JOY...Jesus, others, you.

I don't know a single woman who hasn't had an experience with a predator sometime in their life. I'm so grateful that women can talk about it now more openly than was possible in the past. Thanks for sharing.

Chynna how you survived your childhood with no parental guidance (seemingly) is a miracle. You are a beautiful soul. Billy will be fine.

You are so right to warn us about those predators, Chynna! And the dangers of sleep overs as a child. My sister was molested at her girlfriend’s house when she was 11 & sleeping over, several times. Her friend’s father molested her... she wasn’t even able to tell us for so long. She was a child! As an adult, she was able to confront the family to save his grandchildren... 💔

I was a kid living in California too, and was too fell victim of a sexual preditor......my mother got sick and we came back to the east coast near family cause she needed help...but that saved my brother and I....I could not imagine if we stayed in California.... then I met Jesus and became born again... saved at 27. I'm now 53 and you are right on Jesus is the answer to everything...God bless you from Florida

I was stalked by Ted Bundy in the 70's. I was about 19. A security guard saved me in Salt Lake. I'm still haunted!

A man that shows up every day is a good/rare man indeed and should be cherished separately from religion.

Parents have to be more diligent than EVER about what their children are doing.Pray for your children every day!

A wise woman told me " are you better off with or without him.". I have been married for 36 years and I am better off with him. He is a good man and dad and we are not perfect.

My dad was a sexual predator and I never knew that he was until I was in my 20s. I was already married and a police detective came to my house to ask me questions about my dad.I was shocked and so ashamed of my dad. Sad thing is that none of his victims would press charges against him. He always offered them money or gifts to keep their silence. I never left my daughter alone with him for a second. What's really sad is he molested the little sister of one of my friends ! The little sister was killed in a jet ski accident a few years later and my dad acted like nothing had ever happened. Sexual predators are all around us.

“Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭2:3-4‬ ‭ESV‬‬ I love you. You and your family are constantly in my prayers.

I had been married 21 years when I got saved. I'm sure my husband thought it was just a phase. It is 26 years later and I'm still hoping and praying my husband will be saved too. I've learned not to push it, because it just alienates him. The good news is, both of my sons are saved and that's reason to rejoice.

Chynna. I lived in Venice in the 70’s. It was infested with drugs. In fact my roommate turned out to be huge coke dealer which I did not know about until after I moved in. Thankfully I NEVER even tried coke as an inner voice (God?) told me not to. Anyway Venice was also infested with pedophiles. I heard kids screaming in homes nearby but I did not know what pedophilia was at that time. I thought it was family disputes. I should have called the police but I didn’t. Anyway I moved out as soon as I could. To this very day I feel guilty about that. Btw I was molested by my father’s best friend when I was 13. My parents never believed me when I told them. I’m still on that long dark road with you andJesus

Prayers for Billy and for you. God heals and restores. He makes a way where there is no way. I am believing in a miracle for you.

All I hungered for as a child was a sense of belonging. My deep desire for parental affection made me a PERFECT TARGET for a predator like George (I revealed his actual name in the video🤪) I pray this video will help inspire everyone to fiercely protect our children from the terrible wickedness that roams the earth. 🙏

See how smart you were at only 14 yr old, you knew you could not go back there and you helped your friends make the same decision. That is a very scary decision to make at 14 yrs old and so many 14 yr old girls would have not had the courage to do that. Keep talking Chynna because so many people need to hear the things you speak of and everyone else seems to be quiet about. You are teaching people it is ok to communicate and not be afraid of your feelings or who you are. Stellar!!

Your testimony is beautiful. I’ve been a fan of Wilson Phillips since i was a teen, and I have such respect for you, Chynna. You are an amazing woman.

Protecting our children is the most important! So true

When i was 14 and 15 I genuinely thought I knew it all and my parents thought so too. Looking back it makes me physically wince at how vulnerable I really was to opportunistic slimeballs. Nothing i can do about the past...cannot change it....but I can move forward and forgive myself.

Billy is perfect as he is. Great, hilarious, charming and amazing. Maybe take a step back and see this great man for what he is?

Chynna your honesty and vulnerability is so beautiful. I was in a similar situation when I was young. As teenage girls we are not equipped to make great choices if we haven't had a stable, solid, loving childhood with Boundaries and where we feel safe to have a voice. Your share today will wake up the maternal instincts in many mothers out there. You are a beautiful soul. xoxo

Chyna, i went off to Art school for music business in the mid 80s and i was alone. No family or friends and worked 2 part time jobs. I was groomed by my teachers there. I was told to intern somewhere. Not one but every interview i had required me to compromise my integrity. I couldn't do it and i lost my dreams because it. That is a cold hard fact. Glad you found your way. I am still working on it.✌🏼❤

Your voice is so comforting when you share🙏. I was touched by a male babysitter when I was about 7 years old. My memory of it is hidden and I have not talked about it much , but young girls are sexually abused by predators way too much. Too many are not charged with the abuse and continue to molest girls. I am so sorry that you had such horrible childhood memories. God is good and loves us no matter what. He sees us in such a way that only a loving father does. God Bless ❤️🙏💕

I stumbled onto your channel through an interview you did with Beckett Cook. I had no idea that there was any sort of revival going on in Hollywood but I'm overjoyed to know that there are actual real Christians in Hollywood! Keep up the great work and God bless your ministry. Thanks for sharing, your openness and matter of factness is refreshing and inspiring. ❤️

My childhood was similar to yours in many ways. And looking back I realized God had his hand on me. So many times the situation could have been even more tragic. I also want to defend your mom to those judging her for letting you go. People trusted other people back then. So many times I lied about where I was going and my mom believed me and let me go. Sharing your stories has helped me really break free of the shame around the situations I got myself into. And your channel has brought me closer to Jesus. Again. Thank you so much. It broke my heart to hear you and your friends not tell because they didn’t want to disappoint your parents. Been there. Peace Of Christ to you Chynna. If one day I pass you on the street I will say it back to you!❤🙏🏽

I have always felt that putting God first IS putting yourself first. The husband, then kids....etc

Billy: "You're not the same person I married". Your reply should be, "You're right. I'm a better person today".

Chynna, my mom had us four kids in church 3 x a week...my dad drove us there and later he’d pick us up. I never heard mom witness to my dad but I know she was an example of love. He was rough and yrs went by ....he got sick , heart , dementia so on. But he did watch Billy Graham but never talked it. Two yrs ago he accepted Christ with my sister guiding him as he lay in hospice. He first said he’s done bad things....then she said, we all have. Then he repeated the prayer after her. Soon after he went into a coma.

I'm in utter shock. I fell prey to predators too. It's painful to realize that I was just too young to understand the impact of it, but I feel ashamed and violated. Can't change the past. I'm so glad I came to Jesus. But hearing your story is like going back in time. They, the predators or groomers, have really similar traits. This world is full of them.

Billy should be able to choose what he wants for his life, seems like he’ll end up more resentful if he’s constantly told what he should do

And I want to thank you so much for talking about it. I don’t think there’s one girl I know that some thing has not happened to. And you’re right sometimes people do not make it out alive.

Thank you for sharing your very personal experience with us. Your courage to speak up, to open up, and to stand up for those who are vulnerable, especially our children, highlights a frighteningly tragic truth that is rampant in our culture. Prayers for your strength, healing, and continued Cal Preachin' 🙏

Chynna this came out at a perfect time. I have been having a terrible time lately with this lock down. 32 years married and I can't really talk to my husband any more. We are just not connecting. Jesus has saved me and my children and right now I need to take care of myself as he just doesn't understand after I tell him over and over what is wrong. :( Being alone is easier honestly lately

I can relate with you concerning your husband. It’s so hard not being yoked with your husband. The Holy Spirit told me years ago that I needed to stop preaching to my husband and show him how a a godly woman loves and lives. I’m not perfect and I fall short many times but I continue to show him The Jesus in me. The Proverbs 31 women is a great reminder for me.

Hi Chynna. Here is my experience. And many other women at my previous church had this happen as well. I was told: just don't worry about your husband. Just be a good example of a good Christian woman but most of all pray for his salvation & TRUST that God will answer your prayer. I once knew a lady at another church who had prayed everyday for 15 years for her husband & finally one day he asked to go to church with her & he got saved. He said it was because he saw a great change in his wife. She always loved him & never judged him or preached to him. She just became a better person who was caring & showed him love, honor, grace, & mercy. He said he just felt like one day that God was pulling at his heart to get saved & he did. :)) I did the same thing & i would just sometimes talk about God in a pleasant sort of way, about the good things that happened to me or someone else. I would share when I felt the nudging of the Holy Spirit to share a certain thing about God.

Chynna, I really appreciate you telling your story because I too had a similar experience when I was 15 that changed my life so dramatically afterward. Although the guy was older and over 18 I still felt ashamed about myself and that I had let it happen. My self-esteem and life were hurt because of the event and as a result, some of the choices and guilt from them that I made following stayed with me for what seemed like an eternity. It wasn't until I found Christ again as I had as a child that I was able to find peace and forgive myself.

Thanks for sharing Chynna! I went thru an experience when I was 16 in 1982 with an older man who worked at my dad’s small business who was 35 and married too. I was seeking attention and thank goodness it did not go a lot further. They know how to play with feelings to get what they want and act like it is ok but I was naive back then. My dad got suspicious about it and talked to him about it but never knew what he said to him. God Bless and hugs to you!

George belongs in jail.

Your honesty and ability to express yourself so clearly is so refreshing. I live in Wales UK and watching your videos and listening to you has made me think about a lot of things that I needed to work through and not push aside. Thank you, Chynna.

I’m not only comfortable with you sharing your story, but I’m comforted by it. I lived in L.A. for years before moving to Florida (still miss the food & spectacular lifestyle from the 70’s) to be with older parents. Here, people tell me all the time how many experiences I had, how lucky 🍀 I was (still am) for all I did. It was a different but great lifestyle. Like you, I was saved…did a LOT & came out ok. Somebody was watching out for us, Chyna. 😇

Travel is overrated…I’m with you on that! I’ve done it and can’t wait to get home every time. Thank you for sharing your story on who these predators are…everyone talks about “stranger danger”, still. It’s always people we know! Predators are clever and hurt our children right under our eyes. We have to be more aware of how these people operate! Bless you…

Most, if not all of us, have people in our lives that we pray for, and want desperately for them to come to Christ. It can be frustrating for us because we want to see it happen...NOW. The waiting and longing, and being patient is sooo hard sometimes. I've just recently (a couple of months ago) found your channel. I so appreciate your honesty and your love of Christ. An authentic Christian/person is refreshing and relatable.

That man should be in prison for what he did and he preyed on it looks like many children, at 14 you are a child.

Saw your sisters interview on Studio10 today. I got freedom from believing I was complicit in my Dad abusing me. I’ve struggled for years with that, so praise God! I hope she also comes to Jesus!

You were very intuitive at a young age. That’s a gift , but I’m so very sad this happened to you, my dear😞

I heal listening to you... Thank you for that!

Just remain patient. Billy seems to have a good heart and his conversion will come on God's time not yours. Keep the faith.

Anyone who is the victim of a predator - it is NOT your fault. May you continue to heal more & more Chynna & yes, that Billy does choose God Almighty in time. Thank you for another wonderful chat of past memories and pain - yet this will help many people. Amen. 🙏🙏🙏.

Billy is on his own path. Don't hound him. I am an introvert. If you pushed me, I would clam up no matter what I really felt in my heart. Don't press me, don't press him.

We all need to lift up Billy daily for salvation. My aunt prayed for my mom to get saved for 17 years. I will be lifting Billy and U up. Man. Bless your heart, you have so much trauma in your life. U are a very strong individual! Keep looking up Chynna, God's got u! He loves you! And so do we!

Your doing the right thing by waiting because he will come around. My mother was married to my father who was not saved. At the 40 year mark of their marriage he became saved. They have been married for 54 years now and their marriage is totally different for the better.

Just shine, my sister. It is within the blanket of love that you provide, that God can whisper to his heart. When you feel the energy of 'forcing,' immediately let go with your palms facing up. The faster you can train yourself to do this, the more the Holy Spirit will have to work with. And keep shining; you are truly a light in this world!

Keep the FAITH, Chynna! All things will pass away, but your Faith will last forever!

Ya met Bill at 23. I’m guessing you’ve both matured and “changed” and I believe that is totally normal. Imagine the opposite - no change at all. How weird - to be suspended in a 23 yr old’s world view at age 50...❤️

Thank you for your honesty Chynna ... I too have been victimized by a few predators in my lifetime and consider myself quite lucky that I wasn't killed. One of the predators knocked me unconscious and brought me to a second location ... I know that he would've raped and killed me if someone hadn't scared him away. This is why we should never judge people. We never know what they've been through and if we did, we'd understand why they are who they are.

I was molested ( raped) by my Dad as a child, so I can relate to your stories. I too came to Christ, and have been serving Him for going on 27 years. I'm so Thankful for Jesus coming into my heart. The things I have gone through, have made me a strong person of Faith in God, and I know He would never hurt me. Its been a process but I know that we are victorious through Jesus. There's one thing that I do know is that, our Father in Heaven Loves us, and we can count on Him. Thank you Chynna for your down to earth conversations, I do appreciate them. Love you Sister in Christ.

That man should be reported. Hope he has been caught. It's never too late. Otherwise he continues to abuse.

I am blessed EVERY time you speak. Thank you for your authenticity. The Lord is using you mightily! God bless you and your family.

This time of “isolation” from your husband is your time to prepare yourself to welcome him when he opens the door after hearing the knock on the door. Have peace in the Lord and ask Him to fill your heart with with His joy and Love and Mercy during this preparation time. 🙏🏻✝️❤️

Words are easy, look at how Billy loves you with his actions each and every day. Don’t judge anyone. Just love him back.

Chynna thank you for you courage and honesty in sharing those difficult and traumatic stories from your past with us...and alll that you deal with on a daily basis. We are all in this boat together and there is comfort in that we are not alone in our journey through this life on a path to healing, understanding and ultimately forgiveness. Thank you for helping us to heal our traumas through your testimony...blessings to you always!

This is revolutionary Chynna!!..I love the fact that you are so transparent. Thank you for sharing because you are making it okay for us to speak our stuff. God bless you

The gall of that predator. Shame on him. What a horrible experience Chynna. You are so open hearted, bless you and thank you for your honesty always. You are so easy to listen to. ❤

Thank you for sharing your story! Everything happens for a reason and all we can do is learn from those things 🙏. I definitely want to share your stories with my two kids when they get old enough to understand! A good wakeup call!

Your story is relatable. Thank you for speaking about it. For some of us we’ve never felt able to speak about it to anyone. It’s comforting in an odd way. Praying Billy comes around to the faith. Hugs and 🙏🙏😘

Holla! 43 years married onDec. 2. 👏🏼❤️ It always takes some patience and a whole lot of love and faith and forgiveness.

God's Grace protects Us. You are a breath of fresh air. Bless You.

How refreshing to hear the truth spoken. I believe God was keeping an eye on you during those terrible times. You are brave and strong.

U r an absolute doll inside & out ! Thank U 4 being sooo 1000 all the time ! U r helping sooo many people! Grateful 4 U ! 🥰

You had way too much freedom as a fourteen year old.

Very helpful to explain what happened with George . . that is the kind of info that keeps girls safe . . you're awesome . .

Many Blessings to you, Chynna! I appreciate your stories about your journey. You have taken bad and turned it good. Super proud of you!

I find your strength infectious because you are so honest and brave. I don’t know how you are so resilient and transparent but it’s so real. If you don’t know how great you are with your ability to tap into the truth, I thought you should know that I can see it. I’m glad you are living your best life.

Everyone grows n evolves , billy probably isn’t the same either .

Michelle Phillips sounds like the most negligent mother in the world! Letting her daughter leave with a strange man?! My mom would have NEVER approved a sleepover with people she didn't know!!

Thank you Chynna, for telling of your horrible experience about the predator. It has helped me to understand that they exist in this world and something needs to be done against them.

I am so sorry this happened to you Chynna! You are very brave in sharing this! Unfortunately, this is not unusual. I hope others will also be healed and helped knowing they are not alone-and certainly this is NOT their fault!

My understanding is we expose others to the gospel and then it's the holy spirit who takes over .

I really appreciate you sharing your most personal experiences and telling of how God has held you in his care and kept you safe and from these evil predators. The importance of knowing people aren't alone is very healing as well. Thank you Chynna for this and God Bless you!

Thank you so much for being transparent.

This was quite an eye opening account of your youthful experiences. I think it is very kind and very brave of you to share such tramatic past experiences. It is a great lesson to teens and children about outside influences from "friends" that you meet out and about in the world. We need to let everyone know about these kinds of people that exist outside of our homes. I think your story is so important and can help legions of youth. Never trust anyone. If it seems to good to be true it is. Thank you so much for sharing this most important lesson!

I also wanted to say, I had Similar experiences in my young life, and yes.., I realize the Lord was with me through it all...

Thank you so much for sharing! Yes there are so many predators out there. Thank you for trusting us! My husband in not a believer either. I pray for him everyday and I give him to God. I don't preach to him I just love him as he is! Your example and your love is powerful! Only the Lord can change hearts! Keep Loving and keep praying for him and so will I!

Thank you so much, Chynna. The strength of your faith is more inspiring than you might realize. Please continue sharing through these videos.

Heartbreaking. So sorry that you were targeted by such an evil person. Thank you for sharing this message.

Billy shows how much he loves the Lord by providing for his family, by treating his wife and children well. I don't think he should have to jump through any hoops. Loosen up .. I think that's the answer. You have eternity to be with Jesus. You only have now to be with your husband. Honor your husband and put him first and see what happens.

If you don't relax around Billy/let it be, discontent will crush you, then him.

"Healing begins when someone bears witness." Olivia Benson Chynna, for years I’ve wished I got the chance to sit down and talk with you... because we are so similar in so many ways. I’ve wanted to tell you my story for so, so long! I’m proud of you for this. Though this video took me by surprise; it made me feel not so alone. I was also 14 when my predator who was (37) took advantage of me for 2 years. I won’t go into detail, but every type of abuse you can think of, I endured. It started messy and ended messy. I’m 26 now.... and it took me this long to understand the grooming process and that I indeed was a victim. The mental anguish is still up to this day at times unbearable. If I’m honest, from what I’ve learned in years and years of therapy is grooming is by the book. Sometimes I’m hard on myself about not seeing the red flags... and I stop myself and say “you were 14.. a child... and vulnerable”. Though I’m not a big believer in the lord, I do love your channel, bravery and honesty. I know the amount of courage it takes to tell your story. Like you, I have plenty of bad ones from my childhood and often times can’t even get the words out.. especially without hyperventilating. I’m often asked how I am still standing as well. It’s a miracle. But you have to believe there’s a bigger purpose we made it out of the storm. Thanks for this🧡

Chynna, don’t fret. You are doing exactly the right thing by loving your husband and being that light and salt. You exude the virtuous wife in Proverbs 31. You speak so much wisdom and truth. Because of this, your worth is “far above rubies” to him. and your children “rise up and call her blessed.” Keep the faith! Praying for Bill and my lost family members as well on a daily basis.

I love and adore you, Chynna. Thank you for opening up and thank God you found healing. I know you have helped many and heightened our awareness. xox Peace of Christ child of Christ!

Chynna, so sorry you had to go through what you went through. May the Lord Jesus continue to give you strength through the difficult times and shine his light of Love on you.❤🙏🙏🙏 For your husband and you and family. Much love to you and your family my sister in Christ.❤🤗

Thank you for sharing, I love your ministry, I just found it online. I also have painful stories of predators at a young age, I love your heart for others, God bless you!

Thank you again Chynna for your courage in your videos, truths, love & compassion for others to pray for them, & to also bring up the truths of what you have been through. You are helping MANY people, & thank you. Yes, the bad was turned into the good to help heal yourself & other people simultaneously. Amen. 😁🙏🙏🙏.

Thank you, Chynna, for sharing. You are helping many of us. God bless and keep you, in Jesus' Name🙂

You are so brave and generous to share your personal stories. I can relate very much so to it. Listening to you made me tear up. I had a family who are still a family of predators and enablers. It was a tough childhood. Luckily God has been looking out for me and I am doing better than what statically I should have been. Bless you so much! Your vids help me heal and feel less alone in this world. Peace of Christ Chyna. Thank you !

I love you Chynna.... I so want you to feel like you can share your experiences. We all have our experiences in this life. It so helps to hear from other people about theirs. We may not have the same experience as you, but we have our experience. God is with you and he’s with me. I want to thank you for your kind words to me when my youngest sister passed almost 2 months ago. She was cremated and we had her burial yesterday. I love and miss her terribly. God bless you! ❤️🙏🏻❤️

You are just so open and honest and hold nothing back. Jesus uses wonderful people like you to touch other souls like me. Thank you dear.

What does Billy want? It’s his life too.

First, You are so brave to share this with us, but I believe it's all part of your healing process. It still hurts to hear this happened to you, so young.😢 I am believing God will send laborers to Billy that he will respond to. You continue to be the good, loving, creative woman he loves and is obviously so proud of. Off topic, I woke up today with a strong desire to pray for your oldest daughter this morning. I don't know anything about her but please know I covered her in prayer and protection. Love you and California Preachin' ♥️♥️♥️

Love that your so open and honest! And the courage that God gives us! Chynna, ❤ U!
