You are truly the face of Tony and Lois, Chrystal sealed that statement by hosting your Dads wife in such a warm Godly way. Carla i do exactly what you do, watching all Tony Evans and Priscilla's sermons, wish i can watch live every sunday. Love from South Africa
Congratulations to Dr, Tony Evans and Carla Crummie. Manys blessings to you both.
Continued prayers for Pastor and Sis. Carla Evans. May God's richest and best be yours ❤🙏
Yes, Amen me too
This interview is so admirable. Crystal welcoming her future step-mom on the platform created by her own fairly recently deceased mother is beyond commendable. The loss is still fresh and the natural emotions are evident in her voice but God has given her strength. What a magnanimous heart.
This interview was a year ago.
This is such a beautiful video . Carla is about to become Crystal’s stepmom! You can see that they are having a kind loving , Godly exchange !
I’m a widow of two years and I was married to my husband for 30 years and 30’days he went to glory 30 days after receiving a heart transplant on our 30 year wedding anniversary. I want to be helpful to other widow’s who need that extra TLC because I know what is like to,sit in my home all by myself from having to adjust to my new normal. Thanks you for sharing your journey with us ❤❤❤
I'm a widow now as well, my husband passed away in February 2022 from COVID. We were married for 31 years.
Grief share is a great ministry. I went through it twice after my mother transitioned to heaven.
I have been praying for the Evans family, and I have begun praying for Sister Carla, her adult children and her father.
I have a heart for widows and the ladies at my church whose husbands are gone, I reach out once every two months via text to let them know they are loved by daddy God and me. Sometimes daddy has me send a scripture, a poem, whatever He tells me. It is a blessing showing love and care for these precious women who are experiencing a new normal in their lives!
This interview has given me additional things to do. I don’t cook but can treat one sister at a time to a meal.
So thankful for this interview!
Crystal you ask such thought provoking open ended questions. I truly admire this about you!
Love,
Ms. Pat
Loved this interview!! Love Dr. Crummie's spirit!! She seems so caring and loving. Congratulations on Pastor Evans and Dr. Crummie's engagement!!🎊🎉 This seems like a perfect match and I wish you both a lifetime of pure happiness!!❤
I just want to thank you both for addressing us widows.
God's heart is so strong for widows, but few churches have ministries in place for widows.
After my husband's transition over a year and a half ago, God led me to facilitate a GriefShare Widows Ministry at the church I attend.
My husband was a minister. His long-term illness changed how he did ministry.
He shared the Gospel consistently throughout his time in the nursing home.💝
Thank you for allthe ideas.
I pray more churches will step up and care for their widows, orphans, and strangers. 🙏🏽✝️💞
May God continue to bless you more snd more. 💕🫂😘
My dad was a pastor and passed away in 2000. My mom was widow up until her passing in 2021. I hope that this BEAUTIFUL ministry is implemented in as many churches as possible & hope the doors are open for the PKs as well 🙏🏽🙌🏽✝️
Congratulations to Dr. Tony Evans and Carla Crummie. I wish you many blessed years of happiness. I, too, am a widow of 5 years. Within the last year, I have been praying for a spouse and patiently waiting to see if it is God's will.
I believe I heard this at grief share, and it stuck with me: Your marriage is over because of death, but the journey of your life isn't. PTL for his faithfulness.
Congrats to Dr. Evans and Dr. Crummie.
Carla is such a sweet person! This was very helpful! I've been in ministry for a while but learned more in 45 minutes about taking care of widows then all of the years in ministry, thank you.
Yes she is a wonderful person inside and out. She is my cousin and I am very proud of her!!
I was literally just telling someone how I'm grateful to have seen this conversation. I too have learned alot about caring for widows and think that Dr. Carla is amazing! The entire Evans family is stellar and I'm glad she'll be one of them soon.💞
@@carmen81473 Ms. Carla is awesome
She does seem sweet. Praying for her and Dr. Evans.
This interview helped me as I am a widow of four years. The take away that I got was losing the priest of my home. Also, my husband's covering. He was my husband for 43 years. I still miss him. The couples we were friends with, look at you differently. The part about cutting the lawn and other duties which he performed. My faith was tested and I was upset that God took him from me. I can now say I have turned the page. God has been with me the entire time. He has mended my broken heart.
I am glad I saw this interview as I was a little confused when Dr, Crummie and Dr Evans got engaged. This interview helped me to get to know her better. I held Dr. Lois Evans in high esteem. Life goes on and people do too.
Thank you so much for this program. It helps to know that someone cares🙂
I have attended that program at least five times since July 2019 (loss of forever 30 year old son)
Now healing victoriously during loss of pastor-husband of forty years.
Wow .... if you don't see God's hands in this situation, then you are truly BLIND and Ignorant ...... God is so strategic, and his timing so PERFECT ... despite suffering great loss, God had a plan, and we are literally watching it unfold before our very own eyes ... Congratulations to Dr. Tony Evans and Dr. Carla Crummie. ❤
Thank you for this. I have been a widow since 42 and I am now 65. God has kept me in my widowhood and singleness. It has not been easy and I am seeing this after the engagement announcement of Carla with your precious dad, Tony Evans. I wished that I had seen this earlier. This is such a precious lady. If she keeps this ministry I hope to hear from her again. It is so hard today to be a widow. I have raised 2 children and it has been quite lonely at times, but God always sends help!!! Keep living on the widows and orphans and singles!!!
You are so intentional Chrystal and unique. I enjoy your podcasts. I am getting ideas that I may be able to help other widows. Thanks!! I am going to look up grief share and see if I can find help for myself in this area. The best is yet to come for all of us!!!🙏 ❤
Congratulations to Dr. Evans and
Carla Crummie. 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
Congratulations to Dr Carla and our beloved pastor! Blessings to them in their days ahead as one!❤

Thankyou 🙏 Crystal and Sister Carla. As a Widow Holidays is always a lonely time empty feeling under the smiles!!!!! Continuing to Care for those in need bringing Hope to others But sometimes I do need it just being genuine love of Christ fills void most of time a reminder is always there!!!!!! Grieving not easy as a wife loosing her best friend!!!!! This was so needed not a accident!!!! Thankyou so much!!!!! God Bless 🙏
You are AWESOME Carla. May GOD continue to bless you.❤
Much needed ministry…Spreading kindness! Thank you!
This is so beautiful and a necessary conversation 👏🙏🏾. Thank you!
Praise Jesus am saved this morning praising my savior all days of my life am widow for 10years
It really blesses my heart to hear such discussions pertaining real life situations. Although I am thousands of miles away but the struggles that most Pastors' widows go through is just too much; may the LORD God have mercy upon me and us.
God bless you Dr. Carla for the sweet heart and many thanks to you Sister Chrystal for hosting her. Ever praying for you both and Evans family; love you lots ❤❤❤
As a recent widow, I thank you both for this video. You touched on a lot of important points. Thank you! 🙏🏾
Your family is a blessing to me. Such warm emotions to see the respect and love and unity your family share 💕 now , congratulations to Your father and beautiful bride to be. So beautiful to see the family acceptance of a new added family member, peace be still……. 🙏 ❤️ 💕 🙏
Congratulations to Dr Tony Evans and his fiancé Dr Carla Crummie. May their union be blessed and God do great things through them, for His glory.
I came across this interview this morning 🇬🇧 time. It was on the eve of the sixth anniversary of my husband's passing. We were married for 33 years. His death rocked mine and my children's world, as he died on our daughter's birthday.
I'm glad for sis Carla's finding love again. Saw the video of hers and Pastor Evans' engagements. announcements
God bless them
Thank you! She "Pastor's Wife" is mentioned in 1 Timothy 2; She is part of 1 Timothy 3:1-7,11. Titus 1:7-9; 2:1-8, the whole 2nd chapter. First Peter 3:1-7 The Word is in- exhaustible with knowing what each of us should do concerning godliness and the Righteousness of Christ‼️(2 Timothy 3:12-17)☦️ 📖 ✝️ 👏🏽
Wow! Such an insightful and inspiring conversation. Thank you both for the realism and candidness you shared.
Such great tips on things I have never considered. Unfortunately we do overlook widowers in so many ways. This was very helpful to hear the recommendations on how we can be more mindful and inclusive.
The dinners were not in the same year. 2021 and 2023 valentine dinner
❤Good 🌄 morning! Such a wonderful video. This has helped me so much today to broaden my prospective on this matter. My spiritual eyes have been open today. Miss Chrystal thank you for all you do and Congratulations Miss Carla on your engagement!
Much love from the parents poured into their children 👏👏👏 Great legacy
God bless her!
Thank you sooo much!!!
Also allow the pastors widow to continue to use her gifts in the church if she feels up to it rather than saying, “you are no longer a pastor’s wife now”. Sometimes serving can also be therapy for the pastors widow.
Great wealth of information and transparency. This must have been difficult 🙏🏾
Awesome insight, I have a group of elderly Ladies but I didn't think of having a widows group or events.
Congratulations . This is an amazingly awesome channel. I wish my spouse had such kindred spirit and I not have me on eggshells 24 of 30 days of the month for 3..5 years. I met her in ministry school . She is a widow also of 9 years ago. The mistake that I made was to not marry someone who was still in place. Christian or not. Unfortunately I gotta go because I don’t want to leave not knowing that I did not do what God told me to do. I ask that you keep me lifted in prayer. God bless.
God bless you both always.
My husband passed away suddenly in a pastor conference in Korea. He has gone from India to attend the conference. When he was playing in the sea in the free hours suddenly died because of cardiac arrest.
I go through the path of tears. He was a pastor in a small village in South India.
I want to help the Indian widows. I am praying for that. Suddenly I saw in u tube today. If I get any any source to help them . If God's will I want ur counseling. Thank u.
GOD is good!!!
Take her shopping and love on her dad praise God 💝
Congratulations 🎉❤
Just be there to listen to what the person has to
Very helpful messages and insights - I am sure. A little part of me can't help wondering though if this video was made before or after Chrystal knew that Carla was finding comfort in being a widow, through her very own father - Tony Evans. Anyway let me not get messy - even though this clearly was. I pray that all involved can heal and find peace and can find happiness and can be a good, Christian example of forgiveness, love, spiritual growth and peace
❤
❤❤❤
wonderful broadcast. What platform are these 2 beautiful ladies using? There’s no speech delay or tech malfunctioning throughout the entire time. Any know, pls???
Looks like streamyard
❣️❣️❣️
How long was Dr Cummie married? Does she have children?
she has two children.. she was married for a long time before her husbands passing
Love your parents ❤ would love to talk pastors wives & healing from divorce as that is my story.
Published a book for HER on finding true WHOLENESS after divorce called “THE SUN ALWAYS PIERCES THROUGH”
What is TUA?
It stands for the urban alternative
Chrystal your father is fixing to get married why are you still talking about your Mom ministry she's gone she has had her chance to shine so stop beating up on your stepmom by talking about your Mom Lois Evans was a woman of God but Carla Evans is just as good as Lois she is a very intelligent woman educated beautiful woman that loves the Lord you need a man to love on you the word on the streets I that your husband doesn't try you right so that why you so busy into your father life trying to make Carla jealous but you needs to work on yourself and fix your self up and buy new clothes and take care your needs because your stepmom looks younger than you
Edibles 😂😂😂😂😂
