I may be wrong but I think that’s Jinger.  I see breasts and small, lady-like hands.

Hahaha, I thought at first people meant the pic was of Jeremy holding jinger, rather than him holding felicity. A tiny and shirtless jinger.

If you all think Jeremy is bad with sneakers, you need to check out the dad from another TLC family - Adam Busby. He even has a sneaker link on his IG. I'm guessing he owns 50 - 100 pairs.

Also, Adam might be more in love with his own image, than Jeremy is with his.

The third runner up in the Guy Who Loves Himself category is Carlin Bates' husband - Evan Stewart.

I sometimes check on the Outdaughtered thread. Adumb Busby is a piece of work and he definitely thinks he's hot stuff. With all of the hairspray he uses, if someone ever lights a match around him, I swear his head would exploded.

I cannot be the only one who had a looong moment of, "Ricardo Montalban & Fernando Llamas are.... different people?" Like I know that (they've got different names!) but I thought of them interchangeably. 

Though I have a vague recollection of a SNL skit featuring both. The skit was a game show called, "¿Quien es más Macho?" (Who is the most Macho) and it was great. 

Jeremy's phone in church is just disgusting.

On the upside, I guess we heathens learn something valuable from this.

Those two are a graduate (Isaias, class of '20) and an almost graduate of the seminary that John MacArthur (and a fairly large number of other people) consider the most intellectually and theologically rigorous of all seminaries in the country. 

 

This is VERY not true in my experience. Master's is not regarded by anyone I know or can find (other than Jer) as a reputable seminary (I'm a Degree Holding Religious Scholar© - - I am, but saying it that way makes me giggle. Jeremy would love it! - - so I have a bit of reference). It isn't even considered a top EVANGELICAL seminary! In fact, there are like a half-dozen seminaries in Texas he could have gone to that are of better (so, marginal) quality. Even the Evangelicals (no I didn't go there). I'm assuming Jer couldn't get into an academically respected seminary (he is, after all, a moron), nor would his lazy ass want to. 

I promise legitimate seminaries don't recruit "cool kids" to make seminary seem cool to others. They recruit spiritually motivated & focused, serious students who have already excelled academically at top institutions. 

Masters seminary is the seminary you go to when you're too much of a coward to challenge your faith. It is immersion in an echo chamber of douchebag. It isn't even accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada. 

Can you tell this issue grinds my gears?

I have to say that's some Protestant churches.  Many like Methodist, Episcopalian, and some Presbyterian churches especially older ones are well decorated, many have exceptional stained glass windows, and don't fit the sterile, utilitarian view.  

The mega churches especially non-denominational ones might as well be any generic theater or auditorium.  

My Episcopalian church is full Gothic, flying buttresses and stained glass and all. It is gorgeous.

 It’s a consecrated sanctuary to me and the members because it is where we congregate to hear the word of God from an ordained minister.  But I’m also of the mindset that church is a verb and a noun. 

My only quibble here is that "consecrated" has a specific meaning, and usually a specific ritual that makes it a sacred, holy place. When a church closes, it must be "deconsecrated" and made secular again. BUT my experience of it is from Catholic, Episcopalian, and other high church traditions. I believe it is common in protestant churches to have them officially consecrated. I love your definition, though. Jesus said wherever two or more gather in my name, I'm with those hep homies. (Tried to Jeremy it up there! :) 

(Random aside: there was a church in NYC that was turned into a nightclub, and I refused to go unless I could find it was properly deconsecrated. I'm not even Catholic! Hell, I'm an atheist, but I couldn't shake the feeling of wrongness. It had been deconsecrated. Crisis averted.)

My first thought was she was wearing those wax teeth that people used to get at the candy store when I was a kid.  However, seeing multiple photos, it appears those are her real teeth.  Too bad.

Evangeline is the only kid in the picture, so either Felicity is off camera with the other children or she's with a sitter and Jinger and Jeremy brought a baby to an adult party.

There is a pandemic still happening. Folks are still getting very sick and/or dying. Pictures like that one really piss me off.

Well, really, is there anything more important -- or intellectual or spiritual or character-building -- than imbuing children with a passion for expensive brand names?

I think not!

This is what's always gotten me. Even if he wanted to move to LA, there are many other seminaries he could have chosen that were not MacArthur's. I know back in the day people argued that Jeremy didn't really share his in-laws' beliefs or MacArthur's (and some may still think that), but I think the fact he sought this place out and remains there tells us all we need to know about Jeremy and his beliefs.

Yep, he totally sought it out.

We saw him buzzing around MacArthur and posting about him and various of his acolytes for quite a while before he even applied to the long-distance program. It was a very active choice on his part.

And once he was in the distance-learning part then he started sucking up even harder. Trying -- and succeeding -- to go there not just for a degree but specifically to become MacArthur's best boy. This place clearly appealed to him more than any other. And he was spending so much time and energy on JM and people who follow the same beliefs that there's no way Jer didn't know what those beliefs are. They don't make any secret of it. 

And since he got in, he seems to have been networking pretty exclusively with other MacArthur acolytes and pals, young and old. In his mind, he in no way "settled" for something. This seminary and the group that love it were clearly top of the line for Jer -- really the only choice he even considered, it looked like. Like Nike or cake mix with gold in it. 😁

But I think @Lady Jane pointed to the crux of the matter. This is not a seminary where you go to challenge your faith....

And that's right....It's a seminary where challenging your faith is considered to be immoral. It's a place where you learn what the patriarchy was set up to promote and you prepare to vigorously promote it. And that's obviously what Jer wanted -- wanted it without a hint of any cracks in that armor.....

That's why they have to try to put younger faces out on social media and such -- what they're selling is totally the past. Not something where questions about the future or even about the present are permitted. That makes hard to attract younger people, so they're trying every gimmick they can come up with. Because they absolutely reject the notion that questioning or rethinking anything is acceptable........Jer may or may not have swallowed exactly the same beliefs as the Duggs and Gothard....but it's close. Equally misogynistic, for example.

I'm assuming Felicity was there and maybe with some other kids in a different room? Jeremy and Jinger have no qualms about dumping their kids on the church ladies, so it seems out of character to bring the baby along but leave the other behind. You'd think it would either be both or nothing.

Does Jeremy “fit”?

Jer is morphing into Michael Jackson, with the kids always wearing masks.  And not even protective masks.  What a jackass.

[BetyBee]

The sweet Vuolo children look creepy in those masks. Probably because of the mystery surrounding their actual faces these days.

ETA - It's been pointed out that these are stickers added later, not masks. I still feel that they make the pics look creepy.

The kids costumes were “designed”?  Hey, I am also a designer.  The stay-at-home mom couldn’t have figured that out? 

[Bewitched]

The kids aren't wearing masks in the Halloween pictures.  Jinger simply photoshopped a sticker/emoji on their faces before posting the pic.  I see it done all the time when people don't have permission to post photos of other people's children.  When it's your own children, its just stupid.

They are not wearing masks. They are stickers that have been added digitally before posting the pictures to social media to obscure their faces. There are many celebrities that do similar, Kristen Bell and Lin-Manuel Miranda are a few examples. 

I applaud them for taking some steps to protect their kids. They are damned if they do, damned if they don't when it comes to pictures. If they never posted pictures of the kids people would be upset about that as well.

The sad thing is, the credit is given to a guy who seems to be a real artist.

Felicity has a headband with felt ears and regular clothes. The ears are something every mom of a trick-or-treater has made.

Evie Jo's dress is cute, but again something any parent could do.

Yeah, given the upcoming shit-show that's about to unfold with Pest, I can't blame them. I certainly wouldn't want my kids' pictures tacked onto articles about Josh's CSA charges. Even if they're keeping the girls off social media (or their faces at least) for virtue signaling purposes, it's still not a bad thing.

wow - learn something new everyday

I grew up in a staunch missouri synod lutheran household. our church did re enactments of the nailing up of the 95 theses on the church door every year. never have I heard of a "reformation party" to replace the evils of halloween.

but in a church where women could hold no position, women could never even step on the altar platform (except to set up/clean up the sacraments) we kids always did trick or treating. My dad was among the elders and even he was known to drink a beer or two when taking us out "begging".

that there are reformation party ideas easily found online makes me laugh. nothing there has a winnie the pooh or tigger.

I feel super old watching all these proceedings. In the churches I went to as a kid in the 90s, there was no Halloween or Reformation Party.

If they want to do Halloween, there's nothing wrong with it. Just own it and do Halloween instead of being coy about it.

The Felicity-Evangeline picture is right out of a horror movie.  The stickers are just too weird not to look full-on creepy there, in my opinion.. Especially with Felicity's lens-created giant feet and the fact that Evangeline's sticker isn't a face but a pot. 

I think they should have just posted the family photo by itself. Not all your pictures are worth posting. I wouldn't want to make my kids look creepy. We can see their costumes in the other photo.

They're writing a second book - The Hope We Hold For Our Children.

It will be all about the struggles young parents walk through during this season of life. They will sell bibs and caps with the logo.

Next year Lissy will write her own book - The Hope My Parents Taught Me, followed by Evy Jo's book - The Hope My Parents Taught Me Too.

I'm guessing pregnancy announcement. Nobody gives a shit about anything else.
