The saying that one act of kindness is returned 5, 10, 20 times over holds truth. Find someone to be nice to-today and everyday. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Praise Jesus! What an AMAZING blessing! If where you stayed was mind blowing, can you imagine what our Lord has prepared for us? Tithing is such a wonderful blessing and those who live it out show our Savior how much we appreciate Him and desire to give Him our first and our best! My hubby and I have a home church and minister to the homeless. We have special gifts for them tomorrow! We are looking forward to giving in Jesus Name to those who are hurting and lonely. Continued blessing on you Nate and Sutton!

What an unexpected and beautiful blessing for your family! Thank you for such an uplifting video this morning. I have 35 family members coming for an early Christmas meal today. Our house is small and it will be crowded, but we will treasure the memories. The last year has been difficult for our family, but God is good still and we are so thankful.

In my opinion, it is a great privilege to tithe, to give to God my first fruits, which He gave to me in the first place. I have been so poor that I was unable to tithe, but with work and God’s provision, I am able to tithe now. He has also blessed me with enough to give in small ways. But even if you can’t tithe because you are struggling to just put food on your table, you can give in other ways. Your time and your prayers are 2 major ways to give.

🙏 Thank you for sharing. It brought back really great memories. My grandparents had 2 apartments at the yacht club right on the ocean in Venice. They were a quarter mile north of the jetties. We spent many Christmas’s there with the cousins. The memories are bringing tears to my eyes, as my parents and grandparents are with the Lord now. We found thousands of shark teeth way back. Had great times swimming in the pool, ocean, fishing, boating, shrimping, crabbing, and dining out. I loved playing gin rummy, Yahtzee, and other games with my family. I loved singing with my grandmother. Thanks for the reminder. God bless you and Merry Christmas. 🙏✝️🙏

This is such an incredible story. Thank you for sharing. My parents decided earlier this week to bless some of our family who are struggling financially with some money for Christmas. That very day, my dad was shopping at our local supermarket, and when he went to pay for the groceries, they told him he had won all his groceries for free that day. That was just such a blessing to us as a family.

3:48 - Watching your video about being blessed by someone's generosity and your contemplation on how to keep the spirit of giving alive really resonated with me. It reminded me of the time you and Nate extended your kindness to my mom and me one Christmas, during a difficult period in our lives. 😊 I reached out asking for a video about handling insecurities about the past, and then you, with your incredible kindness and compassion, turned that simple request into a profound act of generosity. Your act of generosity was a beacon of hope and has stayed with us. 🙏🏻 It’s heartening to see your journey come full circle, as you ponder on passing forward kindness. You’ve already made such a significant impact, inspiring not just me but undoubtedly many others to think about how we can contribute to that chain of kindness within our means. ❤

I was so struck, the entire story, that you referred continuously to an unnamed giver. And then ultimately, there’s their name! Not theirs, but their business’ name. This fact doesn’t take away from their generosity to you - certainly they could have rented their most expensive property for $10,000 (just a guess) to someone else that week. But ultimately, I’m sure their business will indeed get even more business because of you. Paul and Morgan are good negotiators! I’m happy for you for your “you won’t believe” experience, and also, truth is, when I saw that, cozy little place you’d rented, that’s where I’d rather be all along

Just find out you two belived, or have beliebed in the past, that spankinh your children is okay, and id like ro tell uou, as an autistic kid who was spanked, why it isnt okay, specifically the restaurant part. You take your child into a place with rhings that would make him want to run around, yet you hit and restrain your child in the car rather rhan taking them outside and helping them deal with sensory overload. What your teaching them is that their normal kid behaviour, is something that is bad, that is something that is going to get them hurt, and thats horrible. When your kid grows up and gets a partner, the chance of them tolerating abuse is going to be increased ten fold because there going to expect to be abused, which just screws them up even more, even in healthy relationship, aswell as it being ontop of the fact that as someone who grew up heing screwed or their father, i can safely say i ran from him the day i turned eighteen, and you wanna know why? Because kids should NEVER be scared of the people who are supposed to portect them, NEVER.

You are giving a scripture lesson for those that don't know this one or is this a judgement on them for enjoying a generous vacation, gifted to them? And for the owners of the property, because they have money doesn't mean they worship it. Money is a tool for most Christian's, and for non-Christians, it's definitely a worship of material things including money. Money is a necessary tool in modern times, we can't live without it.

Not sure how I felt about this video. It was certainly kind of the family to give you a free vacation, but you’re also giving them free advertising. I also thought it was interesting that you equated “blessing” with material wealth. Felt a bit like it was bordering on prosperity gospel.
@emilycarr29836 ай бұрын
@moosemoose133 Haha no. I think it’s great that they were able to have this experience. Nothing wrong with that. I just personally felt a little iffy about the discussion around giving and blessings. Around the 5-minute mark, Sutton is talking about how she thinks this family has all of these blessings because they’ve been so generous, and she compared it to tithing. The way she was explaining it made it sound like if you give more, God will bless you with more material/financial wealth. She may not have meant that, that’s just how it was coming across to me and I thought it was worth sharing as others may have interpreted it the same way.

As The person who offered this to Nate and Sutton, I can honestly say that I have worked with non-Christians on similar things like this. I also work with non-Christians every day. Where the sharing of similar values and the Christian part is important is when something is going to be filmed, as that is a direct representation of my family, our morals, and what we stand for. We hung out with them throughout the week, not because of a KZbin video but because they are genuinely nice people and we share similar interests. I can appreciate your reason for asking this question!
