What Are You Doing?

In this episode of What Are You Doing?, things get a little personal… and a lot funny.

Sarah claims she’s been “catching strays” all season long, so naturally, we had to go back and revisit it all. We walk through every episode of Season 5, remembering the moments, the messages, and yes—the accidental shots fired along the way.

This episode is part recap, part reflection, and part laughter as we look back on what God has been saying, what stuck with us, and what we might have missed the first time around.

If you’ve been with us this season, this is a fun and meaningful way to tie it all together. If you haven’t—this might just catch you up (and maybe catch a stray or two yourself).

Real talk. Real laughs. Real reflection.

What are you doing?

In this episode of What Are You Doing?, Aaron and Sarah take a look back at some of the moments when Aaron has said things from the stage that might have been… slightly inappropriate. 

Preaching every week means you’re bound to say something that makes the room go quiet, makes people laugh nervously, or makes you wonder later, “Did I really just say that?”

From honest illustrations to moments that probably pushed the line a little too far, this episode reflects on the tension between being real, being pastoral, and sometimes realizing that not every thought needs a microphone.

It’s funny, reflective, and a reminder that when you’re speaking every week… something slightly inappropriate is bound to slip out. 🎙️

In this episode, Aaron and Sarah dive into a conversation that many people are thinking about but few know how to talk about well—mental health. The phrase “mentally ill” gets thrown around a lot in our culture today, but what do we actually mean when we say it?

With their usual honesty, humor, and curiosity, Aaron and Sarah wrestle with the tension.

This conversation isn’t about easy answers—it’s about learning how to think, care, and talk about mental health with more wisdom, compassion, and clarity.

Expect thoughtful moments, some laughs, and a conversation that might challenge the way you think about what it means to be “mentally ill.”

In this episode, Yusef joins Aaron and Sarah, and from the outside it feels… obviously mismatched. Different backgrounds. Different instincts. Different stories. Different energy. The kind of trio that makes people tilt their head and say, “Wait… how are you all friends?”

And yet.

Some of the most unlikely friendships become the most meaningful.
Some of the people who don’t look like they fit end up shaping you the most.

This conversation is funny, honest, and surprisingly deep.

Sometimes the most obviously mismatched people are exactly the right match.

In this episode, Sarah skips the small talk and cannonballs straight into the deep end.

No warm-up laps. No shallow end theology. No polite transitions.

We talk about what it actually means to be deeply human not the curated version, not the platform version, not the “I’m fine” version —but the honest, complicated, embodied, sometimes uncomfortable version.

We wrestle with grief, joy, doubt, faith, identity, and the parts of ourselves we usually try to manage or hide. What does it mean to follow Jesus without pretending you’re less human? What does it look like to hold conviction and vulnerability at the same time?

Sarah gets serious quick.
We try to keep up.
And somewhere in the middle of it, we find grace.

This one isn’t surface-level.
It’s deeply human.

This episode is a masterclass in social discomfort.

Sarah recounts the date where a grown man confidently chose to sit on the same side of the table. Not a corner café bench. A regular table. Two adults. One side. No warning.

And then we relive the unforgettable moments when people approached with deep sincerity… to apologize for hating you for years.

We laugh about the intensity of human interaction, the drama we didn’t ask for, and the strange holy ground of awkwardness.

Because sometimes what feels simply unacceptable…
becomes the story you tell forever and learn from.

What if the story we were promised isn’t the story we’re actually living?

In this episode, Aaron and Sarah talk about happily never after—the quiet unraveling of expectations, the myths we inherited about life, faith, marriage, leadership, and calling, and the awkward (often funny) moments when reality doesn’t follow the script.

f you’ve ever thought, “This isn’t how I thought it would go,” this episode is for you.

Because sometimes the good news isn’t happily ever after…
It’s discovering grace in the middle of happily never after.

In this episode, Sarah and Aaron share a moment that could only happen on an ordinary walk with Sarah belting out a song without thinking, only to realize the neighbors heard it all. What starts as a funny, slightly awkward moment turns into a surprisingly meaningful conversation about gifts, courage, and why we’re often tempted to keep what God’s given us turned down. Together, they reflect on how worship, creativity, and calling are meant to spill out into everyday life even when it feels vulnerable or inconvenient. A lighthearted story with a deeper invitation: don’t hide your voice, your joy, or your gift. Someone might need to hear it.

Some things you don’t actually know until you say them out loud.
Some feelings have probably always been there you just discover them mid-sentence.

In this episode, Aaron and Sarah talk about how Sarah often realizes what she’s been feeling while she’s verbally processing it. What felt unclear internally suddenly makes sense once it’s named. Along the way, they laugh about a very questionable (and very fake) email that showed up on the website involving… smooching.

Expect reflection, humor, and a reminder that sometimes the truest thoughts aren’t hidden… they’re just waiting to be said out loud.

Because some things aren’t new realizations—
they’re probably always true.

This episode gets its name from a conversation about dancing and the realization that we’d never be petite jazz dancers. We’re heavy set jazz—and honestly… that explains everything.

After nine months away, we’re back with laughter, memories, jokes, stories on stories, and a few unexpected turns (including bees). It’s messy, familiar, and full of life as Sarah and Aaron come out swinging.

Welcome back.
