    Kim is an amazing woman and mother. I love how she spoke highly of CJ’s father rather than talk down on him. Words will never describe how grateful I am to have her and the Stroud family here in Houston.

    I've read and heard of the Stroud family's stories numerous times, but hearing Kim tell a bit of it still brought me to tears. Yes, we have a God who precisely brought blessing out of the brokenness. Where we fall, if we respond in faith and faithfulness, He will turn into something beautiful and nourishing. Thank you for this episode and we look forward to the moms' podcast ❤️

    This is interesting because I just saw a video yesterday talking about how Kobe didn't have much of a relationship with his father because he never approved of Vanessa(Kobe's widow). Kobe seemed surprised by the question asking about his father, and he spoke bluntly and said he doesn't have a relationship with his father, but that hopefully he will in the future. This was around 2011 I think. Kobe's father thought Vanessa was a gold digger because of her mother. So he made his position firmly aware, but that his strong disapproval only pushed Kobe away from having a relationship with his dad. Personally, I believe Amber Rose is no bueno for CJ. I can't imagine Amber having any positive influence on CJ's life like at all. But I don't think it's wise to try to strong-arm someone you love you stay away from a particular person because more often than not, you end up pushing them towards the exact direction you trying to protect them from. Let it be known where you stand with that situation, but still be loving and respect their decision. The city of Houston must pray for his mom and his family, that they may receive wisdom on how to navigate any potential partners for CJ. Also, we should pray that God would protect CJ from the spirit of Jezebel, and preserve him for a godly woman that will help him draw closer to Jesus, not away from him🙏

    Clearly you were not paying attention. She said they had four kids..that means the same father. She also said when he went to prison the two oldest had moved out leaving her with three. So that means one of the oldest was his by another woman or hers but another man. She won’t be the first female that married the wrong guy and the kids suffered as a result. I mean clearly your mother raised an idiot so he who lives in a glass house should not throw stones.
