  • Masculine & Feminine by Design: The Biblical Breakdown - Part 1
    Apr 30 2025

    Send us a text

    We’re constantly told men and women are the same — just interchangeable parts in a genderless machine. But is that actually true… or just cultural noise?

    What if gender roles aren’t sexist, but sacred?
    What if God meant for men to surge with testosterone and for women to overflow with estrogen?
    What if wombs and muscles weren’t random, but radically intentional?

    According to Scripture, the differences between men and women aren’t outdated — they’re divine. And they hold the key to understanding who we really are.

    Send us a text

    Let’s be honest—pursuing purity while dating someone you’re seriously into can feel next to impossible.

    The butterflies are real, the chemistry is strong, and suddenly you’re wondering... is kissing too far? What about cuddling on the couch? Holding hands? Where's the line?!

    Navigating physical boundaries in a dating relationship isn’t always black and white—and it can be so confusing. But here’s the thing: honoring God and each other is totally possible, even when the sparks are flying.

    In this episode, we’re getting real about the struggles, the questions, and the practical steps that helped us set Christ-honoring boundaries and actually stick to them. If you’ve ever wondered how to keep it holy while falling hard, this one’s for you.

  • An Honest Conversation About Saving Sex for Marriage
    Mar 21 2025

    Send us a text

    Is saving sex for marriage really worth it? Will the wedding night be totally awkward if we don’t "practice" first? And what about sexual compatibility—doesn’t that matter??

    We’re two Christian sisters who made the choice to wait until marriage, and trust us—we’ve heard all the questions (and plenty of skeptical comments). So let’s have an open, honest, and totally unfiltered conversation about it.

    After 6 and 14 years of marriage, do we regret waiting? If we could go back, would we do things differently? And were our wedding nights as awkward as everyone assumes? Let’s talk about it.

  • Our Best and Worst Valentine's Days EVER (in Singleness and Marriage)
    Feb 14 2025

    Send us a text

    Ep. 197 - This is a replay. Let's be honest. Valentine's Day isn't always what it's cracked up to be. Regardless of what we see on the Hallmark Channel, rarely do things turn out that perfectly. In singleness, we often feel bummed because we don't have that special someone. Then in marriage, we often feel bummed because our special day isn't turning out to be as romantic as we'd imagined!

    We can attest to feeling both of these ways. In today's episode, we're going to spill the beans and tell you about our worst and best Valentine's Days ever. Then, we're going to get honest about how we can all benefit from pursuing a more Christ-centered "Agape love" this Valentin'e Day and ditching the shallow version of "Hallmark Love."

    To take a deeper dive into all things love, romance, dating and marriage, check out our book, Love Defined: Discovering God's Vision for Lasting Love and Satisfying Relationships
