About 6 years ago I was literally laying naked on a cold cement jail cell floor withdrawaling from heroin. I spent a week in that state and I got through it singing your songs. From the time I discovered you in high school to modern day being a recovering addict and mom, your songs have given me a wonderful way to to connect and praise the Lord. I genuinely thank you for that. You are such an incredible singer and an astounding song writer.
I'm a straight, 57 year old white rural guy who grew up in a family of believers. I found your music a really long time ago before you came out and I was blown away. I fell in love with your music and you as a person. I wasn't really aware of your coming out when it happened, or aware of how you were treated by "believers" because of it. All I knew was that I loved you and nothing would change that. But I can't understand why anyone would change their mind about you, or how they could have claimed to love you and then reject you? My opinion on the gay/straight topic is my opinion and it doesn't have any effect on how I treat people, respect people or choose to associate with them. We all have the same rights and we also all have the same responsibility to respect the rights of others. Keep being you Jennifer, I'll always be a fan of you and your music. God Bless You.
Your music carried me through many dark days. You'll always be one of my favourite artists. I saw you live many years ago in Portland, Oregon. Much love.
Jenn thanks for a life changing performance, i first saw a live show of you at a small church i forget the exact location i used to have a poster, and another concert when you were opening up for jars of clay and the newsboys, i begged my friends to save their money so we could go and see you, and your show was amazing, your songs were nothing but comfort to me after i lost my grandfather, id sit in my room and blast undo me and scream at the top of my lungs until i lost my voice, and i thought god hated me so much that he just wanted to see me in pain, whatever the reason years later i shed my snakeskin of a mask and stopped believing the lies i was telling myself, im an atheist now and by my own choice, when you came out about being a lesbian i couldnt but could believe how disrespectful the quote children of god werent receptive of it, it dosent matter, whatever god or no god that made everything including us, if he had so much love would ever condemn like that. I guess i just wanted to say thank you, im almost 40 now i started listening to your music in my early 20s and i still love every song youve ever wrote, thank you for writing Undo Me and Breathe On Me, there were days i felt useless unless i played them and had a good cry, keep being you and never change a thing girl.
You are my favorite female singer songwriter of all times! I got to see you in Houston, TX at the Woodlands Amphitheatre 2nd row and I was in heaven. You have an awesome voice and love your acoustic guitar playing. Your lyrics sing to my soul as if you have known me forever. A true blessing to me. A loyal fan on a journey with you.
It's my dream to one day own the Chicago Bears. Upon taking ownership of the Bears, my first move will be to announce the artist who will sing the national anthem at the season opener, and that artist -- if she says yes -- is the incomparable Jennifer Knapp!
side note, streaming live on twitch even playing replays of your performances can be very useful, you can leave a schedule in your twitch description saying when you will be live to sing or just chat with the fans. its better than youtube and facebook in my opinion.
Just came across your 2017 album on Apple music. I hadn't really kept track of your work in over 10 years and then...whoa! Love this new Jenn! So, what about gear nerd stuff? Insight into your writing/ recording process...As an acoustic fan, it would be nice to see how other artists are laying down demos or whatever. Just a thought
Set Me Free, was the best album ever. It helped me so much during that time of my life. And Love Comes Back around. Perfect. I loved those albums so much. I want to hear a new album and I know it will be great. I still keep tabs on J. Knapp, because I know that she will continue to put out good music.
First! I know the aesthetic of the guitar room is a thing, but I think it'd be nicer to be flanked by 2 guitars and have you closer to the microphone than flanked by 4 and you sounding like you're two rooms away. Long time fan, excited about your Patreonning!
Dear Jennifer, so sorry seeing you like this. You´re so gifted. And you were such a blessing for me and many others back then when you still fought against sin and impurity and tried to figure everything out with the help of Jesus Christ. You had the strongest message and your songs true meaning. But you have given into lust and sin instead of being open about your real struggles. I´m so sorry you didn´t choose living through it with the help of the Lord our highpriest who knows all of our temptations. Pray you repent, will be born again and live for Christ. It´s not too late. You´re life would be of eternal value. You still have a kingdom to gain...
How dare you judith, or maybe we should call you judas, youre not her god, judge jury, or executioner, stfu and deal with your own sin, dont ever throw stones when you live in a glass house.
Wow, just embracing the lesbian lifestyle. So sad to see. However I can understand that the church has a real way of turning people off of living For God.
@@AaronSaltzer Christian faith is based on facts delivered witnesses. Their testimony is passed on in the Bible. If one doesn´t have a "traditional view" of the Bible, someone doesn´t have the Christian view but his/her own made-up belief based on personal feelings towards right and wrong. Nothing could be more far-out from truth.
@@judithbatke3169 no one is right on everything. Neither do we know everything. As long as we’re alive, we have the ability to learn new things. Just because something’s traditional, doesn’t make it correct.
@@AaronSaltzer just because it´s tradition doesn´t prove it wrong. And in case of truth about the eternal God everyone should be humble enough to learn from the first believers and fathers of faith.
@@judithbatke3169 a lot of the early church fathers were heretics, so we can’t always go by what they thought: www.wayoflife.org/database/church_fathers_a_door_to_rome.html. There are numerous denominations of Christianity and they don’t all believe the same thing so no one is better than the other. The fact that there have been numerous translations that don’t always agree on everything proves that. Everyone interprets The Bible differently so we shouldn’t believe something just because someone else does. We should go by what we believe God is showing us through his word. The good things that happen in our lives as a result we know are from God. The bad things that happen are from his enemy.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that message... you can't "love" a person based on what seems fitting to you. You love a person for their soul connection, which by the way, evolves (yours, mine, hers, everyone's?). Perhaps you meant "like", instead of "love".

Handwritten letters ? Excited to see what you're coming up with!
one of the best writers of our time ! please do a song with me :-)
Michael Burnz, I hope she gets back to you! Your music is also AMAZING
@@QuincyDisneyVeganayyy thanks fam. from your mouth to her ears 😎 I been a fan since Kansas. U vegan? I'm vegetarian with vegan tendencies lol
Hey Jennifer I'm a big fan going back to the late 90s I got a question for you ....have you ever thought about doing a gospel album of Elvis music i?
Jennifer's music is quite beautiful. I came across Jewish Messianic alliance Israel on u- tube, very nice.

i met her back in 1998 maybe when she did alive fest in ohio was kinda cool
Why is it when I fast forward through the video I can see you, but when I play it normally I can’t? Odd.
That's because you're an awesomely imperfect person viewing a fellow like-minded imperfect sister in Christ through an imperfect lens.
What in the Demi Levato happened to this girl?

Why don’t you seek why not everyone holds a traditional view of The Bible instead of assuming the worse?

What's with the hair? Should we now hear about your views on gender identity? You're losing me as a fan!
Not to worry - her LGBTQ Faith stuff has gained me as a fan 🤗
Sexual orientation doesn't modify the value as a person. Maybe she loses you as a fan, but you lose as a human being.
@@fridaa.l.2191 Well said.
