\u2018There Is a Revival Happening\u2019\u2014Jelly Roll Encourages People To Live Out Their Faith While Accepting Dove Award for Song of the Year<\/a><\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s like first of all, if I wasn\u2019t trying to walk with God, I would find you and slap the s*** out of you, lady, \u2019cause your voice\u2014the pitch was just so much\u2014it was like nails on a chalkboard. But I\u2019m trying to turn the other cheek and be better,\u201d DeFord said.<\/p>\n
DeFord then asked her co-hosts, \u201cIn what world is it okay to ever question somebody\u2019s walk with God?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy husband\u2019s not sitting there saying, \u2018You need to go to church. You need to donate to this freaking congregation. You need to donate to this church,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cHe\u2019s not saying that. I could understand if he was like, \u2018You need to do this. This is what you need to do.\u2019 He\u2019s literally not even saying anything. He\u2019s not asking for anything.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAll he\u2019s saying is, \u2018Hey, Jesus is for everybody. Jesus does not belong to one political party. Jesus loves you,\u2019 and the internet lost their minds,\u201d DeFord stated.<\/p>\n
DeFord blasted people for making money off critical videos they created about Jelly Roll, knowing his name would bring views.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow about donate that money to a good cause that you\u2019re making off of talking s*** about my husband?\u201d she said. \u201cYou would never do that because, why would you?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only reason why you\u2019re even questioning my husband\u2019s faith,\u201d said DeFord, \u201cis not because you genuinely care. It\u2019s because you want to make money off of his name and you want the views.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnything that has to do with me or my husband is going to get views right now because it\u2019s so controversial,\u201d DeFord explained. \u201cMy husband and I have been very open and honest about our walk with God.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jelly Roll\u2019s Wife Talks About Her Faith Journey<\/p>\n
Six months ago, DeFord shared that she stepped away from occult practices and has relied more on her faith in Jesus during her IVF journey.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen it comes to like spells and all the dark stuff, I don\u2019t want anything to do with it anymore. I rebuke it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI stopped getting spell work done, and I started leaning back into my faith more as I was going through this IVF journey because it really opened up my eyes,\u201d DeFord said. \u201cSomething about this IVF journey really made me want to lean on God and made me really see that creating a child is such a beautiful, mysterious, ethereal moment, and it just really pointed out like a lot of the dark aspects of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n
