I am a grandmother, sitting here - just doing my filing, listening to you both discussing your views and experiences in your relationship with one another and with the Lord. I commend you for being willing to be open, sharing with others. This type of conversation is so necessary, and unfortunately, not spoken of enough in the Christian community. GOOD JOB - keep up the good work. ❤❤❤

I know that this is done months ago. My son Charles has cancer. He is my miracle baby. He is a man now. But he is going thru a lot and I need you guys to pray for him. I'm going thru getting a medical leave from work beside his cancer he has a blood clot in his neck. I know you guys will never see this text. But I pray that others will and keep us in your prayers.. I love the Lord and I now that in His wisdom and grace He will heal us both my son Charles and me Amarilys.The song you sing Graves to Gardens is what keeps me going because He's the only one.

I found this video scrolling last night and watched it through. Unusual for me to check comments but yours was at the top Amaryllis. I pray that you and your son are in a much better place now. I pray that the good grace of God Almighty eased your sons medical burdens and that you find peace in your heart with whatever the outcome is. May the Lord Jesus bring you comfort in abundance and know that others are praying for you. God bless you and your family ❤

In our couple mentoring ministry, we define true intimacy as, “Being fully known, fully loved and fully committed to each other, all under the blessing of God.”

I’m 26 and I’ve been single most of my life, to be honest I’m tired of waiting, esp when I go on Facebook and see a new engagement every day and have my friends/family constantly ask about it. But I really want to be with a guy that God has called me to be with. I’d rather wait a long time for the right kind of guy than settle for someone that doesn’t follow and trust God. Thank you guys for this video it’s really encouraged me to keep in faith for him.

Trust me, the worst thing is marrying a person you have the tiniest bit of doubt about marrying just because everyone else is marrying around you. I made that mistake 30 years ago and especially the last 10 years have been torture. Marry for love only even if you're 40 or 60 or 80....

[@caitlynbaldo5538]

As a military spouse (18 years) I would say that God has given grace in impossible seasons, when there were no people, where I couldn’t manage my environment and bring support in, God’s grace has been overflowing and sufficient. There were seasons that I couldn’t see it, but I look back and see He was enough.

Bought our tickets to the 5/5 closing show of TOTR in January. We agreed to sacrifice for the floor tickets because your music was used by God in mighty ways throughout 2023, including a miracle 10/17/23. God literally slowed me down through low blood pressure Feb-April 2024...healing me in time to fly to Charleston. Hearing you sing Almond Eyes here is beautiful timing, clearly His. God bless you! Praying you and your beautiful family are able to slow down TOGETHER with GOD before the next tour.

[@makennafarmer9590]

I never grew up in a faith centered family (I was raised by unbelievers), but I devoted my whole life to Christ in middle school, I let Him become King of my heart, but my parents didn’t let me get baptized because of their unbelief. I pray for them each day. Eventually they allowed me to get baptized (when I was 16 years old YAY JESUS), and they even attended church a few times. I love their baby steps in faith it is so so so beautiful to see them slowly turn to Jesus. However, their marriage and our family was/is not Christ centered, so I turn to married couples of all ages who are in my church (such as the next gen pastor and his wife, and a freshly married couple in their 20s) that help show me what a Christ centered relationship/family truly is. My hope is always in Jesus. He will not let darkness have the final say. He will not let sin have the final say. He has full authority, say, and the center of all of my relationships. I’m so thankful for couples like you who give people like me real advice and help prepare me for a continued Christ centered future. It’s couples like you that rewrote the definition of marriage and family. Y’all are a blessing to my life. Thank you.

[@jeanette7798]

Wow Makenna you’re testimony is such a blessing. Even though your family didn’t agree you stuck by and held onto Jesus. That’s powerful! God bless you for sharing 💜💜

One thing I’ve learned: it’s important to establish boundaries while you’re alone (pre-dating), because when you’re in a relationship the decision can become the other person’s rather than your own, and can be based on your feelings in the moment.

Don’t watch any horror movies or movies that have something that will open our mind to do something that Jesus wouldn’t like we are here to serve him and nobody else.

[@hala7278]

Don't give up or lose hope because of the resistance. Remain in your covenant, don't disengage. Calling it quits will not solve the issues, Holy Spirit is there to guide you. Remember, when you said "I DO, " what you were really saying was "There's no one I'd want to do issues of life with than you!" Clothe yourself in humility and know that both of you will come out of this season more sanctified, looking more like JESUS, if you don't throw in the towel! Trust me, the things we want to turn our faces from are actually there to stretch, bend, and mold us! Don't let the enemy have his way by giving in! Frustrate the enemy by doing exactly the opposite of what your flesh wants to. Operate from God's sense, not human sense! There is no way the enemy can break the covenant you made before God and men unless you cooperate with the devil. Love your wife like you love yourself. LOVE YOUR WIFE AS GOD LOVES YOU. Romans 5:8! God will restore your marriage, work with God!

[@sethcooper425]

If God can heal the sins of this world he can heal y'all's marriage. Put him first in everything and take all of your care and throw it at the foot of the cross. Have faith in what he did for you not what you have done. The fight we have to fight is the fight of faith! The rest of the battle has already been won at the cross!!

I discovered you the night my dad passed away on Christmas eve 2020. I heard your song "Gratitude" and as the lyrics began to play I collapsed to the floor. My lifeline with him began to flash before my eyes and I realized the man of God that he really was. My hands were lifted and in my agony I was flooded with gratitude to our King for granting me such an honorable man as my earthly father. I played it at his memorial service and still can't hear it without being brought to tears. But I've listened to most of your music since and it is so much more than music to me. It literally brings forth a spiritual encounter with our Father every time I listen. Your relationship with the Lord and your love for Jesus is so evident and it flows from you into the hearts of those who listen. It takes me to my deepest place of worship every time I hear your music, your lyrics, your voice. I just want to say thank you for sharing the beauty of your gift and spiritual journey and relationship with Christ with us. You have no idea just how many hearts and lives He's touched through you. Much love to you and yours. And you and your beautiful wife have great marriage boundaries, I love your respect for one another. It's refreshing to see young people doing the right thing and honoring God in their marriage and family life. You two are just awesome!!!!

A Friend of mine's husband (ex now) would make her go to strip bars and she hated it ..she would rebel when she would be made to be out drinking out in the bars at these places she would just go crazy it wasn't her thing and she didn't want to be there. It ended up when they got in a huge fight, walked out and when they got in the car he was being rough with her and she bit him and he beat her and beat her and now she's paralyzed on one side. That is a dramatic story, but it's a true story. Do not participate with p*** it's going to take him down a depraved road and that lifestyle takes all the wholesomeness in life out the window, when you start watching p*** get ready to get burned...Sex is to be intimate and pure and between a husband and his wife.

It's true the wife keeps the home fires burning when Brandon comes home from being on the road, if he didn't have a warm inviting home and his wife Brittany, that loves him, children who adore him he would just stay out on the road and drink himself slowly to death or get on drugs and be a mess. Homemaking is very vital in the plan of the family to bring stability which God authored when he said let a man leave his mother and father and cling unto his wife, in which cling means chase after. He also said to multiply and that's where the children come in and mothers be proud that you're chosen to raise these little ones.. fathers be sure that you are in lending a helping hand at all times and if you're gone lengthy hours, then you have some making up to do when you get home, but a smile a hug and a kiss goes a long way.

Yikes. The encouragement of pandering to the man…is nauseating. That can create undue stress on some wives, who are already likely putting their needs last as it is. So, wives should get rid of the evidence of how the real day goes? So, if she ever shares how hard it is, he’s even less likely to believe it…when he sees a “peaceful” house as his perspective upon coming home? This type of codependent encouraging, is toxic. Elevating one person so much, and pressuring wives to be a certain way…makes me wonder deeply about your narratives, your conditioning, your true understanding of women “Cheryl”.

It is refreshing however it is not realistic for the average woman. I really need for people to stop putting women that do that on a pedestal. It makes the rest of the female race feel inadequate & it’s just not true. House clean or not, a mother is still a mother. Your children are not going to remember how nice the living room looked, they will remember whether or not you were present. This is why I think your bedroom needs to be clean always. Your safe haven. Just for peace & relaxation 😴🥰😌.

I am so thankful for young couples in ministry that understand marriage and family are first place. That's the way God ordained it and Brandon and Britney your lives epitomize the heart of the Father for marriages. Thank you for your authenticity. Mothers have such a huge responsibility and God has graced you as a Proverbs 31 woman, because the world is trying to steal the souls of our children.

I am from South Africa and I am a grandmother. I listen to all your songs Brandon even if I am a grandmother 😊 This talk truly touched me and I pray that God will bless and protect your and Brittany's marriage. There is such an anointing on your worship songs. May God use you mightily, especially with the young people in America they need Jesus. Blessings 🙏

I am an older woman, unmarried now...having been married twice before. I love how very real you both are! Speaking about the "real" things that exist in relationships/marriage, ALL of it! Real feelings...raw emotions, growing together, changing together. You guys are everybody! Keep sharing...communication is KEY! Boundaries are needed, first in communication which will lead into the other areas. Enjoy each other! Enjoy family.

[@lupetorres3899]

I'm dating and God keeps blocking the sex when we are together. I love the realness!!

[@JessNell8]

God cover my sister and keep her...in Jesus name. 🙏🏻

[@JerryHoffmanJr]

I just had a chance to watch your video. I’ve been married for 27 years. Both points of view are right on. Successful marriage is based on a relationship with God through Jesus and a daily path of communication between husband and wife that is always changing. Even being married for all these years I still learn new things about and from my spouse. Great job guys. Be super blessed.

[@lanceaguirre4528]

Your marriage is lifted in prayer consistently with ours. We will celebrate 45 years of marriage this July 28th 2023 This was powerful, thank you❤

[@DietCherryCait]

Happy anniversary 🤍

[@hope.n.wilson]

Brandon is amazing on the worship stage, now having a front seat in his real life makes him so relatable and more admirable as a worship leader. Britney is sweet and awesome too, you two are truly blessed.

[@godandgardening]

I love that you are bold enough to talk about boundaries in marriage , especially what you watch

[@joydeboyde]

Ask the Lord to help you see your spouse ‘through His eyes.’

[@mayra7970]

I pray for a relationship like this❤️ I love the way you both are with each other. I’m preparing myself emotionally and mentally for my husband. First building my relationship with God of course! Thank you all for sharing your life with us! I’m studying this relationship to know how a relationship built with God looks like.

[@hopecoutino7546]

😢 So beautiful. You two are beautiful! I have been listening to you for a few months now. I pray you have a wonderful life together! I lost my husband 10 years ago. We had a great marriage!

[@alfredospizzacafe]

Brandon and Brittany, thank you so much for this raw and honest Christ centered conversation. My girlfriend and I were so blessed by your discussion. We would love to see you both do another Real Talk when you aren't chasing the kiddos around. :) Thanks again! God Bless!

What a beautiful Couple you two are!! ❤ Thank you for sharing your hearts! Such "Down to Earth" you guys are! Such great discussions!! 🙏 God Bless you!!

[@floresreil22]

I've been married for 21 years... And this reminds me what I was feeling after I had my 1st baby. So many mix emotions and not opening up about it. Having children does change a marriage. This is a great video for first time young married couples. Thank you for sharing.

[@SrvntoftheMostHigh]

Thank you for the boldness to speak against pornography. It's such a prevelant addiction and it should not be left as a secret sin

[@luisaoviedo9182]

Praying for someone like Brandon, a God Fearing Man 🥰😇🙏🏻🙌🏻 God bless your beautiful family. Preach on ♥️

[@sherrywilliams6169]

I just watched this and loved it. You are both incredible. I am 61 years old and have been widowed for 2 1/2 years (40 years of marriage). I was crying when you were praying for us. You touched several points that apply to my life. About a year ago I reconnected with a good friend on social media from when we were teenagers. We talked a lot and I asked him what kind of music he likes. He responded Christian music, which almost scared me away. I was totally still stuck on '80's hard rock. He sent me a few videos over time and I thought, uh it's okay. One morning I had a text from him saying that God had put it on his heart to send me this song. It was you singing "Gratitude." I had just gotten up and had a cough. The first time I listened to it I thought "did he say you've got a lion in your lungs? 😂 More like a sick kitten." I played it again and the 3rd time was singing along (and not coughing). That song got me addicted to Christian music. I kept playing other songs of yours on U-tube and loved them all. Then I clicked on a recommended song by Phil Wickham. I love his music too. I slowly branched out finding more artists that I like. But "Gratitude" is still my favorite and will always be special to me. I was really disappointed that I couldn't attend the concert a few months ago in New Orleans. For now I will keep enjoying my new "addiction" via utube. Thank you and God Bless you and your family.

[@justisk9781]

THANK YOU GOD for this!!!!!🥰 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ THANK YOU Lake Fam for sharing! May GOD bless you & your FAM soooooo ABUNDANTLY for your faithfulness & LOVEEEEEE!!!! ❤️❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️❤️

[@josephinekoehn7216]

Loved your open true talk about you relationship and your lives. These are great basics for marriage, after 35 years I’ve learned these basics won’t change and will need reinforcement continually. Y’all are awesome and crushing it. Thanks for being an open book to your generation.😊

[@sharonthomas9851]

God Bless your family , I have been married for 43 years. I was 17 and my husband was 19. I love that you both are being real and honest, the good and the bad. With your honesty and representing Jesus, expect the enemy, he is cunning, recognize him and don’t let him come between your marriage.

[@pamelamubuta]

Thanks for the real talk.

[@randysem7848]

Your guy's marriage and family life is such an inspiration. You're a true vessel for God Big Brother B and I am truly grateful to find your music cause it has changed my life in so many ways. Went from Buddhism to a 1st generation christian. And with your songs it brought me closer to God . Thanks homie P.s I'll be seeing you Denver Colorado March 24. And it'll be my first Christian concert. I'm ready to get hyped and cry the same time lol

[@amberbright6573]

Didn't plan on watching the whole vid but you two kept it so authentic, I chose the stay. Thank you. Thank you from a woman who's been through a marriage that didn't last. God told me he wouldn't let my experience go to waste. Open, real talks like these are fun and bring healing. Insert Office quote 🙃

[@bluebronx2000]

Thank you so much for this. So many issues were uprooted for me while I was listening. I hadn't realized I had been holding onto sexual trauma from nearly 20 years ago. I had been forgiving the person over and over, but today... today it broke. I also realized that it was what was keeping me from trusting Jesus completely, and I'm still crying it out.

[@all4hymn_stephschwartz]

I recently watched Brandon being interviewed and then came across this. You guys are the best! I just love you guys so much and your openness and honesty. God bless you beautiful people! ❤

[@TheHisrose4]

That song is SOOOOO beautiful!! What a beautiful voice you have!!
