    episode 009 - fostering, adopting and walking through infertility, with Lauren McAfee

    Welcome back to Wholeheartedly, Her! Today, host Laura Pryor had an open and honest conversation with her friend Lauren McAfee. Lauren wears many hats - wife, mom, author, PhD candidate, founder and visionary of "Stand for Life", Ministry Director for Ministry Investments at Hobby Lobby and former Curator, Artifact Collection Manager and Director of Community Engagement for Museum of the Bible in Washington DC. Whew. That was a lot to get through 😂 All that being said - Lauren and I could've talked for *hours* about *literally everything* because she is knowledgable about so much, but we focused on her journey through foster care, adoptions and infertility. Our conversation was so truth-filled and life-giving, and I hope it blesses you as much as it blessed me.

    episode 007 - let's talk about purity culture, with Brooke Larimore

    Welcome back to the podcast! In this episode, I was joined by my dear friend Brooke Larimore to discuss the nitty gritty of purity culture. Purity culture is a very divisive topic within the Christian community, so we wanted to shed light on how this topic affected us personally. If discussions about purity culture or sexual harassment or assault are something that triggers you, feel free to sit this one out. However, if you do listen, we hope you take away some encouragement and hope and are reminded that there is grace in the love of Jesus.
