    When the World Stopped: COVID, Loss & What Came Next

    In this episode, we reflect on the lasting effects of COVID-19—not only on society, but on our personal lives and relationships. We talk honestly about how the pandemic changed the way we connect, work, grieve, and care for our mental health. We also share about personal loss during the pandemic and make room for the grief that many people are still carrying. This is a thoughtful conversation about resilience, remembrance, healing, and the ways COVID continues to shape the world around us.

    Behind the Mask: The Stress We Hide

    In this episode, we talk honestly about carrying stress, deep-rooted exhaustion, and the weight that builds when life feels overwhelming. Through a Christian perspective, we explore how God meets us in our weariness—not with shame or pressure, but with rest, comfort, and renewed strength. Whether you’re feeling emotionally drained, spiritually tired, anxious about the future, or simply worn down by the demands of daily life, this conversation is a reminder that you do not have to carry it all alone. We share encouragement, Scripture-centered reflections, and practical ways to bring your stress to God, find peace in His presence, and take one faithful step at a time.

    God Didn't Call Us To Be Comfortable

    In this episode, we talk honestly about the discomfort that can come with following God. Christianity isn’t always meant to feel safe or familiar—sometimes God calls us beyond what we know so He can grow our faith, deepen our trust, and expand our purpose. We share our own experience of feeling called to move, the uncertainty and stretching that came with saying yes, and what God has been doing in our lives since we chose to listen. If you are in a season where God may be asking you to leave comfort behind, this conversation is an encouragement to trust that His call is never without purpose.

    Hardly R Rated: Faith, Marriage, Intimacy & the Forty-Something Years

    n this episode, we have an honest, faith-rooted conversation about marriage, intimacy, love, and what it means to keep a relationship alive through midlife. It’s hardly R-rated—we discuss intimacy and sex without focusing on the act itself, while exploring why these topics can still make us blush and how society has shaped the way we talk about them. We also reflect on what marriage can look like in your forties: the changes, the challenges, the laughter, and the intentional choices that help couples stay connected. From protecting emotional closeness to navigating mental health, seasons of disconnection, and even conversations around divorce, we approach it all with honesty, grace, and a Christian-based perspective. Stick around to the end as we answer listener questions. Keywords: marriage, intimacy, love, sex, Christian marriage, faith-based relationships, divorce, midlife marriage, marriage in your forties, mental health, emotional intimacy, relationship advice, communication, listener questions, keeping marriage alive

    After the Loss: Learning to Live With Grief

    The funeral is over, everyone goes home, and then comes the part nobody prepares you for—the aftermath of loss. We talk about the unexpected parts of the grief journey, the loneliness, the triggers, and learning how to live with grief while moving forward. We also talk about how to support someone who is grieving—what they really need and what they don’t. And through all of it, we talk about God, faith, and healing. Because grief doesn’t mean you’ve lost your faith. Sometimes it’s right in the middle of the pain that you discover just how close God really is. Real grief. Real loss. Real faith. And the hope that comes through it all.

    The Grief before death: When watching someone decline becomes its own kind of trauma.

    We are starting a series on grief.  I always knew I wanted to talk about grief when we started the podcast but couldn't find the right time.  Looking back, there were many reasons God wasn't allowing us to.  This week, the door was swung wide open again when April passed away.  Grief has so many parts to it and opens up a lot of wounds to navigate.  Today we are starting by talking about what grief looks like when you start losing someone before they are lost.

    April

    April Hardy, A wife and mother of two.  A child of god.  Diagnosed with stage 4 cancer a year ago has been on a journey of fighting until last Monday, when she suffered a stroke.  We were scheduled to have her on the podcast and since we cannot at this time we cannot; we wanted to be her voice.

    The Struggle is Real

    On this episode, we decided to take a break from our series on Fruit of the Spirit, and instead dive into our week and see where the conversation takes us.  We talk about back-to-school, handling change, how our childhood affects our home prayer life, and even touch on the Lindsay Clancy trial.  We go down some rabbit holes that will allow you to get to know us better, and may even speak to you where you're at in life.
