  • Ep. 116 Doctrine vs. Culture Part 4: Feminism

    "Feminism has ruined dating!" We hear this (or rather, read it in the comments) on a regular basis. Is it true? What is feminism, and why should Apostolics care about defining it more clearly? In this episode, Megan and Steven dive into this dicey topic; wish them luck.

  • Ep. 115 Voicemail Questions: Chaperones and Men Who Don't Want Kids?

    When is it safe to stop taking chaperones on your dates? Are there Apostolic men who have thought hard about having children, and some who may have even decided...not to? In this heavily caffeinated and relatively unfiltered episode, Megan and Steven tackle these questions (stopping for a few side quests on the history of courtship, female fertility, and even some car shopping suggestions).

  • Ep. 113 Doctrine vs. Culture Part 3: How Did We Get Here?

    Are today's women different than women in the past? In Part 1 and 2 of our "Doctrine vs. Culture" series, we've discussed how Apostolic dating culture should be aligned with scripture and not with unhealthy aspects of worldly culture, and also how the discourses we're surrounded by shape our understanding of each other and behavior towards potential partners. In this next installment, Megan and Steven dive into the history of the male/female relationship dynamic, starting from the birth of "Western" culture until now.

  • Ep. 112 Doctrine vs. Culture Part 2: Dating Discourses

    In this solo episode, Megan gives a primer on what a "discourse" is, and why the ones you're part of may be contributing directly to your singleness. If you haven't listened to the episode from a couple of weeks ago, make sure you give it a listen so this next episode makes sense!

  • Ep. 111 Voicemail Questions: Avoiding Divorce, Breakup Support, Death by Bug

    We're back with more of your voicemail questions, and this week we're talking about some heavy topics. How do you heal a generational curse of divorce when that is all you've seen in your family? How should friends support singles who are experiencing a break-up? There's a lot to cover here, but it's not all gloom and despair, thanks to some great musical interruptions and Megan nearly being killed by a bug.

  • Ep. 110 Doctrine vs. Culture, and Decade-Old Messages in a Bottle

    When we say "Apostolic culture," what do we mean, and how is it related to doctrine? In this episode, we start the process of unpacking where our doctrine and culture overlap, and sometimes even collide, in our daily practices. Also, it's Steven and Megan's 10 year anniversary! On this episode, they share some special messages from their wedding guests (that they've never even read before).

  • Ep. 108 Restoration

    The dating landscape can feel bleak, especially given the challenges of the gender disparity in the church. But these challenges don't surprise God. In this short solo episode, Megan offers a brief devotional to encourage you that God has a plan to restore, even when the odds are against you.
