- I'm excited to welcome the most incredible man I know as my first guest-my husband, Drew. Today, we're sharing our journey of how a two-week connection turned into a forever thing. From Drew's testimony and our long-distance relationship to breakups and being unequally yoked, we'll discuss how God saved and transformed us every step of the way.

Thank you so much beautiful! May God bless you and keep you 🤍
i'm convinced ya'll were living in a 90's early 2000's black romance movie😭😭😭it's really giving love and basketball, the bronx with God added
BEST COMMENT EVER! Love & Basketball was my entire personality when I was a teenager 😭😭 and his parents are from the Bronx! You are spot on sis 😂🤍
@@growingthroughitpod What's Drew's views on reparations?
@@DrUmarJohnson1Keep it moving!!🙄🙄
@@DrUmarJohnson1Umar, are we taking specifically about reparations to you as an individual?
I am sure the lord doesn't care about the color of our skin, our race, or our culture. We humans have a lot of segregation and that is the enemies' way. To divide and conquer. I am an Australian, Aboriginal Solomon Islander, English, Arabic, Jew. Race just is showing the Lord separated us in the days of Babylon and looks like we are all coming back together again. Praise the Lord for getting these two together. The Lord doesn't get anything wrong. God bless
This love story illustrates the power of God's love. You both saw each other through the eyes of God, breaking barriers set by religion and race. This is the way the world should be and is a perfect demonstration of how we should love and treat one another. What I love about your story is that it clearly shows how religion or good deeds we do that are not motivated by God's love for us doesn't give you the true freedom we all so desperately need and search for. And mostly, I love and respect how you did not compromise your Christian values to please each other. A lot of young people and adults could definitely learn from your story!!
One thing I know for sure is that you can miss out on the best thing God has for you when you compromise (sin). I don't think you would be together today had you not stood firmly on your values and beliefs. It could have affected your witness to your husband, and perhaps he wouldn't have taken the necessary steps to establish a relationship with God. There is so much we can take away from your story!!! You guys nailed it! 💯 Thank you for sharing!!!!❤
When she said you're about to make me cry, to marry a man I'm proud of, that would be the dream
Awe! We can cry together 😭🤍 praying for you and your dream. God sees you and knows the desires of your heart! Thank you for listening. It means so much
When she said .. he’s my music !!!
He was the thing in my life every time I put it on
I just felt love, happiness and peace
When she said, he really has the heart of Jesus 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
woah she’s so pretty what
Thank you so much! This is so sweet! 🤍
The love of God through your relationship with one another is beautiful. To God be the Glory.
Curly hair routine and may God continue to bless you
Thank you so much! 🤍 my curly hair routine is truly just leave in conditioner + a whole lot of patience 🥹
Yeahhh I’m not okay 🥹 y’all are too cute. God bless you both. CZcams suggested this video for me & I’m so glad I watched. You all’s story had me cheesing the whole time. Thank y’all for being vulnerable and sharing. Praying for many more years of love between the two of you. 🤍

This is a beautiful story. What stuck out to me was your conviction, love for Jesus and discernment at such a young age is so commendable.
I’m so glad you two popped up on my feed. How inspiring to both young and old. God can do it for anyone if you trust and believe. Live His word. You two are so beautiful together.

I am so glad i found you guys today. You have such a beautiful love story. Your Faith in God is astronomical. He had Destined you to be together even before you left your mothers' wombs. There is nothing that can change or stop what God has Destined to be. May He continue to Bless you with Love, Happiness and Peace, and most of all, your Faith in Him 🌹

New subscriber. Cute love story - ignore folks with their Hatorade comments - keep on living out the story G-d continues to write for you. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your content ❤❤❤
Can’t wait to be back and I hope this helps someone out there!
I love loving you
Congratulations on your beautiful love story, it sound alot like ours. Continue to be strong, communicate, respect each other. Mainly keep Jesus at the center of it, and it will last. God bless you beautiful WOMAN of God, and handsome Man of God.
Girl, this story had me in tears, laughing, and vicariously falling in love! Btw your setup is beautiful.
I definitely felt all the feelings too 🥹 something about looking back and seeing all that God has done is incredible. Thank you so much for listening! You’re so sweet 🤍
Can I ask you a question? Why do every white woman feel she have the need to relate to a black WOMAN as "girl" to feel maybe you have to relate to us!? It's a negative stereotype, and it's very offensive, by listening to her vernacular, you can clearly hear that she don't use that kind of vocabulary. She is a black, beautiful, educated, WOMAN! Please STOP using this negative vocabulary, equated to "ghetto, black girls"
Ghetto come in ALL races, I see, but every black woman don't speak like that.
And please don't erase my comment. Other white women must be notified, so they can be alert and STOP using it!!
When he said I was smitten -- I still am !!! 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Woah beautiful conversation with Drew we want more of him. I am a young man in Africa and I play basketball too. Hope one day Drew will come to Africa and see the struggle we go through to play basketball. I am sooo..... happy to have found your channel. Connecting through GOD and basketball. This is beautiful and encouraging.
Amen Jesus is King.
God bless you both! What a wonderful story, and thank you for sharing. May you have a wonderful marriage and keep being a blessing to many 🙏
God has blessed you both , May he show Himself with your union
Wow thank you so much! God bless you too 🤍
❤ Pls continue to share how God continues working in your lives. It is a joy to witness. ☺
Not sure how this video “popped up”, but I’m so glad it did. You guys are awesome!
this made me cry 🥹 such a sweet love story and pointing to god's glory. thank you so much for your vulnerability in sharing this 💗
I’m crying with you 🥹 thank you so much for listening, it means so much to us! He truly gets all the glory, honor and praise! It was all Jesus 🤍
awwh, i see Jesus right through this relationship, so inspiring to walk with the Lord always! just a story Glorifying Jesus
Thank you for sharing. This episode was so moving and relatable. I felt that I was watching my own relationship with my partner unfold here. To the breaks, disobedience, etc. I understand I’m not one to force my relationship with Jesus on to them. I’m staying patient and obedient to what I have to do and pray they are doing the same and being true to their word. Again thank you for sharing, love you guys. Can’t wait to see where God takes yall and your podcast.
Wow! Thank you so much for listening it means so much! I’m so glad you could relate and felt seen in your own story. We will absolutely do an episode on making idols out of our partners and how that led to our breakup. God truly gets all the glory. We would not be where we are without Him 🥹🤍
Thank you for posting this. It was so inspiring and I can see God shining through it. May your union glorify God even more and bring people closer to Jesus. In jesus Name Amen❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
People as they say this is their story. If God tells you to break up with someone and anything happen is also an answer. Listen always to the holy spirit and he will guide you. Love you both of you you are amazing!
Yall got me crying over here 😭. Such a good story. Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to your future videos. God bless you guys
Thank you so much for listening, I’m so glad you enjoyed the episode! God bless you too beautiful! 🤍

Thank you so much for watching! This is so sweet. Is there any way I can pray for you? 🤍
I’m so grateful to have run into your video. I have a big smile from it. Can’t wait for your next video. God bless you
In every denomination, they were teaching that it's religious form of Godliness, but of course it's not right, seeing it's sin, but I was raised that way too until I found Jesus Christ.
Just stumbled on this channel and I'm blown away by your personality. It reminds me of myself.
God Bless you all❤
