  • Unconditional Love with Jonathan Merritt and Dr. James Merritt - Episode 906

    Unconditional Love with Jonathan Merritt and Dr. James Merritt - Episode 906
    Aug 1 2024
    Today on the show, you’re in for a good one. You’ve probably heard me talk about my friend, Jonathan Merritt, and today you’re going to get to know him AND his dad, Dr. James Merritt. These two have a really special relationship as father and son even though they don’t see eye to eye on a lot of things, including sexuality. Today we’re going to talk about their latest books The God Who Hears and My Guncle and Me, and we’re also going to talk about their relationship and how they’ve navigated their differences. Listen. I want you to lean in here…this is a really nuanced conversation, which is hard to do in a public setting. It’s such an honor that Jonathan and Dr. Merritt would agree to have this conversation with us and the sacredness of this is not lost on me. I have so much to learn from both of them and I’m grateful for what I learned in this conversation. For parents, we recommend listening first without your kids so you can decide how you want to engage any conversations this episode might bring up. . . . . Want to watch this episode on YouTube?

    Why Does God Allow Bad Things? with Davey Blackburn - Episode 905
    Jul 29 2024
    No matter what you've walked through, you’ve probably had a painful experience in your life and found yourself asking: Why does God allow bad things to happen? My friend, Davey Blackburn walked through a horrific tragedy in 2015, and now, Davey is sharing his story and helping us all figure out how to navigate those questions in his brand new book, Nothing is Wasted. I just loved this conversation and I think you will too! And as a head’s up, you will likely want my miniBFFs to sit out on this one since we’re approaching some really heavy topics. . . . .

    We’re so glad y'all love these episodes with Eddie as much as we do!

We’ve now made it all the way to 2019 and as always, we spent about 8 minutes recapping 2019 and 45 minutes just chatting LIKE.WE.DO. You get it. Is Eddie really a spy? Did I almost get eaten by a mountain lion? And of course we HAD to talk about the upcoming Olympics. Check out our previous recap episodes. . . . . .

real life, very great listen

I really enjoy Lauren Akins podcast and her work in general. She is very down to earth, real and gives good insight into living in love. She covers several topics so far and each one has hit home in some way.
