    Deconstruction Isn't a Dirty Word

    What if asking hard questions about your faith isn't rebellion, but a path toward deeper trust in Jesus? In this honest and hope-filled episode, Jason and Nicole unpack what "deconstruction" really means, why it is not a dirty word, and how it can lead to a stronger, more authentic walk with God. From small-town church politics to generational gaps, cultural Christianity, and personal convictions, they address the real reasons people in Appalachia (and beyond) rethink their faith. Along the way, they share personal stories, biblical insights, and practical encouragement for those who are wrestling and for those walking alongside them. Highlights include: Why deconstruction can be a healthy, biblical processHow personal convictions can harm when forced on othersCommon cultural and church experiences that spark deconstructionBiblical examples of "holy deconstruction" from Jesus, the prophets, and the disciplesEncouragement for rebuilding faith on the true foundation--JesusWhether you're in the middle of deconstruction, curious about it, or skeptical, this episode offers grace, perspective, and the reminder that the deepest worship often comes with the deepest wrestling.

    Red Flags and Revival: Counseling a Reddit Story (Part 2)

    What do discipline, biblical parenting, and Frasier all have in common? They're all on the table in this honest, heartfelt, and occasionally hilarious second episode of Red Flags and Revival. This week, Jason and Nicole respond to a Reddit story about a mom who disciplines her son for laughing at a classmate being bullied—only to have her co-parent question whether she’s being too harsh. What unfolds is a deeper conversation about how grace, discipline, and unity shape the way we raise our kids. Along the way, we talk about: *Why “I’m sorry, but…” isn’t a real apologyHow united parenting builds trust and prevents divisionWhat the story of Jacob and Esau can teach us about favoritism and fractured familiesWhy grace doesn’t mean removing consequences—it means walking through them together Plus, we finally answer the theological question you didn’t know you had: Do we like big BUTs? (Spoiler: Nope.) Whether you're raising kids, were a kid once, or just love seeing biblical truth collide with messy reality, this episode is for you. 🎧 Pull up a chair—there’s room at the table.
