So glad Christian men are finally getting time on secular podcasts & influencing others 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@Journey2sanctification]

Agreed🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@Alpha_apex]

Even though i know this is going to come off as an attack, just know its not. But i want to say it direct.....are you also under the comments of the women podcasts selling their bodies and souls requesting for better female representation? Because the women love to come to male sections telling men they need more men like this. But i rarely see women holding other women accountable for the disgusting behavior they are displaying today.

[@monicaallmond2606]

Amen!

[@hubertreediii9306]

I’m not more pro black than I am pro God. The realest statement!!!! Much respect to Dee-1 !!!!

​@@politicsreligionshowditto. I recently had this conversation with a friend who ironically has an M.Div. Even she couldn't fathom the idea of being a Christian first. She looked at me like having a biblical worldview is a foreign concept!

Yes!!!!! Come on for the believers!!! So many people think we “boring” BUT look how the Lord is using them all to impart knowledge and wisdom! All while still allowing everyone to be themselves and still be honest about the Word and how you can apply it practically. I’m so happy!!!

[@shondasingletary6584]

Right I’m definitely here for it ❤❤❤

That part…… i hope it opens people’s eyes to see Jesus for Him and not for what people say. For anyone who sees this, pease look into who Jesus is and not continue to go off of hear say. God is Good. 🤲🏾

[@meenameena-dd2zy]

I noticed that too ( no complaints, I love it).

[@kevobuilds]

Dee-1 keeps it so real. Not pressuring anyone to think a certain way.. just a super solid, well thought out dude. This was a dope convo.

[@melodieb19]

When you have no relationship with God, not only do you lack accountability, but it causes you to become lawless!!!! We need a part 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 with D1!!!!

[@BriMyselfandGod]

As a young Black Christian woman this interview convicted me to always put glorifying God first even if it goes against the culture, which has been hard for me. Also spoke to some relational issues relevant to me. Thank you Dee 1 for dropping wisdom!

[@KKBlessed85]

I feel the same way. I was like I know who put this video on for me because it just came up. Be Blessed 🙏🏿

The lighter one- not sure of his name (with the thick beard) is definitely a thinker and I can see how the conversations cause him to do deep reflection. Hats off to both of these young Men! When they do finally marry and settle down they are going to be WONDERFUL husband's and fathers.

[@casanova7489]

Loved this discussion! When the KeKe Palmer thing was discussed and her boyfriend's actions were passive-aggressive, it was described as "real feminine". I think it's important that we stop claiming negative actions/traits over womanhood. As a woman, being passive-aggressive is not a part of my feminity. Nor should it be apart of any woman's feminity. Words have meaning.

[@ctmckin]

👏🏽👏🏽

[@Journey2sanctification]

🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾this is part of why some men are afraid to be transparent. I dislike all of the things, even how they have to eat certain things a certain way. Our culture needs an entire face lift spiritually! I stand with you on this!!!!

[@drea0795]

Exactly!! 👏🏾👏🏾 It’s childish/immature, NOT feminine. Thank you for that correction. 🙏🏾

[@DetroitHimawari]

I hear you but feminine does not equal woman and vice verse. Femininity is a dominant characteristic of a woman in most cases but she will also express masculinity. It is feminine to be passive aggressive. It is masculine to be overtly aggressive. Either way, it wouldn’t be a good trait for a woman to be aggressive in either form.

[@zerospecs2331]

I really love how you articulated this so well, because I agree. The moment he said it was feminine- my face: 🤨🧐🤨. And if anything, it felt like a backhanded insult towards the boyfriend, similar to “You throw like a girl”- which is then, still an insult towards women in turn. He could have said it was passive aggressive- and left it at that. Like you said, passive-aggressive is not something I embrace in my behavior, character, or energy. And I didn’t like how he classified it as that.

[@legacyfamily1793]

Great interview. I’m a Christian who’s been divorced and currently engaged. My outlook on marriage and purpose is so different now. Dee1 articulated my faith and even addressed my concerns. Loved this!!

[@dreya9667]

[@Ginger_Spicy_Candor]

an entire song from christian rapper Lacy B actually talked about this being a sin problem, great song if you can find it

[@patricewilliams2998]

That casual dating description you gave is what I've explained to my kids as "falling in love," it's not good at all because there are no intentions and you're living through how you feel from moment to moment. Love has to be very intentional.

[@amandaharris6089]

Thank you for this discussion because this is what I've been saying for years. I have been single for 10 years and am a woman of God. I've been say8ng for years that to submit to an ungodly man would be me turning away from Jesus and I can't. I will sit here and wait on the Lord ❤❤ God bless you Dee!

[@ikeyangel]

Wow I went through the same thing with the synergy and spirituality during a courting. Plenty of things in common however he wasn’t being led by Gods direction which made me feel completely unsafe🙏🏾 I’ve experienced so much spiritual warfare in relationships that at this point it’s a 50/50 chance I’m not willing to take🙌🏾🙏🏾 and after I stated that MUCH MORE was revealed. I was just thankful for discernment and a strong mind at that point 🙏🏾

Dee1 just preached a whole sermon. I enjoyed this!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@shann8230]

Today this podcast made me experience what I can only describe as a miracle/sign from God. My boyfriend and I started dating last November we've been together about 11 months but we have been doing long distance (UK to Canada) for the past 4ish months, obviously that comes with its challenges. We have been managing and I would say our relationship is in a good place, we were on the phone this morning and I was telling him about a journal entry I wrote on Feb 7 2023 titled 'trust in God' I read the entry to him because it was about how I felt a push to move to the UK from God which was scary given me and my boyfriend had just started dating, I wrote down that I was scared but I was going to 'live by faith'. I read the whole entry out to my boyfriend on the phone this morning, we had a convo about it and talked about how we are supposed to be together and then went about our days. I decide to turn on this podcast as I had seen Dee-1 on The Basement podcast and like his vibe and wanted to hear more, I had never listened to Hardly Initiated before. As I am listening to this podcast while I work, it gets to 29:00 and Tysean says or 'Shanice and Brandon' I drop everything I'm doing .... my name is Shanice and my boyfriend's name is Brandon, I can't help but think that was a sign from God I have been smiling ever since :) thankful for this podcast and for Dee-1 as a guest!!

Man, I love this!!!!! There's something about hearing it from a Godly man that hits different than hearing it from a woman. In my personal experience I grew up seeing the women and the women ONLY in my family study the Word, pray, go to church etc. It feels great seeing men worship and serve God openly, even better is seeing them share the gospel BOLDLY!!!!!

[@BearingMySeoul]

Same. I didn't listen to the whole thing but did they ever define a "traditional" man other than him being monogamous? Also, Dee's definition of "leading" in that he has to be "looked up to" is a bit immature. I'm at least a decade older than him so I've SEEN some things and life is LONG. When you're all up in each other's lives, you're going to see the less than honorable aspects of one another. You're going to see the weaknesses and you need to RESPECT one another. Respect is in spite of the other person's weakenesses.

[@daphenernorwood]

And I have to be 💯I wasn’t going to watch this one based on how he looks.

Dee-1 just made a new fan. I loved what he had to say, and his perspective…..even if I don’t agree with everything he says….. I like the conversation being had so Thank You again for amazing content and introducing me to new teachers 💗.

[@SkkyyC]

It’s been 10yrs now since I decided to work on my healing and then be intentional when I’m ready. I am still single and that is what I am. No casual nothing because my focus is on God. I thank God for also allowing me to get over this narrative that you have to have sex and going 10yrs without is a problem. People say “girl, you look sane and pretty but are not having sex, then you must be trying to control a man?” How that computes, I really don’t understand. I just wish people would stop mocking people that choose celibacy. We don’t say we’re better than others, we just don’t want to go thru the ungodly motion that most people already in it are not even happy or healed.

[@CarrieFinley-g1m]

This!!!! I want to be able to focus on a meaningful relationship, sex clouds judgment and can wait! I’m meeting men of the church that feel like I’m trying to control the relationship and that’s not the case. I just want a REAL relationship.

Loved this episode. I love listening to him speak. Dee is so intellectual, so well spoken and so mature. He made me re-evaluate my walk with God and truly want to continue to grow in my righteousness. I know I will be the most gorgeous version of myself when I let go of my rebellion towards God.
