So much family estrangement is going on and it is worldly indoctrination. It is satanic and young people don't realize it because they are not Christians.

I was catching up on the podcasts & I love where the series is going. But as I was listening to this one, I got caught on a snippet of “advice to wives” that just didn’t sit right. You mentioned that when a husband makes a decision, the wife is essentially “off the hook” if the decision was a wrong one to make. When we read scripture, and particularly New Testament Acts 5 tells the story of man who made the wrong decision, in which his wife followed in his direction & she too fell to her death upon the lie. I don’t want to come off the wrong way because I agree with a lot of the advice you share- but God never asks us women to follow in the poor decisions of our husbands. We are to be faithful & serve as wives but our council & our character must stay aligned with God’s will. ❤️

MISS YOU GUYS. PRAYING FOR YOU

Clearly none of these commments are from people who actually listened to the full podcast episode lol. This is actually a very plausible explanation.

Relatable!

Can’t wait to listen to this podcast!!

Where is your shirt from!!

Awe, I miss seeing your mother in vlogs. I used to think what a beautiful multigenerational (& bilingual!) family with her helping around with the kids.

lol two minutes 😅

Such a needed conversation, so hard at times . God is able to do wonders . We should use wisdom always . Ultimately trust God as we navigate healing .

I was listening to ginger on 89.9 fm here in Australia 🇦🇺

I love my parents and I forgive them. I honored my parents with my behaviour, with my grades, getting married and then having children, I obeyed them while I was still under their domain. They were very abusive in a psycological way and sometimes physically. They are very hurtful with their words not only towards me but towards my husband and my mom has said some hurtful things about one of my boys. I don't have any recentment. However I can't have a close relationship with my mom and allow her to be hurtful towards my family or feel like I have to walk on eggshells and put my self in a stressfull situation everytime I am around her because she might start shouting, saying bad words, gossiping and getting mad if I don' agree with her and start gossiping back and not because I am being selfish but because I need to keep and guard my husband's, children's and my heart. I pray for their salvation and I take everyrhing to the feet of our saviour. I allow them to see my children but I have become very firm with my Dad about what he cam say to me and my family and I don"t have a relationship with my mom.

Can someone explain to me a little more in depth about when she says “the curse isn’t activated yet”, I get in but kinda don’t. Does it say it somewhere in the bible? I need more info plz!! Lol

What they are talking about is not “gentle parenting” that is “permissive parenting”. Many people confused both them and then discredited Gentle Parenting.

These studies are so amazing. Watching them the second time now and really study parrallelly

Hi my brother and beautiful sister in Christ. I first want to thank you both for your obedience to the Lord and just being a blessing to my life. Melina I literally watch every video of yours and each one is such a blessing you encourage me so much as a stay home mommy for 4 as we both are so thank you sooo much. Praise Jesus and I pray He continues to bless and cover your family and I pray more wisdom to the both of you.. I did have a question.. I loved loved loved your series on Nephilim well I don’t think the series was named Nephilim but you talked about them and a lot about how you do read the apocrypha and I absolutely love that because honestly these pass 3 years of me and my husbands walk with the Lord we have not encountered literally anyone who is even open to reading the apocrypha so yea back to my question. Have yous ever drove into who are the real Hebrew Israelíes are? In the apocrypha 2 Esdras 13 we read that God sent a group of them to an unknown land called Arzareth.. they obviously multiplied.. now when we do our research as God tells us we should we know that the land Christopher Columbus discovered that was unknown was originally called Arzareth.. Literally the whole half of the world all the islands and countries that are not mentioned in the Bible because nobody knew or lived there.. Christopher Columbus went to every island and country that and persecuted tormented killed and enslaved all the people on these unknown lands.. there are history to prove that. And He made the people catholicism and he also send many on ships to Spain to be slaves He gave them all a new language because they all spoke Hebrew. We know this because we know Christopher Columbus had a Hebrew translator on the mayflower boat with him.. then he obviously took the oil and gold and diamonds from all the islands and countries and renamed them all.. also when we read Deuteronomy and Jeremiah and read about the curses upon God’s chosen people due to their disobedience of course we read that the Israelites men will be boasted prideful men and they will work but hardly see the profit they will not have time for their children and the women will be miserable and bitter and I just can see any Jews of the world today fixing that lifestyle.. I do see Hispanics and African American peoples lives like that though and they background history allll have to do with their land being rated and their people being killed and forced into catholicism. So yea I know that it doesn’t matter who are the true chosen tribe because of our Savior we all are called chosen but I do believe it is necessary and very important to know the truth because we know that the Lord says He will not return until His people realize who they are and come back to His laws and statues.. so if we know this then so does the enemy so I’m not surprised if the enemy literally deceived and manipulated the world to believe that the Jews of this world are the chosen people when really it’s the complete opposite. Thanks for taking the time to read my comment God bless you both 🩷🙏🏼

So so good. I'm currently in a season where I needed to hear this. Thank y'all for being obedient to Christ and sharing this.

Amen!

everyone is so glued to the tube. it's sad seeing young kids addicted to screens

Enjoyed the video. :) Would you be able to attach any peer-reviewed, reputable research that you used to support the discussion? I am writing a paper about the downsides/possible harms of peer-centred learning and curriculum and was hoping to use some of that research to support my paper!! Thank you so much

Respectfully, without sharing your own personal story on this…I don’t think this is a good topic for you to speak on. Because in all honesty, it does not sound like you had a truly toxic dynamic with your parents. It just sounds like run of the mill butting heads as you grew older. Some people genuinely are dealing with dysfunctional dynamics (emotional incest, being forced out of the family for wanting to raise their kids without the unhealthy dynamic, manipulation, gaslighting, codependency, slander, etc). And while yes, our goal should always be to seek peace and healing…Milena was very tone deaf in this episode. Usually love all your takes, and I agreed with a lot of what you said (especially about taking guidance from scripture, not other people). But I don’t think you fully grasp the pain that leads to some people being estranged from family.

CAN I PLEASE LIKE THESE VIDEO 10000000000 times?????? ❤

Wow, this really changed the way I think! I always thought it’s like a developmental stage when kids cling tight unto their friends of same age. It’s a good reminder that it hasn’t always been like this, and in many parts of the world teen age years are not a period of rebellion against your parents. THANK YOU for really challenging my world view - I’ve started questioning so many things due to your podcasts and videos!

It's both interesting and heartbreaking how many in the comments are asserting the Bible isn't Truth and God doesn't exist. Especially with reference to lack of evidence. If one actually has an interest to study or do the research, they'll find an abundance of historical, analytic and scientific evidence supporting a Creator, the integrity of the Bible, and the existence, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is impossible to prove God and the Bible untrue, so not only are these arguments hypocritical in nature because they make their own supposition of truth (i.e. God doesn't exist, the Bible is not the Word of God), but they're also hypocritical because they cannot prove their version of the truth either. They make ultimate statements as if their truth has been proven- personal feelings attempting to be fact. I know this often comes from personal pain inflicted by a Christian misrepresenting Christ or bias inherited in some other misrepresenting circumstance. Rather, if research were paired with a softened heart and genuine pursuit of the truth, what they would discover is our Creator and loving Father, who gave us His Word so we could know Him and live life abundantly. Knowing the Lord and learning from His Word has only ever brought me stability, purpose and peace. It is the solid rock on which I stand, the joy that sustains, and the wisdom and strength to deal with any complicated or confusing situation this life has thrown at me. I have tested life without it and searched for goodness in alternatives. Not only did I not find value there, but I suffered and caused suffering to others in the process. When you know God, you know there is nothing more life-giving than His love, His guidance and the plans He has for us. Why would I not want that for my children? We are all teaching our children something. I will absolutely teach them what I know leads to a life filled with love, meaning, fulfilment, and ultimately eternity spent with Jesus in perfect peace. Evidence provided not only through personal experience, but through historical, scientific, analytic and widespread testimonial evidence. If I look to where this evidence leads- Jesus as the Way, the Truth and the Life- but then withhold Him from my children, how can I really love them or want the best for them?

Girl!! Keep preaching to us sisters!! Let those who have hears to hear some truth; let them hear!! It’s called wisdom!! 🫰 🫰 🫰

Yall r going to get so much push back for this video but i am so proud of u for doing it anyway. Our generation is as bad as the LGBTQ thing. Because it feels like if out parents do things differently then what we want its cut off time. I say like the LGBTQ because large groups of people cheer u on for doing something that is just wrong. Of course not if there r serious issues

Thank u for talking about this. I don't have the best parents but would not put such horrible restrictions on my parents to not see their grandchildren again. There r others ways. Of course not if horrific things happened. But if they don't respect my boundaries u can always be there for my parents and children visits. If they r crossing boundaries then say well were going to have to head out ect

So this guy doesn’t want to get married cause he thinks financially it’d be a net lost for him

It’s so easy to say, when you’re already married

I had a chemical pregnancy . The hard part was people not thinking my positives were positive. I had multiple friends look and they saw what I saw. Days later I bled. I believe it just wasn’t time and God has a plan

This video is very timely. I'm currently pregnant and going through a really difficult time in my relationship with my mom. I pray for redemption ❤🙏

This has helped me so much guys! I really needed to hear this! I was suffering for so long wondering what was wrong and what was right…. Thank god you guys have opened my eyes. Can you do more of these videos about parenting.

I have desperately needed direction on this topic so badly, thank you praise God for delivering through your podcast!! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and direction towards Christ with such humility, empathy, and tenderness to a sensitive subject. My whole family are atheists and I have a severed relationship with my dad who was abusive as I grew up, but still also did a lot of good things for the family by providing and teaching me hard work, These things most often are never, ever black and white and contain a complex element that makes it difficult to navigate especially as we are older and struggle with consequences of our childhood/trauma. I think the easy way out is to create a hard boundary and cut people out of your life to avoid digging into the icky mess of emotions and hurt from the past, but that truly is where I believe Jesus, love, and raw humility lie. If we pray for His strength and guidance to carry us through there is way to still honor our parents and handle relationships in a Christ like manner. You can have boundaries but still honor others; they are not mutually exclusive in my opinion. Pray for blessings and protection over your beautiful family <3

I would love to know your thoughts of Christian educators working in public schools. We're not teaching Christian children necessarily so is it fine to teach the way of the world as a Christian?

The HUGE factor that you’re missing is what’s developmentally appropriate and what’s not. God created our brains and children do not have fully developed brains. For example impulse control, emotional maturity, etc etc. It is not sinful for a child to fall to the ground because they are upset. Understanding development is key. You’ve missed this and are blanketing everything under the umbrella of sin. Ironic.

How can you say to keep your father at arm’s length after they have sexually assaulted and raped you, and my mother allowing so much abuse all my life and also physically and verbally abusing me, for the sake of honor?? Even being in their presence haunts me and gives me nightmares every night. Can I just forgive them (which I already have) and protect the family that I have now from them?

My friend went through Ivf twice and it didn’t work so she was just in for a bigger heartbreak ❤️‍🩹

This made me wonder what scripture says about how Jesus dealt with criticism because my mother is very critical of how I’m raising my children. I then get very defensive because her parenting was very flawed and she speaks about how I should be teaching things that she never did with us. I get protective over them as well which can make me aggressively fight back. I truly need to study this. Thank you

❤❤

Omg the church kids were the ones who were freaky 😂 at least back when I was a kid you’d hear youth group stories.

Cmonnnn👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥 love it

I completely agree! We need the Holy Spirit to guide us towards what is best for our children and to keep their minds and hearts in the Word of God to stand strong in the full armour of God against mind control and indoctrination that is used by satanic agendas. Amen! 🙏

Very cool series!!❤

I needed to hear this. Thank you so much for covering this hard topic and speaking on it and pulling from scripture.

Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s all a work in progress for everyone. We don’t have all the answers but what you showed me today is that all my answers are in his Word! Through continual prayer and seeking his wisdom and not our own 👏🏻

I have to disagree with some of this. Abuse comes in many forms other than physical. My parent has personality disorders and I’ve given this parent many chances only for them to falsely call the police on me, try to kill my dog, drain my bank account, and change the locks on me all at the same time so my sister and I were homeless. I forgave this parent and years later they then threatened to take me to court for my children if I didn’t let them see my baby. Never said I wouldn’t but after that for my sanity and safety I cut ties. That’s only a portion of it. I will say I did take away that maybe I can honor my parent by not telling people what happened who know that parent.

Milena! Is this an Amazon dress? I need it; it’s so beautiful ❤

3 But know this, that in the last days difficult times will come, 2 for people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 hardhearted, irreconcilable, slanderous, without self-control, savage, with no interest for what is good, 4 traitors, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God, 5 maintaining a form of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid these people 2 Timothy 3:1-5

This is exactly what my husband and I are going through. We been through a divorce and got remarried and been on the break of divorce, and now we are working on rebuilding again through God.

My mother has struggled with alcoholism and for many years she hurt me emotionally. After I had my son I knew I had to create a boundary to protect my mental health. I stopped talking to her, stopped reading the texts and didn’t engage. I prayed over her weekly for those years and by the grace of God she’s doing so much better. This doesn’t mean she and I have a mother/daughter relationship but I can invite her to family events without worrying something bad will happen.
