- Relationships are struggling more than ever, and I honestly believe a lot of what culture tells us about love and marriage is leading us in the wrong direction. In this episode, I'm sharing some of the biggest reasons I think relationships fail today—from comparing ourselves to social media, to expecting marriage to fulfill us, to letting outside voices influence our relationships more than God's Word.
I also talk about what the Bible says about marriage, why prayer and community matter so much, how comparison steals joy, and practical ways to build a marriage that actually lasts. Whether you're single, dating, engaged, or married, my hope is that this conversation encourages you to pursue God's design for relationships over the world's.

2026-07-17 | 31 min.Kindness is more than being nice—and it’s definitely not weakness. In this episode of our Fruit of the Spirit series, we’re diving into what biblical kindness really looks like and how the kindness of God should transform the way we treat the people around us.
We talk about the difference between kindness and people-pleasing, why kindness sometimes requires telling the truth, how to respond when people are difficult to love, and why the people closest to us should experience our kindness too. We also unpack how Jesus modeled kindness without compromising truth or boundaries—and how small, intentional acts of kindness can have a much bigger impact than we realize.
If you want to become more like Jesus in the way you speak, respond, love, and serve others, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we talk about:
What biblical kindness actually means
Why God’s kindness is the foundation for our kindness
The difference between being kind and being “nice”
Showing kindness when it’s inconvenient or undeserved
How our words and tone can reflect Jesus
Why kindness doesn’t mean having no boundaries
Being kind without expecting anything in return
Practical ways to intentionally choose kindness every day
Key Scriptures: Galatians 5:22–23, Romans 2:4, Ephesians 4:32, Colossians 3:12, Luke 6:35, Proverbs 31:26

Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices- This week, Kaleb and I are diving into turbulent waters and talking parenting. 😅 We're sharing our current thoughts (emphasis on current!) about homeschooling vs. public school, gentle parenting, discipline, spanking, and all the things we've been learning now that we're parents ourselves.
We definitely don't have all the answers, and we're the first to admit that these opinions could change as Duke grows. Our hope isn't to convince anyone that our way is the only way, but to have an honest conversation about what we're wrestling through, what we've learned from our own childhoods, and why we believe parenting starts with grace, communication, and pointing our kids to Jesus. We also chat about my new Ponyflo hat collection (finally!!), screen time, and why parenting has made us apologize to every parent we ever judged. 😂

In today's episode, I'm sharing my personal journey with chin filler, why I ultimately decided to dissolve it, and how God used that experience to challenge my heart. We'll talk through the pros, the cons, and what Scripture says about beauty, identity, comparison, and contentment.
This isn't an episode meant to shame anyone. Instead, my hope is that we learn how to bring every decision—even cosmetic ones—before the Lord and ask the deeper questions about our motives and where we're finding our worth.
Whether you've had Botox, are considering cosmetic procedures, or simply wrestle with comparison and beauty standards, I hope this conversation encourages you to root your identity in Christ above all else.

2026-06-30 | 49 min.Today's episode is basically us sitting down and shooting the sheesh 😂 We’re talking all about the FIFA World Cup, why it unexpectedly gave us so much hope, and how meeting people from all over the world reminded us that we probably have way more in common than we think.
We also dive into our recent Toy Story marathon (yes... Kaleb might officially be becoming a Disney adult 😂), why movies don't feel the same anymore, and this strange feeling that our generation is constantly chasing nostalgia. From malls and movie theaters to VHS tapes and Saturday morning cartoons—we're unpacking why those memories still hit so deeply.
We also share our thoughts on today's media, reality TV, Love Island, social media, and how what we consume really does shape our hearts, minds, and relationships. As Christians, we want to be intentional about protecting our peace, raising our future kids well, and remembering that even when we disagree with people, we're still called to love our neighbors.
Whether you're here for World Cup stories, Toy Story nostalgia, or just a fun conversation about culture and faith, we're so glad you're hanging out with us today. 🤍
