- My life has been in shambles over the past four years.
I’m standing at the base of a humongous mountain that I know I have to climb. How do I even take the first step and who will I be when I get to the other side?
I HATE THE UNKNOWN….
Eternity is a very long time and I’m trying to wrap my head around God’s promise of eternal life.
Can it really be true? Life eternal? Cmon…… Really?

🆘 If anyone has a prayer request, Christi Wilkes (a trusted prayer warrior)would love to pray for you. Please comment with as much or as little as you would like to share. Christi does try to respond personally to every request. Also, If you’d like to know more about Jesus and the new life you can have in HIM, she’d love to share with you.
“And this is the confidence that we have toward HIM, that if we ask anything according to HIS will HE hears us. And if we know that HE hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of HIM.”
1 John 5:14-15 ESV
Christi 💕 God bless you our trusted prayer warrior! Requesting prayer for dealing with depression, more so now, recently retired and in a funk, questioning if I've done the right thing, but too late! Needing structure and routine to grow in my relationship with the Lord and seeking purpose, and get on a healthy track- waste of my God-given life to flounder and doubtI can so relate Chyna 💕💕🙏🏼 🙏🏼⚘️
Christi, asking for Christine that God would transform her to a better than before new creation in Christ, she loved Jesus like no one I have seen, she is His, for Him to heal her of many wounds probable, abuse during childhood possible and blocked, trauma may have caused borderline personality disorder or else/other. For her to be reconciled to her daughters and her siblings, for godly mature female friendships that He would provide for her. It’s sad that her daughters have grieved and they say it’s as if they lost their mother. Thank you
Chynna, may I suggest a channel that will change your life in knowing Jesus? The minister went through much of what you did in his own childhood and the way he has come out of it is extraordinary. Eli Laskey is his name. He’s here on UA-cam. Please spend some time watching a few of his videos. Your life will be transformed. Blessings to you in Jesus. Praise Him!
Christi, please pray for Monica to be healed of her anxiety and panic attacks.
Christi thank you for all of your prayers. A few months ago my daughter was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. I put in a prayer request and she is doing so much better. I truly believe prayers do help. We can still use a healing prayer. Thank you Chynna for the faith you have given us. You also told me your son had cancer. I will be praying for him also.❤
I can't say too much about this student, CHynna, but a student at school today was singing your "Holy Spirit" activate song....I immediately stopped and joine in and then had to ask if they watched your "show" and they said yes....several weeks ago this was a student I was totally horrified over for several reasons and have been praying for...they had commented that they wanted NOTHING to do with God, church, etc...and had MANY serious problems.....in their journal today they wrote..."I Am a Child of God" and I told them I was too...Miracles Are Happening...Thank you God and thank you Chynna for your ministry...don't quit!!!!! (I pray for you everyday, your ministry, health and marriage).
This is so amazing Susan! Thank you thank you thank you for telling me this… So encouraging. Peace of Christ!
That is wonderful news, Susan!! :o)
Girl…you need to reach for 7.5 million cause you are needed in this world. Don’t stop girl…..don’t stop. You are helping so many people including me
SO Agree!!!!!
Agree 💯
Amen
Chynna I love that you bring humor and faith together! You crack me up but yet stir my soul!
Cheri B somtimes it scares me.
One first memory: picnic at the river with parents and grandparents. They were all dressed up back in the day (1958). They all looked sharp and happy. Dad said “Don’t go near the water!”. I charged out there, fell in and saw minnows then just as I began to panic felt dad’s loving arms around me picking me up and taking me to safety. Makes me happy. Sounds like an analogy.
One of my early memories was standing in my back yard under a big oak tree and looking up through the leaves. At that moment I felt God’s presence. I knew He was with me and He was holding the world in His hands. It was overwhelming. It wasn’t one of my earliest memories but it was a memorable one.
Having climbed some of the tallest mountains around our world. There was many a time I would have to make a decision to come back at another time and make the attempt again. I realized that that mountain would still be there, it was my job to live in order to climb it another time. Now I need to climb the biggest mountain of my life, and you dear soul have more than once blessed my life with your hand reaching down. It may be a metaphor: But please reach out and take my hand, we all need to help one another. 🙏✨

David, this just made my whole month! Thank you. My hand is always here 🙌🙌🙌
You make me feel sooooooo much better....just knowing we aren't alone in feeling the same way! Praying for us all that our struggles melt away!!! We totally got this!!!!!!! 🙏✌💜😘
When Billy looks at you or talks about you to the camera....he always smiles and his eyes twinkle with love and admiration for you...his sincerity is evident and I love it that you two connect more than you realize....#1 celebrity couple.....
Denise--I see the same thing. Billy adores his wife. What a blessing! I would love to have a gorgeous husband madly in love with me after decades together. ...And Chynna you deserve it! ❤❤
Menopause has has kicked my butt with “dread in my head in bed”, anxiety etc. and it has caused me to doubt. I too am a doubting Thomas these days but it’s part of the journey ! Just give me Jesus ! Peace of Christ sister ! ❤️
Same here, and I'm 10 years postmenopausal. I wake up in a panic. I found Therapy in a Nutshell on UA-cam. She talks about the whys of a morning cortisol surge. Maybe check her out to see if her insights help...,? And she's a Believer, so that's a plus 😊
If you can tolerate soy, Estrogen replacement over the counter made my journey a breeze!
@@robertajtnma5934 What form does it come in? I’ve never had soy but I’m willing to try anything ! Thank you 😊
@@robertajtnma5934 I heard soy blocks receptor sites and disrupts hormones....what helped me during perimenopause, and the year that followed my last period, was Bio-Identical progesterone. And a book by John Lee, MD "What Your Doctors Won't Tell You About Menopause" EYE OPENING. I called it my 2nd "bible".
@@yvonnemiles7433 read Shelly's comment. Sounds good too . What I took was in pill form over the counter. Worked for me but I am not a Dr. Life is so good once it is all done !
Hi Chynna! I'm new to your channel and I love it! I live in Wales, UK and I've had a number of very tough years! I remember saying to my mum back then exactly what you are saying.. " I feel I have a mountain ahead of me and I don't know how I'm going to make it? '' .. The thought of continually climbing just wore me out even thinking about it! My experience has been this : That God levelled that mountain for me.. I just needed to see that He had levelled it... that was where the struggle was.. the seeing not the climbing.. and we can only see when we rest.. and we can only rest when we really know we can't do it! Isaiah 40:4 " Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill made low. The rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain " Bless You so much Chynna! I am 54 also this year.. Lots of Love X
Thanks again for being real! Cuz I feel I’m not alone, been sitting on my couch for 3 solid hrs, and haven’t moved. Haven’t been able to get myself moving! You always seem to inspire and so I’m now getting up and gonna talk to my Jesus! Praying for you and for all Bible babes everywhere!! Thanks for walking us home. It means more than you know!!❤️🙏
Big hug Rhonda! You are beautiful, there’s only one of you! God bless and peace of Christ.
Hi Rhonda I’m exactly same way big hugs 🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@eileendoherty2836 thank you Eileen, the same to you ❤️🥰
@@ChynnaPhillipsBaldwin thanks Chynna, same to you!❤️
I get excited about cuddling up on my bed for hours on end …I won’t say how many but a lot !!! and watching UA-cam videos 😣that’s what I get excited about anymore 🧐and then I force myself to do 30 minutes on the treadmill if I’m lucky🙁 so I don’t know if it’s an age thing or what since I hit 55 I just feel like I don’t wanna do anything I just spent three hours cleaning this god-awful I mean I shouldn’t say that ….thank you Lord for this home !!!! but this two story house ugh vacuuming, dusting , doing the bathrooms, and I ache so bad ….like oh this is for the birds !! I’m downsizing next year lol 😂
My mountain currently is learning to live without my husband. He took flight in December 2021. The peace and comfort from the Holy Spirit sustains me hour by hour. He is my anchor in the storm.
You are so very much appreciated for your honesty, vulnerability, witty sense of humor and spiritual guidance! I have the same struggles too with anxiety and depression, but can't be too hard on ourselves and try to carry on.....
I too was abused by family members, and ... doctors, to say the least. I have lived a dangerous life for 60 yrs. I don’t know if I’m coming or going. I’m on disability, and stay in the house unless it’s to walk my dog. I don’t stop and talk to the people on my circle, because I don’t care about their dramas. I’m going through hell right now dealing with my mom & brothers death in January. They left me nothing.! It’s all going to the church! But I am the one that has to pay bills, mortgages, lawyers to counter the wills... Growing up I knew my mom hated me, and this was a confirmation of such!
Your channel and your convos are what get me through the day❣️ You’re helping so many people!
I’m one of them❣️ #PeaceInChrist
Thank you for always coming on here and being your authentic self! It shows that no ones life is perfect and we all have struggles, even the ones that look like they have a perfect life on the outside, have struggles to contend with every day. I always tell my daughter to stay close to the people that make you feel like sunshine, even in the darkest days the sun will still shine behind the clouds. Speaking of shining... can you PLEASE pray for me! I am going on vacation next week with my family to Maui and there is rain in the forecast the day I arrive! NO.... please, please, please pray for sunshine! Love you, Chynna!
It never rains in Kihei, so try to spend time on the southwestern side.
@@jfranklin9549 hi! yes, I lived in Hawaii for 14 years… my favorite side of the island is around Kaanapali. Praying it doesn’t rain…
One of my first memories was when I was a baby. My mother had taken us over to her friend’s house , from our church, for them to have coffee and talk. I was in a bassinet still. I can remember the curtains, like a linen color, with them swaying with the breezes coming in through the window. It was filtered sunshine coming through. I was facing the windows. In the foyer.And to my back, around the corner my mother and her friend were in the kitchen talking. As I described it to my mother ( who is now with Jesus ) she couldn’t believe that I remembered it. I have other memories from being a baby too.
And, I must tell you, I have the same discussions/ arguments with myself about washing my hair. Or any other thing. It may be my depression , or like you anxiety, allergies , or part of my autoimmune issues. Some days it’s just hard to get moving.
Thank you for being so vulnerable with all of us. I hope you have a good therapist and I hope she’s a Christian. I had a Buddhist one for years and all these years later wish I had found a Christian one!
I’m glad you’re you and you have this channel.
You are loved Chynna. ❤️🕊✝️
Wow!!! I'm 67, & I only knew one other person in my whole life, who remembers being a baby. I couldn't talk yet, to define things, experiences....
But I remember, what I was thinking, during experiences, small or great. 💗💗💗
@@elizabethbowie9753 oh wow! You’re the first I’ve heard of too!! 😀I can remember my thoughts and feelings too about what was going on around me. I remember my mom snacking my hand away from what I was grabbing and how I felt bad about it. I’ve met people who don’t remember anything before around age 12. 🤯 That boggles my mind! You’re an Elizabeth, too. 😁 Bless you, Elizabeth! Thanks for dropping a note! 💕✝️
I love listing to you . you are so real, I love that about you. We all need Jesus. I'm 59, back in 2020 I found out I had cancer, that's right when the pandemic hit. No one was allowed to come with me for my treatments. It was horrible time for me and my family. But my god was with me the whole time, I had a lot of anxiety and still do. When I was laying there getting my treatments, a Scripture I said daily. Was daughter your faith has healed you, go in peace, and be free from your suffering. I am cancer free praise Jesus.. I let my hair go grey, I also have to pluck the hairs out of my chin. And now I'm dealing with my teeth breaking from the cancer treatments. I look in the mirror at my teeth I want to cry, but I say your alive. Praise Jesus.
Hi Penny,
Sending so much love, Prayer and support your way! 🙏
I know you’re struggling with many things, and I can relate, but you’re also my age and something that kicks my butt on and off the last year has been “the change”. Something to consider. ❤️
I like what you had to say about climbing mountains, which caused me to think about a poem from Billy Burden
Mountains to Climb
Some days I get tired of fighting it all,
The more I seem to try, the more I fall.
And as I study my accomplishments in review,
I realize they’ve been rather few.
No wonder I ask myself, “Why struggle today?”
“Why not give up?” That’s the easy way.
But the universe’s architect, in His infinite plan,
Designed a challenge to make a man a man.
The stumbling blocks of life He placed in our way,
Are merely stair steps to success each day.
So when I fell like quitting next time,
Let me remember, God made Mountains To Climb.
That’s great! Thanks for sharing!!
Chynna, I've been listening to you for awhile. Though we live drastically different lives, I really understand you and relate. I pray for you and want you to know God brings you to mind often. Though we will never meet on this earth we are sisters. Love you and I know we will make it through life with joy in Jesus!! Life is hard but we have hope in Him!!!❤️
Love this💕🥰🙏 God bless 🙏😇
Jean....Right!!?? God Bless you, sis!!!
❤♥️🙏🕊🎶
My earliest memory is when I was almost 3. My brother was an infant and I climbed into his crib. My mother got very excited about it. Hey, he lived.
My best first memory is when I discovered the monumental talent of an actor named William Baldwin. It was when I first saw Flatliners, Backdraft, and later Born on the fourth of July. Thanks Bill for your incredible work and your unlimited dedication to keep at it!
🤣 lov it
Love you Chynna!!!! I am also glad we won't be sitting around on clouds in Heaven...I just asked the Lord, though,but could I still knit there?? I am getting better at it and have so many patterns to make, I don't have time to do it all here, and I love it! haha!!! As far as earliest memories, I do remember sitting in my high chair in my kitchen, and watching a mouse crawl across the floor..I told my Mom this and she couldn't confirm, but thought it very possible, as the mice got in somehow and came out from underneath the dishwasher, and where my chair was situated, I would have seen it that way..I guess I was probably 2 or so.. Thank you for being so real and relatable, it really helps us to walk each other home...😍😍😍😍
Chynna, I'm being serious, I feel the same way.And I've been having really weird dreams too.My early memories are not that nice.I remember, It was my 3,4 b-day.My step dad,sat me down and told me my mommy wasn't coming back. ( she died @20yrs)That sucked! Timing? Another time I was going down a steep hill on my bike.And I tried to stop ,then I banged my nose, into a stone wall.(factory was there) no blood.But boy i cried!!! Luv you! 💜🙏✝️
You are brutally real, honest and transparent. That’s a rare thing in the social media world. Strong and courageous you are.
I was born on radical left family. Some years ago I moved away from that ideology. Family didn’t reacted well. Expected. But nothing like when I came out as a christian, let alone catholic going to latin mass… that was not expected at all. I still can’t understand it to this day. It’s like they could deal with me going conservative but believing in God was like I lost my intelligence and went backwards, medieval or something like that.
So what you are doing is very important and I think has much more value than you believe. You are too harsh with yourself sometimes 😊
So be kind to yourself.
My mountain now is facing the fact that my beloved mother has lung cancer. She was diagnosed in January. Not the way I thought 2022 would go at all. It was such a shock! Your life can change in an instant, so tell the people most dear to you that you love them. Chynna, I miss seeing you with Becket. Will we be seeing the two of you together anytime soon? Peace of Christ. xoxo

🙏🙏🙏
My first memory is a nightmare I had. I don't know how old I was, I just know I was sleeping in a crib. My mom had opened the window earlier in the day and when she put me to bed she closed it. As she closed it she said, "We don't want a draft getting in here."
In my little mind, I didn't hear "draft" - I heard "giraffe!"
That night I dreamt a giraffe stuck its head thru my window and was glaring at me over my crib. I was horrified! I'm 57 now and have never forgotten it. Lol.
Hang in there, Chynna! You're on the verge of a breakthru, my sister in Christ! 🌹
One of my first memories...I lived on a farm in Wisconsin, our house was on one side of the busy country road and our farm buildings were on the other. So I guess I wanted to go be with my dad who was busy working on the other side of the road and I proceeded to cross the road. Well, I saw a white car coming at me and I froze in the middle of the road, then I don't remember much after that. Didn't get hit, but I'll never forget it and it comes to mind every time I want to make a left turn, because I thought I looked, but didn't see anything until it was too late...so now I always think I'm going to miss seeing a car.
Hello Chynna, I grew up LOVING your Mom’s Group Mamas and Papas… 💞 🙏✝️🌴 I also grew up from age "2 days old" to now in the Christian Churches. So I'm extremely happy to see you loving our celestial King "Jesus" like you do. 😃🎼🥁 You are guiding many people into BELIEVING the truth about regaining their Immortal Life through Salvation in Jesus Christ. I like watching you talk about your life, our King, High Priest and Savior. Wish I could be there to meet you in person.💗🐶 You’re awesome and please keep helping people understand what God’s Holy Spirit has shown you. 🐣💝🦅
You crack me up!! Made me laugh out loud!!😆 I love that you are just you!! No filters, no nonsense!! Just you!! Striving in my own life to just be who God made me and not live up to anyone else’s standards!! Love you Chynna!! I look forward to spending time with you!! But Jesus first!!!😄
Love how you are always real. When you’re having a bad day you’ll let people know you’re having a bad day. When you’re having a great day you can really tell that. You might be famous but you’re just like everybody else and that’s why I think everybody loves you here
One of my very first memories is walking to school in Fullerton..walking up a hill to kindergarten (with my brother and neighbors)…the smell of eucalyptus…pungent, lovely eucalyptus….mmmmm…what a beautiful memory.🌿
China, I so enjoy your videos! Being in mid life is not for the weak. My kids are now 20 and 25, and I struggle daily also with figuring out my new role as a mother and what's ahead for me. What has helped me is... Everytime you have a Negative thought replace it with a Good thought! Wake up and remind yourself of 5 things daily that God has blessed you with! Make things more simple...day by day. Focus on doing things for others. The more you do for others unto God the less you focus on problems. I have been helping an elderly man with meals and it truly has been healing for us both. It's in those simple giving moments I feel Gods peace and joy in a more profound way. I work on every morning taking the time to look nice and it helps me be more productive and feel better. Doing fasting a couple times a week also helps me feel more spiritually open to God's will. You are so beautiful inside and out! Your gift of spreading happiness and God's love with your infectious smile and personality is helping so many people. Do not underestimate your calling! God is using you in a mighty way!! Please remind yourself of that daily! You are living your purpose! You've got this!!❤😊
I have several early childhood memories. I remember crawling on the floor in our living room and seeing a kid, who had to be my older brother, walk across the room and thinking "Man. When I can do that, I'll really be going places!" I also remember my mother looking down at me in the crib. Finally, I was changing my nephew many years ago, and as I was about to take off his diaper, he thrust his legs in the air as if he knew the routine and was doing HIS part of the process. That hit me like a TON of bricks as the memory flooded back into my mind of ME doing the EXACT SMAE THING for my Mom!!!
I used to have terrible anxiety about eternal life when I was young. I just wanted to go to sleep and cease to be. I realize as an older woman that life on earth is nothing compared to life in heaven in the presence of God. I’m not afraid of it anymore. Peace of Christ!
You're so not alone in the way you feel! I totally get what you mean by God loving us and knowing our hearts all the way to the bottom. I do Telehealth therapy 2x/wk. It's saved my life. I like to think of all of us up in heaven hanging together communally worshipping our loving Father. On earth we don't get to meet, but in heaven we shall gather near to Him. He who calls us near. I have those stupid depressed, anxious times (more often then not). I hope it helps you to know we are ALL in this together. My first memory is swinging in the swings at my Great Grandparen't farm by a big old oak. Happy, blissful, all smiles. Hang in there dear girl.
I feel off track myself- so recently I removed Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok from my phone. I left UA-cam and Spotify for the podcast. I can walk and listen, work and listen but the scrolling has me sitting!!! So that’s progress towards me getting back to my pre- Covid self. ❤️❤️Keep PREACHING MY FRIEND
One of my first memories is standing in my crib calling to my mother to come get me out. She told me I could get out (my older brother had no problem with escaping). I, however, told her, "I fall!", which perfectly illustrates my attitude towards life, even from infancy.
Your mother ignored your older brother so he had to figure a way out then you came along and she was double ignoring you trying to deal with your brother the following part was because you probably left in there longer because now there were two of you edit:My text talk does not understand my New York accent very well hope you understand
Ohhhhh.....Wowwww....God Bless you and just know that Jesus is in the BIZ of healing us day by day....Much Love...huggzzzz
Chynna, I am going through the very same emotional turmoil as you. I was into working out and I have really slowed down.
Oh Chynna I wish I could be there to encourage us to meet small milestones.
Chynna, Thank you for another wonderful Cal Preach! You have such a beautiful way of putting into words many of the things we are thinking about, but maybe don’t know how to express. I am always saddened by some of the ideas people have about eternal life, as you were talking about: endlessly playing a harp, endlessly floating on a cloud, and so forth. Also, all the emphasis on the gates of heaven and St. Peter being the gatekeeper. Imagining that people become angels when they go to heaven, etc. Mark Twain famously talked about how men HATE to sing in church and since that will be what we do in heaven, he wanted no part of it. All of these things are based on earthly experience and trivialize the glorious reality of what our destiny is: to be in an eternal relationship of boundless love and Joy and happiness with our Beautiful God. We get a small foretaste of that if we are blessed enough to have a partner on earth that we are madly in love with. The way that beautiful person makes us feel, the way we want to be with them continuously, the way we adore them and would do anything for them. That is but a small taste of the love of Christ for us and, in our glorified, sinless state in heaven, our perfect love for Him.
What will we do besides love Him in eternity? I don’t know, but, kind of like we are happy to do (almost) anything with our Sweetheart on earth, I think we will be so in love with Him, we will be joyful in anything we are doing with Him.
Great word, and if I might add those crazy love desires are in us because he put them there. So if we’re in a relationship or not in a crazy love relationship with someone, we can always direct that love to him and receive it back through our communion with him now and in eternity!
To know you is to love you. Period.
I get my chin waxed when I get my hair cut. My hair dresser, who’s younger than me, has agreed to continue my chain hair maintenance when I’m in the nursing home. If that’s not retirement planning, I don’t know what is. 😂
I read an article about a study recently that when we recall a memory. we might not recall the original event but rather what we remembered the previous time. So it can get distorted. As I get older, I don’t trust my memory as much. 😀
I love you soon much. I found Cal Preach before you officially named this blessed meeting for all who are seeking that Jesus Vibe. Love it more each episode. You are already on that mountain. Jesus has shown you AND us that... There is plenty room for HIM in Hollywood! You are planted in the area full of thorns and Through these thorns,they are CAPABLE THROUGH HIM ,TO BECOME ROSES! Keep it up because it's a hard climb! Bless you so much for following His will. Congrats on the 75k. God already KNEW that YOU would chose HIM above TV shows. Many of your 75k turned off TV years ago,due to the nature of the beast controlling the tell a vision ! Just keep looking for those 🌹 roses and they will turn toward the SON 🌞 ,with your patience and love.
Yes, in my 50s one positive thing is drier hair and not needing to wash my hair everyday. The aging process is fascinating.😊.... Dear Chynna, You have a good heart that wants to please Jesus. HE is SO proud of your heart! None of us are perfect!...Hearing my brother was born and going "yeah" while jumping up and down with my sister at 3 1/2 years old is my first memory....Praying for Will Smith and family to face plant before Jesus. " For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." ....We can continue to ask Jesus to go before us to take our hand and carry us up and over mountains in our lives....Hugs and MANY BLESSINGS PRECIOUS Sis in Christ! 🙏
When you are on a mtn like Everest, you have to get used to the altitude and so you start at base camp and go to base camp 1 and come back to base camp and then to base camp 2 and then back to base camp - then to base camp 3 and then back to base camp 2… and then you summit… so even to climb a real mtn and or our personal mtns there is a moving forward and backward as we get used to the altitude… and so true in our Christian mtn climb…
Thank you for singing to us- I tell my best friend all the time that you are my internet best friend… I love the bathroom true confessions! And I love the good morning song… my real best friend is a little jealous of you…
I shave my whole face! I love it. Hair doesn’t grow back thicker, that’s false. It grows blunt, which makes it look thicker. It also doesn’t change colors. You’re not altering your DNA when u shave your face, just think it through. I love it.
Same here! It’s also a great exfoliation!
God morning to you! I resonate so much with what you are going through, I went through something similar in my personal life and my marriage. It seemed that no matter how much I prayed and read my bible I just could not find peace, i was deeply depressed and my marriage was in crisis, it was so painful. One day I happened to be listening to a pod cast called Everyday Miracles, the host, Julie Hedinborg had a guest named Percy Burnes, a pastor. He was being interviewed about a book he had written called “Glorious Freedom”. It’s a long story, but, Praise Jesus, that podcast and book changed my life. Any way, praying for you and your “Subs” 🤍 take what you like and leave the rest! PoC (Peace of Christ)
I’ve been watching your channel for just a little while, but you have really encouraged me in so many ways. In fact, I had a dream the other night where I said to someone, “Jesus is my Rock and that’s how I roll”. When I woke up the next morning I remember using your phrase and thinking how much you have affected me.
Buffy!!!!! Love this 💕💕💕🌸🌸
So good! Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could actually hear the cheering voices from that Cloud of Witnesses? That's why I love your "we're all just walking each other Home." Thank you for speaking into my life today Chynna! 💖
Chynna, preach it girl! Love to hear your true authentic self, and the freedom with Christ. Yes, the journey is not easy. Thankful for Grace, and God's unconditional love.
Your CalPreach this morning was a wonderful tonic amidst the sea of bad news out there. These Russian atrocities we hear of and see on a daily, almost hourly basis, are almost too much to bear. 😭 And this world still thinks it doesn't need Jesus? And it keeps going from bad to worse. Eternal life with the One who is love (His very essence is love--love is not just one of His attributes, He IS love) and we will live in that live forever, starting now--I am all for it! Thank you Chynna for a great start to my morning. Needed it. Love you!💖👍🛐✝️
The Jesus in you is so beautiful! I love listening to you. You are so real and personal. The world needs you sister! The world NEEDS you! Keep doing beautiful things. Shine your light!! Shine your light! ☀️
Chynna, I don't know where you go to church, but you would be the perfect person to sing to the Lord!!! Leading people in worship! You have that Holy boldness in you!

You sang happy God day on my birthday! Plus, my first memory is of my fourth birthday and I was getting all our chairs together for my guests! I don't remember the party at all except for an old photo. But that was 59 years ago.
Last night i had a scary dream for the first time I can remember . I woke myself up by verbally rebuking devil in jesus name . That worked.
Pray for my daughters, Joy and Hope who need Jesus .
I too, having high testosterone need to daily pluck.
Thank you for reaching for me w your hand to help me through this journey home. And I too would be honored if you take my hand sister in Christ. I love you girl . I thank God we will see Jesus come back soon and meet him in the air. Peace of Christ. I consider you my baby big sister in The LORD.
Soul sisters in Christ! Life has been a struggle, and while I still struggle on a daily basis, you have brought me back to prayer. Thank you, Chynna and know I (as well as many of your babes) am keeping you in my precious, holy prayers. And all you babes and dudes, I pray for you too!! God bless and be with you all
Im trying to make that path to be on, not quite there yet but listening to you gives me a peace i haven't had for a long time. Thankyou.
Keep at it. Once you get your foot in the door it IS a revelation! Keep going!!
My earliest memory is when I was about 2. Many nights while my parents and older brother were downstairs watching TV, I'd climb up about 12 uncarpeted stairs. I'd wonder around in the dark in the bedrooms. When I got bored, I'd come back down the stairs on my butt. The dark didn't scare me and my parents weren't worried I'd fall! Different times for sure.
Earliest memory was cutting the end of my finger off in my grandfather's woodshed at three years old. I remember begging the doc not to stitch my finger but not crying. He gave me one of those toys you get in a gumball machine with little silver balls to roll into a hole. 💝😇 Kat Kerr from Revealing Heaven will totally change any preconceptions you have about Heaven! 💖
Lol..Your timing for humor 🤣 is priceless.....God gave you 🎁 gifts and he gave us you...Thanks for being genuine and generous with yourself..🧡
Chynna, I thank God for you. I have been a christian for years but still struggle and am so thankful for your refreshing, open spirit. The Lord is definitely using you to draw me closer. Please never quit sharing your personal walk with Jesus with us. ♥️🙏🏻♥️Much love in Christ!
Beautiful talk Chynna! I personalize the Lord's Prayer too - how could the Lord not love that? God bless you!😇🙌
My first memory is at 2 years old. I caught my finger in the screen door and needed stitches. I had to go to the ER and they wouldn't allow my parents to come in the room with me. Very scary... and I still have that scar to remind me of it.
Chynna have you ever heard of the devotional streams in the desert? It was written in like 1925 but oh my so full of truth and help understanding so much of what you are going through . I really think you’ll enjoy it.
Yesss I looove it 💎💎💎💎
I’ve been subscribed to your channel for a while,finally got to watch your video today.Found it thought provoking and refreshing.Would love prayer for a 30 year desire to be married.First marriage ended after 8 years and he walked.Been longing ever since …thankyou
Prayers a lord that you would send Teresa a husband, a good man ASAP Lord, in the name of Jesus we ask it and believe it!❤️🙏
That's one sassy bird, LOL!!!
First memory: My sister and I pretending to be in an Easter parade and wearing our Easter bonnets while walking in circles on the big living room rug.
Westchester, NY 1970
Thanx Chynna...I so look forward to your realness!! Routine helps me too...especially as I have struggled with depression for most of my life (I'm now 56). If I don't get dressed by a certain time, I start to feel like I'm sliding backwards...while I'm self-employed that is.
Hey Chynna, something that helps my allergies is local honey. Try to find some from a farm 50 miles or less from your home. A teaspoon a day really helps my allergies. I hope this helps!
It is a way of life and everyday I have to talk to God, I may not pray everyday but everyday I stay close to Him and think about His Glory, Mercy and Love and realize it is the Greatest Love Story of ever told!
My 1st memory was J.F.K.'s assassination, I was 4. My mom was sitting on the sofa folding clothes and the parade in Dallas was on TV (she was a huge fan of JFK). My Dad was at work and my siblings were in school. Then s=something happened on the screen and mu mom yelled and started crying, then the phone was ringing and there people at the door, everyone was crying. I remember sitting on the attic stairs alone, terrified that the world was ending and there was nothing I could do. To this day, I can't watch a parade without having a moment of dread and crying.
Oh Ms China, same struggles here, even the hair one! I just heard a sermon about how to "be happy" by renewing our minds, but it was VERY DIFFERENT to what I always hear. I think you would get appreciate it too because we have a similar personality/humor. I study the mind so much and I can drive myself crazy, but this one made sense. Should I post a link here or DM? Let's keep climbing.
One of my earliest memories was of chasing my cousins up a hill visiting the island of Puerto Rico. Praising Jesus for 75k and growing!
You are definitely helping us get to the other side! I work with students who have significant struggles and you inspire me to work in Christ! ❤️🙏
I am so glad God brought you to my mind a few weeks ago & then a very real, to the exact words I needed to hear on your Instagram. It changed everything with my walk with Jesus! For the better 🥰
My first MEMORY is being a baby laying on the floor on a blanket on my belly and the room had a quite peaceful feel. My second memory is sitting in a high chair with a bright candle in front of me and two close shadowy faces behind it in a dark room (mother and grandmother) smiling at me. Years later I found a picture of me in a highchair with a single lit candle on my one year birthday celebration. When you are older, you can but word's in an early memory.
SWEET CHYNNA!!! Charles Spurgeon ROCKS!!! Sis...I just have to keep reminding myself that this World is NOT our home....Eternity is a Long Time!!! Also....My feelings are NOT Facts!!! I Luvya and continue to hold you and yours up in Prayer to our Most High and Holy God!!! Praise Jesus.....Love, Cherie
You have such a pastor’s heart, being concerned about helping the next person over that mountain, to the other side. No, it’s absolutely not sin to personalize the Lord’s Prayer. That’s exactly what He intended for us to do with it. It’s a model, an example, of how we should be praying.
I personalize the Lord’s Prayer as well. It brings me closer to Him. It’s a hug. A snuggle into that secret place. Draw nigh to Him and He will draw nigh to you. ✝️💟
Chynna’s beard 😂 50+ LOVE that breakdown and personalization of the Lord’s Prayer- I meditate and say it slowly and interpret it in so many ways- I think it’s beautiful! I love you so, so, so much. Jesus loves and wants us, so how can that be anything but good? You’re amazing. You’re so loved and you’re hilarious and REAL. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I
Love
You
Xox
Making my bed is an absolute must! The day is just better
So Agree , and at the end of the day, unraveling the covers for me is like unwrapping a present and thanking Gods gift to me for another day. Good nite Jesus ♥️
Ughhhhhh,You made me Cry..when talking about getting up that 🏔️ Mountain...to the other side...
See I'm the youngest of 7..& my parents got their Angel Wing's a few yrs ago now....and After they past...All my siblings...Ghosted Me...ughhh...
I don't understand it yet..I've basically just had to let it Go.......
Yet geez it's Weird tho isn't it?!.. however I am Just Kind To Everyone..as I've learned from this ..that You Never Kno What peeps are Going Thru 🌈🌴🌼🦋Okdokes
Luv ya 🌴🌼🦋K
How could they forget their baby ?? 🌷 So sorry. That must hurt you to your soul. Us Bible Babes gotta stick together ! 🕊 I am saying a prayer for you. 🐣 Blessings from California. 👒
You've pointed me back to Jesus so many times and I can't thank you enough for that ❤ Let's climb (and struggle because we're human) up this mountain!
It has always helped me to think of the Trinity as like water being like ice, steam and liquid, differences but all water.
Unto you is known the mystery of the kingdom of God. Mark 4,11. Be at peace sister
Chynna, I love you. You remind me so much of my daughter. She has the same struggles that you have, but she claws herself out of the pit everyday because she holds onto Jesus, just like you do. Thanks for being you, you encourage me so much. I pray for you, you are precious. xxx
And YES personalizing your prayer, I called them crafted prayers. It’s crafted in a very personal way and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that keep doing it❤️
I agree. Personalizing prayers is absolutely fine. I've read Psalm 91 personalized for protection for ourselves and family and it's VERY powerful.
Shaving the beard 🙌🏻🙌🏻!! Mary's garden is so tranquil...thank you for taking us there! And the hair conversation...yep! Eternal life...with Jesus...whoa!...and yes!! #calpreach
And .... my earliest memory ..... I was about 5 or 6 years old and woke up in the middle of the night to our station wagon on fire in the driveway and watching out the living room window as the fireman put it out. We had a babysitter that night and my parents went out to a party .... my dad had flicked a cigarette out the window (yuck!) and it flew back in and onto the backseat and the car caught on fire.
I don’t have many early life memories…not sure why! When I’m in a dry place I try to play lots of worship music to get me in a better place. I also tell myself that God is lifting me out of this pit then thank Him! Happy Easter to you & your boos💜✝️💜
Everyone is fighting a battle we know nothing about. But Christ knows. I love the way you love Him, Chynna. His love is LIFE!
Earliest memories. Living in Navy housing located in the middle of the Oakland Bay Bridge on Treasure Island.
I popped water out of the fence “blisters” that came from all that beautiful San Francisco Bay mist.
Seems like we all have emotional struggles and as we get older it gets physically more difficult which makes it hard not to get depressed or be consistent in a daily routine if you aren't feeling well. It is tough sometimes and we can push ourselves but we have to give ourselves some grace. Losing the ability to do things is hard to accept so while we are still able to climb that mountain it might make it easier to do if we realize there may come a day. we won't be able to. That is where I am at and only 59, what I would give to feel well enough to have a daily routine. Jesus is my source.
Sister, you are doing WAY better than you think. God loves our humanity and all its imperfections and struggles. You aren’t supposed to have all the answers nor are you supposed to wrap your head around “eternal” cause you would be God…you are supposed to do what you are doing…draw near, get closer to Him so He can get closer to you (like the old 70s song) 😉
Thank you for another great Cal Preach!
PS- my first memory is walking down my hallway thinking it’s time to call my grandma “Memaw” who adopted me “mom”. I was 4.
My first memories are tomatoes (my parents had planted them in the backyard of our first house) & my mom. My mom is an amazing mother. I am super blessed.
On the other side you are free of the pains of your earthly body and you find the most peaceful happy feeling with Gods arms around you. How you felt in your mothers womb. You are reunited with others that have gone before you that are saved.
And no heaven is not playing a harp sitting on cloud for eternity. My grandmother used to say if that was the truth she would rather be in he'll chasing people with a pitchfork. Sounded like much more fun then she would laugh.She did not allow alcohol in her house because of a father who had problems with it.
As the saying goes, "the struggle is real" and thankful that Cal Preach is a place where we can go and admit that as believers we don't always get it right. Some days we feel weary and that is when we can count on the Lord to come to our rescue as we look to Him. He loves us and understands us and talking to Him truly makes me feel so much better. You are precious, Chynna. You make me laugh and that is so good for us! And at the same time, you always remind us to keep looking to the one who loves us most, JESUS!!!!!
My very first memory was me sitting on my mothers lap and listening and understanding that my older brother was going with my dad onto a ship and I wanted to go too....but noone seemed to understand this and I remember becoming so upset. When I was grown I realized then that I was actually only a baby and couldnt communicate verbally yet. I remember that so clearly. Lol.I love where it says that Jesus....in the days of his flesh....cried out to the Father with tears and crying.....and I think of our lives as being here on earth like a mine-field...constantly dodging something while we are in the days of our flesh! As Song of Solomon says...we are "coming up from the wilderness leaning on our Beloved". 🤣......I had to laugh when you joked about changing the prayer and it being sin. Hopefully people do understand that its a "model" of how to pray❣❤ Thank you Chynna for your heart that you share . Please take a razor and use it ...lol.
Don't worry about the not washing the hair. Our ancestors only washed theirs once per week. I might do mine twice. First memories? Vague images of rooms in the homes I lived in. Keep making an act of the will to choose God, to choose objective Truth. It might not feel good at first but it IS good. Our feelings lie and are fickle. And yes, eternity in the Beatific Vision is AWESOME..."eye has not seen, ear has not heard, what God has ready for those who love Him." Hang in there:+) God bless~
Don’t beat yourself up cuz we all need to break away too from routines. Like I am taking this April spring off from my Pilate sessions so that I can get everything else done in relaxed mind state. Amen! ❤️
I’m so addicted to this channel it’s unbelievable. We love our Chynna!!
I have personalized the our father for years. It feels like it is really coming from me straight to Him. I understand.
The good Lord gave us cats and dogs to hug and love and they love us in a way no man ever can..it's unconditional
