I'm happy seeing two men having such a candid conversation. Hats off to you both for representing "good fathers". Blessings to you both. I'm praying you both find your future well deserved purpose partner soon
I found so much happiness listening to both of your honesty and authenticity. Even more so both of your laughter. You fed off each other yet still kept it clean. You would be wonderful big brothers to have to talk with to hear the perspectives you have and gleam wisdom from. All the guests seem like down to earth, hard working people who give from their hearts. The honesty they offer from their life experiences are pearls. The scriptures and word are woven in perfectly. Keep sharing- your audience will grow solid as long as God always gets the glory. Cheers/many blessings to all of you
This helped me see Two things! One that men are truly healing and want healthy relationships, And that just because a relationship doesn’t workout doesn’t mean you can’t still do life together! Friends are forever!!!!!!
I really really hope that the men are watching this. They NEED to hear this. I noticed when I'm out in public and I see black couples the men are almost ALWAYS with light(er) skinned women. They're passing over good attractive women every day just because they aren't light enough. This is way more common than people think. One thing I appreciated about Jay in this conversation is that he acknowledged his looks will fade one day as well as hers. Men don't seem to consider that. I also loved that he acknowledged that what his daughter accepts in her future relationships is a reflection of what she saw in him growing up. He seems to be very self aware. Kudos to Jay! Laterras, what you said about not opening up her package and that she's yours until her BF marries her... EVERY daughter deserves this type of covering from her Father. She even told you about her losing her v1rg1n1ty. 😩😩 Another great episode as always, Laterras. 👏👏
Well didn't you say you would pass by a dude because he didn't have a haircut? Didn't you say your friends wouldn't talk to me because of my UA-cam? Maybe those light skin women judged him off his character and not his UA-cam or haircut? Opposites attract. In my family, a lot of women are lighter and married dark-skinned men. Or if the woman was darker she married a light skin man. I mean I am sure most of them are not with the woman because she is light skin. Heck, I had a very light skin women tell me she wouldn't date me if I was light skin because she only dated dark brothers. Most women love a tall, dark, and handsome man. It's the norm. Women do it every day to short dudes. Millions of women bypass good men especially black women for height. I had a woman to tell me she rather die single then to date a short dude. Meanwhile, she already been divorce once to a man who was 6ft.lol. So whether it's light skin or height or UA-cam it's all surface level. So it sounds like the pot calling the kettle black because it is all looks related. You have any non judgemental friends?
Do you have one friend that will not judge me on UA-cam instead of real life? All I wanted was proof that these single, childless, in shape women exist. I wasn't being negative. I was being honest. Out of all this time, you just proved that women in Orlando judge without knowing you and why it's hard to date in Orlando. So can a brother get added to the friend group?
@@Rashaadthegr8 The lady who told you she'd rather die single than be with a short dude was more than likely just not attracted to you(or whatever man she was referring to). Most women won't flat out tell a man that she doesn't want to date him because she doesn't find him attractive (in case you haven't noticed, we aren't allowed to say that). We women don't care about height in the way YOU THINK we do. A man literally doesn't have to be 6 ft tall, we just prefer our man to be taller than we are because it makes us feel protected by him, like he's a covering. It's psychological. Imagine running for cover behind something that is smaller than you... The average height for women in the US is 5'4" and for man I believe it's 5'9" or 5'10." That makes most men taller than than most women. So therefore women don't HAVE to date men shorter than themselves. The solution to that is to intentionally go after women that are shorter than you.
@@Rashaadthegr8 and FYI my friends didn't make judgment about you without knowing you. They just didn't find you attractive. It had nothing to do with your character or the content on your channel. Idk what gym you go to but maybe you should switch because I run into plenty of in shape women at my gym.
@@jess_is Umm don't let UA-cam fool you I don't need makeup or filters on my pics. I look good and even better in real life. Again you love to assume. The lady w that I am talking about the actual first message to me was "What is a handsome man like you doing on this app." So it wasn't the looks. Alot of women may say that but I always ask for feedback whether it's a woman or a job. We had a decent conversation. Then she was like put a thumbs up emoji if you over 6ft. She was like I understand it is shallow but I refuse to be with anyone under 6ft. You never even showed proof of what these "friends" look like. And you don't even have a real pic in. your profile. I could be talking to a robot. You have been talking about these so-called "friends" for weeks. Wheres is the proof Jessica? lol. At least I am not scared to show my face. Lol the solution is to date women who are more evolved that know that height doesn't mean protection. And to date women who don't care about height, race, or distance. There is alot of women who rather die single then to date someone that lives in another city, another race, or shorter than them. But again only 30% of black people are married you do the math. This is stuff that can be researched very easily. Now I am not saying that is the only reason why marriage rates are so low but alot of women not just black care about stuff that don't even matter. Yes, the average woman and man are at those heights. Floyd Mayweather, Conner Mcgregor, Bruce Lee, and Mike Tyson are all under 6ft and none of your exes could beat them up. Let's keep it 100. Being tall doesn't make you bulletproof, doesn't make you a better man, and doesn't make you bulletproof. Most people don't fight these days anyways they use guns. it's not the spartan era. You don't have to be tall to own a gun or know martial arts or boxing. Yes I know a woman wants to be protected. But most women don't know the true meaning of protection because most of y'all never been truly protected. Every woman I ever met has either been lied to, beat up, cheated on or all three. But if he is lying, cheating and disrespecting you he is not covering you emotionally. If he doesn't pray for you and go to church with you he is not covering you spiritually. And if he has no savings, no job and no retirement, no will and no emergency savings, a negative net worth, or in debt he is not protecting you financially.
Hi Gentlemen! A friend of mine sent this to me, and I'm so glad she did! We are not in the same city, but oh how I wish there were more men with the heart, mind and soul that you are sharing! Be blessed and allow God to prepare her for you, you'll know because she won't oppress you!
1. America is #3 in the world in divorce. 2. 67% of marriages start in debt. 3. 50% of marriages end in divorce. 4. #1 cause. of divorce is finances. In conclusion, take care of your money and your character before getting married.
Great episode. It was filled with wisdom, transparency, laughter, and great representation of what fatherhood should be. Thank you both for such an enlightening conversation!
I love this episode. You guys are Hilarious. I love all the authentic humor. I was laughing so hard, I started snorting.🤣(I was like I don't even eat Pork.) Where did that come from?🤣🤣 Great work👏🏼❤️
You hung all the laundry out to dry. This was so enlightening and the laughs just kept coming 🤣 I love how you bring the word of God and show the relation to the discussion. This letter was everything 🙌🏿 ❤️
Well needed conversation... It is important for a father to speak into his daughter's life. 40 years later and as my father's caregiver, we finally got to a place where he speaks into my life. Another Great Podcast, Laterras .
This episode was entertaining, informative and enlightening all at the same time. Kudos to you Laterras for being the father you are to your daughter, we need more of that from fathers.
I didn't think that I would enjoy hearing these 2 guys have a conversation, but I laughed my way through it. It was good to hear these two reflect on the blessings and struggles of their fatherhood journey. It also gave me more insight into my relationship with my son and how imperative my choice of words are.
This is what a Healed and intentional Man looks like. Good job King 👑 🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️❤️🔥🔥 I decree & declare the right woman will have him stocking up on lotion in no time . 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😂😂😂
Great interview. The snippet selected for the introduction hit hard. There are so many black women who may be able to see ourselves as queens but never as princesses. In many cases, it is because we didn’t have the kind of relationship with a father where we knew we were protected, cherished and affirmed. Add on the lack of representation in films and books. Some of us need to reclaim the princess within.
Wow, thank you so much for this video. I have never laughed so hard! You two are comical but seriously brought the pain. Great content/insight into the mind of a man. ❤
Okay Jay, you were my fav on the show. I was hoping for you and Joy. But oh well! Good to see you here in our community. Thanks LT for this great episode...... Love you guys
Please give your guest a basket full of lotions 😂😂. Great conversation - I'm so glad he touched on colorism, it's really terrible 😞. I think if a lot of men had an open mind, and ditched their "type" they'll be pleasantly surprised!
Kudos to Laterras for always holding men's feet to the fire and demanding that they be transparent. I have gained so much insight from these podcasts. I think it is time you begin to feature guests outside of the US.
As I’m listening to every episode all over again, I catch something new that I missed the first time. I’m in a season of guarding my eyes and the scriptures shared was right on point.
Another great podcast Laterras! I really think it’s amazing to see father’s like you both because there are many people like myself who desired that but never had that in their lives. There is definitely a connection there with broken relationships that I have had because of that it my opinion. Thanks for the laughs and the lessons. God bless!🌸
This was another great podcast!!! Thank you! I truly Thank you for the honest conversations that you have on your podcasts! I lost my father when I was young. It was God who was in my corner to protect me. So, to hear you two talk about your daughters.I appreciate the grown men prospectives. The scriptures that were included in this podcast were so thought provoking. To hear grown men discuss God, women, & a fresh perspectives, it’s so refreshing. Thank you!! -Delilah
Hello Laterras 👋, and the Dear Future Wifey Family! I have been waiting for the new episode, refreshing the page often. I understand it takes a lot to produce the episodes, and I always appreciate your hard work and dedication (as well as your team's). I'm 12 mns in, back to listening.
This was an awesome episode!! I just loved this episode! The both of you are well-spoken and are true fathers to your little girls. Laterras, you and your daughter's relationship is so beautiful. I know it wasn't easy for you to hear she had lost her virginity but you handled it with grace. There was so many gems in this episode. It really is important to guard your eyes and trust God in this dating process. Otherwise, the devil will have you on a roller-coaster ride! I loved the letter. It was so beautiful! ❤
What an AWESOME episode!! I have to appreciate how you both spoke about your mothers. It is good to hear and know that the mother son relationship is valued and appreciated. It brought me to tears 😭 because I am raising my son as a single parent (widowed of military veteran). He’s a teenager and there are days I question if I am doing it right but God! It is the small parts that God confirms that I must keep going by things like you both speaking about your mothers. Thank you so much! God bless you both and your mothers. ♥️♥️🤗🤗 P.S. I am officially a blackbelt also. Lol 😉😆
Guarding your eyes is essential, everything you see is truth. I enjoyed watching two amazing men, speaking their truth in transparency, going through their healing process and revealing their journeys, and now being ready to receive. Your authenticity is fully on display and your intentionality prevalent. Thank you for choosing to share your thoughts and experiences to help men and women know that there is light on the other side and healing matters. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Another awesome episode Mr. Whitfield!!! 👏 👏🤩👏🎉👏🎉👏😍🎉👏
Y’all are too funny. It’s something about men and lotion 😂😂😂. I always had to wrestle my sons father down to grease him up lol I introduced him to in-shower lotion eventually . This gave me the giggles. Loved this episode.
Show up as your authentic self and stop using those "lotion filters" 🤣🤣🤣. I'm literally cracking up over here. I'm quick to FaceTime in a minute because baby these folks are running a muck lol. I really enjoyed hearing and seeing Jay's face shift while talking about his daughter and mother. Great episode gentlemen. May God continue ordering and blessing your footsteps 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.
I don’t think I ever edit my photos. Even when I used to wear makeup, I would wear it light enough so you could see my flaws still, I was always afraid to look like someone different to people. I used to say to myself, how will your husband recognize you if you don’t look like the woman in his dreams (my own thing). Even though my skin and figure aren’t perfect according to society’s standard, I show up as me on film or in person.
Love this series! ! What's next, guard your ears, cause many of us have been in bad relationships because we did not listen to the warnings, and many good relationships ended because they listened to untruthful words. And guard your mouth, that is a truck load, LOL! The bible says " out of the mouth flows what what the heart is full of" Luke 6:45. As much as people will show you how they see you, they will also tell you how they see you if you listen attentively. As much as our words build, we also destroy with it, the mouth should truly be used wisely. Congratulations on acquiring the land for Kingdom Royale, God is good and faithful!
Oh My goodness! I didn’t know Jay was so funny 😂. Thanks guys. I laughed the whole episode. Let me just say its refreshing to see young black men with so much wisdom
Awe, my friend in my head is on the show 😊. Great convo gentlemen. Appreciate the authenticity and transparency 👊🏽👊🏽I have boys so I’m taking notes. #BoyM❤️M 😊 Matt. 6:22-23 “Spiritual vision is our capacity to see clearly what God wants us to see the world from His point of view. But the spiritual insight can be easily clouded. Self-serving desires, interests, and goals block that vision. Serving God is the best way to restore it. A “good “ eye is one that is fixed on God”. From the Life Application Study Bible 😊 Great study Bible BTW 👍🏽
This was such a refreshing conversation! It is beautiful to hear the relationship you both have with your daughters, the example you are setting is admirable and valued. Keep doing God's work!
The laugh that erupted from me when he was talking about the 'ash filter' 😂😂😂😂 I'll be laughing at that for a very long time 🤣🤣 Great episode per usual sir. You continue to teach me. God bless you 🙏🏾
Wooow... 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯 I got emocional when Jay mentioned his daughter and she said, the princesses don't look like her.🥺💔 I really wish I was there with her. That's how I felt, in some point in my life, when I didn't know my identity in God and the only thing I found, it was the comparison of what society says who is better than who, according to race and color. 🤔 THAT'S SO BAD ABOUT HOW SOME PEOPLE THINK AND I WAS WRONG TOO, BECAUSE I BELIEVED IN THEIR OPINION, LETTING THEIR OPINION TO MAKE ME FEEL LESS. I've changed so much, over the years, it's not that I don't care so much about what people think of me, but I don't really care about it anymore like I used to. My connection with God is stronger every day, that I talk to Him about everything, and that's what has helped me become who I am. Day by day, I ask a question over and over again, "Father God, what do you think of me" and I smile because we are unique, imperfect, and perfect as God created us. I just try to be the best of myself. Guard your eyes... Is protecting the values of what we want in the person we want to share our life is very important. I learned to take my time getting to know the person, because only then do I know, if that's what I was looking for, without false expectations. I think once we know ourselves, we really know who we are, what we want and what we need, not just looking at the surface of someone's physique, or that list that we want that person to be. It is clear that IT WILL NEVER BE 100% EVERYTHING WE WANT. It is important to put in prayer for that ideal person we want in our life because sharing life with someone, is a yes or no of living in purpose or living an empty life without meaning of having lived. Thank you very much for this podcast Laterras, we are still in personal construction. 😅❤️
🤣😂🤣 47:59 Guys are so hilarious. 🤣 I knew it was going to end badly as soon as he said, "And my dad was a 3rd degree black belt... I found myself on the ground, against the wall, why can't I beat him even in my mind?" 🤣😂🤣 OMGosh! 💯🤣💯
"Mindset usually gets better not worse". " We are brainwashing ourselves to never show up as our authentic selves."👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Laterras! Every daughter needs an open father like you. Wow! I love that you're open with all of your children. Also, your dad is a cowboy and 3rd degree black belt 🤠 OMG! Can you interview him for Father's Day?! I really enjoy the DFW podcast! Now I'm curious, would YOU take a woman less physically appealing but had more in common with you? 🤔
I love the part about exhausting all options and fighting for something. Making a decision to remove yourself and start over isn’t a loss. You walk away with wisdom in my eyes that’s a win!🥇
Great dialogue! I stumbled across these videos the other day cleaning up, listening to music. So happens one of these videos came up, not really paying attention, as I'm cleaning I begin listening and have been binge watching since. I'll be sharing with my sisters, thanks keep the videos coming. Tuning in from South Carolina!!!
This episode is giving me life!!! So good to hear brothers talking about being intentional about dating. Thank you for keeping it LIT and not wasting peoples time! Whew Chile!!!
Truly enjoyed this episode. I Am my fathers only child and I can understand the dynamic of each of you #dadstodaughters I have such a bond with my father I was smiling from ear to ear just l listening to you both. Most young ladies pave their suitors based off of their fathers. Congratulations on being your daughters Superhero. Blessings on Blessings
Same issues this side of the world. Grew up hard as a dark skinned girl... strangely I got a bit lighter 😁 (still shocks my Mom). Now that I'm older I understand that it stems from oppression, it runs deeper than meets the eye. Anyway... I really appreciated this, there's a better future for our kids with Dad's like you gentlemen. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Up working and accepting the direction of this workshop…and then this episode plays…MY GOODNESS! So needed. My children will know, see and do better because their mother WILL DISPLAY BETTER. 🙌🏾❤️🙏🏾😭
I think most things are being catered to our children. I remember back in Jr. High I tried to smoke in our garage because the "dragon lady" was BEAUTIFUL!!!! 😆
@@jaybrad1070 I had one, too. 🥴😂 Mine was cute tho! Your narration of that awkward stage was hilarious. But look at ya fine self now! Thanks for sharing your journey publicly!
This was a good one. As always the episodes are getting better. I thank God for that. I was thinking about the title or focus point of this episode. The first thing that came to me was Eve. The bible said she saw the fruit and it looked good to her (paraphrased.) So many times we take a bite out of things because it looks good but at the end it will cause us death. I personally have subjected myself to things because I was only looking at the surface. I thank God for growth. Now about being your authentic self. A very special friend of mine dealt with this because she thought I wanted a certain type of woman. Once she overcame that and presented her authentic self we had an amazing time together.
It's some real people that you have as guests on your show. Laughing the entire time... through this one. Authenticity is rare but on your show it's pretty normal, thank you 👍
Shalom men of God and many blessings to you both and to your beautiful families (personal/ministry). As always, beautiful content and the dialogue is everything. I enjoyed the peace and contentment from the environment you both created on this podcast. And I agree with you Mr. Whitfield, Mr. Bradley's illustration for Matthew 6:22-23 is on point. Because when the eye is "single" it reveals that it is not "married" or in "covenant" with everything it sees or with things that are considered as outside (negative, unhealthy) influences. An eye that is single is full of light because the eye is in intimate alignment with The Holy Spirit and The Word of God. Our eyes are set in our face in the horizontal position because we are created to see things the way the breath of God is expressed and released, which is from the horizontal position, because breath comes from the mouth, and the mouth is also horizontal in position. We see life through what God speaks and how He teaches and instructs us about life. Even the shape of our eyes give prophetic language to how we are built to use vision and insight. And by the eyes being in an "almond shaped" form reveals how fragrant and fruitful our vision is when the eye is utilized through The Spirit of God and not through the soul and the flesh. And the almond shape also reveal how our eyes are not designed to take in everything we see. The almond formation of the eye speaks of the importance of guarding the eyes because our vision cannot be married to things that identify with darkness, destruction, and demise. Our eyes are small for a reason. The eye is not built to consume a lot of stuff, especially things that are unhealthy. And thank you for allowing me to share this with you. Shalom
I'm happy seeing two men having such a candid conversation. Hats off to you both for representing "good fathers". Blessings to you both. I'm praying you both find your future well deserved purpose partner soon
Thank you. Had a great time 🙏🏾

Glad Jay was able to discover, uncover and recover his eyebrow! Such an impactful episode, great work.
Simultaneously you're exposing the depths of our deception, our fears, and our vanity. 🤔😌😒🧐🥺

In many cases, it is because we didn’t have the kind of relationship with a father where we knew we were protected, cherished and affirmed. Add on the lack of representation in films and books. Some of us need to reclaim the princess within.
Wow, thank you so much for this video. I have never laughed so hard! You two are comical but seriously brought the pain. Great content/insight into the mind of a man. ❤
Okay Jay, you were my fav on the show. I was hoping for you and Joy. But oh well! Good to see you here in our community. Thanks LT for this great episode...... Love you guys
Please give your guest a basket full of lotions 😂😂.
Great conversation - I'm so glad he touched on colorism, it's really terrible 😞.
I think if a lot of men had an open mind, and ditched their "type" they'll be pleasantly surprised!
So true🙏🏾
Amen
Kudos to Laterras for always holding men's feet to the fire and demanding that they be transparent. I have gained so much insight from these podcasts. I think it is time you begin to feature guests outside of the US.
As I’m listening to every episode all over again, I catch something new that I missed the first time. I’m in a season of guarding my eyes and the scriptures shared was right on point.
Another great podcast Laterras! I really think it’s amazing to see father’s like you both because there are many people like myself who desired that but never had that in their lives. There is definitely a connection there with broken relationships that I have had because of that it my opinion. Thanks for the laughs and the lessons. God bless!🌸
This was another great podcast!!! Thank you! I truly Thank you for the honest conversations that you have on your podcasts! I lost my father when I was young. It was God who was in my corner to protect me. So, to hear you two talk about your daughters.I appreciate the grown men prospectives.
The scriptures that were included in this podcast were so thought provoking.
To hear grown men discuss God, women, & a fresh perspectives, it’s so refreshing.
Thank you!!

This was an excellent interview. He was truly genuine and one of a kind. 💕
It’s the letters at the end for me. Authentic. I believe you. Great episode!
Hello Laterras 👋, and the Dear Future Wifey Family! I have been waiting for the new episode, refreshing the page often. I understand it takes a lot to produce the episodes, and I always appreciate your hard work and dedication (as well as your team's). I'm 12 mns in, back to listening.
Same here 🤗
@@justinashealthyghanaianmeals Right?!!! 👊 I'm glad you are the same way, and understand 🙂
This was an awesome episode!! I just loved this episode! The both of you are well-spoken and are true fathers to your little girls. Laterras, you and your daughter's relationship is so beautiful. I know it wasn't easy for you to hear she had lost her virginity but you handled it with grace. There was so many gems in this episode. It really is important to guard your eyes and trust God in this dating process. Otherwise, the devil will have you on a roller-coaster ride! I loved the letter. It was so beautiful! ❤
What an AWESOME episode!! I have to appreciate how you both spoke about your mothers. It is good to hear and know that the mother son relationship is valued and appreciated. It brought me to tears 😭 because I am raising my son as a single parent (widowed of military veteran). He’s a teenager and there are days I question if I am doing it right but God! It is the small parts that God confirms that I must keep going by things like you both speaking about your mothers. Thank you so much! God bless you both and your mothers. ♥️♥️🤗🤗 P.S. I am officially a blackbelt also. Lol 😉😆
Get it, black belt!!!!
Lol! I'm gonna need y'all to put some lotion, Shea butter something on 😂❤. Loving this interview!
LOL!!! Old school VASELINE!! It will never fail you!
I truly enjoyed this conversation.
I smiled through the entire episode.
It’s the transparency for me. 🖤
We had a great time.
Enjoyed the conversation… Guard your eyes .. noted.
Hahahahaha lotion filter! I am out here laughing loud, I am crying 😂😂😂😂😂
Guarding your eyes is essential, everything you see is truth. I enjoyed watching two amazing men, speaking their truth in transparency, going through their healing process and revealing their journeys, and now being ready to receive. Your authenticity is fully on display and your intentionality prevalent. Thank you for choosing to share your thoughts and experiences to help men and women know that there is light on the other side and healing matters. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Another awesome episode Mr. Whitfield!!! 👏 👏🤩👏🎉👏🎉👏😍🎉👏
This was dope. Just a cool, honest, supportive conversation between brothers
THAT WHAT UP BRO ! GOOD TO SEE YOU!
Yes that mindset is the key. Thanks for having Jay on. I watch him And Joy’s podcast it’s good!
Thank you for tuning in 🎉. See you tonight on our live episode
Y’all are too funny. It’s something about men and lotion 😂😂😂. I always had to wrestle my sons father down to grease him up lol I introduced him to in-shower lotion eventually . This gave me the giggles. Loved this episode.
Right!!
That Scripture was so amazing for me. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Will be sharing this with the women and men in my life. This was a candidly great discussion.
Show up as your authentic self and stop using those "lotion filters" 🤣🤣🤣. I'm literally cracking up over here. I'm quick to FaceTime in a minute because baby these folks are running a muck lol.
I really enjoyed hearing and seeing Jay's face shift while talking about his daughter and mother. Great episode gentlemen. May God continue ordering and blessing your footsteps 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.
Loved seeing your father's hearts, thanks again for another LIT conversation!
I don’t think I ever edit my photos. Even when I used to wear makeup, I would wear it light enough so you could see my flaws still, I was always afraid to look like someone different to people. I used to say to myself, how will your husband recognize you if you don’t look like the woman in his dreams (my own thing). Even though my skin and figure aren’t perfect according to society’s standard, I show up as me on film or in person.
You TWO Beautiful Brother’s keeping it REAL about guarding your eyes 👁👁 🧏🏾♀️💯💯💯🗣✨🔥🔥🔥
My favorite part was Laterras sharing about his relationship with his daughter. So sweet!
He taught me some things for sure 🙏🏾
@@jaybrad1070 ❤ Y'all seem like great dads. I saw y'all ride bikes in the cold to Whataburger. Awww!
@@lhaynes4548 lol. My baby girl had me out there cold for real, only to get some fries!! lol
Love this series! ! What's next, guard your ears, cause many of us have been in bad relationships because we did not listen to the warnings, and many good relationships ended because they listened to untruthful words.
And guard your mouth, that is a truck load, LOL! The bible says " out of the mouth flows what what the heart is full of" Luke 6:45. As much as people will show you how they see you, they will also tell you how they see you if you listen attentively. As much as our words build, we also destroy with it, the mouth should truly be used wisely.
Congratulations on acquiring the land for Kingdom Royale, God is good and faithful!
Oh My goodness! I didn’t know Jay was so funny 😂. Thanks guys. I laughed the whole episode. Let me just say its refreshing to see young black men with so much wisdom
This was a great conversation. Y’all had me on the floor laughing!!
Awe, my friend in my head is on the show 😊. Great convo gentlemen. Appreciate the authenticity and transparency 👊🏽👊🏽I have boys so I’m taking notes. #BoyM❤️M 😊
Matt. 6:22-23
“Spiritual vision is our capacity to see clearly what God wants us to see the world from His point of view. But the spiritual insight can be easily clouded. Self-serving desires, interests, and goals block that vision. Serving God is the best way to restore it. A “good “ eye is one that is fixed on God”.
From the Life Application Study Bible 😊 Great study Bible BTW 👍🏽
Happy Anniversary on Friday. Wonderful episode
Dang.....so funny! I loved all the funny stories told. Thanks! Two Kings keepin it real.
....am going straight on my IG to check that explore stuff.... great conversation Mr Whitfield ❣️
Great job gentlemen!! I love your transparency. 🙏🏾❤
This was such a refreshing conversation! It is beautiful to hear the relationship you both have with your daughters, the example you are setting is admirable and valued. Keep doing God's work!
Thank you
Thank you.
The laugh that erupted from me when he was talking about the 'ash filter' 😂😂😂😂
I'll be laughing at that for a very long time 🤣🤣
Great episode per usual sir.
You continue to teach me.
God bless you 🙏🏾
Don't fall for the filter like I did. lol. Had me with no edges for a solid year!!
Blessings
🤣 😂 😃
Wooow... 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯
I got emocional when Jay mentioned his daughter and she said, the princesses don't look like her.🥺💔 I really wish I was there with her.
That's how I felt, in some point in my life, when I didn't know my identity in God and the only thing I found, it was the comparison of what society says who is better than who, according to race and color. 🤔
THAT'S SO BAD ABOUT HOW SOME PEOPLE THINK AND I WAS WRONG TOO, BECAUSE I BELIEVED IN THEIR OPINION, LETTING THEIR OPINION TO MAKE ME FEEL LESS.
I've changed so much, over the years, it's not that I don't care so much about what people think of me, but I don't really care about it anymore like I used to.
My connection with God is stronger every day, that I talk to Him about everything, and that's what has helped me become who I am.
Day by day, I ask a question over and over again, "Father God, what do you think of me" and I smile because we are unique, imperfect, and perfect as God created us. I just try to be the best of myself.
Guard your eyes... Is protecting the values of what we want in the person we want to share our life is very important.
I learned to take my time getting to know the person, because only then do I know, if that's what I was looking for, without false expectations.
I think once we know ourselves, we really know who we are, what we want and what we need, not just looking at the surface of someone's physique, or that list that we want that person to be. It is clear that IT WILL NEVER BE 100% EVERYTHING WE WANT.
It is important to put in prayer for that ideal person we want in our life because sharing life with someone, is a yes or no of living in purpose or living an empty life without meaning of having lived.
Thank you very much for this podcast Laterras, we are still in personal construction. 😅❤️
Lotion filter!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
🤣😂🤣 47:59 Guys are so hilarious. 🤣 I knew it was going to end badly as soon as he said, "And my dad was a 3rd degree black belt... I found myself on the ground, against the wall, why can't I beat him even in my mind?" 🤣😂🤣 OMGosh! 💯🤣💯
This is the most that I have laughed when watching these videos. So hilarious! 😂
"Mindset usually gets better not worse". "
We are brainwashing ourselves to never show up as our authentic selves."👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Laterras! Every daughter needs an open father like you. Wow! I love that you're open with all of your children. Also, your dad is a cowboy and 3rd degree black belt 🤠 OMG! Can you interview him for Father's Day?! I really enjoy the DFW podcast! Now I'm curious, would YOU take a woman less physically appealing but had more in common with you? 🤔
It all depends
@@DearFutureWifey I’m laughing so hard. I won’t ask follow up questions.😂 Thanks for your honesty! Shout out to your future wife👌🏾
I saw LT’s video piece on finding his grandfather and let me tell you. I love his dad! His laugh is out of this world. I want to meet him one day.
I love the part about exhausting all options and fighting for something. Making a decision to remove yourself and start over isn’t a loss. You walk away with wisdom in my eyes that’s a win!🥇
Great dialogue! I stumbled across these videos the other day cleaning up, listening to music. So happens one of these videos came up, not really paying attention, as I'm cleaning I begin listening and have been binge watching since. I'll be sharing with my sisters, thanks keep the videos coming. Tuning in from South Carolina!!!
Thank you so much @meociagolston. Be sure to subscribe
Thank you both! Another great episode! 🤩
Another awesome 'man talk'💪🏾! Thanks sir.
GROWTH CONVERSATION… LOVE THIS 💪🏾❤️🙏🏾🤴🏽👸🏽
I have learned and laughed through this entire episode and I haven’t even finished watching it. Wow!!!
This episode is giving me life!!! So good to hear brothers talking about being intentional about dating. Thank you for keeping it LIT and not wasting peoples time! Whew Chile!!!
love the dad daughter talk!!!!! that you both share
Truly enjoyed this episode. I Am my fathers only child and I can understand the dynamic of each of you #dadstodaughters
I have such a bond with my father I was smiling from ear to ear just l listening to you both. Most young ladies pave their suitors based off of their fathers.
Congratulations on being your daughters Superhero.
Blessings on Blessings
Same issues this side of the world. Grew up hard as a dark skinned girl... strangely I got a bit lighter 😁 (still shocks my Mom). Now that I'm older I understand that it stems from oppression, it runs deeper than meets the eye. Anyway... I really appreciated this, there's a better future for our kids with Dad's like you gentlemen. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Up working and accepting the direction of this workshop…and then this episode plays…MY GOODNESS! So needed. My children will know, see and do better because their mother WILL DISPLAY BETTER. 🙌🏾❤️🙏🏾😭
I think most things are being catered to our children. I remember back in Jr. High I tried to smoke in our garage because the "dragon lady" was BEAUTIFUL!!!! 😆
I can watch the booth of you again. I had so much laughter❤❤
This video was full of gems....💜💜
Fun discussion refreshing I enjoyed this thoroughly.
I am so ready for this. Thank you Laterras!!!😊
Awesome, awesome, awesome Podcast‼ I laughed and saw the transparency of your hearts. Ty for being real and authentic.
Before I came on he told me the rules were to keep it lit. Im glad you enjoyed.
This episode had me cracking up!🤣 Its so good to see men who are great leaders for their children!
He's funny. "And I had a Jheri Curl!"
That was a hard stage 🤦🏾♂️
@@jaybrad1070 I had one, too. 🥴😂 Mine was cute tho! Your narration of that awkward stage was hilarious. But look at ya fine self now! Thanks for sharing your journey publicly!
The lotion filter comment was too funny!!!
This had me rollin!! Ya'll are too funny and extremely wise.
This was a good one. As always the episodes are getting better. I thank God for that. I was thinking about the title or focus point of this episode. The first thing that came to me was Eve. The bible said she saw the fruit and it looked good to her (paraphrased.) So many times we take a bite out of things because it looks good but at the end it will cause us death. I personally have subjected myself to things because I was only looking at the surface. I thank God for growth. Now about being your authentic self. A very special friend of mine dealt with this because she thought I wanted a certain type of woman. Once she overcame that and presented her authentic self we had an amazing time together.
Much Respect re: Your Wisdom in steadily Affirming and Protecting your daughter!!!☺🎉🎊🏆 👏
It's some real people that you have as guests on your show. Laughing the entire time... through this one. Authenticity is rare but on your show it's pretty normal, thank you 👍
Then Jay you better use coconut oil 😒😂😂😂 great pod guys 🖤
Divorce is a big hairy monster!!!Something I don’t want to go through ever again. It will challenge every emotion there is.
Shalom men of God and many blessings to you both and to your beautiful families (personal/ministry).
As always, beautiful content and the dialogue is everything. I enjoyed the peace and contentment from the environment you both created on this podcast. And I agree with you Mr. Whitfield, Mr. Bradley's illustration for Matthew 6:22-23 is on point.
Because when the eye is "single" it reveals that it is not "married" or in "covenant" with everything it sees or with things that are considered as outside (negative, unhealthy) influences. An eye that is single is full of light because the eye is in intimate alignment with The Holy Spirit and The Word of God. Our eyes are set in our face in the horizontal position because we are created to see things the way the breath of God is expressed and released, which is from the horizontal position, because breath comes from the mouth, and the mouth is also horizontal in position.
We see life through what God speaks and how He teaches and instructs us about life.
Even the shape of our eyes give prophetic language to how we are built to use vision and insight. And by the eyes being in an "almond shaped" form reveals how fragrant and fruitful our vision is when the eye is utilized through The Spirit of God and not through the soul and the flesh. And the almond shape also reveal how our eyes are not designed to take in everything we see. The almond formation of the eye speaks of the importance of guarding the eyes because our vision cannot be married to things that identify with darkness, destruction, and demise. Our eyes are small for a reason. The eye is not built to consume a lot of stuff, especially things that are unhealthy. And thank you for allowing me to share this with you. Shalom
Great interview helping me heal
That's so true we have brainwashed ourselves to edit our pictures before we post!
I LOVE HOW JAY LOVES HIM MOM💫
THAT REEEEALLY HELPS ME💪🏿⚡️
chile laterras just be ministering all smooth and subtle like i love it
