On this week's episode we discuss Pastor Marvin Sapp's viral video instructing ushers to lock the doors of the church as he was also asking his congregation to give a $40,000 offering. We explore how this can be triggering to people who have witnessed finical abuse in the church, but how the act of tithing and offering is and act of faith that we can still practice. The nuance: how do we practice our rituals while also holding our pastors accountable to better practices?

In this episode, Jonathan Majors: May This Love Never Find Us, we explore the intersections of Black womanhood, accountability, healing, and cultural conditioning. We begin by navigating faith, personal struggles, the impact of restorative justice, and culturally specific programming. The conversation then shifts to the complex dynamics of Black women’s roles in reconciliation, healing, and relationships, using Jonathan Majors as a lens to examine ego, emotional abuse, and the journey of recovery.

We unpack the historical and systemic influences on Black relationships, discuss the necessity of decentering men in pursuit of collective healing, and challenge how Black women prioritize others over themselves. This dialogue emphasizes the importance of community, self-prioritization, and unlearning harmful narratives to embrace a fuller, more liberated humanity.
