This week we dive into our testimonies! We have shared bits of these in some of our earliest episodes, but we dive deeper into when and why a relationship with Jesus became a choice instead of an obligation from our upbringings. Micah speaks about fear of hell as a child and Sarah about a personal medical miracle she experienced in her family.

This week I did one of my favorite things...asked my husband questions to see if I could learn anything new about him! I love that even though we've been together for 8.5 years, if I ask the right questions, I can learn things about him that we've never talked about. We hope this encourages a fun conversation between partners, friends, spouses...anyone you know and love but with whom you want to deepen your connection.

This week Micah and I discuss some of my end of pregnancy anxieties and how I put a stop to them, along with the power of being certain with a goal but flexible with the path in which we get there. We also touch on how there is so little we can control from day to day, and how our faith provides us peace in those uncontrollables.

This week we had a very vulnerable conversation with Cam and Mal Reyes! They not only have a massive social media following across instagram, Youtube, TikTok, Facebook, etc. but they have a ton of value and experience to share about discernment, selflessness, and what it looks like when we get deeply rooted in the pursuit of becoming more Christ-like...especially the MOST uncomfortable parts. Nobody is or ever will be perfect, but the transparency and growth mindedness of these two is admirable!
