    The Date-A On Debt, Hobbies, and Self-Perception

    We all need a pick-me-up sometimes, and Megan gets that by messing around with spreadsheets. So humor her along with Steven as they dive into some never-before-explored data collected from 700+ Synchrony Survey respondents! These data answer the questions: “Who carries more debt—men or women?” “What do men/women spend most of their free time doing?” and “What positive qualities do men or women most often use to describe themselves?” Perhaps, by extension, these things actually describe the partners they’re looking for.

    Ep. 117 Our Dating Culture “Icks”

    We try to keep things positive around here, but sometimes we just have to complain a little.

    Ep. 115 Voicemail Questions: Chaperones and Men Who Don't Want Kids?

    When is it safe to stop taking chaperones on your dates? Are there Apostolic men who have thought hard about having children, and some who may have even decided...not to? In this heavily caffeinated and relatively unfiltered episode, Megan and Steven tackle these questions (stopping for a few side quests on the history of courtship, female fertility, and even some car shopping suggestions).  Take the Dating Barriers Course here: https://www.synchronyproject.com/offers/RzdaL4Sf Have a dating question that you'd like our advice on?

    Ep. 113 Doctrine vs. Culture Part 3: How Did We Get Here?

    Are today's women different than women in the past? In Part 1 and 2 of our "Doctrine vs. Culture" series, we've discussed how Apostolic dating culture should be aligned with scripture and not with unhealthy aspects of worldly culture, and also how the discourses we're surrounded by shape our understanding of each other and behavior towards potential partners. In this next installment, Megan and Steven dive into the history of the male/female relationship dynamic, starting from the birth of "Western" culture until now.  Take the Dating Barriers Course here: https://www.synchronyproject.com/offers/RzdaL4Sf Have a dating question that you'd like our advice on?

    Ep. 112 Doctrine vs. Culture Part 2: Dating Discourses

    In this solo episode, Megan gives a primer on what a "discourse" is, and why the ones you're part of may be contributing directly to your singleness.

    Ep. 110 Doctrine vs. Culture, and Decade-Old Messages in a Bottle

    When we say "Apostolic culture," what do we mean, and how is it related to doctrine? In this episode, we start the process of unpacking where our doctrine and culture overlap, and sometimes even collide, in our daily practices. Also, it's Steven and Megan's 10 year anniversary! On this episode, they share some special messages from their wedding guests (that they've never even read before). Have a dating question that you'd like our advice on?
