    Ren wants us all to be more actively kind toward one another. He acknowledges how complicated things have become everywhere and emphasizes tolerance. He is very against the two party system. He wants us to work as a collective mind to form a better system not so easily corrupted. He’s aware of the complications involved in his little ask. Gotta love him!🤣❤️

    I thought the idea if it being as a modern day letter from Paul to Timothy was quite poetic and beautiful, definitely a new take on the entirety of the song from a reactor , as opposed to the usual recognition of the verse from Timothy by itself, and it makes me smile to thinnk of it that way. I can't wait to share this view with my husband later today I think it will make him smile too. Thank you guys xo

    Ren is not claiming that money is the root of all evil. it’s our reaction to money that CAN lead to evil. he clearly describes both negatives AND positives that can come from money in the song

    Let the pastor check out 'Hi Ren'! Ren is a prophet ( and I don't mean it as blasphemy!) His health suffering brought him to the abyss and he thought he would die soon. So he created music that he wanted to be remembered by and it turns out that, while he will struggle for the rest of his life, he gave so many of the suffering a reason to fight on! He has another song ' suic..e which was banned from yt for a while. Until it turned out that this song turned many away from the ledge!

    @francesdoll4039 2 місяці тому +9

    Thanks for those interesting thoughts on Money Ties. Ren brings a feeling of calm centeredness to the concept of money. It's a tool, and without love, money is rather irrelevant.
    Ren has been involved in a copyright strike with a producer and ended up in a health relapse of his Lyme disease. So "money makes the Sick Boi sicker somehow ". He worked with another producer also victimized years ago by the same guy, for this track. Ren split the money he makes with that producer,Nayz, in an effort to raise him up. ❤

    Ren is extremely unique and since you are pastors Hi Ren should definitely be on your list to check out!

    Ren's music and lyrics is a gift to us all. He makes us talk about difficult things in life & to care for each other. He's a very rare human being, to say the least.
    If there's anything that Ren despite it's for people to be needy and greedy.

    Also check out Eden, it’s not a song but a piece he did following the drop of money game 3 where he and his team devised a game which thousands of his followers solved puzzles together to win money, there was a bit of a twist at the end of the game. It’s genius and it helped create an amazing community across a number of social media sites. But if you watch Eden you will see his thoughts on the world and how we can change it by working together. ❤

    Hello gentlemen, I just subscribed to see more takes of your opinions on Ren's art. Pastor, if you haven't reacted to these Ren songs "Dear God", "Dominos" or the "Money Game" Trilogy & "The Tale of Jenny & Screech Trilogy, I highly recommend you do them soon😍. Also, if Pastor Chris hasn't reacted to "Hi Ren" yet, I think he would appreciate that artistic performance immensely. I'm assuming that Pastor Bryan is more familiar with Ren so I'm assuming he's already heard it. ✌❤

  • @alm7973
    @alm7973 2 місяці тому +3

    Very nice analysis and conversation about these song
    You guys should react also to Ren's money game part 3, which is like a prelude of these song Money Ties, Ren composed the piano arrengments and lyrics and produced the video as well, and plays the piano in the intro. Actually the whole trilogy of money games ( 1,2 & 3 ), go full circle about these topic of GREED , one of the seven sins in the Bible.

I am not quite sure that that would be sth a welsh artist wanted to express by this. Then again that is just my opinion and I do enjoy that you find hope and encouragement in this. I do understand that so close to the choice that happend that this would be lingering in the back ouf your head

If there wasnt knowledge there would be no need. Renegade mic drop! And these next 4 years will be all about money and hate of thy neighbors. there is no room from prophets in profit.
