Getting Guys to Step up and Lead May 09, 2023

Show notes

#93: Welcome back to Part 2 of Kim's discussion with her husband, Sean, about men and Biblical leadership. They had so much to talk about that their initial recording went pretty long. Instead of editing parts out, we decided to divide it into two episodes.

Last week, Kim and Sean talked about what the Bible means when it says that the husband is to lead a family, and they started talking about what that looks like practically. If you haven't heard Part 1 yet, go back and give a listen to Episode #92.

This week we are discussing questions like, "How can a single girl tell if a guy will be a good leader or not?" and "Is there anything a young woman can do to help a guy in her life step up and lead well?"

The episode is the finale for Season 5. Thanks so much for joining us. We're taking our break for the summer, and we'll see you again in August for Season 6!

What It’s Like for a Godly Guy to Lead May 02, 2023

Show notes

#92: One of the most common complaints we hear from young women is, “Why don’t guys take more initiative in relationships?”

In fact, the most listened-to episode on our podcast, hands-down, is our first episode, “Where Are All of the Good Guys?”

Whether it is simply asking a girl out or providing communication and clarity in a relationship, many guys won’t step up and take the lead. Why is that?

In today’s episode, we’re talking about men and Biblical leadership. Kim and her husband have an honest conversation about what it is like for a husband to lead in his marriage and family. You don't want to miss this rare opportunity to get a peek inside the heart and mind of a godly man.

Dealing With Change Apr 25, 2023

Show notes

#91: Are you someone who likes change?

It seems like people fall into one of two camps. They either love it and seek it out, or they hate it and avoid it.

I think we’d all agree that change is inevitable. Sometimes we’re the one that initiates the change, and other times we are the recipient of the change happening around us.

In today’s episode, we’re talking with Bonnie about dealing with change, and she's giving us some practical tips on how to deal with change well.

#90: Are you struggling with a desire to be in a relationship?

It’s difficult to know how to process all the emotions and feelings surrounding our unmet desires and longings. It’s hard to know where God is when you are right in the middle of them.

You are not alone. We know. We’ve been there. We get you.

Sam is the perfect guest for this episode, and she is going to walk us through how to deal with our unmet longings and desires.

What if I’m a Woman With a Strong Personality? Apr 04, 2023

Show notes

#89: Last week, we had a spicy episode on submission! And one of the biggest questions we’ve received is, “What does submission in marriage as a strong woman look like?”

“What if I’m not quiet and I have strong opinions?”

“What if the guy I marry is more laid-back than I am?”

To our strong female personalities out there, we hear you! And we hope to answer your question in this episode. This week, we’re talking with Rob and Bekah. Bekah has a "Commander" personality, and Rob is more laid-back. How has that worked for them in their ten years of marriage? Listen in and find out.

"I Don't Want to Make My Husband a Sandwich" Mar 28, 2023

Show notes

#88: Does God want husbands to boss their wives around to make sandwiches for them?

Is that what submission means?

Why does God care about submission in marriage?

What does submission look like?

How do women submit to their husbands in marriage?

If submission is so important in marriage, are we supposed to be submissive while single?

What if a wife has a stronger personality than the man she marries? How does submission work then?

What if a wife disagrees with a decision her husband makes, or what if he isn't making a decision when she thinks he needs to?

If you have ever asked any of these questions, we hope you'll listen in to our discussion. We won't be able to cover everything in one episode, but Kim presents a helpful framework that lays the groundwork for what submission is and isn't.
