Dating and marriage has--for most of human history-- been more about power than about love. Maybe it still is! Are your dating preferences about your values, or are they about accumulating power? In this episode, Megan and Steven discuss the origins of dating power dynamics, and how as Christians we're called to choose partners who will make us conduits of Christ's power, not hoarders of power for our own use.

The numbers don't lie, and sometimes the numbers of how many available men there are compared to available women feel staggering. In this episode, Steven and Megan chat a bit about the numbers and why God has been reminding them that He's the one in control of what comes next.

If you've ever been 'let down gently' by a dating prospect, then you know two things: it's not actually 'gentle,' and it often feels dishonest. You may have even experienced that a few times, and heard the same reasons repeated over and over. In this episode, Steven and Megan discuss the most common reasons singles give for why they want to stop talking, and how you can actually let someone down in an honest, respectful, and authentic way.

If your last season of dating was in the 1980's, 1990's, or early 2000's, then today's dating landscape probably looks like the surface of Mars. Technology now mediates our early dating interactions, and you need to be aware of how to navigate in this brave, new world of social media scams and difficult-to-interpret emojis. In this episode, Steven and Megan discuss the massive cultural changes that have taken place since the late 90's in terms of where we date and how we communicate, and how people of different generations can adapt to the new landscape and build thriving connections. 

(Quick aside): This episode has some background noise and is occasionally interrupted by a beeping baby monitor; thanks for your patience.

So you've met someone, and they seem really interested in a relationship! But then you suddenly learn that they're talking to other people at the same time. Should the 'talking' relationship be exclusive? In this episode, Megan and Steven discuss this common dating headache and provide some suggestions for how to address it. Spoiler that will surprise no one: clear communication wins every time.

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.
