beauty, beauty standards, and the case for modesty (with Roni Shasamni)
Roni is BACK to discuss one of her favorite topics! Beauty is a deceptively simple word that we use all the time for a lot of different things. On this episode we start by defining beauty, how beauty is different from attractiveness, where beauty standards come from, and why modesty isn't just about personal comfort or expression.Support on Patreon: patreon.com/joeyandfriendsElmer the Patchwork Elephant

should Christians listen to Taylor Swift? (with Tim Schoen and Kate Perry)
Tim and Kate join me to discuss the entertainment and media we consume as Christians.

church hurt (with Sammie James)
As I start a new season of the podcast, I'm excited to have my wife with me to share her story of being part of an unhealthy church, getting pushed out of that church, and how she overcame the shame and loneliness that followed. This is the first episode in what will be an ongoing series where we openly discuss church-related struggles, shedding light on why they happen, and how God can bring redemption in their wake.Support on Patreon: patreon.com/joeyandfriends
