Seeing three men cry together is some other level of beautiful. Men carry so much…. Inside. I’m glad these men are teaching others how important it is to be there for each other.

This is why it is important for men to have friends they can speak to... Women verbalise, men internalise... I think that is why there is so much suicide with men. They feel deeply and people just don't recognise it.

My mom describes losing my dad as “walking through a mirror and not being able to get back”💔 He was her HS sweetheart. They were only married 11 years with 4 small kids. It’s been 35 years and she has never been with another man. Breaks my heart but I also get it. Thanks for letting me share🫶🏼

Wow 35 yrs a widow, I've gone 3 and will probably be alone the rest of my life. Your mom must be close to you and your siblings to realize her li😮fe is full of joy the way it is. My youngest son has grown to be my best friend and was the rock who held myself and his older brother's together. I admire his strength, courage, love, empathy, care and genuine concern for everyone his life has touched. Both sides of my husband and my family ghosted us after the funeral. I guess we became no fun to be around while we live day by day thru our grief. I've learned the value of having those who stuck it out with us. I thought my children meant the world to me before. Now no words can express their value in my life. I can't imagine my life without my 2 kids. If that's all I can wish to have in my life until I pass - that's all I can ever ask God to bless me with. I'm still learning to live without my husband, family and former friends. Not 1 day goes by I don't feel pain, but this teaches me to value AND THANK GOD for what he has graciously left me with in life. I understand right at this moment that I'm blessed beyond imagination, I still have my children. That's a pain I can't imagine living if they weren't in my l life. I wish I could teach others to have empathy and their value in aiding grieving children. Or else wish I could make the family who walked out of our lives the additional pain the caused and how unnecessary their behavior was to our healing. I doubt I can ever forgive all those who refused to be in our lives as we still today challenge our grieving process.

I lost my only daughter when she was 3 due to an incompetent doctor making a minor error. She was having a procedure that 100% of the people that had it survived until her. Then a year and half later my husband and her father took his own life after being home for only 6mths after his last tour overseas. I truly didn't think I'd survive the grief. I got remarried about 7 years later and then he died from carbon monoxide poisoning 4 years after we got married. February 2nd of this year was the one year anniversary of his death, which is also the day I lost my favorite person in the world, my daddy. Grief is something that I have become so accustomed to and so used to feeling that I am numb to every emotion there is. I feel nothing. It's like living a black hole with no light shining anywhere.

@teresaacevedo1731 Losing a child is a whole new level of grief that I don't wish on anyone. I am so sorry that you have had to feel this pain as well. Of all of my losses, the only one that comes even close is the loss of my daddy. He truly was my most favorite human in the world. Don't get me wrong, losing my first husband was really, really hard. He was my soul mate and my best friend. We were high school sweethearts. When I lost my 2nd husband, it hurt, but it's almost like I was so used to feeling grief that I almost didn't feel it at all. If that makes sense.

I have been in a Similar situation and suffered for years. Felt God had betrayed me. I came back to God on my own terms and felt our relationship was personal. Some people like enjoy church others like myself worship through the beauty in this world❤ My belief system is eternity is a long long time. I believe we pick our lives our cast of characters and come to earth to learn. We can't learn many things until we go through them. This belief allows God to have clean hands. Of course there is that little thing called free will for atrocious humans no soul would ever chose. The sound I let out at my bad news is a sound I couldn't possibly make. I think it's not the human but the soul weeping for the human❤ I believe Blu was left on this earth so you would remain on this earth. Thank you for sharing, your story helps others & helped me❤

I lost my husband at a young age. He was an amazing Christian Ma. My pastors wife said when you reach perfection you Go home to be with the Lord. I fell God is given others a chance to except Him.

I didn’t have the love and admiration for my abusive parents that you guys have when they died. It was almost a relief to begin to heal from all my childhood trauma. But I married a good man, having waited for the right person and having four children, I thought we would grow old and become grandparents together. He was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer and in eight months he was dead. I still feel like I was let down easy having time to prepare, to accept what was happening, to plan for our future without a husband and dad. I have remarried and I’m a grandmother now, but the pain and loss still comes in crashing waves until we can all be reunited with our loved ones in heaven, this life will not be painless!

I hope you are right.

I wrote this for someone who is facing breat cancer treatment sharing what I found got me through Life's trauma. When Facing Life's Trauma In life I've learned to experience my grief, and to cry when I feel the need, it brings me healing. To share with people who are going through the same thing, it gives me a new perspective. To recognize the people who have helped me along the way, it brings me comfort. To reflect on the kindness of people, it warms my heart. To recognize my gift of life, that my story has a purpose, and it can provide healing and encouragement to others. For those facing life's perils, which is common to us all, I pray that God will illuminate these things in your heart and bring you peace.

I hope one day y’all will do a video with the mother and sister of Simmons three from New Orleans were two sisters and one brother were killed by a drunk driver. The mother was in the car and the brothers girlfriend were in the car and they survived. It’s heart breaking but they sharing their to help save lives

I've contemplated suicide after losing my husband but I can't ever put my children thru another loss. I guess I'm here because they need at least one parent in life. It's not easy living this way, my biggest heartache is seeing my children struggle thru life with such loss & grief. A pain a momma can never heal fully and knowing they have to live without their daddy the rest of their lives.

You didn't kill yourself. You're doing good.Jesus is the way,the truth and the life.

I lost my husband, father in law , mother and my son in 3 years time. Losing my son was 17 months ago and its so hard. The grief for them all has been tough. I mean on Jesus each and every day. He is my comforter, my strength and my peace. That's how I'm getting thru it. God has placed a wonderful man of God in my life now who lost his wife. We are helping each other get thru life. We study our Bible together . I know without a doubt God put him in my life. God bless you all. Mason, if you aren't saved, please accept Jesus into your heart and lean on Him to help you thru your great loss. He will help you.

Thank you for sharing. Im dealing with grief also and this helped me not feel so alone. May God help us all heal.

Thank you for sharing your pain of this incredible loss. I only lost one son at 19 & it’s 14 years later & it’s hard. You lost your entire family except your little boy & you have the courage to do this. I admire all of you for the hope you are giving people - this is all of your purpose, to touch people & give them hope. Much ❤️

I lost my Dad and my husband 4 weeks apart, almost 6yrs ago-sometimes it feels like yesterday and sometimes a million years ago….grief never leaves you, but you learn to live beside it. I still have days when something will hit me and I will still cry, but not as much as I did when it was fresh. I think about them every single day- I am the only widow in my group of friends, and it hard, because they “try” and understand, but unless you have been through it, you just don’t…my heart goes out to anyone who has to experience such great loss. ❤

Again another well done episode. I appreciate the rawness you all share. God bless.

Thank you Zeke & Greg for these great episodes. I just found your podcast a couple days ago and I'm really enjoying the content. Thank you Mason for being so incredibly real. The realness and authenticity is what helps the most. As human beings we can all relate in some way to pain, suffering, grief, etc. Sugarcoating it or giving some pat answer is NOT helpful. I truly appreciate you telling your story and continuing to walk through it day by day.

Thank you.

I can't imagine losing my whole family. I am glad atleast Blue survived. After something like this boy you sure would need lots of therapy.

The Bible is very clear on the death of a person. When we were woven together in our mother's womb God knew every hair on our head and before we take our first breath God knows the day and time of our last breath. We are not promised or we cannot extend even one second longer then what the book of life has. Unfortunately it was there time. God knew, we didn't. I know that sucks but it is God's will not ours. The hardest thing to see in tradagies like this is to see the hand of God in it. Believe me though, keep looking and you will find it . God bless all of you in your time of grief.

Here is another example of the supernatural power of God I want to share. My granddaughter is 20 and three days before her baby was born her fiancee was killed in a motorcycle accident . That accident left a three yr old son and soon to be daughter, fatherless. My granddaughter has a history of depression now add postpartum on top of that........ When I saw this totally by accident scrolling on KZread I watched it and thought I'm going to send it to her I thought it would help her. The crazy God part is her boyfriends name was Mason, her last name is Sawyer. When I saw that I know that I know that I know this was from him to her. That's the awesome power of God.

If I lost my kids, I don't know if I could stay here. I'm so grateful your baby boy survived. That was for you. The lord knew if he took all of your family,you would be right behind them. It wasn't your time. Your purpose of being here hadn't been served yet. I know in my heart you are now serving your purpose. Your story touched me so deeply. I will not take for granted what I have. Nothing is promised. Tomorrow is not promised. Never take for granted the life you have, the family you have. Thank you for this story.

Grey ur a God speaking man truly u get it

Gods knowledge is infinite. We are unable to understand the things that happen this side of heaven. One day when you when you go beyond this world He will reveal to you His plan for each of your lives. He will help you understand why things happened as they did. Until that day, find HOPE (whatever that looks like to you, and some days you may have to dig really deep to find it) because that is where we can find the purpose in the pain. I’m so sorry for your tremendous loss. I will sincerely be praying for you.

Your doing good Mason, I hope you can be kind to yourself. Acceptance is such a scary choice especially, because being bitter and throwing in the towel is much more tempting, especially when were angry. Its going to be okay, even if life sucks. Its going to be okay. ☀️for you

“When Bad Things Happen to Good People” by Harold S. Kushner

I couldn’t imagine trying to deal with this kind of grieving without God ! God spared his son for a reason !! Also, Everytime I see a new person on this podcast I think about the Simmons 3. A drunk driver hit their car coming home from a basketball game and 3 teenagers of the same family were killed. The Mom and the sons finance were also on the car and they survived but with injuries. They are also believers in Christ and they go to schools and warn about the danger and death of drinking and driving. They are my hero’s and believe they would be an inspiration to your show. I also pray that Mason knows that by Jesus you will see the rest of your family again. But I admire his strength and will pray for strength for him and Blue and will look forward to meeting them someday also. Until then. Much much love !!!❤💯🙏

We can go through our pain and suffering with Christ and then reach out our hand to those others and show them a way out.

The guy who was falsely accused, and was put in prison wow. But, how God brought him through it.

Sir, i pray for you keisha faith and blue god bless you.

Mason... yes! Internal Family System!

SINCE MY GRANDMOTHERS DIED IN 1991, 1997, IN LATER YEARS FROM 2008 ON, I HAVE LOST MY PARENTS, TWO BROTHERS, OTHER FAMILY TOO. INCLUDING FRIENDS & FAMILY I HAVE LOST OVER A 900 PEOPLE OR MORE!! THE ONLY THING THAT GETS ME THRU IT ALL IS PRAISE AND WORSHIP TO GOD. " THE LORD INHABITS THE PRAISES OF HIS PEOPLE"... AS I PRAISE GODS PRESENCE COMES DOWN & INHABITS ME, COMFORTS ME.

If God didn’t let anything bad happen then we would all be in heaven not earth. We are all given free will and yes He will answer our prayers but he knew that mankind will fall. We are given the chance to offer up our sufferings. No one suffered more than His son. The best saints went through some of the worst sufferings. I urge you guys to keep diving into the faith, Catholicism in particular. Everything will make sense.

That guy asked about the what-ifs. I think Mason had the right answer or the right way to look at. You can not live on or by the what if’s. That will kill you.

I don’t know what I can say or how to say to comfort you, but I pray from the bottom of my hurt that God will give you peace and comfort that can only be found from Jesus. To wipe your tears and heal you body and spirit, and you will be the light to others who goes through hard ship. The scripture says that “we are not like those who has hope”. May the lord our God comfort you and heal your hurt.

We are not like those who has no hope

We will never understand why some people kids specially die. It is unfair but they died on earth and live on eternally in heaven. It is hard to understand and we will never understand God’s purposes. But we are not inmortal, we are not promised a life without suffering. Not matter who it is, age, race. We can only leave our suffering in Gods hands and trust in him. God allows tribulations to use our pain for his glory. And we will see our loves one in heaven. Keep trusting in him. There is a high power, there is a God in heaven and is Jesus Christ. He is the only truth. Our pain without him take us to a dark upcoming. Our pain with him has a greater purpose.🙏🏻🩷

Because Satan is the god of this world for now…. The Bible says he roams the earth, seeking whom he can devour. Add our sinful natures to the mix, and most choose selfish desires. But there will be sickness and injury, trouble and death in this world. Thank God, Jesus came to set us free and take us to heaven, if we trust in Him and that means we must be born again…. Choose to believe, repent and follow His Word.

First I want to say I enjoy your podcast.. As a Christian myself it would be nice if you wouldn’t allow the fowl language to be used on your program.. I really enjoyed the podcast with Greg’s wife as your guest and there was no fowl language used..

None of us are perfect. Being a Christian doesn’t make them perfect. There there because they believe in Jesus Christ. They sin like we all do, but they go to Jesus and Christ and God for forgiveness. Like we all should.8

Mason, its not your fault! Because you were not there god saved blue and someone had to be there for him! He needs you so much. It wasnt your fault. God calls us home in his own way in his own timing.
