Table for Two

What really happens in a pastor's house the night before church? Spoiler alert: it's not always peaceful prayer and glowing halos.

In this episode, Jason and Nicole pull back the curtain on what Saturday nights and Sunday mornings look like when you're raising kids, leading a church, and still trying to find your sermon notes. From spiritual warfare to missing shoes, marriage tension to last-minute printer failures--this is the unfiltered reality of ministry life.

You'll hear laughter, vulnerability, and whole lot of grace as we talk about:

• Sermon anxiety and sleepless Saturday nights
• Why Sunday mornings are spiritual battle zones
• How to lead while feeling unprepared
• The pressure to perform vs the call to be present
• Finding peace in the chaos

If you've ever cried in the church parking lot, changed a diaper in your Sunday best, or wrestled with doubt on the way to preach--you're not alone. This one's for every ministry family trying to keep it together (and for everyone who thinks we've got it all figured out).

Pull up a chair--we saved you a seat at the table.

Ever felt like you're the only one asking hard spiritual questions? You're not alone—and you’re not wrong for wondering. In this honest and grace-filled episode, Jason and Nicole pull up a chair to tackle some of the most vulnerable questions they’ve been asked (and wish people felt safe enough to ask):

• Why do bad things happen if God is good?
• Is it a sin to feel anxious or depressed?
• What if I don’t feel forgiven, even though I’ve asked?
• How do I parent with faith when I feel like I’m barely holding it together?
• Can I love Jesus but struggle with church people?
• What does healing look like when the pain never fully goes away?

They share real-life stories, practical tools, personal struggles, and the one truth that ties it all together: Grace can carry the weight of your wondering.

Whether you're deconstructing, doubting, or just dog-tired—there's room at this table for you.

What do discipline, biblical parenting, and Frasier all have in common? They're all on the table in this honest, heartfelt, and occasionally hilarious second episode of Red Flags and Revival.

This week, Jason and Nicole respond to a Reddit story about a mom who disciplines her son for laughing at a classmate being bullied—only to have her co-parent question whether she’s being too harsh. What unfolds is a deeper conversation about how grace, discipline, and unity shape the way we raise our kids.

Along the way, we talk about:

• *Why “I’m sorry, but…” isn’t a real apology
• How united parenting builds trust and prevents division
• What the story of Jacob and Esau can teach us about favoritism and fractured families
• Why grace doesn’t mean removing consequences—it means walking through them together

Plus, we finally answer the theological question you didn’t know you had: Do we like big BUTs? (Spoiler: Nope.)

Whether you're raising kids, were a kid once, or just love seeing biblical truth collide with messy reality, this episode is for you.

Does submission in marriage mean someone has to be the boss? This week on Table for Two, Jason and Nicole tackle the infamous "umbrella theology"—you know, the one that says God is in charge, then the husband, then the wife, then the kids, then the dog (probably). But is that really what Scripture teaches?

In this playful yet honest conversation, they explore how Ephesians 5 has been misused to prop up patriarchal systems and what mutual submission actually looks like in real-life relationships. From personal stories to deep biblical insight this episode challenges traditional roles while offering a freeing, grace-filled alternative grounded in love, respect, and equality.

Whether you’ve lived under the umbrella or never heard of it before, pull up a chair. There’s room for you at the table.

Church hurt is real — and for many, it's the reason they’ve walked away from pews, pulpits, and even faith communities altogether. In this episode, Jason and Nicole open a gentle but honest conversation about the damage churches can do, especially when well-meaning people respond with clichés instead of compassion.

🎙️ We unpack common phrases like:

• “No church is perfect.”
• “Just pray about it.”
• “Aren’t you being bitter?”
   … and explain why these responses can make things worse.

👂 Instead, we explore how to respond with presence, empathy, and the love of Christ — and how healing can begin outside the walls of the church.

Whether you’ve experienced church hurt yourself or want to better love someone who has, this episode offers space to listen, process, and hope again.

🛋️ Pull up a chair. There’s room at the table for your story.

How does a guy with corny pickup lines and a woman meet and build a life together?

It's part sitcom, part survival story, and all joy. You'll laugh, shake your head, and maybe believe a little more in second chances and sacred timing.
