  • “In God We Trust...”

    Let's talk about it!

    Often times I hear “America was built to be a Christian nation and this is why this policy should/shouldn’t be…” This episode will address how we as Christians through politics, specifically in America, without being tone-deaf and ignorant yet still keeping God 1’st and in the center of it all. 

    This subject matter is too diverse, especially in what I want to cover, that this episode is the first of a series of sorts. Take it as an interlude between each episode or an introduction into what the content of the next episode will be centered towards. 

    I am excited to dive into these discussions because honestly, I usually feel like my thoughts, philosophy, & conclusions are different from many people I know. Not only in for secular arena's or other religions but also within my own faith. Diversity in thought is something I'm an advocate for, I don't want everyone around me to think the same; I personally believe, if I cannot be challenged in my conclusions how do I know if they are true? That is something my father instilled in me though, I was never allowed to just believe something for the sake of it, I had to logically figure out why I believe what I believe & be prepared to be wrong. Growth is a beautiful place to get to in ANY discussion. So, I could continue talking about my love for these things over & over but honestly let's get into the questions for today: 

    • Is there a specific place for a Christian in the two-party American system?
    • Should we encourage the government to make laws and policies that are strictly Christian?
    • 28 min
    • Forgiveness
      What is happening guys, missed me?
      First, let's get through some church announcements: 
      After the drop in this episode, I will be taking a short hiatus. I'll be doing my annual new year preparation & in that, I'll also be planning things for Maia Moments. Head on over to my blog though, I have a feeling I'll be probably be writing some new things there we will be resuming February 2, 2020!
      Please leave a review of Maia Moments podcast on your prospective streaming platforms, especially my apple podcast users! Also please share, share, share! Send an episode to a friend, post about us on your Instagram/Twitter & follow us @maiamoments
      Now that we've covered that let us get into today's episode. By the title you know we're discussing forgiveness & specifically what biblical forgiveness looks like. I have the co-founder of Seven x Seventy, a clothing brand with the mission of spreading forgiveness, Maurice Victor on to share why forgiveness is important to him. 
      Here are the questions & links related to this episode: 
      Article Maurice references throughout the episode: https://www.ibelieve.com/relationships/7-myths-we-have-about-forgiveness-and-what-biblical-forgiveness-really-looks-like.html
      What does biblical forgiveness look like?
      Is everything a person does meant to be forgiven?
      How does forgiveness & righteous judgment co-exist?
      Brandt Jean's display of forgiveness to Amber Guyger, the convicted murder of his older brother. 
      Why did Maurice & Zion create seven x seventy? 
      What about revenge? How do we ensure people get "what they deserve " if we as people are so forgiving? 
      That is all for this episode, love y'all have a Merry Christmas & Happy New Years! See you in the new year 💛

    • Shame: Purity Culture

      Hi everyone, 

      Today I have a friend of mine that I am so grateful to know, Bethany Adams. We will be discussing purity culture & sex as we understand it to be for Christians:

      • What does the Bible say about sex?
      • What is purity culture? Who does it primarily affect? Is the culture effective in its goals?
      • My own struggles with pornography since I was exposed to it at 12 years old
      • Our view of sex in a relationship (as virgins) 
      • Has church culture become better with conversing & educating people about sex?
      • I felt the need to be transparent in my own struggles in pursuit of purity & how my life has changed as a result of telling others about my struggles. 

        I pray this episode helps anyone who may be suffering from similar struggles & have never heard anyone talk about these things. Just know there is NOTHING that can separate you from the love of God. We must first acknowledge there is a problem to be able to fix it. Call on God, ask for forgiveness, forgive yourself & walk in the freedom Jesus Christ has given each of us. 

        A bonus to this episode is our discussion in T.I.'s recent insight into his approach to trying to keep his daughter pure. Was his approach appropriate? Does it seem he is just as adamant about purity to all his children or just is this approach because Dejah is a woman? Why did he feel comfortable telling the public such a private thing about his daughter's sexuality?

        Love you all & see you in the next episode!

This is a special episode because we're gonna be talking about romantic relationships and this will be airing on our 1 year anniversary. This wasn't planned like this it just happened. I don't believe in coincidences though so I'm glad it's happening when it supposed to how it's supposed to. We'll be discussing: 

          • What have we learned about ourselves since being in a relationship?
          • How being in a relationship with God affects our relationship with one another? 
          • How can social media impact a relationship (negatively)?
          • Is privacy key in a relationship? 
          • Amongst a host of other things so get comfortable because this is a long one whew

          • "Just Do It!"
            Hi guys!
            Welcome to the first episode hehe. Today I'm gonna talk about why and how I started this podcast. I've wanted to start one for about 4 years now and made the decision to just do it.
            The story also goes hand in hand with procrastinating or doubting yourself. I hope I can help someone else do exactly what the title says.
