This video is so unique, so real. Loved this video. I hope more real content continues. Lacey and Mike are so transparent! More of this is needed. We all have lost being real. Especially because of the governments hatred towards their own people in America. This was so refreshing! Liberating!
Mike I really never took you serious but I’m very impressed with your humility and dedication and leadership of your family. I to keep the sabbath and don’t eat pork.
This has been the best video I have ever come across! Thank you all for this eye opener. This is better than a counselor or therapy. This is real! Greatly appreciated.
Lacie said growing food is magical.. I says it’s miraculous, just think about it .. put a seed in the ground and it grows food .. wow what a miracle from God 🙌🏻
Many years ago I saw an embroidery piece that said, “Who plants the seed beneath the sod and waits to see believes in God.” I ALWAYS think of this when I’m planting and working in my garden. 😊
Your conversations affected me so deeply, thank you. Four wonderful people. Little children who haven't heard racism from their families or a just from around them, don't see colour.
I’ve followed both of your channels for a longtime and thoroughly enjoyed every momen of this talk. It did my heart so much good to see how close you are. My hope in the future of our great country rests on good people like you.
I have sat threw almost 4 hrs of Mike and Lacie and Joe Salton these have been very insightful and I thank you. I look forward to many more of your Pod Casts.
The fit farmer is my favorite show to watch. You can see the love they have for God each other and family. Just watching their body language so sit back and genuine. Their children are also sweet. Love this couple
Have felt in a funk lately with how the world has been and I saw this. Immediately pressed to watch it. Had been praying about needing a wholesome conversation to bring me back to All is okay. Keep the faith and keep on keepin on and this was EXACTLY what I needed. Y’all are 🙌🏻❤️🙏🏻
This program has been one of the best.......I have followed both couples and your dialog together has been very real and fertile for new ideas and thinking for many people in our country. Blessings to all of you.
So true. It's hard to have deep meaningful conversations about life, when you live your life with your feelings on your sleeve like a raw nerve ending. It is important to be able to communicate without condemnation; but in love, being compassionate, and desirous of growth for all. What a great discussion this was.
Growing up I didn't think of my identity as white, but as part Norwegian, part Belgian, part German part Scottish etc. As a descendant of immigrants, and 100% American. And singing Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world.
This has been a total eye,brain,heart opener...sole searching pod cast thank you to the 4 of you giving your feed back on all topics....what i heard was very simular to GODS TEN COMMANDENTS, & THE GOLDEN RULE, JUST PLAIN RESPECT FOR EVERYONE & EVERYTHING...BUT IN MUCH BETTER DETAIL 4 ALL TO UNDERSTAND. !!! ❤
That's how my journey began. I had many questions that no one could answer. So, I started reading my bible. It's funny that until a person read the bible for themselves, they don't know what it is about.
Thank you! thoroughly enjoyed this discussion. And really enjoyed listening to my teenagers. Listen to it and their conversations. Great way to start the morning off. Richest blessings upon your families. Love you guys. You’re a huge encouragement.
This was a great podcast. I didn’t know your families were so close. Watching you all talk all aspects of life gave me the Amen most everything that was said.
Are they really close or did they just meet at the homesteaders convention? I’ve never heard the Rhodes family talk about religion ever on their channel never seen them talking religion getting ready for church, etc. of course I know they don’t put everything on the channel but I thought they would’ve mentioned it once or twice anyway.
1st time watching your podcast, I love Mike and lacie and very glad to hear them talk about their religion. I don't eat pork and believe alot of what they believe. Great show glad I was able to catch this and watch it
WOW..... what a GRRREAT episode! I've been subscribed to Mike & Lacie's channel for some time now.... but admittedly don't watch them "religiously" like I do a lot of others. Never knew/realized how much in common we actually have..... as I believe and follow YHWH's Scriptures in much the same way(s) they do..... 'tis so refreshing to find/see others that follow our Creator the way He dictates/instructs throughout His Word. And it's not even just about that..... but the whole attitude and way they daily walk out their faith is such an encouragement & inspiration to me.... and countless others, I'm sure. Kind of makes me feel bad/"guilty" for not supporting them (their channel) more over the past few years..... especially when I really had no GOOD reason not to..... meh. We need more people like them and y'all in this country/world as The Day approaches..... no doubt about that. Shalom to you all. ;-)
As someone who worked in a hospital all my life, including during the pandemic, the ban on congregating was not about controlling people's lives, but about not overwhelming health care facilities and the workers. Even as it was, we were often overwhelmed, worked long hours wearing masks the entire time, dealing the the disbelief and even anger and then grief as so many people showed up sick and even dying. If a whole building of people got sick and ended up in our hospital, that was a huge burden on the system, especially in the beginning when we didn't really understand what was going on and what the best treatments were. Did the isolation go on for too long - probably, yes. Were our children/schools impacted in a really bad way - yes, it seems like they were in terms of risk vs benefit. We did learn a lot with that experience and will hopefully do better next time. So just providing another way of viewing what happened. Our church went online and sure, it wasn't the same, but we still offer that option now which has been a real blessing for those who are unable to travel to the building, either temporarily or long-term. Very interesting interview.
I appreciate the work you do and have done but keeping people scared and isolated was disastrous for people's overall health. The hospital would have killed my father if we hadn't gotten him out of there, and I know many more people that lost loved ones to "hospital policy".
Unfortunately, a lot of our health care system is just as broken as our food system. I was lucky enough to work in a really good hospital here in Colorado and it saved my life and the lives of a couple of my friends, so I didn't have the bad experiences that you did. So I can understand how much you now want to stay away from all that if at all possible. Thank you for replying to my comments. Really enjoyed your podcast, even though we are not of the same religious persuasion. That is one of the blessings of being in this country, everyone being able to follow their own beliefs and listen to their own hearts. Hope you are having a wonderful day.
There were so many people who sacrificed so much to keep others healthy and safe, unfortunately there were nefarious players at work during a time when wellness should have been the priority.
It’s great to be able to agree not to agree and still be friends the whole world would be a lot better off if people would learn to get along with each other God Bless
I love this ❤❤❤ I always loved both channels. This is refreshing seeing people talk about differences and similarities but NO judgment. God bless you all ❤
I was getting into reading the Bible and about 3 months ago I came across the word of what we should eat and not to eat. I grew up eating crab and shrimp and of course pork. I grew up catholic, when to catholic school and going to church every Sunday. My parents never knew or taught the importance of what we should eat. I decided on my own that if God has told us through scripture what meats we are supposed to eat and that he knows us better then we know ourselves that he knows what will make me the healthiest version of myself both physically and mentally. I believe now after trying this that I am physically and mentally feel better. There was no struggle making the choice and I’m not tempted at all to eat these foods. The only concern that I’ve had with it is getting food that doesn’t have part of pork, or other meat. For example, if I go to the Chinese food I can no longer eat the egg rolls. I didnt even realize that there was pork in them before. 🤷♀️ Changing habits and being extremely conscious about knowing all of what I was eating. Reading labels is key. Even imitation crab has crab meat in it. I can tell you personally I have not had any problems with this transition at all. I feel great and I’m not lacking for anything.
Lovely interview! We ourselves grew our own pasture raised pork years ago, the best of what we could raise ourselves-only to get it in the freezer and be convicted of the Leviticus clean and unclean animals! Lol! That was a hard pivot to not eat what we raised, especially financially, but your convictions must be walked out for inner peace. Loved the peaceful discussions, and the Fit Farmer and Yurt Mama were so kind and humble in their answers 😊
We did the exact same thing! Raised to 2 hogs on pasture and right when we butchered them... we had this Ah Ha moment. They didn’t go to waste, even though we personally didn’t eat them. I grew up eating wild hog my entire life, but these were the first 2 we had raised ourselves. The right way. That was definitely an ouch moment, but as always, it turned out to be a blessing in a different way than excepted.
back in 2014 I tried to start a garden, and got some comfrey starts and they got up so big and died. I was shocked, and my garden wouldn't grow, I was able to build my own boxes for raised beds and brought in a pickup load of matured cow manure, but I wasn't able to grow much of anything, a couple tomato plants and jalapeno plants. and I kept struggling to grow anything. I finally realized that years ago that area was a place we dumped all our trash to burn. We dumped everything there chemicals old paint cans and buried what wouldn't burn. So I finally realized I had destroyed the soil in that area.. I know that is shameful and it is going to take a lot of work to restore that area of soil.
We are all mixed Cultures, Races, Colors, We here in America are all Mixed Races. Nearly 90 percent of this country. It is a Blessing !! Not a curse !! We shld be Thankful for all of our f Family and Friends. If we die in the face of adversity. If we Love Jesus. We are ok ! A Ok !! Please Always Read Your Bibles and Pray.
I love this family. Funny I went on a 3 day fast about eating pork and The Lord spoke to me It's Not what Enters the body that Defiles you it comes out It's what's in the Heart. The Understanding of Hebraic words and The hearing The Holy Spirit for Yourself...That's Key for Yourself. Most of the rules of clean and unclean was for Jews and the Priest as He was creating a people. Christians need to understand how The Lord created Individuals with gifts and talents...Just ask Him💖
It felt so wrong being peer pressured to wear a mask at church. It made the church look weak imo. I understand our pastor was trying to keep the doors open, avoid trouble with the gov. and be considerate of those in the congregation with health issues/concerns, but it didnt feel right deep down in my bones.
Some of these popular homesteaders are fighting serious autoimmune diseases and others have relatives in cancer treatment, and they surely understood the need for masks. And what "trouble with the government"? Did you hear of the government putting pastors in jail for holding church? No. Those neighbors taking pictures weren't turning people in - they were simply gossiping. The government, which represents us, was simply trying to protect citizens from a dangerous virus. It was new to us, and our country found our way through the worst of it. I thought churches handled it beautifully around me and developed outstanding presence online, that we still utilize when we're sick or unable to be in community. The disabled and isolated are benefiting from it. Some people found rest in staying home on the Sabbath, and they still do, but they support their churches. No idols that I can see in protecting the health of your neighbor. (I attend church, and watch multiple services during the week online. It enriches and broadens my faith. Find the good.)
Love mike and laycie's channel. Not that hard to understand about the mixed thing of black and white theres over 30 million of us in america and growing 😂.
I took a training course for on the job training, and one of the saftey buzz saying was what is the worst that could happen. I still stop and do that quite often now in life. I still struggle with this, when you break down Leviticus 11 where god breaks down food allowances. When I look at the food he says not to eat, they are dirty foods, carrion eaters, and bottom feeders. I love seafood and all the things I love are the bottom feeders and the things God said not to eat. I don't understand rabbits but I do Pigs. I understand fowl, and chicken types yes, carrion eaters no. That makes sense. I still have not come to a complete answer. I understand the laws of God were for the Jews, not the Gentiles, and was more to set them apart more to themselves. This was a way for God to teach them that were different so he set up laws to set them apart to all but mostly to themselves. I have heard Jesus released us from this, but I still have not formed a complete decision. I study it many times per year and I will keep studying and asking others until I have come to a complete understanding. I still eat bacon and sausage as they are my 2 favorite foods. Most often I eat beef sausage. These are the only 2 pork things I eat. When it became a choice for me I quit eating all other pork items but ham, sausage and bacon.
i get labeled as white regardless which culture im around however i am mixed and back in the day i would have been outside or a house slave. thank you mike for this cause its something ive battled with in myself for so long and the stuggle and invisibly the mass of mix kids face.
I think the views regarding the Pandemic were a little 33:24 and judgy. Churches still assembled online. Small groups met in driveways or outside. You have to look at the reasons. It was about saving lives and was only temporary. I managed a Senior Facility. We saved lives by isolating. The church I was in went online but served the community with feeding hundreds of people by providing groceries with mobile food lines.
That’s not true in my family’s case my devout Catholic mother who is 90 years old has totally stopped going to church. They didn’t let her go during the pandemic, and she just never went back.😢 I find it very sad because it’s been a very big part of her life. She converted when she married my dad. I myself am a recovering Catholic but I feel bad for her and the rest of my family that were so involved in the church for years before the pandemic. And on top of that loss everyone of them has been vaccinated several times and they aren’t doing well. They’ve all had Covid three times. Smh
I Love you both ; I remember when we're about your chinkens and then you were a chinken out fit stay with chinken s that great , fit Framer I Love when you Enter view your framers . And I love this so great talking about God how you don't eat pork I don't Either God sd it was unclean Lev11:7 That it is read it Thk u. 😊 I just hope read pray talk God .
Justin, thank you for the interviews with Rory Feek and the Dicksons. I have watched them separately. I strongly suggest you go to the hospital with your arm. You have tetanus and bad infection. I don't want you to die. I honor and respect your sweet wife. She knows a lot. I just think you need antibiotics of whichever variety plus a tetanus shot. My prayers are with you and your family.
I can tell y'all that the youtubes are not happy with the content of this podcast because they have shown me more commercials in the forty minutes that I have watched so far, than I have seen in a lot of videos lately.
Here's the rule I follow and it has served me well: your right to swing your fist 8:44 ends at someone else's face. During covid, some church goers, healthcare workers, etc. prioritized their own "rights" over protecting the most vulnerable, resulting in a tragedy of epic proportions. Maybe they didn't lose anyone close to them, or maybe they don't believe in germ theory because it's not in the Bible. Wake up, y'all! People were dying because you insisted on gathering to worship God! They picked an odd hill to die on, especially because THEY didn't die, someone else did.
Did he wash "thou shall have no other gods before"; honor your father and mother; thou shall not steal, kill, commit adultery etc" no it is His torah, his law.
Mike Paul said Colossians 2:16-23 King James Version 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. 18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God. 20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, 21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not; 22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? 23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
We agree with the Fit Farmers, their belief and atitude is ours as well.
THE FIT FARMER HAS SUCH A PRESENCE OF HUMILITY. ❤ HE'S WHAT GOD WANTS. LIVING THE DREAM. Thank you, Justin Rhodes
God created Blacks.
God created Whites.
God never created
mixed. He is mixed
and their children are.
My comment has disappeared.
Does anyone see it?
God made the races.
My comments are being censored.
God made Whites,
God made Blacks.
God never made
MIXED.
Another thong about Mike he knows how to make a good video and hes not braggy about his lifestyle.
We love Mike and Lacie! We share the same (or very similar) beliefs. They are the real deal, very genuine and truly love people.
I love how passionate he is about the lord .he makes me wanna pick the Bible up and read it more.bc I wanna feel that
This video is so unique, so real. Loved this video. I hope more real content continues. Lacey and Mike are so transparent! More of this is needed. We all have lost being real. Especially because of the governments hatred towards their own people in America. This was so refreshing! Liberating!
HUGH fans of Laci and Mike. Love what they stand for. Blessings !!!
Mike I really never took you serious but I’m very impressed with your humility and dedication and leadership of your family. I to keep the sabbath and don’t eat pork.
Mike and Lacie are one of my most favorite channels!
Mike and Lacey and Rebecca and Justin so refreshing to see parents who are so united and love each other so much
This has been the best video I have ever come across! Thank you all for this eye opener. This is better than a counselor or therapy. This is real! Greatly appreciated.
Hi.... Justin Rhodes and Rebecca and Mike Dickson and Lacey thanks you for showing your video homestead bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍
Lacie said growing food is magical.. I says it’s miraculous, just think about it .. put a seed in the ground and it grows food .. wow what a miracle from God 🙌🏻
Many years ago I saw an embroidery piece that said, “Who plants the seed beneath the sod and waits to see believes in God.” I ALWAYS think of this when I’m planting and working in my garden. 😊
Your conversations affected me so deeply, thank you. Four wonderful people. Little children who haven't heard racism from their families or a just from around them, don't see colour.
Forgiveness is a super power! We all have the ability to practice this gift
I’ve followed both of your channels for a longtime and thoroughly enjoyed every momen of this talk. It did my heart so much good to see how close you are. My hope in the future of our great country rests on good people like you.
Amen. I totally agree that we go through experiences so that we can relate to other people. Empathy is so much more powerful than just sympathy.
I am a Christian who doesn’t eat pork and keep the seventh day Sabbath. I enjoyed listening to this program
I have sat threw almost 4 hrs of Mike and Lacie and Joe Salton these have been very insightful and I thank you. I look forward to many more of your Pod Casts.
And listening to this podcast and your discussions of everything here is the reason why I subscribed to the Fit Farmer. Mike and Lacie rock!
The fit farmer is my favorite show to watch. You can see the love they have for God each other and family. Just watching their body language so sit back and genuine. Their children are also sweet. Love this couple
Have felt in a funk lately with how the world has been and I saw this. Immediately pressed to watch it. Had been praying about needing a wholesome conversation to bring me back to All is okay. Keep the faith and keep on keepin on and this was EXACTLY what I needed. Y’all are 🙌🏻❤️🙏🏻
I wish Mike and Lacey would start a podcast! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️❤️❤️
This program has been one of the best.......I have followed both couples and your dialog together has been very real and fertile for new ideas and thinking for many people in our country. Blessings to all of you.
Thank you for this uplifting and strong message of our faith in Jesus and our love of our Lord
So true. It's hard to have deep meaningful conversations about life, when you live your life with your feelings on your sleeve like a raw nerve ending. It is important to be able to communicate without condemnation; but in love, being compassionate, and desirous of growth for all. What a great discussion this was.
Wow , that chitchat was absolutely amazing and very interesting. Love the four of you , your family , and both UA-cam content.❤❤
Thank you!
I am so refreshed hearing your hearts. What a gift you 4 are!
Growing up I didn't think of my identity as white, but as part Norwegian, part Belgian, part German part Scottish etc. As a descendant of immigrants, and 100% American. And singing Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world.

Hands down the best podcast Justin had .love this so much
Love listening to Mike and Lacie!
That was a very good conversation, especially the part about race. Mike is very correct with what he said.
This is the very best conversation I have heard, from homesteading to race. Thank you so much. This should be on the big screen.
❤ Great conversation
I'm loving these talks ❤
That's how my journey began. I had many questions that no one could answer. So, I started reading my bible. It's funny that until a person read the bible for themselves, they don't know what it is about.
This is a GREAT CONVERSATION! Really good stuff. THANKS GUYS. 🙏🏼❤️
Oh my goodness this was awesome! We love all of you so much! What a fun interview! ❤ I agree 100% with everything you said.
Thanks for sharing real life with all of us. Great insight from humble place of wisdom.
I am blessed by the humility of Jo n Laci. God is working in and through them. ❤️
This was such an awesome time with ya'll. We love both your families so much!! ❤😊
Thank you! thoroughly enjoyed this discussion. And really enjoyed listening to my teenagers. Listen to it and their conversations. Great way to start the morning off. Richest blessings upon your families. Love you guys. You’re a huge encouragement.
What a great discussion! ❤
Really enjoyed this. Enjoyed hearing them share their biblical values. Very genuine and humble.
This was a great podcast. I didn’t know your families were so close. Watching you all talk all aspects of life gave me the Amen most everything that was said.
Are they really close or did they just meet at the homesteaders convention?

@kar702 we have known the Rhodes since before they ever started their UA-cam channel.
1st time watching your podcast, I love Mike and lacie and very glad to hear them talk about their religion. I don't eat pork and believe alot of what they believe. Great show glad I was able to catch this and watch it
Mike and Lacey are so real. Love them!
I have watched both of your channels since the beginning. This was outstandingly excellent. Thank you🙂
Love All y’all watch both of your channels!

We need more people like them and y'all in this country/world as The Day approaches..... no doubt about that. Shalom to you all. ;-)
The angel at Christ's tomb said to the women, "Fear not, for I KNOW that you seek Him." It is so refreshing to see people who are genuinely seeking.
This was a great interview. I watch FIT FARMER but learned alot more about them today. Thank you
Thank you for being so open and real. Loved the discussion.

I can tell you personally I have not had any problems with this transition at all. I feel great and I’m not lacking for anything.
It was so refreshing when I found Mike and Lacie. I had a hard time realizing I could homestead with only clean meat.
I really enjoyed this!!!

Church is great and God is good!
Love you guys. All 4 of you. ❤ my daughter goes by the term bi-racial. She is also mulato. Love how you explained. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the best things ( video) I have watched in a long time
Great program - thanks ❤️😁🌹
Really Inspirational!
This was so powerful! ❤
Another great video, Justin.
Love the vulnerable moments with the food stamps story.
Excellent interview
Amen Mike on everything you said
If your health depends on not eating certain foods,You do it ,God knows wants what’s best for every individual
On one hand I personally would not cook pork for a couple days out of respect!
So valuable as a married couple to be emotionally available 🤍🩵💜😍
back in 2014 I tried to start a garden, and got some comfrey starts and they got up so big and died. I was shocked, and my garden wouldn't grow, I was able to build my own boxes for raised beds and brought in a pickup load of matured cow manure, but I wasn't able to grow much of anything, a couple tomato plants and jalapeno plants. and I kept struggling to grow anything. I finally realized that years ago that area was a place we dumped all our trash to burn. We dumped everything there chemicals old paint cans and buried what wouldn't burn. So I finally realized I had destroyed the soil in that area.. I know that is shameful and it is going to take a lot of work to restore that area of soil.
love this!
From Barbados I also thought you were one of them to until I saw some blacks at your homestead ❤ you all would 💘 to visit
Oh please! What is the name of the book!!
We are all mixed Cultures, Races, Colors, We here in America are all Mixed Races. Nearly 90 percent of this country. It is a Blessing !! Not a curse !! We shld be Thankful for all of our f Family and Friends. If we die in the face of adversity. If we Love Jesus. We are ok ! A Ok !! Please Always Read Your Bibles and Pray.
🙋🏼♀️🕊. I ask my Sunday school children, what do you think the world 🌎 would be like if everyone lives the 10 Commandments
I love this family. Funny I went on a 3 day fast about eating pork and The Lord spoke to me It's Not what Enters the body that Defiles you it comes out It's what's in the Heart. The Understanding of Hebraic words and The hearing The Holy Spirit for Yourself...That's Key for Yourself. Most of the rules of clean and unclean was for Jews and the Priest as He was creating a people. Christians need to understand how The Lord created Individuals with gifts and talents...Just ask Him💖
Pork has parasites that do not die when cooked. It does affect health in the long run. It is considered unclean.

Mike knows Him!
It felt so wrong being peer pressured to wear a mask at church. It made the church look weak imo. I understand our pastor was trying to keep the doors open, avoid trouble with the gov. and be considerate of those in the congregation with health issues/concerns, but it didnt feel right deep down in my bones.
You were very lucky even being allowed to go to church with a mask because my family wasn’t, they closed the churches.
Some of these popular homesteaders are fighting serious autoimmune diseases and others have relatives in cancer treatment, and they surely understood the need for masks. And what "trouble with the government"? Did you hear of the government putting pastors in jail for holding church? No. Those neighbors taking pictures weren't turning people in - they were simply gossiping. The government, which represents us, was simply trying to protect citizens from a dangerous virus. It was new to us, and our country found our way through the worst of it. I thought churches handled it beautifully around me and developed outstanding presence online, that we still utilize when we're sick or unable to be in community. The disabled and isolated are benefiting from it. Some people found rest in staying home on the Sabbath, and they still do, but they support their churches. No idols that I can see in protecting the health of your neighbor. (I attend church, and watch multiple services during the week online. It enriches and broadens my faith. Find the good.)
Love mike and laycie's channel. Not that hard to understand about the mixed thing of black and white theres over 30 million of us in america and growing 😂.
I took a training course for on the job training, and one of the saftey buzz saying was what is the worst that could happen. I still stop and do that quite often now in life. I still struggle with this, when you break down Leviticus 11 where god breaks down food allowances. When I look at the food he says not to eat, they are dirty foods, carrion eaters, and bottom feeders. I love seafood and all the things I love are the bottom feeders and the things God said not to eat. I don't understand rabbits but I do Pigs. I understand fowl, and chicken types yes, carrion eaters no. That makes sense. I still have not come to a complete answer. I understand the laws of God were for the Jews, not the Gentiles, and was more to set them apart more to themselves. This was a way for God to teach them that were different so he set up laws to set them apart to all but mostly to themselves. I have heard Jesus released us from this, but I still have not formed a complete decision. I study it many times per year and I will keep studying and asking others until I have come to a complete understanding. I still eat bacon and sausage as they are my 2 favorite foods. Most often I eat beef sausage. These are the only 2 pork things I eat. When it became a choice for me I quit eating all other pork items but ham, sausage and bacon.
i get labeled as white regardless which culture im around however i am mixed and back in the day i would have been outside or a house slave. thank you mike for this cause its something ive battled with in myself for so long and the stuggle and invisibly the mass of mix kids face.
Compassion for your struggle.
I think the views regarding the Pandemic were a little 33:24 and judgy. Churches still assembled online. Small groups met in driveways or outside. You have to look at the reasons. It was about saving lives and was only temporary. I managed a Senior Facility. We saved lives by isolating. The church I was in went online but served the community with feeding hundreds of people by providing groceries with mobile food lines.
That’s not true in my family’s case my devout Catholic mother who is 90 years old has totally stopped going to church. They didn’t let her go during the pandemic, and she just never went back.😢 I find it very sad because it’s been a very big part of her life. She converted when she married my dad. I myself am a recovering Catholic but I feel bad for her and the rest of my family that were so involved in the church for years before the pandemic. And on top of that loss everyone of them has been vaccinated several times and they aren’t doing well. They’ve all had Covid three times. Smh
I’m sorry to hear that.

Justin, thank you for the interviews with Rory Feek and the Dicksons. I have watched them separately. I strongly suggest you go to the hospital with your arm. You have tetanus and bad infection. I don't want you to die. I honor and respect your sweet wife. She knows a lot. I just think you need antibiotics of whichever variety plus a tetanus shot. My prayers are with you and your family.

I can tell y'all that the youtubes are not happy with the content of this podcast because they have shown me more commercials in the forty minutes that I have watched so far, than I have seen in a lot of videos lately.
What Mike said about racist talk! YES!!!
To be honest my gut feeling has always been not to eat pork…
Here's the rule I follow and it has served me well: your right to swing your fist 8:44 ends at someone else's face. During covid, some church goers, healthcare workers, etc. prioritized their own "rights" over protecting the most vulnerable, resulting in a tragedy of epic proportions. Maybe they didn't lose anyone close to them, or maybe they don't believe in germ theory because it's not in the Bible. Wake up, y'all! People were dying because you insisted on gathering to worship God! They picked an odd hill to die on, especially because THEY didn't die, someone else did.
Not eating pork is from the Old Testament. Jesus came and washed the old ways away. Yet God gave us dominion over all animals.
Dominion is OT.
Did he wash "thou shall have no other gods before"; honor your father and mother; thou shall not steal, kill, commit adultery etc" no it is His torah, his law.

Jesus Christ did not die on the cross to sanctify the hogs.
DO NOT EAT THEM.
I think you agree with me
about this.
Don't marry outside of your race.
Mike Paul said Colossians 2:16-23
King James Version
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
There are several religions that 'eat clean', convection and the Bible or the interpretation of it.God Bless y'all.
I had no idea Mike was mixed but I don’t look at color I try to look at people for they are and how they treat others

Cross
BY LANGSTON HUGHES
My old man’s a white old man
And my old mother’s black.
If ever I cursed my white old man
I take my curses back.
If ever I cursed my black old mother
And wished she were in hell,
I’m sorry for that evil wish
And now I wish her well.
My old man died in a fine big house.
My ma died in a shack.
I wonder where I’m gonna die,
Being neither white nor black?
