The father I never had! Pastor Blakes got me out of a narcissistic relationship that held me captive for 3 years! Thank you for your wisdom and guidance 🙏🏽
All I can say is that I broke free from a 10 year soul tie because of this man's teachings. Such a blessing to the generation of young ladies who are healing. Specifically the line "don't be a silly woman!". I stopped being silly. 😂😂 Thank you, all the way from South Africa!
Congrats! I'm breaking free from a two year relationship, we have a kid together. Not easy but neither was being with him! I went back and remembered quickly why I left. When I was alone God showed me I was fully capable of living without a man I was once so addicted to. Once you get a taste of peace. Saying goodbye starts feeling like freedom.
“… queens are focused on self mastery…she combs through her history. She locates and disengages all of her triggers. She knows who she is.” Whew, just minutes in 🙌🏽🤓
That is how my life changed. Was a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Reading the Word. Remembering the word, and then responding to the Word. I started making sure my choices were in alignment of what the Word says.
Thanks for bringing in RC Blakes... And that right there is the game changer!!! Aligning with His Word....you can't go wrong❤🎉🎉🎉🎉 The right man will be loyal and make you feel emotionally safe! If he does the "50/50 story" he is not ready to provide fully for you....thank you!
I love pastor RC Blake's, he help me get through my hardest times and reminded me who I am and what I bring to the table. How God uses me and what is expected of myself per the Bible. ❤ he and Lisa are my favorite couple to resemble. I strive to be a high value for myself.
I love Pastor Blake. As woman we must first know our Lord and seek His divine will as daughters in Christ. Knowing His word and seeking His perfect will and guidance through prayer. God provides when we put our faith and trust in Him, and no one else. change us to be our best selves are critical before engaging in a healthy marriage. And this also applies to men. Work on your relationship with God and the rest will fall in place.
Knowing your value as the daughter of God, a woman should not marry a man who is not a leader, dis- honors and dis- respects her, cannot be trusted, and didn't make her feel safe and secure. 🙏
thats my pastor!! its so cool to see him have such an impact on so many. his Queenology book includes a very inspiring poem called The Queen by Jan K Thomas: “…You will no longer be a victim- you have inherited a life you have not seen. Lift up your head and adjust your crown. You, my dear, are a Queen!…Your worth is far more than any jewel; no one could ever take your place. You were designed by God as an original, to conquer whatever you face…Your touch waters empty souls, your voice encourages us to thrive. Arise now and take your rightful place; we need our Queens to survive. You are the fire, the rock, the rose, and the stream. You are the hope, the truth, the lotus, and the dream. Get ready to walk in the path you’ve not seen. You are royalty and power…You are a QUEEN.” ✨ i hope this blesses somebody
This was an eye opener for me!! As a Man of 4 girls and married to a Beautiful Queen!! I’ve learned so many lessons in this show today!! Thank you all for the support, LOVE and contribution to the betterment of the world!! 🙏🏽❤️💪🏾
I forgive my dad for making me feel my femininity, womanhood was sinful or shameful before I even understood what it really meant. Without a father in my life, I feel exposed and vulnerable. Not just after his passing, I started feeling that way after a family member molested me and it was dismissed when I was a preteen, so the majority of my life. I’m on the journey to healing still at 35.
Forgive him, forgive everyone, even the one that wronged you the most. It hurts to feel betrayed by the closest to you, yet pray for them and forgive them, for your own sake, cause you deserve that healing. Don't hold that burden in your heart, nobody is worth of you walking heavy trough the life.There is nothing that God can't do for you. He loves you. He is closer to us then out jugular vein. ❤
@@jasminasinanbegovic6225you’re right baby even though that’s so much easier said than done. She probably finds it hard to trust anyone ever since that happened. Situations like that are very likely to cause PTSD. God bless her and I pray someday she fully recovers and is able to find that forgiveness you speak of, if she hasn’t already.🙏🏽
@@bonafide_forever for sure it's not easy, I am well aware of how hardships look like, yet that bravery she has to master in order for her to live freely. She also doesn't have to trust anyone instantly, give herself a time, move slowly, people show themselves very quickly trough their behavior. Intuition, control over your own emotions, healthy distance and logic is unbeatable ingredients of faith. She can do it and way beyond. She is already a survivor 💪
“If as a man You live your life so consistently that she never even has a trust issue. She never had to question you bc You practice Voluntary accountability. small acts of openness. simply leaving your phone open or giving a pass code. Simple acts give so much Safety to a woman that’s necessary.“ whew 😮💨 Let me tell you, you’re so mature and healing to a woman’s soul! You better teach!! Amazing work.
I am part of Pastor Rc Blakes cyber church. Not saying there isn’t anyone else with a platform that isn’t good to listen to, but I don’t recommend anyone but him and Tony Gaskins for relationship advice at the moment. Through Christ, Pastor RC Blakes changed my life, and I am honored to say that I am now one of the Queens he has described. An Amazing man of God!! Love him and Lady Lisa!❤
The lord led me to PASTOR BLAKES … …….my GOD this man of GOD has guided me to the areas that I needed to look at to promote healing I am 41 years old and never been more filled and healed in my life thank you Lord Jesus for this man …..and thank you pastor for listening to Jesus and know where you are needed ❤️❤️❤️
Ahh, I’ve been saying to myself for a while that I hope I see Pastor Blakes on here. This man has wisdom that can only come from above. I discovered him back in 2017 not long after he had started “the father daughter talk”. I had just come out of relationship and was so heartbroken. He was one of the voices that kept me confident and strong to not go back. So glad I didn’t…One word that I will never forget from him is, “trust is an honour earned, not a gift given”. I also love his story about how his wife handled him not committing, learned a lot from that. May God bless you and keep you Sir. ❤️
Not until my 30s did I comprehensively see the damage that not only not having my father growing up, but then having an abusive stepfather has impacted my whole experience and value myself as a woman. When I sit and be very analytical about decisions I made and most that I thought were good were cultivated from broken pieces of my fatherless heart. RC Blakes have really helped me see so many characteristics that I need to develop further to access a better version of myself. Thank God for these talks
I LOVE this man, he is an amazing father figure and gave me father daughter talks that I never had with my real father . Thank you for bringing him on!!
I lost my dad a month ago. I loved him so much because I knew he loved me. He was my compass. He did not raise me, but he made up for it in my adult life. I miss him so much because I knew he loved me. If no other man loved me, I knew he did. I miss him so much.
RC Blakes is one of the few who can be long-winded and it actually feel good to listen to. Very good word and advice today!! Taking notes!!! Thanks Hardly Initiated!!! 👏🏽
Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her.
its difficult to let go of someone you love, i was in a similar situation, my relationship of 12 years ended, but i couldn't just let her go i did all i could to get her back, i had to seek the help of a spiritual counsellor who helped me bring her back..
It’s a soul tie. Because you weren’t married just sharing demons and your demons miss her demons. They want that other house to embody sometimes and it’s gone. My be with anyone in sin? Waste a woman’s time and not marry her? A man that can’t properly care for a woman and her whole body doesn’t deserve one.
I never met my Father and once I started listening to Pastor Blakes I was able to heal from trauma, I actually wanted to heal, instead of just surviving, so, bless you man of God! You opened my eyes to the games men play! Real talk , and changing the way I think, my heart was opened to accept my flaws and grow from them because I really honed into the Lord, my life forever changed once I really relied on God, and forgave myself. And first lady Blakes thank you too Queen.
I've been listening to Mr. Blakes for 2 years. He's helped me in so many ways. When he said, "I brought the vision, grind, and the safe space," that's what makes his marriage healthy and successful.
So grateful y’all finally brought him on!! We love you Bishop!! Thank you for your paternal love & wisdom. You & Lady Blake’s are such a blessing to us all. Keep going! 🙏🏾✨❤️
Grateful that Pastor RC's page lead me to this interview. It's beautiful to see as a guest but host and lead the discussion with these Gentlemen. It sure was a pleasure to receive. Great Build Kings. Peace and Blessings 👑🙏🏽✨️
I’m so grateful you brought Bishop on the show, our society needs more of these positive influences that represents God, marriage, family, and authenticity.
RC Blakes is one of the best out there hands down. Not only does he make valid points but uses scripture to support what he is saying! For me personally that’s a plus. He is biased and doesn’t male or female bash!❤
Yall delivered!!! Thank you for bringing on one of the most prominent and healthy leaders in the relationship conversation. RC Blakes’ message truly blessed me
Bishop Blakes is the true definition of a good father, husband, and man of God. I respect him so much. God led me to his ministry as I went through my healing process. His teachings have been instrumental in helping me find my queenology. He is truly a blessing to this generation.
Thank you Hardly Initiated for featuring RC Blakes! He is absolutely awesome and has changed my life. He helped me find myself in the word of GOD and I’m a better woman for it.
This.man really helped me on many phases of my healing and in this world is the ONLY pastor I really lean into. So happy he's on the show! He's a real one and a fully accountable man.
This video from Pastor RC Blakes really resonated with me. Starting at the 46 minute mark. It made me think about a guy I was truly interested in a few years ago. His words made me understand why he's always behaved the way he does towards me. My eyes are open. Because I've always been the pursuer . Even though I knew he liked me, but I pursued him which ultimately probably turned him off. I never plan on reaching out to him again. And not out of bitterness but just because I know better now. And I'm going to be doing just what RC said. Working on myself and just being prepared.
YES Sir 🙌🏾 what a great way to end the year! Com on RC with the word: Where there is no vision, the people perish 👏🏾 My relationship with the word Is growing daily! Thank you Pastor 🙏🏾
RC BLAKES the father I literally never had! You are always on time! I give so much thanks to you for getting me through some of the roughest times in my life. I also thank you Hardly Initiated for listening to your audience. This is certainly bringing your platform to such an impactful level.
This podcast just went to another level. Yall been listening as we all been asking. The bishop RC literally the number one requested guest. I cant wait to hear this.
Thank you for bringing Pastor RC Blakes. This man helped me get through the toughest time in my life, he taught me things that my dad didn't. He is the template of what a king stands for . I have so much gratitude for him.
This is eye opening. It was hard to hear in the beginning as a mother to 3 daughters it worries me what my children will miss out on because of the absence of their father it brought me to tears. This message was truly felt from beginning to end. Blessings to RC, Ryan & Tysean 🫶🏾
I am in your situation. I have a set of twins, girls. They are now in their teenage years and I pray that God helps us to raise them in way that will make them to make the right decisions. 🙏❤️
This was absolutely enlightening and thought provoking! Even as a married woman! But I'll say this, the "sticky and tricky" part of the woman "using her resources to support HIS vision" is, how does she trust that he may not leave her ONCE he starts to see the fruit of his labor that SHE HELPED to or totally financed. That being supportive piece is very scary.
This was the best show for me ever. I had to learn everything he said on my own. As a "Queen" at the age of 47 who married my husband 12 years ago, and whose father was absent and abusive, had to learn this on my own. I am trying to find avenues to teach other young women this. Simply put a relationship with Christ will help you with the relationship with yourself and others, when an earthly father is absent.
HI is an amazing program with needful content. Bishop RC Blakes is the ultimate Earthly Father to every woman who listens to his guidance in teaching. I listen to him daily and if I miss a day of not hearing his voice in teaching, I feel like I have not talked to My Dad that day. I love you Bishop and First Lady Lisa Blakes for your ministry to Womanhood.
KEPT OUR LIFESTYLE AT A POINT THAT I COULD AFFORD IT!!! PREEEEACH 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 anything else would be DELUSIONAL & SUPER INCONSIDERATE Ladies!!! #MATURITY #WISDOM #VIRTUE
I thoroughly enjoyed the content. Father-daugher talks are an essential part of maturing into a healthy, well-versed individual. I myself never having a father to provide self-esteem or to nuture a non-sexual relationship with a man. This hits very close to home. Thriving each day to become a better person and seeking a much closer walk with the Father! I thank God for Pastor RC Blakes, sister Lisa Blakes . Big ups to you guys allowing a safe place for us fatherless daughters to obtain knowledge and perspective!!!
RC BLAKES is an absolute legend. A spiritual father to so many women and man. So so many did not have role model to teach self worth so these teachings are priceless. Lisa story @ 16:00 ❤ bless her courage
31:00 Yes, Bishop Blakes! We want a safe place from men. And I, personally, will try my best to be his safe place. Reading the Word, reading books that align with the Word and doing inner work has helped me realize what I should change to support, respect and love men in a way they’ll receive it. I’m practicing with my father, brothers, male co-workers, brothers at church, etc.
I've seen a few of their videos, but this might be the first where the hosts listened and had VERY little to say... not that their dialogues and discussions in other vids were ill-timed or not well received, but they literally hung off his every word. He was fatherly and wise, and he responded with intent. Prior to the discussion, they respected him based on who he is. During the discussion, their respect for him increased tenfold based on how he commanded their attention. And he did it effortlessly.
Thank you for the awesome gospel and excellent way Pastor ❤️🙏 RC BLAKES TEACHES on how we are to function & respect, care , honir each other & treat our selves we great value, love, respect & 💋💟🎉 not settled for being toxic, dysfunctional, bitter & broken 💔 & rember that getting healed, self loved, mature & walk in righteous 💪 with GOD as the King & savior uding his bible word, HOLY SPIRIT🎉 & be giuded in good decisions and good results in life 🧬🙏 & relationship goals 🎉🎉🎉😂😅
This was a wonderful conversation amongst real men! I appreciate you young gentlemen and Pastor Blake’s this really helped me understand who I am in Jesus in order to become a better wife and Queen! God bless you all for the message 🙏🏾
This video popped up on my UA-cam Bishop Blakes is a God send since finding him on UA-cam many years ago he is a father figure to me and teacher as a born again believer ,I never had a relationship with my physical father he was a malignant narcissist there was no relationship no connection nothing he just cared about himself only and my mother was toxic I grew up in dysfunction after my father died I winded up marrying a narcissist after 3 years I left and filed for divorce I thank God for giving me strength to get out of that abuse 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for this. Pastor Blakes is a global treasure. His seminars need to come to South Africa in all honesty. Blessings on blessings to the entire team.
13:42 My father was pastored by RC Blakes Sr (RC’s father, a very kind and sweet man!), who married my parents, but he died before he could impart a lot of these things into me. But GOD and my MOTHER. And my village! And ME. 🙏🏾 Many men and women have fathers who lead them astray or pass down trauma and misogyny and brokenness. Having a father is not enough or some sort of sure path to healthiness and wholeness. I know many women whose self esteem is low because of their fathers. Every woman has to do her own work to reach the place of inner self-love and wholeness RC has described. No one can give that to you.
🙏🏾🦋 glad to see Pastor Blakes sharing a convo here. First time visitor of this channel. Good message. There's so much negative, toxic, & incorrect things spread through social media that's infecting society, especially younger generations, as Pastor Blakes mentions. This is why it's important for the Blakes ministry and positive platforms, God ordained platforms, to talk about these topics responsibly, maturity. The importance of a father role, yes- God uses Pastor Blakes as a Godly husband and father, to facilitate messages from our Heavenly Father. Those who can't see the problem in our society are simply part of the problem. 35k views and only 3k likes, wow!? Keep following and doing God's will.
I love RC Blakes. Thank you Lord for using him. He helped me get clarity after being betrayed by “friends” and the narcissist I was in a relationship for 4 years. That soul-tie left me completely broken but someone sent me RC video and I literally studied those videos. They helped me on my healing journey to find Christ who is at the center of my life!!! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
RC BLAKES my spiritual father! I have listened to ALL of his messages. He is truly heaven sent so was this message. I’m grateful for his life. He is truly saving the lives of lost woman. I respect him even more how he handled his wife and her trauma Amazing!!! ❤❤❤

The father I never had! Pastor Blakes got me out of a narcissistic relationship that held me captive for 3 years! Thank you for your wisdom and guidance 🙏🏽

There's nothing on this planet comparable to a REAL godly man, who is a good husband and family man. (PERIOD)
Yesssss, sis!
Amen!
Amen to that ❤🙏🏽❤️
Nothing❤
So true, the world is desperate for this kind.
All I can say is that I broke free from a 10 year soul tie because of this man's teachings. Such a blessing to the generation of young ladies who are healing.
Specifically the line "don't be a silly woman!". I stopped being silly. 😂😂
Thank you, all the way from South Africa!
Amen!!! ❤ congratulations ❤
Congrats! I'm breaking free from a two year relationship, we have a kid together. Not easy but neither was being with him! I went back and remembered quickly why I left. When I was alone God showed me I was fully capable of living without a man I was once so addicted to.

This was so affirming as a woman who *is* doing the inner work. ❤❤❤
I ❤ Bishop RC & Lisa Blakes teaching.
I met them in person in Dallas. They were very humble & genuine. 🙏🏼
Did you go to the queenology conference?
No. A woman 🧍🏽♀️ has to wait to be pursued. Thank you Bishop RC 🥰🙏🏾
💯 Ladies don’t pursue…they promenade.
YES! As a mother of two sons… I’m extremely proud of the growth we’re all witnessing in the both of you gentlemen! LOVE TO SEE IT!☺️
Same. Mother of 2 sons as well. This channel gives me hope for a future with more respectful, honorable young men again.
Agree
We shall only hope mothers are raising their daughters properly so that your sons can have a wife!
Yes

I respect the content the hosts put out as well as their own growth and maturity. It is so evident. Wonderful job guys👏🏾

"The birth of we isn't the death of me..." 😮 I needed that message.... Thank yall HI and RC Brakes
This is a man who gives sound Relationship advice that I respect ♥
Finally! That’s my guy, he’s the only pastor that I take advice from. Thank you for having him on your show. 🔥🔥🔥
I LOVE this man, he is an amazing father figure and gave me father daughter talks that I never had with my real father . Thank you for bringing him on!!
R.C. Blake’s has been such a blessing to me. I didn’t grow up with my mom or dad. He has helped fill the voids with his messaging. 🙏🏾
I lost my dad a month ago. I loved him so much because I knew he loved me. He was my compass. He did not raise me, but he made up for it in my adult life. I miss him so much because I knew he loved me. If no other man loved me, I knew he did. I miss him so much.
RC Blakes is one of the few who can be long-winded and it actually feel good to listen to. Very good word and advice today!! Taking notes!!! Thanks Hardly Initiated!!! 👏🏽
Definitely! Some long winded people, are not saying anything meaningful.
I enjoy listening to Pastor RC Blakes. He is so calm and confident in his speech.
More men should be listening to this, but I’m happy to see Bishop Blakes on here🙏🏾wise counsel
Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her.
its difficult to let go of someone you love, i was in a similar situation, my relationship of 12 years ended, but i couldn't just let her go i did all i could to get her back, i had to seek the help of a spiritual counsellor who helped me bring her back..
Amazing, how did you get a spiritual counsellor, and how do i reach her?
Her name is *Shelly renee white* , and she is a great spiritual counsellor who can bring back your ex..
Thank you for this valuable information, i just looked her up now online. impressive.
It’s a soul tie. Because you weren’t married just sharing demons and your demons miss her demons. They want that other house to embody sometimes and it’s gone.
My be with anyone in sin? Waste a woman’s time and not marry her?
A man that can’t properly care for a woman and her whole body doesn’t deserve one.
For Tony Gaskin and Bishop RC Blakes hit on the Head 99.9 % of the time.
I never met my Father and once I started listening to Pastor Blakes I was able to heal from trauma, I actually wanted to heal, instead of just surviving, so, bless you man of God! You opened my eyes to the games men play! Real talk , and changing the way I think, my heart was opened to accept my flaws and grow from them because I really honed into the Lord, my life forever changed once I really relied on God, and forgave myself.
And first lady Blakes thank you too Queen.
Pastor Blakes and his wife Lisa are such a blessing. The wisdom they share is priceless. Thank you guys for having Pastor Blakes on your show👏🏾👏🏾
I love pastor Blake’s, can’t wait for this one
Me too! Great job Hardly Initiated!!!
I've been listening to Mr. Blakes for 2 years. He's helped me in so many ways. When he said, "I brought the vision, grind, and the safe space," that's what makes his marriage healthy and successful.
Thank you God for giving your daughters a father like R C Blakes.
RC Blakes has the most beautiful smile. 🙏
Apt!
So grateful y’all finally brought him on!!
We love you Bishop!! Thank you for your paternal love & wisdom. You & Lady Blake’s are such a blessing to us all. Keep going! 🙏🏾✨❤️
I agree!!! The voice the entire world needs to hear! Nothing toxic....yet truthful....but MOST importantly through love....
I absolutely agree!! His lessons have revamped my ability to heal and blossom into the woman God is molding me to be! I’m forever grateful❤
Grateful that Pastor RC's page lead me to this interview. It's beautiful to see as a guest but host and lead the discussion with these Gentlemen. It sure was a pleasure to receive. Great Build Kings. Peace and Blessings 👑🙏🏽✨️
RC Blake’s, the fatherly advice I’ve never had.
He the real queen maker! 👸🏾❤️💯🙏🏾
🔥🔥🔥
Her demeanour. Her Aura. What she Exudes !🥰
Self respect. Loved herself more than the thought of him. I love how the story ended & continues to grow ❤
I’m so grateful you brought Bishop on the show, our society needs more of these positive influences that represents God, marriage, family, and authenticity.
RC Blakes is one of the best out there hands down. Not only does he make valid points but uses scripture to support what he is saying! For me personally that’s a plus. He is biased and doesn’t male or female bash!❤
Yall delivered!!! Thank you for bringing on one of the most prominent and healthy leaders in the relationship conversation. RC Blakes’ message truly blessed me
I really encourage women to read this man’s books … they truly help you understand your worth and value! ❤ ❤
Thank all you guys! Us beautiful single women needed to hear that all is not lost in our value and love life. A Queen was reborn! ❤❤
May God continue to shine his face upon My Bishop, Bishop RC Blakes. 🙏🏼💙🙏🏼💙🙏🏼💙🙏🏼
Amen Sister Lois 🙌🏾❤️🙌🏾

Thanks for having my Bishop. Bishop RC is a gift from the Almighty God 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Bishop Blakes is the true definition of a good father, husband, and man of God. I respect him so much. God led me to his ministry as I went through my healing process. His teachings have been instrumental in helping me find my queenology. He is truly a blessing to this generation.
Thank you Hardly Initiated for featuring RC Blakes! He is absolutely awesome and has changed my life. He helped me find myself in the word of GOD and I’m a better woman for it.
This.man really helped me on many phases of my healing and in this world is the ONLY pastor I really lean into. So happy he's on the show! He's a real one and a fully accountable man.
This video from Pastor RC Blakes really resonated with me. Starting at the 46 minute mark. It made me think about a guy I was truly interested in a few years ago. His words made me understand why he's always behaved the way he does towards me. My eyes are open. Because I've always been the pursuer . Even though I knew he liked me, but I pursued him which ultimately probably turned him off. I never plan on reaching out to him again. And not out of bitterness but just because I know better now. And I'm going to be doing just what RC said. Working on myself and just being prepared.
RC is a blessing to so many women!
Rat poison so true I love pastor Blakes because he is gentle with us he talks to heal women and women
FINALLY!!!!! RC Blakes is DA’TTTRUTH!!!!
Tysean and Ryan, you guys are doing a PHENOMENAL job!! What a way to put the final nail to 2023!!! 🎉🎉🎉
IM PROUD OF YOU, KINGS!! ALL PRAISES TO THE MOST HIGH!📖👑🙏🏾
I’m so happy to see RC Blake’s on this platform!
YES Sir 🙌🏾 what a great way to end the year! Com on RC with the word:
Where there is no vision, the people perish 👏🏾 My relationship with the word Is growing daily! Thank you Pastor 🙏🏾
Also love RC’s transparency! GROWN MAN things.
RC BLAKES the father I literally never had! You are always on time! I give so much thanks to you for getting me through some of the roughest times in my life. I also thank you Hardly Initiated for listening to your audience. This is certainly bringing your platform to such an impactful level.
This podcast just went to another level. Yall been listening as we all been asking. The bishop RC literally the number one requested guest. I cant wait to hear this.
Thank you for bringing Pastor RC Blakes. This man helped me get through the toughest time in my life, he taught me things that my dad didn't. He is the template of what a king stands for . I have so much gratitude for him.
He right about the sisterhood we need
So many gems for men and women in this one podcast! Thank you for bringing Bishop RC on. This is invaluable information!!!
Yaaaaassssss!!!! I’m so excited and jumping for joy!!!!!!! 🎉❤😊
I've damn near cried watching this. Man. I needed this. Wow. He knows my life. This is touching.
This is eye opening. It was hard to hear in the beginning as a mother to 3 daughters it worries me what my children will miss out on because of the absence of their father it brought me to tears. This message was truly felt from beginning to end. Blessings to RC, Ryan & Tysean 🫶🏾
I am in your situation. I have a set of twins, girls. They are now in their teenage years and I pray that God helps us to raise them in way that will make them to make the right decisions. 🙏❤️
God can send a great man into your lives. Keep the faith ❤
@@Naluca1988& He Will! Blessings to you ♥️
@@nikkyshamz2696I’m believing at the right time he will! Blessings to you ♥️
RC Blake's is definitely THE TRUTH!!
Thank you RC Blakes 🥰. And Hardly Initiated. Am grateful for everything. 🙏🏾God bless you . Happy New Year 🥳 🎉 Cheers 🍾🥂
Happy new year!!
HONORED 🙏🏽😊♥️
This was absolutely enlightening and thought provoking! Even as a married woman!
But I'll say this, the "sticky and tricky" part of the woman "using her resources to support HIS vision" is, how does she trust that he may not leave her ONCE he starts to see the fruit of his labor that SHE HELPED to or totally financed. That being supportive piece is very scary.
Whenever he speaks, on whatever platform, I listen!🙌🏾
This was the best show for me ever. I had to learn everything he said on my own. As a "Queen" at the age of 47 who married my husband 12 years ago, and whose father was absent and abusive, had to learn this on my own. I am trying to find avenues to teach other young women this. Simply put a relationship with Christ will help you with the relationship with yourself and others, when an earthly father is absent.
💯💯💯
HI is an amazing program with needful content. Bishop RC Blakes is the ultimate Earthly Father to every woman who listens to his guidance in teaching. I listen to him daily and if I miss a day of not hearing his voice in teaching, I feel like I have not talked to My Dad that day. I love you Bishop and First Lady Lisa Blakes for your ministry to Womanhood.
KEPT OUR LIFESTYLE AT A POINT THAT I COULD AFFORD IT!!! PREEEEACH 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 anything else would be DELUSIONAL & SUPER INCONSIDERATE Ladies!!! #MATURITY #WISDOM #VIRTUE
I thoroughly enjoyed the content. Father-daugher talks are an essential part of maturing into a healthy, well-versed individual. I myself never having a father to provide self-esteem or to nuture a non-sexual relationship with a man. This hits very close to home. Thriving each day to become a better person and seeking a much closer walk with the Father! I thank God for Pastor RC Blakes, sister Lisa Blakes . Big ups to you guys allowing a safe place for us fatherless daughters to obtain knowledge and perspective!!!
RC BLAKES is an absolute legend. A spiritual father to so many women and man.
So so many did not have role model to teach self worth so these teachings are priceless. Lisa story @ 16:00 ❤ bless her courage
So happy to see Pastor RC Blakes on the podcast today. Love his teaching & all of his videos.❤🙏
Pastor Blakes and Lady Lisa are the real deal. You’ve had some awesome Pastors and First Ladies from Houston. I love it!
Pastor Blakes is one of my favorite people in the world.❤❤❤
Okay, y’all done did it now! RCBlakes is the best! I’m so excited! Grinning ear to ear! So proud of you guys for bringing him on!😊🎉❤
Thanks Hardly Initiated,this was right on time.
31:00 Yes, Bishop Blakes! We want a safe place from men. And I, personally, will try my best to be his safe place. Reading the Word, reading books that align with the Word and doing inner work has helped me realize what I should change to support, respect and love men in a way they’ll receive it. I’m practicing with my father, brothers, male co-workers, brothers at church, etc.
Love this man!! He helped me transform from a girl to a woman a few years ago… all through UA-cam. 🙏🏽
I've seen a few of their videos, but this might be the first where the hosts listened and had VERY little to say... not that their dialogues and discussions in other vids were ill-timed or not well received, but they literally hung off his every word. He was fatherly and wise, and he responded with intent.
Prior to the discussion, they respected him based on who he is. During the discussion, their respect for him increased tenfold based on how he commanded their attention.
And he did it effortlessly.
Thank you for the awesome gospel and excellent way Pastor ❤️🙏 RC BLAKES TEACHES on how we are to function & respect, care , honir each other & treat our selves we great value, love, respect & 💋💟🎉 not settled for being toxic, dysfunctional, bitter & broken 💔 & rember that getting healed, self loved, mature & walk in righteous 💪 with GOD as the King & savior uding his bible word, HOLY SPIRIT🎉 & be giuded in good decisions and good results in life 🧬🙏 & relationship goals 🎉🎉🎉😂😅
My grandmother listened to Bishop Blakes’ father. Now, I am being emphatically blessed by Bishop Blakes, Jr.🙏🏾🙌🏾
This was a wonderful conversation amongst real men! I appreciate you young gentlemen and Pastor Blake’s this really helped me understand who I am in Jesus in order to become a better wife and Queen! God bless you all for the message 🙏🏾
This video popped up on my UA-cam Bishop Blakes is a God send since finding him on UA-cam many years ago he is a father figure to me and teacher as a born again believer ,I never had a relationship with my physical father he was a malignant narcissist there was no relationship no connection nothing he just cared about himself only and my mother was toxic I grew up in dysfunction after my father died I winded up marrying a narcissist after 3 years I left and filed for divorce I thank God for giving me strength to get out of that abuse 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for this. Pastor Blakes is a global treasure. His seminars need to come to South Africa in all honesty. Blessings on blessings to the entire team.
I love Pastor Blake’s wisdom. So glad that you had him on your show.
13:42 My father was pastored by RC Blakes Sr (RC’s father, a very kind and sweet man!), who married my parents, but he died before he could impart a lot of these things into me.
But GOD and my MOTHER. And my village! And ME. 🙏🏾
Many men and women have fathers who lead them astray or pass down trauma and misogyny and brokenness. Having a father is not enough or some sort of sure path to healthiness and wholeness. I know many women whose self esteem is low because of their fathers. Every woman has to do her own work to reach the place of inner self-love and wholeness RC has described. No one can give that to you.
The father we all needed. Thanks RC Blakes for laying it all out for us ❤
🙏🏾🦋 glad to see Pastor Blakes sharing a convo here. First time visitor of this channel. Good message. There's so much negative, toxic, & incorrect things spread through social media that's infecting society, especially younger generations, as Pastor Blakes mentions. This is why it's important for the Blakes ministry and positive platforms, God ordained platforms, to talk about these topics responsibly, maturity. The importance of a father role, yes- God uses Pastor Blakes as a Godly husband and father, to facilitate messages from our Heavenly Father. Those who can't see the problem in our society are simply part of the problem. 35k views and only 3k likes, wow!? Keep following and doing God's will.
I love RC Blakes. Thank you Lord for using him. He helped me get clarity after being betrayed by “friends” and the narcissist I was in a relationship for 4 years. That soul-tie left me completely broken but someone sent me RC video and I literally studied those videos. They helped me on my healing journey to find Christ who is at the center of my life!!! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
My complements to both of you for having this amazing man as a guest! ❤❤
RC BLAKES my spiritual father! I have listened to ALL of his messages. He is truly heaven sent so was this message. I’m grateful for his life. He is truly saving the lives of lost woman. I respect him even more how he handled his wife and her trauma Amazing!!! ❤❤❤
