Episode #44: FRAMILY: CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY

Hey guys! We just got back from an AWESOME vacation with dear friends of ours & one thing that we are so grateful for are friends that have become family...FRAMILY! Early on in our marriage, we longed for this & God gifted us with a wonderful community of like-minded people. We don’t deserve it & didn’t earn this on our own merit but it’s truly one of the beautiful things about the Kingdom of God...COMMUNITY! God’s definition of the church is not a building but the people! We talk more in detail in the episode.

Episode #40 Us: Victim or Villain ... You Decide.

Welcome back! In this episode, we discuss Jordan Peele’s newest movie, US. If you have not seen the movie but plan on watching it, do that first & then come back & listen to this episode. THERE ARE SPOILERS IN THIS EPISODE!!! Anywho, we dive into the many layers of the movie. One obvious one is, are we the victim or the villian? Not to say situations cannot happen without our doing but how easy is it for us to place the blame elsewhere instead of taking responsibility for the situations we find ourselves in? Our choices do come with consequences. Well, take a listen & thank you for tuning in!

Episode #38 Don't Touch My Hair

If you can't tell from the logo, we are a "house of hair". In this episode, we discuss the decision many women (including Kimberly) have made to embrace their natural hair. Kimberly also shares her personal journey...why she decided to do it, the good, the bad, and the unexpected spiritual growth that resulted from "going natural". Because this was such a journey for Kim, we attached a FREE devotional over self-acceptance. Just click the button below.
