Host Amy has been deep-diving into Ephesians 4 and the spiritual gifts outlined by Paul. We wanted to bring her new obsession with all things Ephesians 4 to a two-part episode, in which we discuss what to do with this list, how we feel about personality tests, and if we can demystify spiritual gifts.

As moms who love Jesus and vote for freedom and life, where do we stand on the current conflict in Israel? Do we fault Israel for their part in the conflict? Do we blame the Palestinians? Or is Hamas the one that's driving all the pain and horror?

It's season 2, and we're BACK! To open up this season, and hit some spooky vibes, we're discussing a question that Amy's four-year-old daughter asked: does God love Satan? Since Satan is evil, can God love Satan? And since God created him, what kind of love and compassion might he have for his fallen creature?

In our first Culture Wars episode we dove into the deep end, divulging our views and opinions on politics and culture. But, more importantly, we framed our belief that far above politics and any allegiance to America is our desire to seek first the Kingdom of God. How we jump into culture wars and to what extent is still up for debate. And we’re excited to keep the conversation going!

You Are What You Love

In honor of Father's Day, we've asked the husbands to bring their unique perspective to parenting that moms don’t always understand. Especially when it comes to parenting boys versus girls. Being a Christ-centered father is not always easy, and knowing how to parent our sons and our daughters comes with its own challenges.

The culture wars in America have become cutthroat over the last few years. And, today they are as hot as ever. We’re entering into the Pride month of June with plenty of intense news stories to fuel division and anger on either side of the aisle. As Christians, we have to ask: what part are we supposed to play in all of this? If we’re conservative, then should we be jumping into the war and if we do…. Will it even work?

Magatte Wade on How Black Lives Truly Matter

You’ve probably heard that controlling your inner dialogue is important. What we think affects what we say and do, and it matters. But, what happens when the truth of what’s real around you creates beliefs and faith that don’t align with God’s future kingdom? Are we unintentionally building faith around things that are not of Jesus and putting our trust in realities that only create more brokenness?
