    As we learn to have a deeper love for ourselves and others, where do we stand when it comes to modesty?

  • Episode 3: Mission Stigmas

    Is it better to go on a mission because you're "supposed" to or better to stay home? What about when you don't feel worthy? We are here to have the hard talk about the shame around not going on a mission or even coming home early. You get to hear me make up a word-"exqualified" as I tried to say disqualified and excluded at the same time. Whether you went on a mission or not, this episode is definitely for you!

  • Introduction

    Welcome to the BECOMING ONE Podcast. A podcast that really dives into the hard conversations that maybe shouldn't actually be so hard to have. I believe the more vulnerable we can be for ourselves, the more we can belong to ourselves and to eachother. Lets put the work in to really understand each-other and to truly become one.

About Becoming One

From the publisher's feed

As Christians we try out best to become like Christ. In doing so, we have created a culture where we may have lost a part of the true meaning of the gospel. We need to ask ourselves: are we living the culture or are we living the gospel? The more we are willing to have open conversations and really listen to others, within or outside of the church, we develop more of a capacity to "become one."
