P.s. I love the unapologetics

Try a functional doctor. They are amazing…. They look at everything in your life & treat you from a viewpoint of finding the cause of the symptoms- not just treating symptoms. For example-Mine did hormone tests so she knew exactly which particular hormones were low rather than my other doctor just prescribing hormones.

Thank you for sharing your testimony. Praying you find a group of other people who love Jesus and love others with whom you can walk this path. ❤

I know exactly what you mean- people who really don’t know Jesus is alive can never understand. And people who don’t know Jesus profess Him as they do terrible things. Stay true- He is alive! No explaining it to those who don’t know Him. Thank you for honesty. I have a church- very very small & we love each other- love is not what the world thinks but rather wanting the very best for the one we love. Just keep open & God will bring you what you need.

Loooooove your earrings ❤❤❤

In a world where things are so out of control…. Hold tight to the solid rock of God! God is Good!

8 years of hot flashes?!?!?!?! Ugh, they just started up for me THIS MONTH (along with night sweats)... Yikes! Your JOY OF COLOR SCARF is looking great, btw! Still deciding what to do with my kit. Eek! Also GORGEOUS silk scarves! That purple one! Dreamy... 😍"I hope you love your life!" What a great sign-off. :) You too, GIna!!!! Great pics of Nantucket!

Thank you for sharing… it is an worthwhile vital journey 💕

Gina, while I am not a Christian, I am very intrigued (in a positive way) with your new journey. It doesn’t sound crazy at all to me. I would like to hear more. Those scarves and minis are to die for!❤❤

Good to see you again. I am happy you are feeling better and I hope you continue to feel better. The pairfect will bloom a bit. I had to use a 0.

Rejoicing with you, Gina! Wish I was there to sit and knit and talk about Jesus too!!

Totally get your Christian journey. “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” My over-educated family and friends want to look down on me for my crazy conviction that the Bible is all true. Oh well. It’s been 30 yrs and as their lives change, they start asking questions. Discernment is the deal. I don’t go to church, but I listen to a lot of great teachers, and I check with the word. Enjoy the love! Thanks!❤

Your journey to faith is really beautiful. I was raised in the Christian church and I had some near death experiences that showed me how present God is in my daily life as my creator, savior, and protector. As an adult, its definitely become more about faith than religion - I always say religion is mostly man made (man’s interpretation of God and specific “worship” practice) but faith is always just about what’s between an individual and God. I hate how Christians, especially in our country, have weaponized the religion. It’s a shame. But for me, knowing where I’m going when I die, and providing me a map (the Bible) in how to live as a moral person, is the best part. Loved hearing about your trips! Btw- are you doing Rhinebeck this year? Always love your podcast. ❤ and you. 😘

I made the Fallow sweater in a similar color combo! I love it. The scarf with your new palette is gorgeous. Loved Circe but loved Madeline Miller's other book Song of Achilles even more. I've been reading the past Pulitzer prize for fiction winners among others. Latest books I've loved Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan, Year of Wonders by Geraldine Brooks and Sandwich by Catherine Newman. I'm knitting a Pampas tee and a Peacock tee... and going to get back into Wool sweaters soon... thinking about Tanaka, Norma, and Oak Lane as possibilities for Fall knitting... I'm happy for you that your newfound relationship with Jesus is giving you comfort and peace. I'm a recovering Catholic ;).

I totally agree with you about having more than one book to read at a time. Currently reading Barbizon by Paula Brenn. It is non-fiction and I love it! Interesting!

Loved hearing your journey in Christianity and your relationship with Jesus. Sending Blessings to you.

May God continue to bless you and equip you with all you need to walk this journey with Jesus living in you.

You can always watch church online if you don’t feel comfortable going in person. Grace and peace to you, Gina.

I love your podcasts even more!!! Btw my hubby also recommended HOL too a couple of years ago

Enjoyed hearing about your journey in finding JC. I am so glad you and your family loved Nantucket as much as I do. We've been going there for years and it never disappoints. It is my church- I feel good there, it smells delicious and the salt water is very healing. So glad you are selling those gorgeous scarves! I love mine and wear it all the time (when it's not 100 degrees out.). Knitting the Spacetime Sweater right now by Heidi Kirrmaier using Sonder yarn. Kim- Happy Summer!

Glad he's revealed himself to you, but with a lifetime of trying and rule-following and guilt and shame for falling short. I am agnostic at best. Love your creations and book choices.

Praises and Congratulations!!! I’m so impressed that you are so willing to share your new relationship with Jesus on CZcams! As Christians we ALL should be willing to do so, but unfortunately we don’t. It’s hard! Your life will not be easier, as you have mentioned, and people will reject you. But the joy and benefits from knowing God will grow and grow…until one day you see him in heaven, face to face….eternally!!❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I was delighted to see you had a new episode today Gina! ☀️I am a Christian and loved hearing you share about your faith. I liked The Screwtape Letters. My most recent of his books is The Great Divorce. I liked it too. I finished the second sleeve on my sweater while watching. I say put that thin Regia sock to the side and save your fingers and knit something in your beautiful hand-dyed yarn.💖💜

I'm a Christian too (Anglican)! Thanks for sharing your faith. I loved the Screwtape letters by C.S. Lewis. When I read it last year, I made so many connections to today's world. Also, I love all of your knitting! Another great podcast.

Be very careful that Christianity does not make you judgemental n narrow-minded. Always keep searching. It's just a stage in your evolution

House of Leaves is one of the best books I've ever read . Don't give up keep reading

So glad to see you again.... love all your knits and yarn!!!! We dont go to church but I was told about this Church from a coworker we are about 4 hours away from it but he has sunday live on youtube but you can watch him at anytime. Just incase you would like a church. Old Paths Baptist Church Pastor Bob. He read from the King James Bible and he doesnt sugar coat anything about the Bible. Man i turn 58 and i had hotflashes for about 20 yrs but man oh man these hotflash now are crazy.... Hotflashes are for the birds... cant wait for your next video...

Praise Our Lord. You can bless so many souls .I will pray for you. Yes. The devil is also in this life....keep talking, in the name of. God

Honestly the best knitting podcast I’ve heard. The real story here.. lovely and refreshing . Bishop Barron.. oh he is wonderful. Please as a Catholic, I understand. We have been persecuted for so long. There is “evil” in many churches. I pray you give us, personally, a chance to understand we are not the Evil ones. We have a love for Jesus as His Mother whom He adored. Anyway, loved Virginia on our trip to see our daughter and then down to the OTX and over to Ocracoke! Loved loved the trip. Back home in Texas now. Be well, be blessed! I love Thistle and light Seafoam right now.

I'm not a Christian. I was raised as one and it just never made sense to me. I've always said that God is too big for one religion, but I respect people's beliefs as very important and personal. I am happy for you that you have a found a lovely new perspective. I know you're not one of them, but some Christians, "Christians?," in our country are downright terrifying, so I understand people's hesitancy. I am always relieved when I encounter people who are all about the love part, for real. I won't be unsubscribing because I like thoughtful discussions about belief. Also, I love that you read real books, if you know what I mean. --Kteba

What a beautiful testimony about finding your path to Jesus. You are a strong person to put it out there in a public forum. He gives us all trials, losing friends, etc. I wish you all the best on your journey. I am on my own journey as well. 😘. I lok forward to your podcast with Catie.

Hey Gina! Nice to see you. I am 54 and grew up an atheist like most Australians. God found me during Covid when I found myself working in a really bad neighborhood in south LA following a very boujee career in finance. It took me a while to get used to my situation but it is undeniable god was with me the whole time and is still with me every day. I’m happy about it. My mum is disgusted- and that’s her problem. They weren’t there, they didn’t see, they didn’t experience what I did, so in my mind they don’t get to judge. I’m happy for you. ❤

Just watched your latest video and was mesmerized listening to your testimony. I was raised in the Christian church but as an adult had struggled with my faith and believing. Don't want to make this super long but after a life changing event 16 years ago, my faith went out the window and I felt abandoned by God if He did exist. Then 4 years ago an event happened that could only have come thru God. Looking back during the 12 years of doubt and struggle, I realized God had been growing me, making me stronger and a better person, enabling me to truly appreciate the BLESSING that was in store for me. I now live in amazement every single day. I love seeing all the yarny things and travel chat, but this episode really struck a cord. Thank you for sharing that journey. ( and sorry, this did end up super long)

Gina! I love you!

If you are enjoying Catholic theologians like Bishop Barren, you may enjoy books by Father Jacques Philipe

This was an amazing visit with you. The knits and yarn were amazing and I’m kicking myself for not jumping on the yak/Suri summer special. Next time. The Christianity journey is an interesting one. While I totally believe, I don’t feel I need a specific church to go to every Sunday. I try to apply the teachings I had early on every day. I’ve been disappointed by churches along the way. I’m good enjoying my own path. Stay on your path! 38:25

Thankyou Gina love your knits and you made me laugh with “the devils got my throat” 😂, being spiritual it’s a personal thing and I appreciate your story I had the same sort of upbringing and I’m looking into that book now ❤😊

I always love your videos. Love the scarves.

Love this podcast! Praying for you and your faith journey. Surly hope to meet you in person. Looking forward to purchasing more of your yarn!!!🧶

So good to catch your podcast. Love the knits, the yarn, and your testimony. Share it all! I agree that church can be hard to get into but the way I see it is pastors are humans and as Capable of sin as anyone. You’d like to think they’d somehow be closer to God and better, but they’re human. Knowing that has helped me be able to trust again. Blessings to you!

I started reading the bible this year. I had tried this in the past, but could never get past all the violence, punishment, and anger in the Old Testament. I have made it through Ezekiel, so I'm almost through it! I can't wait to start the New Testament and read about Jesus. After the frightening God of the Old Testament I think Jesus will feel amazing. Thank you for sharing Gina. It's quite the journey this life we lead.

So good you are happy in Jesus!

Those striped socks… absolutely beautiful!! Thank you for sharing 🌈

I'm so glad you found Jesus, reading the Bible every morning is good way to start the day, start with Matthew. I really enjoy listening about your travels and your scarves are beautiful and unique. Stay blessed

Bless you on your journey. Please take the time to check out the podcasts by Elevation Church. Pastor Furlick has been on vacation but he'll soon be back. I can't tell you all that it means to me because I don't do church rules over spiritual relationships.

Loved your video!

Gina, you are very brave to post this. I support you in your journey, mine was similar to yours. Yes, you will find people that you thought were true blue friends, and all along they were not. A true friend will not leave you, desert you, cancel you. A true friend will support you, lift you up. Just remember that. To quote Billy Joel (find people of all kinds who) "love you just the way you are!" Hugs.

Loved this podcast. You are one of my favs on CZcams. Jesus Christ is real and He does live and knows each and every one of us and loves us in spite of the choices we make in life. I am so grateful for His willingness to suffer so tragically because of His love for us. I too read more than one book at a time and judge books by their covers, at least that is what grabs my attention first (thanks for all the great recommendations) and I have multiple knit wips in progress too. And yes, CS Lewis is a genius! Love that you are so honest and genuine. Can't wait to watch your next podcast with Catie.

What a great video! So happy for you and your Christian journey. Life has more joy and more purpose ❤ I enjoyed the vacation videos, knits, yarn- everything! I’m knitting on Squared by Beata Jezek and planning to pick up a copy of The Hotel Nantucket 😘

I have enjoyed watching you over the years and seeing you grow spiritually. You can speak about Jesus if you want to. He is good. ❤
