In last week's episode, we talked about the 'sinkhole' swallowing Apostolic men and why we should be paying attention to it. In this episode, Megan and Steven discuss why that gap is so difficult to close with traditional approaches to Men's Ministry, and what they're doing to bridge it.

Where have all the "good men" gone? We've been wrestling with this question for two years, and frankly we didn't want to believe that there was the massive gender disparity in committed Apostolics that people were telling us was there. In this episode, Megan and Steven correct some of their failed demographic assumptions and visualize a hypothesis that they think is pulling our future husbands, fathers, and leaders from the Church, sometimes while they are still boys.

If you've battled through difficult emotions around weight and health, and their relationship to your dating life, this one is for you. In this episode, Megan sits down with Certified Nutrition Coach Liv Hill, who after losing over 150lbs naturally a decade ago has dedicated her energies toward serving the Church by bettering the health of its people. The goal of this podcast is NOT to push anyone to lose weight, nor does it provide medical or nutritional guidance for any individuals; you should discuss any changes to your diet with your healthcare provider. Instead, this chat focuses on why taking control of your health as a Single person can change the landscape of your entire life, not just your love life.

Please note: This episode will cover topics suited to adult audiences, including pornography, sexuality, and addiction.

This is our second episode containing a frank discussion about pornography addiction and its impact on dating and marriage in the church. Our goal here is twofold: we want people who are struggling with pornography addiction to feel seen and have hope, and we want those who have not been exposed to pornography to develop a compassionate outlook on this addiction, without diminishing the reality that it's one of the most destructive tools used by the Enemy to keep people lonely. We hope this helps you, and we ask that you approach this conversation respectfully and with your 'spiritual ears' wide open.

Erik and Stephanie met over a Synchrony call and felt an immediate connection, but that didn't mean that the road to forever would be smooth. Now, months into their new marriage, Megan and Steven sit with them to hear about how God crafted their story and helped them overcome the challenges that came with the big changes he had in store for them.

If you're excluding dating partners based on this criteria, you may be keeping yourself from great opportunities and putting words in the mouth of God. In this episode, Megan and Steven discuss one of the ways that people may be preventing God from writing a better love story than they could have envisioned.

We've been hand-selecting potential partners for Apostolic singles for over two years now, but how does it actually work? Is the matching process driven by an algorithm, or by AI? How do we know what to match on in the first place? In this episode, Steven and Megan dive into the nitty gritty of how we collect the data from each client to determine who should match with who.
