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.

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

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.

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.

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

Joanna’s book tells their story and how they seek God in every situation and decision. They have had a very bumpy ride, but in the end, they have been blessed. I will miss their show. It is one of the few I watch on TV.

I could tell from the very first episode we watched of their show that they were genuine Christians. It came out in the way they interacted with customers, their children and each other. It was NOT faked. I'm glad to see that HGTV has not succumbed to making EVERYTHING politically correct. I get tired of seeing so many homosexual couples featured in house hunting programs. It's almost like they have to do such shows with them in order to stay current. We usually turn the channel when that happens.
