💛Letting Go of Society & the World & Embracing the Love of Jesus Christ💛
My move to Mexico in 2021 brought challenges, yet I trust God's purpose in it. I believe the broken life I've lived also has a purpose - to help women navigate theirs or to avoid brokenness altogether. After a lifetime of rebellion, I now live for Jesus Christ. I've shed feminist and liberal views for traditional Christian values and it's on my heart to encourage women in their faith journeys. Together, let's break free from societal norms, striving to embody God's intended purpose for our lives. You're not alone in your struggles; join me on this transformative journey.

We don't have an actual junk drawer, we have a spot in our closet where we keep some tools and paint supplies and it becomes a junk spot especially when my husband brings tools down from the shed for a certain project and then never takes it back and it gets puts in the closet with everything else until I go through it and takes stuff back to the shed. But the biggest place that is our junk drawer is the shed because we have containers of screws and bolts that came from certain things and my husband says I can possibly use it for something else.
@@samanthadudley6412 I admit I never throw away various screws and bolts and stuff like that because they do often come in handy. But I organize all that stuff at least. I might be a bit OCD about it, but it makes me feel better. 😊
I have been wanting to get rid of our kids trampoline because every time my two youngest boys play on it they always wrestle on it and one always gets hurt and the only time it gets used is when they play on it or when the kids next door comes over and plays on it. But my husband says no because the kids still plays on it from time to time but I keep telling him that I want to get rid of it mainly because of the kids could get hurt on it, I would especially feel bad if it is the kids next door that got hurt on it. It is in our backyard and we are planning on fencing in our backyard but I just haven't had the money to do it yet but until then I know the kids next door will still come over and play on it from time to time.
@@samanthadudley6412 Yeah, they can be dangerous. Like old swimming pools and swing sets, some just can’t bring themselves to part with them because they might’ve cost a lot of money or they worry the kids will be upset (even if they no longer use them). But give it time and eventually your husband will be onboard. 👍🏼
hello ma'am, are you the writer of "In The Company Of Killers"? because I just finished the series and I heard there are movies, but I don't know where to watch the movies. maybe you can help. by the way, you look beautiful.
Hello😊. Yes, I'm the author. Thank you so much for the compliment ❤. There's only one movie and it's in Spanish language but has English subtitles. The title is "En Brazos De Un Asesino". You can find it on Amazon. Here is the link (hopefully it posts here for you; if not, just search it on Amazon) : shorturl.at/TBLAA
@@JessicaUntethered thank you so much! i really needed this.💞 by the way, I'm glad that you answered my comment, so I wanted to tell you about my opinion about your books. they were really quite exciting and amazing books! there were a lot of things that surprised me in each book. I started crying in the last 2 books now that the series is over. so i really enjoyed while reading. thank you for your books❤️❤️
@@melekleisinne Thank you for reading. 😊🙏🏼 I’m so glad you enjoyed them. ❤️
God bless you
@@lexiecousins6306 Hi Lexie 😊❤️🙏🏼 Thank you and may God bless you as well.
You've learned how capitalism in our current system is all about consumerism and using your human desires for comfort and security against you as a consumer. I guess your god isn't a capitalist.
When I was in college, I got introduced to Wicca, and practiced it for twenty years. As you might expect, it "worked" for me off and on. My spells would bring me what I wanted, what I cast for, and then something would happen that would bring the opposite. At the time, I thought it was because of "negative energy," and would just keep casting spells to counteract it. Of course, now I know that this happened because what I was unknowingly serving was not God, or "a god," but the enemy, and the enemy loves nothing more than to taunt and torment people. My final spell was cast two weeks after I started dating a Christian man. My plan was for us to be a mixed faith relationship. I figured he could go ahead and be a Christian, and I'd keep being a Wiccan. But I did want to be a good girlfriend, and reverse all of the previous spells I had cast about another person and to keep Christians away from me. I did part one of the spell. As I began part two, the absolute worst feeling I have ever had washed over me. I suddenly knew who I was serving and where I was going if I were to continue on this path. At this same moment, a firm but loving voice entered my mind. It said, "You don't need spells! You are my child and I love you. I was always here." This happened so quickly, I don't know if that voice came first, or if me praying "Jesus? I don't want this anymore. I can't do this. I feel like a slave to this. I want to give my life to you" was first. But they both happened, and the second I prayed that prayer, the evil presence turned tail and fled. I jumped up out of the bathtub I'd been using to cleanse myself for my spell, put on some mundane sleepwear, and walked back to my room, thanking my new Lord and Savior for saving me. The room, which had been my main spell casting area, had never felt clean before, even though I deep cleaned the place, dusting, vacuuming, and changing sheets every single week, and took at least one shower a day, sometimes two, every day that I lived there. That night, it finally felt clean. I slept peacefully that night for the first time in a long time, and upon waking the next morning, I put all of my witchcraft supplies into the dumpster to be taken to the dump and incinerated, and texted my boyfriend that I had been saved by Jesus. I then learned that my boyfriend had been praying for me, and had asked his whole church to pray for me, since we first became friends and he learned I was practicing witchcraft. The man who was my boyfriend is my husband now. And me...I no longer believe in religion of any sort. I don't need a religion. I just need Jesus.
I'm so happy for you I've been in your shoes I raised all my children with no child support but I scraped pennies to by diapers and formula their dad was an alcoholic and I was the breadwinner in the family no matter what I did I had to climb ladders down quick sand and get out there was always somebody there to help me out and that somebody was God
I’m so glad you got the help you needed. We can live rough lives but God is always there. ❤🙏🏼
Many of us have had similar experiences. It is in Christ that we discover who we truly are. God help you to continue on!
You are so right! Thanks for stopping by my channel.😊❤️
Good video, God bless you
Thank you so much for watching. 😊
G-d IS real! Christ WILL return! Feeling inadequate. I hadn't considered it as a lie from hell. You've given me something to think about. Especially with the everything going wrong part! Ill be talking to my havenly Father about this. Thank you. Keep going, Jessica! Be encouraged - you've got truth to share - keep showing up and the L-rd will provide the increase. In the interim He's sanctifying you. Purifying you in the refiners fire. ❤🔥🙏
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words! ❤️😊🙏🏼
❤ SO much to be grateful for! Thank you for the reminder.
😊❤️🙏🏼
WOW, Jessica!! The good L-rd seems to have us in the same spot, we're being grounded! While He is taking care of us, He has us in a scary spot too. All I can think of is Psalm 46:10, the story of Jesus/ Peter walking on water ( for a second) and I praise G-d for His goodness, His love, His mercy - when the anxiety rises I focus on God's character. We too are out of options with no moves left to make. Could you consolidate your projects into one place that would be everything? I'm praying for you. Just no a/c would do me in 😢.
I'm starting to think the reason my prayers aren't being answered is because I'm not listening to the Holy Spirit and that He has been trying to get me to do something, but I'm ignoring Him. I just recorded an episode yesterday about this, but it won't be released on my channel until August 23 (yes, I have episodes scheduled up until late August). Anyway, I guess time AND PATIENCE will tell? 🙂 I will pray for you too!
This was so encouraging thank you!
Thank you so much for watching. ☺
I am so enjoying your transparency! I absolutely can relate to that cycle you mention about doing something then deleting it. The excitement to start something then losing interest. It certainly is frustrating. Right before I 'found' you I made a KZread then deleted it (one of many and I don't have a youtube😂). Keep doing what you're doing we won't know until we're on the other side of heaven what this is all about. Yet I do know G-d is sovereign. He sees all, He knows all, He'll use it all and will waste nothing. I've prayed for you and will continue to do so - stay strong - you're encouraging me (and only G-d knows how many other) at 1700 miles away!
It can be so frustrating and discouraging at times, but with God’s love I’ve learned to accept it and move on (or be patient!). If you ever start a channel, let me know. 😊 Thank you for your prayers. ❤️🙏🏼
I don't believe in coincidence, only divine appointments/assignments - you're channel came into my life at just the right time. Thank you for this encouraging word. I like what you said about how you feel more like a woman when you speak with grace and kindness - it's true!
Yes! It has been so freeing to me! Thank you so much, Julie, for your sweet comment and for watching. 😊❤️🙏🏼 May God bless you in all that you do.
Thank you for sharing. God bless you and your family.
Thank you so much for watching and May God bless you are yours as well. 😊❤️🙏🏼
I think it's so interesting that you went through that and learned an important lesson. I read your book in 2012 and I loved it, which made me search for you on social media and now I'm here, learning from you too. How amazing! I've been looking for a job for a while and sometimes I feel so hopeless. But I try to be grateful for what I have now, like I get to spend more time with my daughter and study and do things I enjoy. Maybe I am not ready yet, and I try to remember that God knows the right time and I just need to trust Him. Thank you for reminding me. Have a great week! ♥
Definitely amazing how God works! I'm just glad and feel blessed that He made us meet. 😊 🧡 While you're still looking for a job, you're right to be grateful for what you have now, especially being able to spend time with your daughter. Maybe you could try to do something within your home to make some money. You could try online stuff like Etsy, start a KZread channel (I'd definitely be a loyal subscriber!😊) and/or a podcast. You could just do something as a side hobby and see where it takes you. But yes, just trust in God and His timing. He will take care of you!
@@JessicaUntethered Thank you for these great suggestions!😊Although I don't have a "typical" job, I am a freelance translator, which does help but it does not provide a steady income. I have also published two children's books on Amazon, which I wrote with the help of my creative daughter (with Portuguese and English versions). I've always liked writing, since I was a kid. Sometimes I feel like everything I try to do does not work out very well. On the other hand, I am grateful because I have a home, food, health and the most important things in life ❤
@inesmiyamoto763 Oh wow, what are the titles of the books? I’m curious! And I’ve been feeling that for a long time now with my writing - nothing seems to work out anymore. I’ve shifted my full-time work focus from writing fiction to writing non-fiction stuff for this channel. I was surprised, but when I did that, and started writing Christian content, my writers block seems to have disappeared. I’m very passionate about writing content for this channel now and I don’t think about writing fiction much anymore. I guess I’m trying to say that whatever God is calling you to do, is what will most likely stick and work out for you. 😊❤️
@@JessicaUntethered I answered your comment but somehow it's not showing up 🤔 Let's see if it does this time. My books are "Rainbow Bunny" and "The Caring Hedgehog", but you will find them if you search for my name (Inês Miyamoto). I also translated a book written by a friend. I'm glad you found your purpose and I'm sure I will find mine as well ❤
@@inesmiyamoto763 I ordered and read "The Caring Hedgehog" - So cute! The fact that you can translate is a great gift. Maybe you should reach out to indie authors and offer to translate their books into Portuguese. Of course, you've probably already done that!
In the old days we would keep up the the jone's, now with the internet everyone is our neighbors, like the Kardasians.
👍🏼
having kids is a pyramid scheme-no thank you
Hi. This makes me so happy. I'm having a rough time because of my job. So because of that I'm under a lot of pressure and strss. So can't wait for the WOTIF ❤❤❤❤😊😊. Because I could really use an escape from my reality. My favorite book!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤ I have been promoting it every chance I got. I can honestly say it's one of your best work !!! Greetings from Estonia❤
I enjoyed every minute of this trip. It was great to do this with my sister and boys in a place I've been going to for over 25 years. To let them enjoy nature and use there imagination is always a joy for me. Thanks for going with us on the last day of the year 2023.
Loved it! 😊❤️
This was actually quite relaxing to watch and listen to! I liked the idea of leaving the sound on. I hope you enjoyed the quality time with your family 😊
Yes, it was a beautiful day and I enjoyed every second of it with them. 😊 ❤️
This place is magnificent! Nicely preserved guys 👏👏
Thank you! Yes, it’s so beautiful there. 😊
I'm glad you've been there for your mom but you are going home to your husband. Interesting that your symptoms go away in state. Water?
Yes it’s very odd how quickly my symptoms disappear when I’m in the States. We were thinking the water too, even though we drink “supposedly” clean, filtered water. 🤷♀️
@@JessicaUntetheredI'm wondering if you need to also boil the water and pray over it.
and why do I get recommended this bullshit 😴
Fr
Reading the Bible is the quickest way to make an atheist. It's garbage literature, a poor moral 🧭, and full of inconsistencies.
what about all the science that contradicts the Bible?
Yet there are 3 major religions based on the same text and within those religions there are 100s of different sub groups. If it was the word of god how come he would let it be misconstrued leading future generations astray? Can you even be sure what your reading is the same text as the original when so much context is lost in translation?
Merry CHRISTmas
Merry Christmas to you! 😊🎄🎁
Amazing, as always. It's important to have reliable resources to guide us through this journey. Thank you for sharing yours. I love the YouVersion Bible App! I use it every day and I'm always following a plan. I used it to read the Bible in a year and I finished last year. As for the other resources, I will check them out.
Apparently, I never saw this comment - I'm so sorry I never replied. I hope the resources help you! ❤😃
@@JessicaUntethered No worries. Life has been crazy lately and I haven't been able to watch your recent videos. I'll catch up as soon as things settle down 😊❤
@@inesmiyamoto763 Don’t feel bad - I haven’t uploaded a new video in over a month. But I’ll be back to uploading soon.
Well, I'm not over 40, I'm actually closer to your children's age. But I still did many important things when I wasn't really a Christian. I mean, I've always believed in God, but it wasn't a priority for me to pray, to follow God's will and all that, which I'm sure you understand. For example, I've been married for 9 years but we never got married in a church, it's only a civil marriage, and since I became a Christian, I've wanted to get married in church, so I've been praying for my husband to want the same. He's like I used to be, believes in God but Christianity is not really his priority. What I mean is, even if I'm still quite young, it's been difficult to adapt to a different lifestyle as well, so I get what you say. Like you said, we shouldn't follow society, but God, and that tends to be challenging. By the way, since you talked about marriage, have you read the book "The meaning of marriage" by Timothy Keller? I read it last year and I think you would like it 💜
It's very difficult to enter into a Christian lifestyle (no matter your age) especially when you're already married and your husband or wife isn't on the same page as you. But never give up! A great Bible verse for this situation is (1 Peter 3:1 - Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives) Never stop praying that God will give your husband a new heart. (Ezekiel 36:26 - I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.) I will definitely be praying for you and your husband as well. 😊❤ The Enemy wants you to give up, so remember that when you get discouraged over the situation. No, I haven't read that book yet, so I'll have to add it to my list for sure.
@@JessicaUntethered Thank you for the advice and for praying for us ♥ I will keep praying and do everything I can to stay on the right path, hoping I can take my husband with me. He already supports the fact that I teach our daughter about God and that she goes to church with me, so I believe it's a good sign.
@@inesmiyamoto763 Yes, that’s a very good sign. I have faith things will change for the better in your marriage and you’ll both be on the same page in your faith. A lot of times it takes one a little longer than the other, but I believe he will make it there. 😊❤️
@@JessicaUntethered Thank you so much 🥰
I brought the newest paperback version of the EUTS. It just got delivered. It's so beautiful. So now I have two of them, the original one and the latest. Can't wait to add Winds Of The Iron Feather to them❤❤❤❤😊. I wanted to upload pic of them both I just dunno how😢
Awesome - thank you. 😊❤️ Yeah, I don’t think photos can be uploaded in KZread comments.
@@JessicaUntethered Of course, you're most welcome! 😇😊❤️. I'm gonna have a vacation coming up soon, so I'm gonna start with the project of remodeling one room into my very own personal libary. Like in the beauty and the beast, that's my end goal XD. So I'm buying books that I already have on my Kindle in paperbacks aswell to make that dream come true. And I think I'm gonna scream, cry, laugh and jump from happiness when I can add Winds of the iron feather also to these two. Because only then the set and my heart will be complete😇😊❤️🤗
@@laivikovalenko9551 Wow! That would be so nice! I used to dream of having my own library, too. 🥰 I hope you’ll send me photos when you finish it!
@@JessicaUntethered I hope I can find the place where I could send you the photos when I'm done. So you could see them😇😊. Then I'll definetly send you one. And in the meantime I'm gonna keep praying and hoping for Winds Of The Iron Feather to come.
@@laivikovalenko9551 I’ll DM you my email address somehow when you get it finished. Or you can DM them to me on Instagram. 😊
I will definitely read any Christian books you write. I find it so interesting that your books are always "the right books" for whatever I'm going through. I really don't know how to explain. But recently, I've been reading Christian fiction and enjoying it very much. Now, Christian fiction/non-fiction books written by you - an amazing combination that I certainly won't miss.
Wow thank you so much - you truly made my day! 😊 You really don’t know how much that means to me. Right now, I’m almost don’t with a non-fiction Christian book. After I publish it soon, I’ll be working on a couple of Christian books both fiction and non-fiction. ❤️
Done with**
@@JessicaUntethered I'm glad ❤ Really looking forward to reading them
Hola Jessica saludos !!! Traducir al español por favor !!!
If you click on the "Settings" icon on the bottom/right of the video, then click on "Subtitles" you can choose to "auto generate" any English subtitles to Spanish. 😊
I just listened to this on Spotify forgetting you had a YT channel. If God ever blesses you with the go ahead on a Christian fiction series I'd be very interested. I'm starting a Christian book club.
Hello. 😊 It's nice to meet you! I do intend to write Christian fiction, that is for sure. In addition to my non-fiction Christian works, I've been working on fiction as well, so be on the lookout for updates here on my KZread and on my Spotify channels. I'd love to work with you later on your book club, if you'd like - just let me know!
@@JessicaUntethered very cool! The book club will be local to my church. I just need to get off my butt and get it started.
@@hopecobbledpots Oh ok! Well, I’ll definitely announce when I publish my fiction works. 😊
I really really hope that we get to read something new and amazing by you. And maybe some sequel to a certain amazing story❤❤❤ can't wait. I miss your writing😢
I did put a note in the video reassuring readers that I still plan to finish WINDS OF THE IRON FEATHER, so no worries! 😊
I'm so glad your prayers were answered!
Thank you so much - me too! 😊❤
I know that God is good amén 🙏❤️😇
Yes, He is. 🙏🏼🙂
That man sounds like he wanted to be, as they say in the American urban vernacular, a "player."
Yes, I believe you're right.
@@JessicaUntethered Indeed! Great videos and take care! :-D
Saludos 👍
Happy to have you here 🙂
Hello Yesica me gustan tus vídeos saludos desde Cancún México
i have the same problem as you my opinion everthing is on my mind , i been follow EDWARD ART VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE AND MAKE SENSE TO ME IS BEEN HELPFULL dont gorget everthing is on your mid . SALUDOS FROM NEW YORK CITY.
I will check out the channel. Thanks. 🙂
Good story/experience. Brings me flashbacks. From 1993 when i was 17 yrs old!! 😂
Thanks for watching! 😊
Wow! What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing with us. To this day, that book is still my favorite. It means so much to me. It was the answer to your prayers, but it might have answered my prayers too. I was in a really bad mental state at the time when I read it, and it was about the same time I met my husband. Our story has some things in common with Andrew and Camryn’s story, and somehow I knew he was the right person. It might seem crazy, but your book gave me hope. About getting better and about marrying my husband. We are still married, almost 10 years later. He helped me overcome depression and other mental issues. I’m sorry for the long comment, but I really felt like sharing this with you after watching the video. So, thank you ❤
Wow thank you for letting me know! It means a lot to me that my book could help you. 😊 I’m so happy that it made an impact on your life. ❤️
Amazing testimony, thank you for sharing!
You're very welcome! Thank you for watching. 😃
That was the scariest story I've ever heard. Left me shaking. Father God protected you throughout your life. Thank you Father 🙏🙌
Yes, He has definitely. Praise the Lord! 🙏
