He’s capable of cleaning up the trash. You don’t have to have a birth certificate to pick up trash.

I lived in Cincinnati for 15 years and a lot of my colleagues lived in Indiana and Kentucky in single-wides, double-wides and even occasionally units similar to the above that they owned. I used to visit them from time to time and their place was literally an image of my house, down-sized to their dimensions and kept immaculate! There's absolutely never any place for living in squalor. I bet, if I gave this guy a $100,000 home, he'd turn it into a shambles within three months. It's never about "what you have", it's always about "who lives there."

I'm not a wealthy guy but how on earth do people live in that filthy condition?! It takes NO MONEY TO PICK UP TRASH AND STAY CLEAN!!! We didn't have a lot of money growing up but we were taught to be clean, respectful and decent.

Poor guy. He needs to be shown how to live properly. That’s been my struggle. I just recently spent a couple days with a proper family(I spent a couple days visiting) and I was blown away at how amazing life can be… but here I am back living alone in a horrible trailer park alone. I’m in this situation because I had to care for my disabled father. I didn’t have a mom or siblings to help and I couldn’t leave him to suffer alone. So… when he passed away they took the house and now I’m struggling. But I got a glimpse the other day at what life should be like. Hopefully I can press forward and get things right. Feel bad for that guy but he seems to be making excuses for his situation. I work three jobs and I’m trying my hardest to get my life on track.

Damn, look at the Roaches in there Someone has money for a ton or PEPSI but can't pay for the shed.

This young man needs a mentor and fast! He is stuck in all of the negativity that surrounds him.

The lady living in this shed recently had several cats removed as she locked them in the shed for several days without food or water. Someone turned the neglect in and they removed the poor cats. Now she got more, I see. If people want to continue living like this, don’t get innocent pets that you don’t feed or water. There’s a huge backstory involving this family. As angry as I can get concerning animal neglect and abuse, I pray they find their way as a family. You showed great mercy.

That was very kind of you. Sharing the word of God with him let’s him know there’s always hope.

Does he need a birth certificate to clean up and kill bugs? It was good to allow them to stay an extra week, but I have a feeling it will still be the same situation when you come back.

a little less pepsi....a little more raid

"I grew up Amish". Finally, the accent makes sense. I grew up buying furniture with my family from the Amish in Lancaster, PA and they were always so kind to us. Love the content, subscribed!

Blows my mind anyone can live in that condition.

I actually feel bad for the cats.

I appreciate how you treated him with dignity and grace. It's definitely a difficult situation. It came across as though he's been in a space of negativity and being a victim. That comes from Satan telling you to give up and just wallow in your current conditions and to not ask. There are a lot of people who've been in that place so long they don't want anything good to come to them because blessings open doors and that's work. Thank you for trying to expose him to our Lord and to tell him to keep trying. I'll be saying a prayer for him and his mother. I'll also say a prayer for you to continue to be used by our Lord to deliver His message. God bless you and your family! We enjoy your videos. 🙏🏻😊

I’ve offered to teach homeless folks to weld for no charge. Not a single one has said yes.

Great answer asking for God's help. As a former Amish, you must run into this a lot. Will say a special prayer for all concerned. Thanks for all you do. Tom

Older man once told me that you have to get your want to fixed, I come up as a kid not having a whole lot, I was blessed with a daddy that worked his but off to take care of us, that made us appreciate what we had, Believe in yourself, then you can do anything, God bless you Brother

Yes, the power of prayer works, but only in "His" time.

I love that you ask him if he had prayed about it. The shed company was nice to give them a little more time. God bless.

this is the hardest thing I've ever watched on KZfaq. Good on you for giving them a chance, you did all you could. I can't imagine being in your shoes.

You are a kind compassionate young man! I would be proud to call you son!

You are a fine man. Telling the young man to ask. God for help. You. Always help when you can.Stay safe.

Kudos to you for giving him a break and trying reach him. It doesn't cost anything to clean up around the place. Perhaps someone sees his work ethic and him taking pride in his surroundings and offers him work or job.

You are such a respectful and pleasant human being. You show people compassion when you don’t need to. We need more people like you in the world🙌❤️

How sad, that young man said it has been this way his whole life. I hope that things get better for them and they get a place to live

I live in a 14x36, but it's fully wired, insulated and plumbed with a full kitchen, bathroom and separate bedroom. Has central heat and air, vinyl windows and a deck around it. But I paid it off early and put thousands of dollars into it to make it nicer than most folks houses.

Really love the driver. I recently lost my father and I’ve been talking to God a lot about it and he does listen and he helps. He will never abandon you.

People don't like to admit that there is a definite connection between long-term poverty and intelligence.

YES 🙌 GOD IS THE ANSWER 🙏

The issue of not having a birth certificate IS a major problem. Makes it pretty much impossible to obtain a driver's license and ID. Without those, it's near impossible to get a job. If you do get a job, you can't cash a check with no ID. It's a bad situation. He needs to see someone with the County to assist him.

You are a good man, trying to help that gentleman even when he won't help himself.

Josh, you are a very wise young man. Testifying to that young man about God helping. Thank you

Thanks for giving him the pep talk, no one should live like that, get a job and work your way out of it. Thanks for the video.

Well done Josh. I find it hard to believe that people really live like that now days. That was very sad to watch. Again why in the hell do they have animals when they can't take care of them selves. WOW

I've said it before and will again. You're a fine young man and you did the right thing. I have a lot of respect for you and your sweet wife. God bless you

Thank you for taking your time and t@lking to him

I love that you talked to him about God. You are so right about asking God for help.

Living in poverty causes depression. When you are depressed, you feel hopeless. When you are hopeless, you have no incentive to clean, or try to improve your situation. Strong willed people pull themselves up bit by bit. It is the weak who drown in sorrow. If drugs or alchohol are keeping you down, you have to get clean. If bad luck is keeping you down, change your luck by being proactive and positive. If laziness is keeping you down, get your butt up and do something. Anything! Start small and build on it. Start by cleaning yourself, then your surroundings. You will start to feel better. Don't be too ashamed to ask for help. Take that help and help yourself, then, help someone else.

I just prayed for this young man and his mother. That God would break their unbelief and cure their spiritual poverty first and foremost and that His people would take care of their needs. You are doing good work. You planted a seed and you may have to go back and take the shed, but they need a change and hopefully God would use this to effect it. Love your channel and your heart.

So sad. You’re to be commended on the way you handled this situation.

This is so very sad. You're a good person. Thank you for sharing the Lord with this young man. God Bless you!

🕊🙏🏼🕊 Lord help the lost and confused and show them the path to the Holy Spirit and into your arms. Amen 🕊

We grew up poor but clean and dad never left stuff around. It's a mental thing....change.

I've been viewing your vid's, and because you show such empathy, and mad skills, I sub'd! A person can live poor, but no reason to live dirty.

Good for you, you have heart for others. And you are correct, when you are on the bottom the only way way out is up, it is very good you planted the seed.

I said a prayer but man those bugs in the crack of the door…. If that doesn’t motivate you to get out of there and make a better life for yourself then nothing will.

You definitely go above and beyond for your job, along with being great at it.

It doesn't take money to keep a clean tidy home, be it a trailer, shed or home. This is very sad, you are so dignified and treat everyone with such respect!

Wow, he was amish that is kool. I am from Ohio and the company he repos for is the town I was born in. It was awesome when he said talk to God ❤🙏

I can't feel sorry for excuses as I've been homeless because of my bad decisions but even then I worked for the dope I shot in my arm, no ID required. I even lived in a shed for three winters and keep it spotless and I'd bathe using a bucket of hot water from the turkey fryer. Prison is what I needed years earlier and what saved me. Thank goodness I was in a state that had the resources in prison because believe it or not they do not want you coming back. It's also where I got my birth certificate, social security card and a picture ID free of charge just like every state I've lived in.

Thank You Very Much for trying to help that young man. i Do know that GOD' is Real and Very Alive. i have been homeless two times in my life time. praying for that young man. Amen.

Great show keep up the amazing work be safe my friends God bless all

While you're sitting around not having a birth certificate you can pick up a broom and clean.

I kept waiting for you to tell the guy “look , just start with cleaning this place up to instill some self worth in your self”. But if the county has posted it as condemned and that didn’t motivate him to clean it up , probably not much will .

That’s the stuff that breaks your heart. At 21, he’s still a kid. He and his mom have no plan to get out of the mess they’re in. Prayer is all we can do from here.

You earn every dollar you get. Tough job right there bro, I wouldn't want to do it.

That was such a nice thing to do. Youre a good man sir. Very few would do what you did and its very refreshing to see someone look out for another who is having a hard time. It broke my heart to see that especially the cats. I hope they can get a place to live thats clean and safe. I just really dont think anyone in this country should go without a home or medical care. Thank you again. We need more people like you in this world.

You r doing the Lords wrk sharing gospel message...so sad it happens bt God uses us fr HIS glory. HE HAS A PLAN &WE MUST BELIEVE HE IS FAITHFUL🙏

Bless you! When you said have you ever ask god for help! I felt that god is always my first go to and I always get the same response that this young man had.. like oh I gave up I lost faith or I’ve tried and it doesn’t work but you have to believe it! Speak it claim it! You are a man of faith

I've lived in my truck twice before so basically homeless and managed to pull myself back but it's VERY hard! I know exactly what he meant about the id,birth certificate,social security card thing. You need one to get the other but you need the other to get the one!

If he isn't working, I wonder what occupies this young man's time during the day?

You’re a good man for talking to this kid like you did.

Haha his mom has a KZfaq channel named Self Taught Beauty. She’s been documenting her life in the shed and has been begging her subscribers for money for a very long time. None of them will work and it’s just excuse after excuse. You can’t help someone who don’t want to help themselves! I don’t feel bad for them anymore.

You’re such a good man. I agree that we should not judge and instead pray. This is terrifyingly sad. Imagine if you were destitute in poverty and could only afford to rent a shed on someone’s property. Only to get evicted at random because the property owner can’t pay his bills. One moment you have shelter the next you don’t. I think we should all be able to empathize with these humans.

God bless you bro for giving this young man a break….. God is merciful with those who are with others…

One doesn't have to own a lot, but no excuses for living in filth amongst trash. Doesn't cost anything to keep what you have clean. Plenty of work around without needing "papers" just ask those crossing the southern border. The lawn service here will hire you if you can run a weed wacker...$15 per hour...10 hour days, cash, no questions asked. God helps those who help themselves.

God helps those that help themselves. Money for beer and pop

You are a good man for sure my friend.

The young man is well spoken and seems smart enough. If he got his documents, I'm quite sure he could handle a job. Best of luck to him and his Mom. I believe he can do well.

Wow, I actually had no idea people survived like this. It breaks my heart for them. I have been on hard times too, but not like that. My prayers and good vibes go out to them!

The company that allowed the extra time and didn't force him out. Is a pretty decent thing to do .

You did right young man. And prayers for them. Cause God does work. But you have to do your part. No free ticket I’ve been there.

Wow, you’re an impressive guy. Clearly a tough job but you handle it superbly in every way. Big respect.

PREACH MY FRIEND..... I've been watching your Video's for a good week now. I only wish I'd seen you sooner and I'm clueless as to how one of your Video's popped up when I went on KZfaq. I've never watched Repo Video's before but poof there you were one day. Your ability to interact with folks ESPECIALLY in a Repo situation just blows my mind. I truly believe it's a "God thing" that I found your Channel. Your compassion through Christ just shines right through. I admire the fact that the Gospel appears at ALL the right times when you're on the road doing your job. I understand that many folks are opinionated about Religion in a negative way and I'm sure at some point you've been spoken to negatively when the first hint of Religion leaves your lips so if you appear to be guarded when it comes to that subject i certainly understand it. I cannot fathom where my life would be had I not spent time living at our Summer Cottage in an Amish Community in Middlebury, Indiana. Though I'm not Amish I have the utmost Respect for the Amish Community. I now know where you got your "hard working" ethic from for sure if that makes any sense. Thank you for giving this young man the "Have you asked God for help?" message. Those word's will resonate with him. Mark my word's. Bless you and your beautiful Wife Sir.

Their are a lot of young people now days that just dont wont to work or expect something for free. I know alot of them that are on the system and it makes you sick.i think you will be back for that shed that's how the company makes their money.

Poor kid, I feel bad for him. Yes it will get better! Good job sir and thanks for your videos.

I'll pray for that young man we all need God amen

Thank you and God bless you all

My son does not have a birth certificate but he has an ID and passport due to hard work starting when he was two. The guy's mom needs to just get the birth certificate and as a mom she can. He needs to get this done now.

Your an a amazing gentleman to try and work with people in their current situations. I'm sure there are other repo men who would just take it.

Your a good man,we find pride in your life and endeavors. Thank you.

Everyone has an excuse. Glad the company gave them a chance to get their stuff out. But however it goes in the future, it’s not your fault. They have to take ownership of their own lives.

This one really broke my heart. That being said, I'm sure America, like many other countries, has 'off the book' jobs that pay cash and don't require ID. It is kinda funny though, how many governments want to tax your income, but can't be bothered to help you get the legal documents you need to make a legit income they can tax.

It’s crazy how folks live like this not knocking them either it saddens me to see this. My family and I struggle everyday but damn this is next level. Makes you think how lucky some of us are even with our own problems. Good bless these folks I truly pray they find a better life. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I just found your channel. Good on you brother for treating that young man like a fellow human.

SO SO SAD.. GOD BLESS

been watching your videos for a while, figured you were probably first generation off the farm. it’d be interesting to watch a video where you talk a little about your story!

Poor kitty's, bubbles would be ashamed

That’s a shame that people weren’t given the skills to not have to live in a shed. You did the right thing

Oof, when he said, “I have been homeless my whole life.” My heart broke!

I'm the same age as the man in this video, I feel for him, but I also hope he can break out of the cycle he is in. He CAN break it, he just needs to see for himself that he is strong enough to.

Good lessons learned from this one. Shed happens.

You’re a Good Man, Josh.

That's a tough situation for someone 21 yrs old. No birth certificate and living like that. I'm not very religious but I'm saying a prayer.

You handled that well. I feel bad for that guy but he is young and healthy. He needs to get out and try to find some decent work. I am sure someone can give him a chance.

Kudos to you for sharing your faith in such an awkward, tough situation.

Wow thank you for being so nice to everyone you coming contact with , prayers and faith work for me too .

IT DOESN'T COST MONEY TO CLEAN UP !!!!!

If you ever wanna get an idea of what someone’s house looks like inside, look around the outside. I don’t know how ppl can live like that! I understand the struggle and homelessness, but there’s no excuse for all that trash all around (inside and out) 🤮🤮🤢🤢

You gave him the best advice that anyone could. God loves him .. hope he starts to believe again.
