    The kicker that people miss a lot and the meaning behind this song is that Jesus did all things for us. Its hard not to get emotional when I'm reminded how much he loves us. To anyone feeling alone, Jesus loves you before you were even in your mothers womb. Speak to him with faith and you will never be alone.

      I concur. I quit smoking on July 5th in 2006. That means that as I write this, my 18th anniversary without a cigarette is coming up on the day after Independence Day. I quit cocaine in September of 1996, so I have an upcoming anniversary there as well. That will be 28 years clean and sober without one slip. It hasn't been easy, nor should it be. I am proof that intelligence doesn't make you immune to addiction. I became addicted, as many do, due to a stay in the hospital. What makes it worse is that my wife is a nurse. She is also a big part of why I have managed to survive my addictions and get beyond them. Note that I didn't say cured, as you are never cured or completely recovered. I battle each day, as do you, with that specter. Each day, I tell myself why I should remain drug and cigarette free. That's just my life moving forward. I, too, am Italian ancestry, but I am also Irish ancestry in equal amount. The ironic thing is that both my parents are Irish-Italian, so I have the identical ancestry that both my parents do. That is somewhat uncommon. Being born in 1958, I am a boomer, but so are my parents. They are 1937 and 1939. That made them 21 and 19 when I was born. Actually, my mother was 5 days short of 19, and my father was 9 days short of 21. So that means we share a zodiac sign as well.

    Avi was the one who left. Mitch is the high-voiced guy. Despite rumors to the contrary, Avi did NOT help find his replacement. Not sure how that story got started, but it's gotten a LOT of traction on the internet...but it never happened. All that Avi did was post on social media that he thought the group had made the right choice in Matt.

      ​​@@brunettealesodaLet me see if I have this. You are saying that you know it's not true so that alone "debunks" the story. That isn't how it works. What is your actual evidence. Proof required, not opinion. For the record, the story isn't that he "chose his replacement", but rather that he contributed to the process of helping choose his replacement, a much lower standard to meet. That could be something as simple as a statement of affirmation when they were auditioning potential replacements, and he happens by the studio when Matt is there auditioning, and he hears him and says something like, "Dang, he's good". See how that works?

    I grew up listening to this song, as well, Jen. One of my mother’s favorite songs. We heard Kathy Mattea’s version of it when it came out in 1993 on her Good News album/tape. As I lost my mother nearly 3 years ago in early December, 2021, I get emotional, too, when I listen to this song, and other favorites of hers.
    I know it’s been a long time since you put this reaction video out, but I just wanted to congratulate you on your achievement in your sobriety path. Proud of you, Jen!!!
    Also, thank you for sharing the truth throughout these years of craziness in our country/world!!

Enter the house that the Lord has prepared for you since the beginning of time. NOT only that, but your grandmother is also still with you in all the cherished memories you have of the time you spent with her. Keep up the great work. I will be praying for you, Congrats on tour sobriety.

    I'm 52 years old. I can remember thirty years ago, in the southern US at least, even among the nonreligious, Christians were regarded as good, salt of the earth, type of people. We tried to quietly live by a different ethic and people had a respect for that. Its sad to me that as a society we've come to the place where just having a friendly attitude toward Christianity must be almost apologized for as if we're perceived as a hate group. The world has changed so much. 'Just Jen', I don't mean anything critical towards you. I appreciate the things you said. Its an indictment on the culture.

    Mark Lowry was the author of this song in case you didn't know, along with Buddy Greene. He also happens to be a comedian too. Obviously he is a Christian. This song has been sung by so many since he wrote it. You should check out him singing it, too. A favorite of mine is also this song sung by Michael English, who is just a vocal powerhouse, imo.

It blew my mind away. Keep reacting with your emotions!! This is one of those songs that will "hit me in the feels". I will tear up and I don't care who sees it. I have a feeling that I'm going to enjoy the "Just Jen" journey!!

    Oh girl- I honestly feel for you. I’m an emotional being too but to see you cry when you talk about your grandmother brings so many tears to me. I had a breakdown Dec 11 and I couldn’t figure out why. I then realized it was my grandmothers anniversary of her passing 35 years ago and it struck me so hard. My tears were endless that day. She raised me when I thought as a child no one really cared about me and I knew that my mother didn’t and she showed it. Keep the faith gf. Love from Utah 💕🎶💕

    Another a capella masterpiece is "My Favorite Things" by PTX, and my all time favorite is "Do You Hear What I Hear" by Home Free which is a bass/percussion extravaganza, and "Children Go Where I Send Thee" featuring Kenny Rogers...amazing. AND, if you like Kirstin, check out her latest release "Naked" from her solo album...amazing.
