? Just a question. Never felt at home with other southern religions. Again, this is just me.
@@cottonballusno answer?
@@vernealeaton8830 Everyone is busy these days. I was acknowledged, but not answered. Usually if someone asks a question that is viewed as controversal or silly you get one of two responses. You get brow beat or a cordial response. I will guess at my answer and continue on. I still like the mennonite and amish peoples.
@@cottonballus i am a hutterite we are similar to mennonites and we allow anybody to join our colony. But most of the time they do not last, you almost have to be born into such a culture to truly understand it.
I found your channel and was excited to see you are from Newville, I live in Carlisle . There were some things I did not know about the Mennonite life style. Thank you for sharing your world.
Hello to Carlisle!
I'm so glad I found your channel. New subscriber here! Hearing about your faith in Christ only strengthens me as a believer. My family is Baptist, we are a step away from you folks in the faith, not sure of the differences or rather why we parted. However, as I was given my granddaughter to raise, she is 4 now, I wanted to join a Mennonite community bc of the community and spiritual covering it provides. I know it is not a cure all, but it seems better than just going to church and living apart from each other the rest of the week. I felt such a need to spiritually cover my granddaughter especially in this day n age. But God has provided a great Baptist church bc there aren't any Mennonite churches around here. You both are very blessed to be apart of such a great Christian heritage and following Christ. You have such a sweet spirit both of you do and your son I just want to give him squeezes and hugs he is so precious. I pray blessings and many loving years together for your family. Hugs and God bless you!
Thank you and I'm so glad you found a church that meets your needs. God bless!
I respect your open candor and bravery.
I am so pleased to hear your views. They are so much like mine. I am so saddened with self proclaimed Christians who denounce other life styles and faiths. We are ALL Gods children and he is so awesome that he is with us until the end and if we choose to go with him we can. He is so forgiving and loving. I absolutely love your spirit and think that you are giving the proper answers. Thank you.
thank you! Yes, we Christians do need to be careful that we do not become too amiable and not call sin, sin... however, when Christians attack people instead of sin... it is so sad. Jesus always loved.. the greatest of sinners, but he gently showed the Way... he was the harshest with the religious leaders which I find interesting and something we need to keep in mind. We can't let religion get between us and Jesus...
@@theMennoniteMom nailed it 👏👍❤
Kathy Ferrara We are Not All God's children but We are All God's Creation. You only are God's child by repenting (change of heart) and accepting the Lord Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. Thanks.
Kathy F, sorry but we All are not God's children. We are all His creation as the bible states, but you have to be born again before you are called His children. Please study God's word carefully before commenting.
@@MsCindy-qj3oh This comment has already been stated by me 3 days ago.
Thanks you for this! Seen a video of a group of Mennonite coming together during this time right now with everything going on. I never have heard of mennonites but have heard of Amish community, decided to look more into the difference every one was saying and this video gave me a very great insight of the Mennonite community! Love & Peace to you always ! God bless you ❤️❤️
thank you, and blessings to you!Thanks for watching!
Thank you. I loved your intro..I was in tears.
Your farm is beautiful! And you look lovely in modest, feminine clothing. Thanks for sharing. 🌷🌷
thank you!
Modestly used to be normal!
who decide what modest means ?
@@cinnamonstar808 Just curious, but...what do you think it means?
@@meadowlace is a question of culture, tolerant and longitude 🌎. For example, Im from a Caribbean island. anybody walk out in 90 degree weather in that out fit is "mad woman' and in Afghanistan she is slut.
In otherword: its incorrect to judge modest or declare onto anyone. Its an individual relationship, like you have with God.
Nakedness is not a perversion, the mind is.
which why I believe its an "individual" assessment.
For example: Bikini contest model and a Amazon tribe person are both wearing only strings and body paint. who is the modest one?
And if you coming from an Abrahamic faith. The question of who is "in" eden or beyond temptation.
ALOT OF PEOPLE MISS STRONG LESSONS IN THE BIBLE in the rush to control the behaviors of other.
and instead of becoming self-reflecting; they turn into philistines.
which breed endless denominations across the board in Christian, Muslim, Judaism faith.
▨ why is why I ask "who decides"
Because in my opinion: whomever decide what the answer is____; becomes a the new faith.
Well done. Beautifully said. Absolute statement about the price that was paid for us and this price reveals our worth. Just in case someone is wondering what they are worth. This says what our true value is.
thank you.
Wow! Thanks so much for sharing! So helpful & informative!
Interesting and informative video! . I respect the candor on the difficult questions. Thanks for posting!
thank you!
I have always been attracted to the Amish/Mennonite and doing genealogy of my family I found out my fathers ancestors were Of that faith and escaped religious persecution from Germany and and came to Pennsylvania, thank you for your video I want to learn more about this , subscribed!!!
you're welcome! Thanks for being here!
Thank you...I've learned something new and I'm catholic we have some beliefs in common...
I’m an evangelical Christian and was really delighted to find your channel. I appreciate your humility, honesty, and compassion that shines through your answers. Blessings to you and your family. You and your husband radiated the Light and Love of Christ truly!!
Hi Becca. Thank you so much and it's an honor to have you here! God bless you as you serve Him!
I just found your channel. What a blessing. This information has been delivered in such a wise way. Keeping Christ first is key. You made that clear in every answer. So well done!
thank you, and God bless!
Beautiful answers. I got saved living in the basement of my Mennonite friends. I was a little confused when I found out that their faith was private. After I got saved I couldn’t stop telling everyone anytime I found someone to listen. I’m a Baptist now, however the older I get I see the evils of tv and technology. Bless both of you for putting your faith out there. I think it really helps taking away the misunderstanding of the Mennonite religion. I’ve met some that I believe are born again and some that I wonder about. No different than other churches. I really respect the choices. I’ve often wondered how much easier serving the lord would be without technology to pull me away from my bible and conversation with one another!
Yes, technology can be such a downfall if we aren't careful! Interesting you lived with Mennonite friends! Faith shouldn't be a quiet thing. The Bible tells us to go and spread the good news! God bless as you serve Him!
Thank you for answering questions I would never have been able to politely ask. You are both charming. God bless.
you are welcome! thanks for watching!
Ohhhh my goodness - I thought this same thing!
I've always been so curious about Amish and Mennonite culture. Now that I think about it though I tend to be an 'info hound'! I really love learning new things. About religion & culture in particular.
Thank you for sharing!
I had lived for a short time in northern Indiana around many of Mennonites and Amish folks . A wonderful and informative video blessings be to you and yours .
I love watching you guys! Thank you for sharing your lives with us! I admire how you are honest and seems like you are so much fun! God bless!
aww, well thanks! Thanks for being here!
God bless you. I see things differently but. We are all children of God
