God has given Waco beauty for ashes. It no longer is known for the government siege that left 74 men, women and children dead back in 1993. Today, Waco is a destination place because of Chip and Joanna Gaines, with tourist numbers tripling to 1.9 million a year, in large part because of the Christian couple's Magnolia Market at the Silos.

Romans 1:16 16For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Refreshing to see/hear people proclaim the Truth.

The liberals and Democrats hate this couple. I’ve seen nothing but positives from them and hate from the MSM and left where they are concerned. More evidence and reasons to dislike the liberals, Democrats, and MSM.

I caught an episode in which Joanna placed several pieces of artwork on a wall. The piece that stood out to me proclaimed: “We walk by faith, not by sight.”

I believe the biblically approved method to announce one’s Christian faith is a “WWJD?” wall plaque.

“We walk by faith, not by sight.”

My wife passed away three weeks ago and that is the last thing she was able to write.

2 Cor 5-7

That is how she lived her life.

Interesting that this couple made it so big on HGTV which seems to heavily favor same sex couples on other of its shows.

I’m saddened to read of your loss. She is safe in God’s Hands now and faith has become sight for her.

She fought cancer for over 8 years and never backed down. Her faith is what made her daily struggle her source of strength.

But don’t send your daughter to Baylor. Like Hollywood, the regents knew and tried to hide it.

And don’t wear a MC patch or the cops might shoot you. The same cops who helped Baylor protect the rapists.

“She fought cancer for over 8 years and never backed down. Her faith is what made her daily struggle her source of strength.”

Dealing with cancer that long would require strong faith. I’ve known a few people of faith who had to handle long-term illness/disease, they were made of stronger stuff than me.

Hope you’re you are getting along okay, take good care.

I think the Buzzfeed attack was going to be just the beginning, with very politically correct HGTV demanding they include same sex couples in the show. Lord knows they push those couples on us on House Hunters several times a week.
They are quitting before that can happen. Better to return to private life.
They have also been battling a cosmetics company that has been advertising itself as Joanna’s business, when in fact she has nothing to do with it and has told them to stop.

I know!! It seems to be at least one homosexual couple on the channel every day. I immediately change the station. Never have to when Fixer Upper is on.
And, their kids are adorable. They work with the animals and seem to be a genuinely good, Christian family. They make me smile.

So sorry for your loss. Keep the faith. You’ll see her again.

Our faith has never wavered. Her two boys loved their momma and she taught them how to be great young men.

I just hope I didn’t upset her. I can see me at the Pearly Gates and she is telling St. Peter that I might need to wait a bit.

I always thought that I was the spiritual leader. No.

She lived by example.

You my friend were blessed with a very Godly woman. Her testimony will be remembered.

I pray for you and your surviving family during this time of loss.

I am reminded of some words I heard a very respected pastor say one time.

For those of us who are believers in Christ and who's loved ones who've departed were believers....we will be with our departed loved ones longer than we will be without them.

I took great comfort in that belief when my parents passed away.

This article has an oddly snarky tone. Ast times I couldnt figure out if the writer was mocking the Gainses or not.

It’s not only House Hunters - many other programs on HGTV are “politically correct” Friday had multiple “Husbands” on the Lottery Winner show. Could not flip the channel fast enough.
