"I just was like genuinely telling God that I love my children and help me be strong. Not every it was like nothing. It was like my biggest fear and that just went away cuz my wife was such an angel, man."
After being deplatformed, anonymous reports brought Child Protective Services to Benjamin's door, triggering what he describes as a genuine prayer moment confronting his deepest fear. His wife helped him reframe the situation by simply affirming he was a good father, which Benjamin says freed him from the fear that authorities could arbitrarily take his children. He came to see his role as being the best guardian possible while recognizing the children ultimately belong to God.
