Why are people claiming he's stolen Valor? Alot of military and a few firearms forums about him being stolen Valor.... I figured if that's even remotely true I would think he would have been called out by now.

[@papateezy7441]

@@TerminalM193 idk him and my opinions don’t mean Jack.. but probably because he’s faith driven and doesn’t preach so much war stories ? 🤷🏻‍♂️ seems a good man to me . And maybe they are just internet trolls

[@luked.4131]

​@@papateezy7441Also, there's so many details that he says he doesn't remember, and that's kinda weird to me as an Army veteran. I've kinda had that feeling too with him feeling like he's lying, but, can't know for sure and throwing accusations around like that is trash unless there's been indisputable evidence

This week, my husband has come home from work everyday with one earbud in. First thing after the greeting is a smile and, “Have you listened to Lovell yet?” He knows I’m a big fan! We are both keeping up this week and loving it! Also, weighing in as a female, what John said about the ideas of feminism are spot on. That was a stumbling block in my marriage, too (also now in the 17th year). I was blind to it. Praise God my husband and I came to Jesus in the 5th year, or we wouldn’t have made it! Jesus really is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Huge fan of both Shawn Ryan and John Lovell from the WPS. I have had the pleasure of personally training with John Lovell many times and he is as real as they come. What you see is what you get. Thank both of you guys for your service in the past and for continuing to serve this great country of ours...🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@jayteefishing1543]

I thought this was supposed to be a 3 part series! You mean we get a 4th??? I’m loving this. By far my favorite guest and interview. John is so wise. That man has seriously changed the way I live my life. He’s shown me what I’ve been doing wrong. Even though it wasn’t much and it wasn’t too big of a deal. He’s taught me how to treat my bride and he’s shown me how to be that father that’s so well balanced. Awesome interview!!

[@jimriedesel7975]

Thank you Shawn for having Mr. Lovell on your show... he is spot on in everything he says about Jesus and what the bible says about relationships. I know this because i did the same thing when i was saved and studied the Word of God... I let go of my pride and humbled myself as i put God first and in doing so i saved my marraige and everything in my life is flourishing. Its great to hear all the information about his life on your platform so hopefully millions of others can do the same and live their life for Jesus.

[@Melody-st4df]

This was one of the most wise, insightful and profound conversations I've ever had the privilege to listen to.

[@boromirofmiddleearth557]

Seeing our Brother In Christ, John on this platform is a true blessing. Have followed John on WPS for years. Haven't heard his entire story in one cogent well shot/produced interview. Thank you Sean. God bless you brother! This is real meat and potatoes stuff! My younger brother spent some time in the Carolinas in the Marines in the early mid 90s. Non war time so Marines fighting Army Rangers in bars in Eastern Carloina was a weekend intramural sport.

[@leechambers2295]

I spent 8 years in regiment, I did 5 deployments myself. I have to say John is spot on with his experience. So many guys experience exactly what he has experienced. I have been through almost the exact same things he has talked about, from good to terrible leadership in battalion and becoming the effective leader I should be to dealing with another alpha personality in my wife. Shawn is doing such a great thing on this channel. I am so great full for this channel and what he does here. Unfortunately men in the special operations community don’t speak to each other enough or at all about the struggles we face.

I identify with Shawn the most which is why he’s my favorite. But I desire to add more of johns traits to my life. Been following John way longer. Was one of the first to pay for his app. I’m so glad these two got together. I think Shawn might see some good in his content for his life too.

[@stealingtomorrowband]

I connected with what you guys were talking about loss. I found my dad dead almost 4 years ago from a massive heart attack.. it was like 6am by 9am i was headed to work to pour concrete for a bigass garage. A bunch of people were mad at me and said things like you should've stayed home with your family and your mom etc.etc. and my inly response was my father would kickass my ass if i skipped worked because i have a family to take care of.... Sometimes it is hard to let go of finding him sometimes it is easier .. sometimes it is overwhelming... But i just keep putting my best foot forward... Thansk for your content SRS good day sir!!!!

[@dylanreithel6212]

Shawn said “you know you’re a good leader at that point?” And John responded “that’s when I know they have my back.” That’s the sign of a good leader. He didn’t even take the recognition for being a good leader, he acknowledged his boys. Hats off, that’s a good leader.

[@StrollinSodaPops]

Gosh dang, this is an incredible interview. John says your followers will be rolling their eyes at his asserting that the foundation of a strong marriage is Christ, but I’m over here shouting AMEN! He’s giving treasured truths here and I’m so glad you gave him the time to really flesh out his thoughts. My favorite interview yet that I’ve seen on your channel, what a wonderful opportunity for you both. I know you said you are new to the faith, Shawn- what a fantastic brother to speak with and to encourage you in your walk with the Lord.

My marriage path was almost exactly like Johns. Marriage is having a best friend FOREVER ❤

[@wes11bravo]

You chose wisely, Rick. I chose less wisely and am enduring the tribulations of that decision. We have a daughter, and I made a vow, so I am making the best of it. In no way am I perfect, and don't misunderstand the assertion I made about my situation as helpless whining. There is something to be said for being confident in the choice made with whom you will make a family. No point in making what is inevitably a challenge even more difficult!

[@bryanduchane2371]

Would love to have a family with Church being a foundation if our parenting and marriage. May never have that opportunity, but believe it would be a very happy life?!!

[@T.F.Hunter]

2nd Batt guy here. About same time frame as Lovell, different company. Love both yall brothers and all the content and work you do. I love how you talked about marriage, loss and healing. Had very similar struggles and ended up traveling the same road to God, but not till after OIF1. But after getting out and trying to figure out how not to be a brash callous natured warrior to humble, loving serving husband took very intentional devotion and work. I had to learn to use my strengths to build up people weaker than me than to use my strengths to tear people down. I believe since we are all born into sin the default is we are aligned to be critical in our language, tone and approach. Especially A-types. We have to learn, practice and teach to not do what is natural and easy. But since I over came those obstacles, with help from other great men before me, i have 12 year marriage and still growing with 2 great boys with a 3rd one in the making. I have a family of my own. Would have never had any of that if I never changed who I was before.

[@jablank3180]

I was in the 62nd MED BDE @ Lewis, 2007-10. I was in the same squad w/ Chris Gator Gathercole’s fiancé. I got to Lewis in Dec 07, & for the first 2 months I thought he was just in a different Co or detachment who’s barracks was full so he lived in ours. It wasn’t until he showed up at our company AO in uniform to go get lunch with his fiancé that I found out he was 2nd/75th. Such a down to earth, always positive, no ego solid dude. God bless the dead..

I rarely comment on shows BUT this one is a superb episode and indeed series. A long time ago I too was a Ranger qualified squad leader in the Infantry and was and am a devout Christian who loves the Lord. This brought back a ton of memories- I heard leadership lessons and rules I had implemented in my own squad. I cringed at hearing John’s lack of social awareness after being a meat eater because I still suffer from this “malady!” I too started marriage in the same way. Thank you John and Shawn! Keep speaking the truth, exposing the rot, and most importantly loving Jesus!🙌🏻🙏💪🏻#coramdeo #RLTW 12-92

My Ranger Drill Srgt. That is why we respect and loved him so much. We knew if we messed up. It was like hey guys your are getting rusty and need a little coat of oil. So if he was down doing push ups with us, it was because thats what we do, now when he would smoke us he would just speak calmly and let us know we let him down. That hit us all in the heart, just to know we let him down. All the other DS's would scream and stuff. Not him he would just talk.

"Everyone is evil but Jesus." is pure wisdom, gentlemen (and gentleladies). I know that view has changed my life for the better. It fuels me to share Him, not hate others. (Because it's ALL of us in that boat.) Loving this series. Thank you.

[@bcmchozeh]

Haha, The Lamb is the highest laid down lover. He serves us with His whole Heart. He is the example.

[@robertdiggins7578]

I can appreciate the wisdom and sentiment in that perspective. I'm also on a mission, in general, to expose the fact that we have been bathed in false dichotomies, as a way to keep us fighting each other. The reductive thinking that literally slows down our abilities to critically think makes us so much more vulnerable to gaslighting/hypnotic group-think, which creates a "Crabs in a bucket" mentality, that causes parrots and whips in the public to keep each other in line, and, as we can see more and more, algorithmically generated ideological bubbles that make it even more difficult to be exposed to what the "other public" is exposed to. The result is divide and conquer. The MSM takes dictation from the government officials who give them prized access, as well as the embedded "State Department" employees who were given an explicit "legal" green light to use propaganda domestically) and top down (owners and board members of giant media and social media conglomerates who created an organization called the Trusted News Initiative (TNI). I know this sounds a little convoluted, but all we need to do is look at the example of D vs R/L vs R/Blue vs Red, which are all false choices between Individualism and Collectivism, which are interdependent, not mutually exclusive. The Preamble has The Commons and The Bill of Rights protects individual freedoms. The Constitution correctly points out that we can't have one without the other. We can't imagine experiencing the individual freedoms, while also imagining a privatized Justice System (this has actually been happening, with private, for profit prisons and contracts with minimum occupancy clauses. There have already been multiple judges caught getting kickbacks for handing out extra harsh sentences - even for minors.) It's my understanding that our job is to balance these ideas, as our society develops. It's eternal vigilance in an emergent context. We also definitely need to clean our own house first, concerning the government, because the pirates and profiteers who hijacked and captured our government/public institutions and agencies made sure that we blame "the government", even though it is our best tool with which we can resist tyranny. As we know from "the gun debate", another false dichotomy, tools don't kill people. The same goes for Government, when we realize it's a tool. Ok, sorry this was long. Maybe there is a dichotomy between Jesus and the rest of us. But, maybe he was trying to tell us there isn't. I see authoritarianism in more and more places and at deeper and deeper levels of our society. I see false choices and divide and conquer as the main mechanism, and fear as the main driver. Original Sin is at the heart of pretty much every societal sickness. The pirates have adopted this strategy, because it's impossible to argue against. Thanks for your consideration and any feedback. 🙏

[@yahusrevus]

The term "PsyOp" comes to mind. "Politics" anymore is basically studio wrestling. For those of us who remember Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant, for example, the fight was always hyped in such a manner as to make fans choose a side and it always sounded epic in scope. However, shortly after the (fake) match(es), those two would be in a limousine on their way to a steak dinner together at the nicest restaurant in town. Americans, in particular, definitely seem to be being "herded" in much the same way by people who claim to hate each other publicly while being chummy behind closed doors. (Even the fact that some folks are realizing this and withdrawing is a "win" in terms of impacting behavior.) This actually makes me see faith in Christ all the more important. I still vote, for example, because God knows... not because of anything to do with the "sides" involved. If one candidate supports the infanticide known as abortion, for example, it's quite clear where God stands on the issue and thus where I must stand. What's going on in the world actually has no bearing. God is the same today as He was yesterday and will be the same tomorrow as well. As long as He is always one's focus, the rest simply fades no matter how overtly obnoxious some try to make it. Take heart and have a great day.

I myself was in a very dark place, survivors guilt and large amounts of anger were a daily struggle for me…but after listening to John speak about faith and being a better father and husband, and Sean telling his stories about how his psychedelic journey helped him pushed me into doing the same thing. And it has changed my, and my family’s lives in such a profound way that I can’t believe the changes over the last two years. You both are saints and I just wanted to say thank you both for helping people like myself without even meeting in person. Both of you are a godsend to a lot of us.

[@psychedguitar2716]

As a civilian, the chapter on reintegrating into civilian life really resonated with me. I had a brutal childhood. I grew up in the slums of chicago. I had a really bad tbi, I have many broken bones, I have auditory triggers from traumatic events in childhood. I was homeless for one year in chicago trying to survive the brutal winter in 2017 and then trying to survive the gangs and tweaker on the street in the summer. I finally made it out and managed to get an apartment in denver. I thought I was mentally okay but I ended up in a toxic relationship with a bad person at 21 and I had my daughter with this person. She has now been arrested for physical abuse to our daughter. I'm now a single dad in colorado just me and my daughter at 25 and it's just very hard to put that past behind me and it's even harder to meet people I resonate with to build a new brother hood. Growing up in chicago in the harsh way I did makes me carry myself differently and I can be very harsh like a sledge hammer. I resonate with service members more than anyone else because I don't know anyone else who has lived through hell they way I have. Thank you John and Shawn for sharing this.

[@tusharin1984]

“Reservoirs of patience I didn’t know I had” no truer words were ever spoken from a husbands point of view John 😂😂😂 I felt that statement

[@SavageConversations]

I can't even begin to explain that what was said about trying to become civilian around minute 43 is so much of what I went through. The Sean Ryan Show is literally therapy for us operational/deployed veterans. I'm really glad the conversation between these two leaders is not just an actual thing we just heard about but is documented in this fashion. Semper Paratus

[@carrow2250]

Been married 20 years. Best advice is work as a team, don’t get emotional when a discussion comes up, and don’t try and make the other the loser in an argument. You’re a team, you make your teammate the loser, they’re going to find another teammate. No social media, no opposite sex friends, no girls night out, and most importantly; follow Christ.

Something important to help deal with loss is to talk to that person about it before. What do they want when they pass, what do they want you to do when they pass, how can we honor them in a positive light, if there was something they wanted the world to hear what would it be. Things along those lines I think can help a lot.

Between 50:00 And 55 :00 .... I think you explain why you respect fire fighters the way you do........that 5min segment sums up how we are taught and our ethos. This whole series is Outstanding!!

John, I can’t tell you how helpful the relation relationship talk was. Beautifully said.

[@jasonbajis4878]

Dang it, John! Your narration of your first two years of marriage is making me feel called out... in the best way. Well, at least I know some things I need to work on now. For real though, thank you both for being so real. Sean, I just found your podcast a couple weeks ago, and it's already been so helpful for me. Keep it up!

Hope you have had some positive marriage progress

Great multi part format. John always letting the Spirit speak through him giving HOPE all the time.

[@Furrygoatfeet]

Really profound words from this amazing man. Absolutely loved this episode.

This was a another great interview. John had great answers, great advice, and great stories. He seems like a great, honest guy. And i don't think he said a cuss word throughout the entire interview.

Many are called, few are chosen. Thank you JESUS, we needed a John Lovell on the team, and we who are believers…. Are in awe and excitement as we are watching The LORD call and change Shawn! GodBless both of you men! Praise JESUS baby!

7:50 is a powerful moment between you to and so right. Thank you both so much.

I have never related more about marriage than listening to John's first few years. I now understand what needs to be done. Thank you John
