We are disciples of The Way, protectors of 3 children, truth seekers, skill learners, history lovers, budget keepers, music enjoyers, and students of the old ways, who live a simple life, having learned a lot throughout our 23 years of marriage. This is our platform to share what we have learned and are learning.
When thinking about the direction of this channel, we asked ourselves, what could our children gather from our lives, say, if one day they should happen to walk down some of the same roads that we once travelled? And why not extend our experiences to our viewers also? We want this to be a place to come & glean according to what is relevant & relatable to the viewer. Our prayer is that this channel will be a helpful tool & valuable resource that brings glory to our Heavenly Father, because only through Him, "I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content." Philippians 4:11

Absolutely beautiful! ❤
Thank you so much!
Such a wonderful job on such a beautiful song! God bless all of you!🙏❤😊
Thank you! God bless you!
I'm so grateful for forgetting to watch. I don't think it was my memory actually. I was looking forward to seeing a celebration 😢
God bless!
Beautiful! 🙂
Thank you!
Surprised Ash plays piano as well. Impressed 👍.
This was so much fun, singing and worshiping with our siblings in Christ!
It sure was! That was so fun!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful time of worship with us. I so enjoyed seeing the smiling faces when the hymn was done! :)
That was a precious part of the video. Just praising our Savior together and the contentment it brought to each of us! Glory to Him!
I was looking for something meaningful on KZread this afternoon, and this premiere showed up as a selection - four years ago? I guess I missed a whole lot in between, but I'm glad you kept at it. Blessings to all of you!
Well that's nice to hear! Yes, I started this channel back near the end of 2019 and then life got very busy for our family, so I placed my channel on hold for a few years until around December, a year ago. Then I began posting sporadically here and there. Then the LORD opened up a season in my life that I could begin slowly again earlier this year! Now I am happy to have David with me! I didn't think I would ever want to get back into posting again, as it takes up quite a bit of time, and opens up your life for everyone to see, but the LORD opened the door and through this channel, we have been very blessed by this community. Blessings to you and your family and thank you for being a part of it!
@@seekingcontentment It's a blessing for me to watch and listen to all of you share and live out your walk with our Messiah!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have learned marriage the same way as you, my dear brother and sister in the Lord Yeshua, and learned to trust the Lord my God in everything. 💯🙏💯 - Best regards Dina&Kenneth
Amen! May we all continue to trust in Him to make straight our paths. God bless you, Dina and Kenneth!
Isn't it amazing how God turns our severe tests into our testimonies and the very things we can use to encourage others who are walking through what we have gone through in the past? Thank you for sharing your hearts and testimony! May the Lord continue to bless you both!
Truly! Our prayer is that the LORD will use these regrets to help others. Thank you so much for always being such an uplifting sister in Christ!
Thank you for sharing your experiences
Struggling to stay strong in those convictions…I can relate so much to that cuz I was also the first in the marriage to come to Christ and what a circus that was lol But all worth it. I remember us both apologizing to each other for like a week straight for all the stuff we put each other through before we found Christ. Forgiveness, cuz we were both fallen 💞 It is very confusing yes when other Christian’s say “oh it’s ok to do this and that”. But I can’t shake those convictions. I hope and pray you both grow stronger and that I stay strong in my convictions as well. God bless you and your family.
May you and your marriage continue to grow in the Lord as He guides and directs your path. I praise Him for what He did in your marriage. Standing steadfast in the Lord with the convictions He gives, especially when no one else is with you, is difficult, but praise God, He is our strength and our help and will uphold us with his right hand. (Isaiah 41:10).
It's interesting how almost every family around the world faces the same problems (money, relatives, immaturity...). It's nice to talk about this. Good job!
Very true. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment.
Thank you brother for speaking about this. I have not seen the opening events of the Paris Olympics, but I have heard about how Christ was openly mocked. I am disgusted and outraged by what I have heard described. Again, thank you
Us as well, Sister. May we continue in obedience to Him, be comforted in His strength and continue on with steadfast endurance.
Great video. I so agree that it’s important to let those loved ones in ours lives truly know what they mean to us.
Absolutely.
🙏🏻 Amen! I absolutely agree
Wow, this was really good.. thank you for the encouragement!!
Thank you for watching and commenting. I am glad it encouraged you.
I like listening to you two. Ash great work on playing 😊.
Good day brothers in faith. What are your thoughts on Catholicism?
Hello, Thank you for your question. This channel really isn’t about these type of discussions, but I will try to give you a very brief summary on my thoughts on catholicism. On a side note, my grandfather was a very devout Catholic. It is a man made religion with man centered rules that stems from Rome. There are many Bible verses that contradict the Catholic teachings. Here is an example: 1 Timothy 2:5-6 “5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.” This proves you do not need to confess your sins to a priest. “John 14:6 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” No need for a Pope or priest. Like other man centered religions it’s based on works and is not Biblical based and waters down who Jesus actually is. I won’t get into the worship of Mary and the saints. (Idol worship). I hope this answered your question. Be blessed!
@@seekingcontentment I just wanna begin by saying that both of you are making a very Good job with your children, I found this channel seeing your daughter’s first. If it’s possible, I would like to know why for you it’s a man made religion. With the confession, it is my understanding that it’s not made to the priest, but to Christ through the priest, because they are anointed; they are just the means, not the ones that forgive you. The need of pope and priests I suppose is debatable, beacuse if by some way, all lof them disappear, we as christians (in the same hypothetical case) are still here, with teachings and some parto f the truth revealed. But in contrast, even you, I assume, go to a church to hear someone speaking about the teachings of Christ, and your children also take advantage of you to learn; I understand that the difference is the act and preparation that made a priest anointed, and the pope is just a man which job is to safeguard the truth, not to invented it. why Waters down who Jesus actually is? I’m curious The parto f the idol worship is totally comprehensible, but at the same time delicate. Throught the differences between christians, it’s bad seeing Catholics as pagan sor worse. Images and statues could be idols, if you pray to them, but for catholics this are just that, images; like one step more to concéntrate at the moment of praying, or to make a public statement that in a certain location, the ones there are christians. Some images have a Deep power (not magic or totems or something like that) like the Virgin of Guadalupe in Mexico. It resisted a bomb that damage the temple, and was able to whithstand another attack with acid. Those kind of physical figures are relics, but still, not idols… Like putting a statue of Christ to commemorate him, but not to pray directly to the statue. If the whole vatican as a city is destroy, the church is still alive. Is always Good to conversate with other Christian brothers politely, thanks for that. God be with you and your family.
We appreciate your kind words towards us. It is only though Christ that we are who we are. He has been very kind to our family and we are thankful. I honestly do not want to get into a deep discussion about this, as whether Catholic, Protestant, whatever one claims to be, our advice and how we have learned is always by going to Scripture and leaning on the Holy Spirit to guide us to the correct understanding. I would advise you not to go to any person (myself of otherwise) for advice or direction, but to go straight to the Heavenly Father in prayer. 1 John 2:24-27 "24 Let therefore abide in you that same which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning, shall remain in you, ye shall also continue in the Son, and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even that eternal life. 26 These things have I written unto you, concerning them that deceive you. 27 But that anointing which ye received of him, dwelleth in you: and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and it is true and is not lying, and as it taught you, ye shall abide in him." We, who are in Christ and have the Holy Spirit abiding within us, do not need a teacher, or a mediator, we have the Holy Spirit. You had mentioned "But in contrast, even you, I assume, go to a church to hear someone speaking about the teachings of Christ,". Did you happen to watch the video? We do not go to a church, nor do we learn under a man. We read the Bible and ask the LORD for guidance in our understanding of the Scriptures. We have all we need, praise GOD. Should we decide to listen to someone give their thoughts on any topic (secular or spiritual), okay, but they are not our leaders and we do not need them to teach us. And yes, of course, because I am my children's earthly father, I am the one who the LORD has placed over my home. They learn under my authority, as with anything. But this does not in any way mean that they couldn't learn things on their own (again, secular or spiritual). I again thank you for the kind words you left us. We are blessed by the LORD that each of our children have chose to use their lives in obedience to our Heavenly Father. God bless you and I hope that you and yours have a wonderful day in the Lord.
Beautiful. I love this hymn!
Amen Brother !
What you are saying is so true! Thank you for encouraging us all to study the Word ourselves and to be open to the Spirit guiding us into all truth. I believe the truth of God's word is easily revealed when we lay aside our traditions and preconceived ideas. God bless you and your family!
Absolutely. Thank you for your encouraging comment.
O God, our help in ages past and our hope for years to come! How true those words! "Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations." Psalm 90:1 Praise God for His steadfastness and faithfulness. He will see us through! You both did such a beautiful job! Sending our love and hugs to you today!
Maybe I am wrong, and that is not a ukelele helping you ladies with this hymn, but it surely sounds like it. The instrument is mocked, by some but I gained new respect for it from some of Joshua Aaron's worship music. Nicely done! All glory to Him!
Your right! It is a ukelele. This was the first stringed instrument that Ashley picked up to learn. We all enjoy the sound of this instrument! Thank you!
So sad the world we live in😭. Thanks for shining a light on this.
"He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not." (Isaiah 53:3) It was terrible to see this but sadly not a surprise.
God bless you brother and yes, the perfect verse you brought up. For those that want to see it: Galatians 6:7 (KJV) “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” God is loving and indeed, is love. He is also just and His glory demands justice. All sin will be answered for and punished to accordingly in the lake of fire where those without Christ will experience the second death; the destruction of their very soul.
Oh, dear Lord, help us. When we heard this, I was literally sick to my stomach. It is so blasphemous and despicable that they would dare to spit in the face of our dear Lord and Savior and mock him like this! The foul spirit that is driving that sickening agenda is one of the most vile ones yet. Praise God that Jesus is coming back, like you said, and He will have the last word and laugh at their calamities. Sometimes, it is hard for me to understand why He tarries His coming, but my desire is to remain faithful to Him all the days of my life. I sure do appreciate you and your dear family. God bless you all.
It made us sick too. May His children continue to seek after Him and live our lives to honor and glorify our Savior. God bless you.
You remind me of the way my Papaw always taught. He didn't have much education, but he leaned solely on God to teach him the Scriptures and to guide him into all truth. Those old-time saints had it right. This was so refreshing and such a blessing to me. May God bless you for speaking the truth.
Your grandfather sounds like a man I would have enjoyed knowing. "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;" 1 Corinthians 1:27 "The sacrifices of God are a contrite spirit: a contrite and a broken heart, O God, thou wilt not despise." Psalm 51:17 I pray that as christians, the Lord will pull us away from religion and bring us back to leaning on the Scriptures, through the Holy Spirit's guidance, for our lives.
Amen. It does make a believer sick. Thanks for your video. 🤍👑🤍
I was appalled! We got to pray for their souls
That is bizarre what they did. I thought they were going to do something wicked again during their new opening ceremony, and sure enough, they did. Such wickedness 😠
Yes it is, and it's all a part of the plan. May God continue to help us discern and stay far away from the matters of this world as we continue our pilgrimage home.
@@seekingcontentment Amen!
Unreal! Sorry you had to see that mate we see alot of this nowadays Christianity is getting to be the biggest target to mock or poke fun of. And it really is truly disgusting and pathetic. we are all in this together, we don't stop our love for God and we never will. God bless your beautiful family, something they probably don't know how to have. But keep going and ignore all of that have a great day or night.❤🙏
Very true and God promises He will not be mocked. A day of reckoning is coming, may these people repent and turn to Christ for forgiveness of this vileness. God bless you and yours.
Based on what I have heard, many a times, if not always, s9tanic rituals are performed during high profile sport games. Unbeknownst to the audience. And anyone who watches those "performances", even if they are watching it only as spectators, are participating in that s..... ritual. So many people say, I have never participated in one of those rituals but the answer is, most likely. you have, just as a spectator. You can participate as an actor or as a spectator. Why do they perform those rituals in front of the masses and want the participation of the nations? Because each time one of those rituals are performed, the veil of darkness that covers the earth becomes darker and stronger. Matthew 5:8 says, "Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see GOD." Much love and peace to you Brother and Yours. Thank you for sharing this information.
We believe that. That's why we must continually ask our Heavenly Father for discernment and stay far away from darkness. God bless you and yours as well as we continue this journey home.
I agree with you 100% God is not mocked they will find out when they have to face the real Jesus they will be in for a rude awakening for sure when they find out he is not some false hippy peace only portrayal of his character but he is also a God of war vengeance and justice as well!
Absolutely. There will come a day of reckoning. May they repent before that day comes.
Had to find this on KZread, and was shocked...!!
The gates of Hell cannot prevail against the Kingdom of God. Do not fret over the evil. The treasure's of God are for his children. Don't let one of your eyes see the darkness. We are the children of light.
A perfect example is the Rapture doctrine. The ultimate Sy-Fi (Beam me up Scotty) mentality. It teaches; you don't need to endure to the end through Faith.
You got it.
I totally agree, thank you for speaking about this. Can you tell me which Bible version you recommend? Or what do you read?
We read from the Geneva, the KJV and the ESV.
@@seekingcontentment thank you
We have been sticking closer to the first 2 and weaning off of the 3rd. Those are the 3 we have in our home.
❤
I am not alone! I am not alone! Revelation 18:4 says, ".... Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." As ungodly as it may sound, I have been strongly moved not to place a foot in a "church building". If I do it, in disobedience, I do it at my own peril.
Be encouraged, even if all men forsake you, you are never alone. Those who are in Christ, have a friend Who sticks closer than a brother and praise GOD, He is our Shepherd and the only One we need.
@@seekingcontentment I thank you Brother for your words of encouragement! Numbers 6:24-26
It takes a lot of courage to say what you said. And it will definitely not make you popular at all. We were created to worship God, to serve Him only, to seek His face and to know Him. We have to point the nations to God and to His Word, not to man or precepts of man. The Word of God has become a money making machine and perhaps one of the most lucrative commodities in the world.
I understand, and it's alright. I'm not on this channel to be popular or to be liked by man, but to glorify my Heavenly Father and Savior. By God's grace, I will continue to speak Truth to whomever the LORD brings here to listen. And you're right, we aren't here to sugar coat the Word of God, but to be a beacon of light pointing others to Him through His Word. Appreciate you stopping by and commenting. God bless.
@@seekingcontentment HalleluYah! Glory to our Heavenly Father and to Jesus! Thank you for your kind words.
💯100% AGREE💯Amen!💯 I am so grateful to Yeshua The Messiah, that we are not alone in this, which you speak of, David. My father always told us( and still do); Read the Bible as it says, check with the Bible what the preachers say. Because the Bible and the Holy Spirit are the ones who should guide us in everything.
Brother, it sounds like you had one godly father. Praise God for His mercies. May the Holy Spirit continue to guide us in spirit and in truth. God bless you.
I grew up in the modern LDS corp. and that church teaches its members so convincingly that whatever the 'Prophet' (the President of the church) says is true. No matter how crazy whatever they say sounds, it's true... no questions asked. They teach that even if they tell you to do something wrong, if you do it, you will be blessed... BUT... the 'Prophet' will never tell you to do something wrong, so do it. They even teach that if the 'Prophet' teaches something that goes against scripture, go with what he says. This is a prime characteristic of a cult. Praise God that He woke us up, and taught us to not put our trust in the arm of flesh, but in Him! "Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. . . . Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is." (Jeremiah 17:5, 7) Even the Book of Mormon, ironically, touches on that subject more emphatically.
Praise God, indeed. He's waking our family up to things too, Brother. May we always trust His ways above man's and hold everything we are taught, from anyone, I don't care who, up to the Holy Scriptures. His WORD is a lamp unto our feet and a light to our path. God bless you, Ben.
@@seekingcontentment Amen, praise God!
