A week before she transitioned, she stated, " I'm on my way home to see my father." She was so happy. I will never forget this as long as I live because. She allowed me to witness a real believer.
Christiana Richardson She was my Mentor and Prayer Warrior. I miss her so much.. But I know 100% she is in Heaven ..and HEAVEN is certainly real.Just as Moses ask GOD for a dream.. GOD gave me a dream and I met JESUS‼️ He is very much real. Olive Skin completed Deep green eyes like how fire coruscates JESUS Eyes did so...He looks Middle Eastern where he originated from.One if thee most Powerful SWEETEST LOVING entities that I ever. meet. Indeed Denise saved Souls she was the smallest biggest sacrifice next to JESUS. When I awoke from my Dream I open my Bible randomly and the scripture immediate appointed I WILL SHOW YOU THE MYSTERIES OF HEAVEN. I knew than to never question GOD ever AGAIN Sistah.JESUS will be returning to earth soon. Amen&Amen👏💛
I'm really glad Joan Rivers was a polite interviewer, a sponge even. Because nowadays if a person like Denise were to come to an interview, Bible in hand, and bash the psychic practices and say "I was demon possessed. Its evil. The Bible is the truth" people would be laughing like they are in the comments below, calling her crazy and not taking the warning. Look at the people in the audience; they look respectful and receptive. Doesn't mean they all went down to church and got saved, but at least they respected her message. I love her for her courage and devotion to God. It is amazing to see.
Kela Bell in a way yeah she was cuz she brought the stripper lol but Joan was actually quite respectful here compared to mediabof today. Imagine if Andy Cooper or the panel of The View interviews her. TRAINWRECK and someone's feelings will get hurt
You have to remember that most people back then were at least Christian on some level. There's more diversity now and recognition of this. It's not about what the person believes. it's when people start projecting their beliefs onto others (like she did here) that we now recognized as a problem
@@autumnasters she was being interviewed ab her beliefs tho. They were asking her questions and then totally disrespected her. Imagine inviting a vegetarian to an interview and then have Emerill Lagasse as the guest cook fire up some meat right in front of the vegetarian and then say shit like “i love meat. I dont need to be vegetarian.” ...think ab that...all of it was for show and they didnt take her personal story seriously which is ultimately disrespectful
They were treating Denise like she was crazy but she was just speaking her truth. I'm so glad she turned her life around before she left this earth. She was an open book and loved Jesus, that's what made her happy RIP
They treated her very respectfully. She was a sexually explicit performer and now suddenly she is a born again Christian. Everyone is shocked and trying to understand because it’s a huge change.
“But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” -1 Corinthians 2:14
I understand her completely..I talk and listen to God everyday..and most of all Obey God even if it doesn't make sense.It will later, because I Trust God..God brings me love,joy,peace,forgiveness..Denise is a true Christian who loves God and gives her testimony.
Never seen this interview. Never met her in person but we talked on the phone for hours about the Bible, men and life. She gave me great advice that I will always treasure. She is greatly missed.
We never met, but talked on the phone. Wasn't a pleasant experience, we butted heads, mainly bc of our STRONG PERSONALITY. However she did lead me to Christ. A childhood favorite led me to God was a blessing. I would have liked to have a much more positive experience, but we emailed each other 2 days before her passing on a good note.
This interview was hilarious. These two women were on completely different frequencies and levels, trying to connect but just so disconnected from each other.
I love it!!! I love watching it and watching her speak about The Lord!!! I can't help but smile and I can't get the smile off my face. I feel her joy and love for The Lord!!! This is an awesome testimony that she had!! I know that her soul is with God and that makes me rejoice!!
Glory be to God...her life was in God ❤...and now she is in eternal life living with absolute pace Joy and live!!! I cannot wait but know I gotta complete this walk before I go back home!!!!!
I’m not a Christian. But there is an argument for what she’s doing and saying just based in the effect her beliefs have had on her personally. In earlier interviews she is sweet but so flighty and pliant. She really has a voice here, and the strength of her personality has a real force. She’s able to override the conversation when it goes sideways effortlessly and she’s able to stun Joan into silence with her conviction here.
Even though I'm watching this almost 22 years later, I can't even begin to express how happy I am for Denise. Everything she said made complete sense. There's a reflection and familiarity to her story, I believe to be true. Everything, everyone that is brought into your life is a gift and sign. We all choose to either listen or to ignore those signs. Great piece, now if only Joan could have understood, and been awaken by this a well.
I don't think many people are saying that just bc. I'm sure she found solace in religion however you have to remember that she did overdose 2 years after this interview aired...meaning she wasn't quite clean yet. she does exhibit all of the signs of a person who is either on drugs or freshly detoxing off of drugs (paranoia, disconnected, possible hallucinations etc.) people generally don't go from a hardcore party life full of drugs sex and occult practices and wake up one morning a born again Christian. at this point in her life she seemed to have no concept of moderation or balance. either way I'm glad that she eventually seems to have found peace.
Ms. Matthews was preaching in my city & I was invited to hear her speak, & she was saved, You have to find peace cause our world is so full of anger & hatred 4 all the wrong reasons RIP 👊🏾
I hope theists can hear how brainwashed she is and really look in the mirror at themselves and hopefully understand how absolutely ridiculous a belief in religious doctrine truly is....I feel sorry for people like this
Denise Matthews Jan 4, 1959-Feb 15, 2016. It was reported that as she left church a day or two prior, she told some of her congregation that she was "ready to go home."
She was not crazy!!! I can testify that when you initially find Jesus, this is how your soul rejoices. It's overwhelming and you can't stop sharing The Good News!!! Once you setting in the walk with new shoes, the announcement tapers but the focus remains.
It's sad that both Denise & Joan are gone now. Joan just couldn't get or understand what Denise was talking about in this interview. I hope Joan accepted the Lord ,Jesus Christ as her personal Savior before she passed away. May they both R.I.P.
I doubt it she was not a christian plus she loved the world, she is with michael, john lennon, jimmy hendrix, kurt kobain somewhere in hell fire screaming and begging for a second chance, actually her new name is joan in the lake, Denise was ministering to her yet she was patronizing! her too bad for joan!!
@@harveyd273 Did you see them there?? You are human just like the rest of us mortals so you have no idea what happens when people die.... Do not judge others and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned.
@@harveyd273 Oh ye of judgement and little faith. Joan was in a coma before she died and if you know anything, Jesus reached many people in comatose states before death. I prayed for her salvation before she died and I know she made it.
She's right about the business being evil. How many artists we lost due to the pressures & brain washing from family..management etc. I give Denise credit
Okay, listen to her, she tells the truth in a lot of what she's saying. I don't care if a voice told her these things, or she just found peace in what ever her beliefs are. A lot of us are walking around every day, miserable, working a job you hate, so on and so forth. She's happy. I'm happy for her. God, now I need to find my happiness.
I know...Joan kept trying to redirect her because she was making powerful statements to represent the Most High....I love how vanity got back on track over and over again.....This woman was truly my baby....
Now , I don't know if Joan had Jesus in her heart before she died but I know without a doubt that Denise Matthews served King Jesus from a pure heart. She is in Glory, Amen!!
She damaged the kingdom of darkness in that interview, she glorified the true and living God 🙏 I hope a lot of people made a decision to get saved that day . Thank you Father for her she is an inspiration .
@@omarilacey9962 i've never seen a white person with her eyes, eye area and her cheekbones. that's literally what made denise so beautiful. she got it from her dad
@@vinx3407 She was biracial. To me, she looked Mexican. But I found out she was Jewish. Can you believe it? I wonder how many people know this. Her dad was Black and her mom was German-Polish.
She is so beautiful without layers of makeup. She has makeup on but it is minimal. Considering how sick she was internally, it is amazing how she glows.
I never met her in person but feel like I have. Prince has been my favorite since day one. Vanity became my girl friend too, through her music and movies. The most beautiful girl in the world. RIP
+harlengabriel ... Obviously he was to her. my Bible says there's only one God. As for black people his lineage or genealogy definitely had, some black in it. His great grandmother Ruth was black. look it up.. Ruth was a moabite aka black..
+harlengabriel yes and you are right! we as mankind always take things even God at our own benefit to keep people and ourselves down. God is a Spirit NOT a man... and we are to worship him in spirit and in truth. So yes when religion was established, and used to keep people in slavery, that was never his plan. Jesus himself did not like religion and hypocrisy!! That's why he says whosoever believes in him..Hes an Equal opportunist! ALL PEOPLE!!!So if I as a black woman, chooses to accept him as my God that's my choice.. That's called Faith!!!... forget all the politics!! It doesn't negate the fact that i'm black.. He created me.. And you know what he said, That I'm fearfully and wonderfully made!! Psalms 139:14 .. So if I believe in a God who's a Spirit, and Jesus who comes from the tribe of Judah. I''m Good!!
I didn't get that impression from the audience. They were listening, just like me and Joan Rivers. Although Joan lived up into her early 80’s. She was bitter and frustrated with show business and the only thing that truly matter in her life was her daughter and Grandson💛✨👌
@@jonathandow684 i agree. It looked to me like they were really getting her message and recieving it. The audience looked really impacted by the message and testimony to me.
Good for her. Vanity went throuh H and back, and praise GOD she is saved from all that. A pretty face can be a curse. This woman was young when discovered by Prince. She had men like Billy Idol, Adam Ant sixx from the Montley crew, John Stamos, & many many others. People want to judge her, because of her addiction. She should be a pure n clear example for everyone on here. Drugs can and will kill a life. Thank GOD she was able to find him and turn her life around GodBless her.
kmc#1steelers: Well said. Only the devil reminds a saint of their past. Instead of people being so focused on what she was, how about giving Jesus the glory on how He changed sinner to a saint. I f Jesus can change vanity, he surely can change anyone. And that IS the point.
I think what's missing from a lot of the conversations we are having about her is the fact that she was a beautiful woman who was sexualized and abused at a very early age. "Vanity" seemed to be an an attempt to regain some control over a facade that was projected onto her but ended up causing more damage and trauma. She was before my time but I find her to be oddly captivating. While I do believe that she traded in one addiction for another I'm just glad that one of them led to her living a more fulfilling life
@@lucianakueker5001 Yes but religion can be. And she did in fact trade her hedonism addiction for a religious one. She didn't know better. What she needed was both professional therapy and spiritual assistance.
I love that Sister Denise Matthews had her Bible with her. She was serious about God. I saw this episode as a child and it really ministered to me and I was like wow! Vanity? She’s changed and not ashamed. That made a positive impact in my life just seeing her like this on this show.
It’s interesting to look at this interview today - Denise is making a lot of sense on things like needing to remove herself from being used as a sexual object - taking drugs and abusing her body. I don’t know if her evangelicals approach would be well received nowadays, however her message is pure, Rest In Peace Denise.
...She said she hated herself she couldn't wait to go home & be alone so she could cry because she was miserable...l appreciate her transparency and her will to live in this interview😘
She was just happy and got excited for jesus and this right here motivates me to keep walking with the Lord my saviour Jesus Christ🙌🏾 Love you! Denise "vanity" Katrina Matthews R.I.P♥️
You have the best comment on here! I give you two thumbs up(like) you said it right, she in love with the lord, I'm so happy she found rest in the Lord...Amen
Ms Denise is speaking the 100% Truth!......I'm so sorry that I didn't ever get to meet her and worship with her. But, I hope to meet her some day when we all transition. Maranatha.
Such a beautiful pure soul. And Im honestly inpressed at the level of spiritual discernment she had. Even more than people that claim to have been Christians their whole lives. Such an inspiration. ❤
I love her passion for Christ! He is the only way. Picking up the Mantel, Woman of God! There are some soldiers left here that are doing Kingdom business! Jesus IS LORD!!!
I’m a recovering Catholic. I found my spiritual satisfaction. I’m glad she found her spiritual satisfaction. She nearly died from drugs. I think Denise knew what she was up against during this interview. I’ll admit it took some getting used to seeing her fully dressed. Rest In Peace Vanity. I miss you.
I was drop dead in love "Vanity" - she was my poster girl - I even wrecked my car trying to see her signing autographs as she was promoting her album "Wild Animal" at Tower Records in Hollywood.. but to hear her talk about seeing Demon's Sleeping in her bed and seeing them walking around in her bedroom - is sort of disturbing to hear 30 some years later.. bcz she's saying this stuff... completely Sober.. and did she really need to bring her bible with her just to sit and talk with Joan Rivers?? I mean did she even notice that the "Demons" stopped sleeping in her bed and walking around in her bedroom after she stopped doing drugs?? poor girl ended up losing her life as a result of past drug addictions - but you can see by some of the things she says that happened to her - were also written into the script for Purple Rain .. RIP "Beautiful One".. "The Beautiful one's always smash the picture.. always.. every time"!!
Are you kidding. If she would have been in ANY OTHER talk show at that time (especially including oprah) she would have been absolutely ridiculed for her beliefs and them being so ironic since she is known for being a hyper-sexualized public figure. Joan Rivers felt bad for her and didn't want to humiliate her on her show, and trust me...she could have. Joan was always sweeter to guests that where otherwise ridiculed when they went on all the other talk shows. Like the Club Kids for exemple. She was a sweetheart to gay men and drag queen and especially women. So please...wake up and smell the real world. There are no demons or magic...theres just you.
There are no guarantees except for the blood of Christ who shed for us. Just because you get saved doesn't mean all your problems go away. He promises eternal life; not peace on earth.
May she rest in God's peace. Not everyone will understand her experience, it's a personal relationship with God and it's so beautiful she left that life that was destroying her. So good of her to speak in public.
She was on the wrong show,the love she have for God is beautyful,Joan was really low key making fun of her,but thank God she continued to speak on her faith
I dont think she was on the wrong show... Joan actually allowed her to project herself for God and actually listened to her while asking hard life questions that we all face... I think the stark contrast between the two women here allows us to make a clear distinction for the truth that we want to live or believe..Class interview and you got to give it to Joan for not being condescending whatsoever in her approach... Denise also did a great job here... Class interview for me!!!
julianajuliana beyonce is always smiling in the public. But remember when jayz and solange got caught fighting in the elevator, and when they exited the building to get in their cars,Beyonce was smiling and pretending like nothing had happened, she had no idea at the time the whole world had just witnessed her in the elevator. Also Beyonce is Always smiling in the public nonstop! She is masking her pain. She is hiding her sorrows with that smile.I could be wrong but that's how I feel.
I thank God for your life and your witness for Jesus Christ and your testimony Ms. Denise Matthews thank you for sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ 🙏🏽🌹
A week before she transitioned, she stated, " I'm on my way home to see my father." She was so happy. I will never forget this as long as I live because. She allowed me to witness a real believer.
She was real. She never talked about anyone’s life but hers. That’s real!
But yet chastising others for not living the right life
@@maninedoow5895when did she chastised others for not living the “right life”?
Denise sinned in front of the world and confessed in front of the world. She was a strong witness for Christ. She received the gift of The Christ!
+Christiana Richardson She really did. And people think she's crazy here. They just don't understand the power of God!
She has the sprit of King David because of her genuine joy in Christ.

+harlengabriel ... Obviously he was to her. my Bible says there's only one God. As for black people his lineage or genealogy definitely had, some black in it. His great grandmother Ruth was black. look it up.. Ruth was a moabite aka black..
+harlengabriel yes and you are right! we as mankind always take things even God at our own benefit to keep people and ourselves down. God is a Spirit NOT a man... and we are to worship him in spirit and in truth. So yes when religion was established, and used to keep people in slavery, that was never his plan. Jesus himself did not like religion and hypocrisy!! That's why he says whosoever believes in him..Hes an Equal opportunist! ALL PEOPLE!!!So if I as a black woman, chooses to accept him as my God that's my choice.. That's called Faith!!!... forget all the politics!! It doesn't negate the fact that i'm black.. He created me.. And you know what he said, That I'm fearfully and wonderfully made!! Psalms 139:14 .. So if I believe in a God who's a Spirit, and Jesus who comes from the tribe of Judah. I''m Good!!
+harlengabriel ... ok I will thank you.
+harlengabriel ... ok I will thank you.
Wow her story is amazing!!
Those people in the audience are looking at her like she's crazy and some crazy Christian lol. But I am happy for her!
I didn't get that impression from the audience. They were listening, just like me and Joan Rivers. Although Joan lived up into her early 80’s. She was bitter and frustrated with show business and the only thing that truly matter in her life was her daughter and Grandson💛✨👌
Them white people were acting as if she was crazy!
@@jonathandow684 i agree. It looked to me like they were really getting her message and recieving it. The audience looked really impacted by the message and testimony to me.
They look like they were listening
She just had that impact .. just imagine if she would of had that impact if she was just vanity 6 the sex symbol star
She looks so beautiful in this more peaceful
Good for her. Vanity went throuh H and back, and praise GOD she is saved from all that. A pretty face can be a curse. This woman was young when discovered by Prince. She had men like Billy Idol, Adam Ant sixx from the Montley crew, John Stamos, & many many others. People want to judge her, because of her addiction. She should be a pure n clear example for everyone on here. Drugs can and will kill a life. Thank GOD she was able to find him and turn her life around GodBless her.
this is the best comment I've seen and you're right
Chris Kelly TY. People are so judgemental. Thank GOD NO man can make a heaven or hell for me.
+KMC#1 STEELERS AMEN!!!! 👋👋👋
bethanyO old conversation... Move along
kmc#1steelers:
Well said.
Only the devil reminds a saint of their past.
Instead of people being so focused on what she was, how about giving Jesus the glory on how He changed sinner to a saint.
I f Jesus can change vanity, he surely can change anyone. And that IS the point.
Thanks Denise for such an amazing and inspiring testimony.

2020 every tongue will confess
I pray 💌🙏
Amen Helluah confirmation
RIP Denise. Glad you spoke the truth.
I love this I wish she was still here with us I'm proud she found god before she passed away
I think what's missing from a lot of the conversations we are having about her is the fact that she was a beautiful woman who was sexualized and abused at a very early age. "Vanity" seemed to be an an attempt to regain some control over a facade that was projected onto her but ended up causing more damage and trauma.
She was before my time but I find her to be oddly captivating. While I do believe that she traded in one addiction for another I'm just glad that one of them led to her living a more fulfilling life
Well said
I get what you are saying but I need to clarify this, Jesus is the complete truth. He's not a addiction.
@@lucianakueker5001 You're entitled to that belief as is she. Anything that stops her from relapsing and/or being exploited. That's what I care about
I thought the same thing!
@@lucianakueker5001 Yes but religion can be. And she did in fact trade her hedonism addiction for a religious one. She didn't know better. What she needed was both professional therapy and spiritual assistance.
Stunning woman , Canadian beauty. Her music was sexy but what she became was magnificent. I came to Christ recently. This is inspiring.
I love that Sister Denise Matthews had her Bible with her. She was serious about God. I saw this episode as a child and it really ministered to me and I was like wow! Vanity? She’s changed and not ashamed. That made a positive impact in my life just seeing her like this on this show.
Her Bible is huge! 🤓 I'm so glad she came to Christ.
How else but to help us see the kingdom in all its beauty...
Joan was extraordinary to let Denise Mathews back on again after turning her life around
She brought the Bible to the show! Hallelujah!
It’s interesting to look at this interview today - Denise is making a lot of sense on things like needing to remove herself from being used as a sexual object - taking drugs and abusing her body. I don’t know if her evangelicals approach would be well received nowadays, however her message is pure, Rest In Peace Denise.

One addiction exchanged for another. She needed guidance. She was gorgeous.
But this one to receive everlasting life. What a trade off!
IS GORGEOUS
@@mamiinc838 This one was a mental illness sadly.
I LOVE BE AN ADDICT FOR MY FATHER JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH
So true
...She said she hated herself she couldn't wait to go home & be alone so she could cry because she was miserable...l appreciate her transparency and her will to live in this interview😘
She was just happy and got excited for jesus and this right here motivates me to keep walking with the Lord my saviour Jesus Christ🙌🏾 Love you! Denise "vanity" Katrina Matthews R.I.P♥️
You can 1000% see the change in her!! Beautiful soul, may she forever Rest In Peace with Angels!!!💯🥰
IM HAPPY THAT BEFORE DENISE LEFT. THIS EARTH .SHE GOT SAVED. SHE FELL IN LOVE WITH JESUS....
""
You have the best comment on here! I give you two thumbs up(like) you said it right, she in love with the lord, I'm so happy she found rest in the Lord...Amen
Ms Denise is speaking the 100% Truth!......I'm so sorry that I didn't ever get to meet her and worship with her. But, I hope to meet her some day when we all transition. Maranatha.
The lady was SPECIAL praise God
Such a beautiful pure soul. And Im honestly inpressed at the level of spiritual discernment she had. Even more than people that claim to have been Christians their whole lives. Such an inspiration. ❤
She is in the arms of Jesus!
Thank you God! I understand her even if people are putting her down! I got it!~Amen!~
amen
Absolutely I got it
A touching testimony of" God's Amazing Grace ! Thank you, Jesus !
I love her passion for Christ! He is the only way. Picking up the Mantel, Woman of God! There are some soldiers left here that are doing Kingdom business! Jesus IS LORD!!!
R.I.P Denise!!!!
brb
+Shirley Matthews she will be missed and I'd rather remember her like this than Vanity though the former is what I've come to know and love
She is in heaven, unlike joan
Bullshit Vanity was her before she got on a mentally Ill drug-induced God trip....science fact.
Whys that?
Excellent testimony.
thanks for sharing this! love this woman
I love her. she is sooooo adorable :)
This interview gives me anxiety. Rest in Heaven Ms. Denise Matthews.
I’m a recovering Catholic. I found my spiritual satisfaction. I’m glad she found her spiritual satisfaction. She nearly died from drugs. I think Denise knew what she was up against during this interview. I’ll admit it took some getting used to seeing her fully dressed. Rest In Peace Vanity. I miss you.
I was drop dead in love "Vanity" - she was my poster girl - I even wrecked my car trying to see her signing autographs as she was promoting her album "Wild Animal" at Tower Records in Hollywood.. but to hear her talk about seeing Demon's Sleeping in her bed and seeing them walking around in her bedroom - is sort of disturbing to hear 30 some years later.. bcz she's saying this stuff... completely Sober.. and did she really need to bring her bible with her just to sit and talk with Joan Rivers?? I mean did she even notice that the "Demons" stopped sleeping in her bed and walking around in her bedroom after she stopped doing drugs?? poor girl ended up losing her life as a result of past drug addictions - but you can see by some of the things she says that happened to her - were also written into the script for Purple Rain .. RIP "Beautiful One".. "The Beautiful one's always smash the picture.. always.. every time"!!
Wht is wrong with Joan Rivers
Denise is explaining she's saved and thts all she needed. GOD BLESS DENISE R.I.P
Are you kidding. If she would have been in ANY OTHER talk show at that time (especially including oprah) she would have been absolutely ridiculed for her beliefs and them being so ironic since she is known for being a hyper-sexualized public figure. Joan Rivers felt bad for her and didn't want to humiliate her on her show, and trust me...she could have. Joan was always sweeter to guests that where otherwise ridiculed when they went on all the other talk shows. Like the Club Kids for exemple. She was a sweetheart to gay men and drag queen and especially women. So please...wake up and smell the real world. There are no demons or magic...theres just you.
@@NidalWorld shut up
This is awesome !!
Vanity was still.on drugs in 92 and had a overdose in 94 which changed her life forever.rip denise
There are no guarantees except for the blood of Christ who shed for us. Just because you get saved doesn't mean all your problems go away. He promises eternal life; not peace on earth.
+Roger Sands
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....
Roger Sands yup u speak the truth
Joan is like, "Ok, it's great that you're saved... but what kind of fun stuff did you Used to do?"
How truly amazing,. Her boldness is awesoome, Amen God is Great!!!
I am so glad that Denise turned her life over to God and became a evangelist. I miss Denise and Prince 2 beautiful souls 2gether again.🙏🏽
Vanity and Joan Rivers have both died now. I can't believe it really.
AndreaElizabeth100 Why? We all will die. We don't know if we will be here tomorrow. That's life it's temporary.
God is the ultimate healer and if you can do it for vanity he can do it for any of us 🙏💗💯
May she rest in God's peace. Not everyone will understand her experience, it's a personal relationship with God and it's so beautiful she left that life that was destroying her. So good of her to speak in public.
She did the work and connected to her spirit.
She was on the wrong show,the love she have for God is beautyful,Joan was really low key making fun of her,but thank God she continued to speak on her faith
girl she was whacked out on drugs.... period.
I dont think she was on the wrong show... Joan actually allowed her to project herself for God and actually listened to her while asking hard life questions that we all face... I think the stark contrast between the two women here allows us to make a clear distinction for the truth that we want to live or believe..Class interview and you got to give it to Joan for not being condescending whatsoever in her approach... Denise also did a great job here... Class interview for me!!!
She's so beautiful! I love her and always have since the 80s.
Hallelujah! Awesome testimony.
A true soldier of Christ
when vanity said she played it off and masked her pain and struggles it reminded me of Beyonce. I pray Beyonce comes to the Lord.
you're absolutely right. Satan is destorying Beyoncé and she doesn't know it.
+reader24 Wow. This is deep.
Word
What do you mean? What is wrong with bey
julianajuliana beyonce is always smiling in the public. But remember when jayz and solange got caught fighting in the elevator, and when they exited the building to get in their cars,Beyonce was smiling and pretending like nothing had happened, she had no idea at the time the whole world had just witnessed her in the elevator. Also Beyonce is Always smiling in the public nonstop! She is masking her pain. She is hiding her sorrows with that smile.I could be wrong but that's how I feel.
R.i.p. Babygirl glad u foung God proud she brought the Bible
I thank God for your life and your witness for Jesus Christ and your testimony Ms. Denise Matthews thank you for sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ 🙏🏽🌹
