Wonder if anyone thinks of how his mama felt. In that time so much was different, and women were, especially, a Christian woman did what she needed to do to keep the family together. I’m sure she lived in fear. This is very touching, but, it’s not all the story. Just my thoughts.

Thank you, a Honda! I purposely chose to watch this, as I have been very down. Laughing and listening to stories of others, and you beautiful song. God bless you!🌸🙏🦋💜🕊🦋🙏💎💖💙🌸 🙏

Just love that woman! I can relate to her in many ways

Nice production, but Amy Grant ain't nobody I'd be takin' advice from. Just sayin'.

Great comedy show....glad to hear all Christian comedians...very funny stuff!

Prayers for you Chonda

Thanks for being you, Chondra....love your comedy and sense of fun.

His adoptive mother is a TREASURE! Oh, wow . . . God's provision

This man's music shaped so much of my early faith walk back in the 80s. I am sad that he's been through so much but what a way to give God glory for even the worst of circumstances.

What a weak human

Thank you for being so vulnerable in telling your story. I am a pastors wife who has a son who did what your daughter did to you. It’s not fair, it hurts and it can cripple us if we let it but our God is bigger than all of our problems. Thank you for sharing and letting us know that we are not alone in all this. Praise God!

Amy Grant is very disappointing…her laughter in this video, among other things

I saw a video right before this. It was completely raw. Watching him hurt and heal at the same time. It was beautiful. Recommend it also.

Hope Tori isn’t a functional “savior” for him.

This was such a wonderful testimony of love mercy grace reconciliation restoration and so much more. My heart rejoices in God. And guess what yall.....Hes no respector of person😆😆 There is hope in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ❤❤🎉 hallelujah and praise God

Has a Huey and the News thing going with his voice!

The greedy self centered wife was the problem

Russ is a beautiful man of God. So genuine and humble!.❤

I was 21 years old when I gave my heart to God. Russ Taff was one of the first albums i bought. His voice sent me closer to Jesus. Beautiful man of God!.❤

Chonda, the kids go away (become estranged) even when you have been an attentive, stay-at-home mom.♥️

My friend, Lee Bond, brought Minnie Pearl to show and tell in first grade.

You never hit a cow with your airplane but you have said you did hit a deer and ruined the airplane.

The sad thing about the prescription for the eye drops is it would not work either considering the way doctors write in scribble form and not even the pharmacy can read the words.

1:24:00 The preacher teaching his sons how to die. WHAT AN AMAZING AND STRONG WITNESS. One that we will all need. Help us Lord to live AND die to Your glory as we struggle to commit to, ' Not my will but Thine' each day. Bearing our crosses daily to and for Your glory. Knowing the victory is already won and THOU ART WITH ME. Please Lord, give peace in the valley. Thank you for this incredible witness. Many share these cptsd, dysfunctional family dynamic with alcoholic and narcissistic elements. Dragging demons into the light is why Satan's gates cannot withstand the Church. Jesus IS the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE.

Wow and she can sing too!! God bless her!

Yeen an inspiration to me and I admire you and appreciate your vulnerability. I lost my husband very unexpectedly two years ago. The last two days I have been depressed and lost my joy. I am struggling. I was going through You Tube and found your documentary . I so relate to your story. Thank you for being obedient to God's calling on your life. You are enough and by the grace of God, I am enough! ❤

I love hearing from Amy Grant about marriage. 🥴

Being a Christian Entertainer has nothing to do with a relationship with Christ.

Waw, I didn’t know that she sings. She sings so beautifully!!!Blessing!

You might believe, Russ, but I saw your Soft White Underbelly interview and was grieved by the language you use. I glad you believe but you need God to sanctify your tongue.

Praise the Lord, and thanks for the laughs...:)

Love the 1991 Mork and Mindy Jump suit!😂 Nani nanu

What satan meant for evil God meant for good! The whole time you were writing and performing God used it for His glory! He knew you would heal. I understand all of it as I was an alcoholic who was raised in a non Christian alcoholic home. Praying for your continued healing and enlightenment as you go forward! PRAISE THE LORD!!

Wow sorry Russ. I thank God for all the love that all these Godly people showed you.

Your music inspired a generation of young Christians in the 80s when I was a youth pastor. I remember bringing a group to see you in Chicago when you appeared on Channel 38, a Christian TV station. You were such a kind and thoughtful person in the interview. Watching this video, I was gripped by your story and could feel your pain as you relived it. What amazed me most, was how you never let go of your faith when you had every reason to by what you experienced. I’m sharing this video with other people who I know will be impacted by your testimony of God’s grace in your life. Thank you for being God’s instrument to the world!

I was a big Russ Taff fan in the 80s. This is a very raw qccount of his life. His story is so relatable to many

This was soooo funny!😆👍

Hate Pentecostal preaching disingenuous disrespectful

I could lecture 4 hours on this topic my ancestors were druid witches that converted to Catholicism finally into Protestant we've got hundreds of years of Alcoholics musicians in my family. There is no Darker Demon than the demon of Alcohol. Don't be deceived I do not believe a Christian can drink alcohol and say their saved, and neither could I. 25 now, Sister 15 years now only Jesus

Love their accent! I grew up in a German Mennonite Brethren community from grade 6-12. They had a Christian High School. Only 20 mi from the Sasketchewan border in MT.

To much stupidity for me!! I’m baling!

A magnificent testament to the innocence and wonder that is now absent from not only our youth, but our entire world....thank you.

The song ~first in this movie...."forgiven". So upbeat and fun. Thank you!!!!

God here is my body use me and mold me to proclaim your love to the world. Help me to know Your will and continue Your foriveness and mercy through Your Son, Jesus Christ! Amen Amen and Amen

Such a great testimony thank you for sharing it with us Russ & Tori. God truly is a Great & Good God. Hebrews 13:5 I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU, NOR FORSAKE YOU. Amen. All Praise, Honor, & Glory to the King of kings, & Lord of lords the only True God Jesus Christ. Amen.

As always Ken is a blessing

1:04 me to

My daughter's both do not want me in their lives . It hurts. I pray even if they never talk to me again they will know Jesus and forgive my past mistakes.

Chonda, You are a Woman of Freedom! Thank you Jesus!
