She put idols in the house of the lord and you think your mother who served the church would be proud of it? You have scales on your eyes ma'am. Allow me to remove them. There is only one way, the way of the Lord Jesus. This is a tragedy that even a cursory glance of the Bible would reveal.

@@person6768 She didn't say her mother would be proud of the house, she said that she, personally, liked what was done to save it -- architecturally, I'd assume. Also, I'd agree with your "house of the Lord" position if it was still being used as one. However, the building hasn't been used as a church/place of worship for many years and the Lord's people have taken their prayers elsewhere. It's Ms. Batiz's home now (one with a rich, blessed, history) and she can do what she likes with it. Remember, a building is just a building unless the Lord's people are gathered there

I wish I was your friend. I love your home. I’m glad you did that. In England because of the higher Muslim populations they have been buying them and turning it to mosques. In one way I see they saved these old churches and they did repair work, but the pews are removed and the alter is removed. If it is Catholic they bring down all the statutes and paint over Christian paintings in the ceilings.

This woman is beautiful and her home is a reflection of her amazing spirit. What an inspiration. Thank you for sharing her home and story.

Had no idea she was the person that invented "Poo-Pourri"! She seems very nice and down to earth. Loved seeing her beautiful home. What an amazing space!!

This might be my favorite house tour, but I say this every time I watch one of the tours. Absolutely love her home.

This woman is incredible. I resonste w what she said, " doing for her kids, family, now it's her time, what she wants.." absolutely. The details, the fun.. I saw a living room swing in a decor book years ago and always wanted one.. good for you for fighting for your swing.. everything is so thoughtful in design and decor...

Suzy is one of the most BEAUTIFUL Beings I've ever seen, she's has Depth, she is Kind, she is Sweet, she is Strong and she's in ALIGNMENT. Love her vision, love her house... love her! Thank you!!!

I'm only barely 8 minutes into this interview and I love ALL Homeworthies, but this particular one has me "shook"! I've laughed and cried already watching her. I can relate to everything she's saying on this journey called life; I'm in a similar transition and transformation in my life. The road is wide open and I'm so excited to craft beauty around me, energetically and physically. I love her aesthetic, her vision and most of all, her energy. Cheers to you, Suzy. I'm with you on this journey too! And BEAUTIFUL home!!!

I can feel her healing powers through the video. I cried when she said there is a lot of myths out there that everyone is out to get you and no one wants to help you. But actually people want to help you. Just ask for help. That was a huge eye opening moment for me. Thank You Homeworthy this was a very nice video. Not only the home but getting to know a little more about Suzy Batiz

This woman is Amazing, her story is really inspiring. I never knew you could live in a Church, but she made the place beautiful ❤

This lady is beautiful inside and out, and she has made her home into a sanctuary again. Thanks so much for sharing!

I am so impressed she chose to do this herself. She made it truly her own home reflecting her style and her vibe.

I'm not a fan of a church as a home, but I enjoyed her story. She oozes with creativity and is so spiritually and energetically connected. No wonder she sounds peaceful and successful.

I could not live day to day in such an expansive space where even one’s voice gets both absorbed and amplified in the vastness. But I’m certainly appreciative of her vision and the result!!! She has a great story and has done a wonderful job in making the space her home.

Just started watching & had to pause & comment that I absolutely laughed OutLoud - when you said you thought You'd "probably dated too many people on potential..." I just bet there are many of us here watching who can relate to that statement! Lol!! I know I can! Ok - now back to this incredible home - I am so excited for the tour to see what you have done to the place - I can tell just by the decor that I see in the opening pans of the space - like that beautiful - I think it was an Angel Sculpture in the kitchen - that I am going to enjoy your taste & aesthetic....

I’ve never seen anything like this! Sooo incredible!! She seems so brave and authentic! I hope this space keeps her safe and secure and feeling loved ! I have a bunch of plants and it never occurred to me to name them but after watching this video, I will! Great video 🥰🥰🥰

She is a breathe of fresh air! The church/ her home is peaceful and comfortable.

I love her energy. She seems so relatable, kind, and genuine. She has a gift and that’s seeing potential in a space and style. ❤

Love Suzy she is a really good human, what an extraordinary personality, she is so open and candid. Her home had so many beautiful pieces and the sense of space and serenity was heart-warming. Her self-perception in saying "I can see potential in things and I've had too many boyfriends where I could see potential" really resonated with me. Thank you Homeworthy I really like the quirky people and homes you have been showing us lately.

Love her! and love what she's done with this space and how she honored it's history

Same thing with me as Suzy.. I'm going through a separation. I brought a house that needed cosmetic work. I could see a blessing in this house and an opportunity for me to start new. I like when Suzy said "Home is a sacred space to recharge and regroup before you go back out in the world." Beautifully said

My grandfather helped build that church. It is beautiful. You have done an amazing job. I bet he would be proud of your work.

I loved this home tour. Suzy has created a beautiful space to call home; and it speaks volumes that she recognizes the sacredness of a space and shares it with others. A true home/work/creative/spiritual space that she shares with so many. I loved all the synchronicity throughout the telling of her story. And how gracefully she took on the stewardship of such a sacred place. Enjoy!

Suzy, this "temple of transformation" is your place of power. You have lots of things that need to be said to the world and this video was just the start. Use your podcast room. You got this!

Thank you for introducing me to Ms. Batiz!!! I loved her story and I am inspired by her words of wisdom.

I’m shocked! This woman and the church house are unbelievable. It’s like another planet experiencing. Bravo and thank you!

This is probably my favorite Homeworthy video to date. What an amazing woman and an amazing space!!

She is so positive and full of life. I will review this many times. I love her spirit!!!❤❤❤

Amazing!!! The house is beautiful, but I am more impressed with the lady. She transmits so much peace that is so contagious. I use her product, makes me happy to know that she’s the creator. I would definitely listen to her podcast if she creates one.

I love your energy. Your home is amazing. I am a single mom of two teenage girls. I have gone through a lot of tough times. I have grown so much as a person through all of it. I love that you are helping other women to heal and grow. I bought my own home in 2019. I love it. It is an old mill house and it has so many unique characteristics. Much love and many blessings ❤️❤️❤️

So great. And then woah at 30:11 was such a suprise story! As I've never heard anyone else deal with so called, paranormal activity in the same way that I have secretly/privately done so over the years! Very simply I say "Nope, I am the authority here, these are the rules and all will abide, period" and anything "ghosty" vanishes. SO happy to hear her deal with it in a straight forward, firm, quick and positive way as well !!! Very encouraging. ❤️

Loved watching this video on KZread today. You mentioned more than once a spiritual advisor saying the energy is bad having several different pieces within the home. You are correct in discarding her comments. Negativity is in the heart of the beholder. I agree with you the items in your home exude no negativity in my opinion. So it sounds like it's more of a personal struggle for that particular individual. Your home is gorgeous. And I also thought often of converting a church into a home. I love your story. You've done a great job with your life and you should be incredibly proud of how far you've come. Much respect. I love the hippie Vibe. Keep on doing you.

I needed to see this video! And I didn’t know that I did. I watch a lot of Homeworthy but this one might be the best you’ve ever done for all the right reasons. What you saw in the video is the real Suzy. I met her many years ago at the Dallas Market when my mother and I had a little shop and we sold Poo-Pourri. She was the real deal then and she still is so many years later. Her church house is amazing and inspirational, just as she is. Thanks so much for sharing this tour. Much ❤ Suzy!

OMG! This is one of the best homes I've ever seen on TV. Suzy talked about "synchronicity," which is a succinct way of saying that, if something is meant, the pieces will fall into place.

I love how you took charge and dominion over your home regardless of what may have taken place in there, commanding your surroundings to work in your favor is amazing and something we don't often think about. Wish you blessings as you enjoy your home and thanks for life changing poop pu ri , I remember when it first came out and I purchased it, my friends argued me down, and now look it's in every household I'm certain.

This is such a beautiful and creative space. The homeowner’s personality is just as beautiful and creative. She and the home have such a calming energy.

Beautiful story, opportunity, and transformation! Love when someone who is passionate about saving the old, and has the ability to do it, does it with love and enough expertise to employ artisans that know their craft. And lastly, love the incorporation of living, breathing things like live plants, work/play spaces, community offerings, and helping others who need lifting up ....... Can't think of a better place to do this than a refurbished old established church that has a new life as a home!

Hello Suzy! Thank you so very much, I needed this. I purchased my childhood 125-year-old childhood home in Philadelphia, PA. I so identify with your journey. I am a teacher about to retire but I've always had the entrepreneurial spirit. My mother and stepdad purchased the home when I was 6 years old and now I'm 65. I work in an old church very similar to your home. It's a private Christian school. I love it! It is an amazing structure. I've been thinking about selling my home but it's so beautiful and you're right when you say you must have a passion for old homes. The thing is... I cannot afford to renovate it right now. I connected with your story on so many levels, especially spiritually. Thank you so very much for sharing your story.... For with God nothing is impossible. Special note* When decided to write this comment I noticed that you had already received 528 of them. My birthday is May 28th! Another special note.... I am a poster child for your product. Teachers use it all the time. ..close quarters. LoL...Thanks again.

OMG I watched this video and thought how cool to live in a church and then I remembered that I live in an old house that was once a church, cape dutch style. On the first night, I experienced a spirit and had the very same conversation days later as she had with the spirit. At first, I was terrified but once I spoke to it I felt a sense of peace. It's never really bothered me again.

What an incredible space - so cool, unique, and beautifully decorated! As a single woman I enjoyed this video particularly bc she shared a lot of stories and moments that she was proud of (eg living room rug) and I can totally relate to the feeling of pride she has. Love to see a successful business women owning her journey and making life more beautiful, no matter the effort it takes. Beautiful home and beautiful spirit!

The most beautiful home I have ever seen, she is so calming and seems like she would be welcoming to so many.

Suzy: your positivity, unique blend of grit/tenacity/soft & flexible mind, and eye for beauty are inspirational! Thank you for sharing you!

An indoor living tree is on my bucket list to manifest in my next home. Love your heart energy. It's why your home is so amazing.

Oh my god!!!!! this has been by far my most favorite tour home ever, the house is amazing; but this Ladyis so inspiring, so positive I just wish I could meet her un hug her, she shines and exudes her love for life.

This is probably one of the best renovations/ preservations that I have seen. I love how the space was elegantly transformed while still respecting the historical architecture. This woman is extremely fascinating and creative. She has so much wisdom to impart and I would definitely listen to her podcast!

Such a beautiful "marriage" between this church, and the woman living there. Love every bit of it. ❤

Your ability to turn a space into a warm and inviting home is truly commendable. The way you brought together elements of design, functionality, and creativity was truly captivating.

What an amazing process she has! She's done beautiful work on this space. Perfect pairing of human and space.

What a fantastic home! The owner is pretty amazing too. Love her outlook on life.

I know exactly how you felt when you walked into your church. I live in a 1864 school house, we toured the house on a Saturday afternoon put an offer in the same day. I told my husband and realtor we had to offer with no conditions. They both thought I should have condition of sale of our home in town but I knew we couldn’t have any conditions. If I had 2 houses I would rent the one in town out if it didn’t sell. I just knew in my gut I was meant to live in this school house. The floor still have the marks where the desks were screwed down, children’s initials are still in the bricks on the outside.

A spiritual, business and creative podcast is definitely something I would love to see you do!

Amazing! My favorite space so far. I live how much she shared and how sweet she is. Love seeing this in an entrepreneur.

Gorgeous home and a lovely woman. So spiritual...and filled with gratitude and the desire to help others. This is my favorite tour thus far. Thanks.

Thank you for repairing and enjoying this old lady Church! I share the experience of entering homes and feeling the spaces resonate throughout my body, and knowing instantaneously that I've found my home for that time (even with no money). What follows: working out a deal, easy and fast sales processes, paying the right price, coming out from behind a pack of previous offers -- it's always always right. The body knows. Also, Poo Pourii is a fantastic product -- thank you.

Feeling loving and deserving.....Love it! She's a beautiful soul. What an incredible home! ✨💕✨
