As we head into our summer break, we're taking a moment to reflect on the journey that brought us here. In this episode, we open up about healing, growth, and how much our lives have changed since we first hit "record."
What started as two friends having conversations has become a space where we've shared our stories, challenged old beliefs, laughed through the chaos, and connected with an incredible community. We talk about what healing has looked like for each of us, the lessons we've learned along the way, and how vulnerable we've become by letting the world in.
This isn't goodbye it's just a little pause. Thank you for every listen, every message, every laugh, and for allowing us to be part of your week. We can't wait to come back after the summer with new stories, fresh perspectives, and even more "Amen, But..." moments.

Amen, But STFU
Welcome back to Amen, But… STFU
This week we’re talking HOT topics from Drake’s new album, to Euphoria, to Kelly Clarkson (because somehow we always end up there ). Then we dive into our main conversation: Christian influences, purity culture vibes, and the cringey things growing up in Christian spaces taught us to normalize.
We’re unpacking the weird, the funny, and the moments that made us stop and think… “wait, why was THAT a thing?”
Come laugh with us, question everything, and maybe heal your inner church kid a little.

Amen, but Who Let Them Start a Cult?
This week on Amen, But… we dive into the wild Netflix documentary about the woman who risked everything to infiltrate a cult and help save vulnerable women from manipulation and abuse. We unpack the psychology behind cults, why people get pulled into them, and the shocking parallels to everyday life and religion.
But don’t worry it’s not all heavy this week. We’re also back to being unserious with hot topics, random tangents, and the chaotic conversations y’all love. One minute we’re talking mind control… the next we’re spiraling over pop culture.
As always: equal parts deep, unhinged, and healing.

It’s real, it’s relatable, and it might have you saying… yeah, we need to talk about this.

Amen, But Why the Misconceptions?
This week’s episode dives into a powerful and honest conversation about the common misconception that sexuality is a choice. The discussion opens the door to a deeper exploration of where these beliefs come from and challenges the myths surrounding the causes of homosexuality.
The hosts unpack how environment and upbringing are often misunderstood as determining factors, while also addressing the idea of a so-called “gay agenda” and contrasting it with the performative nature of religious influence.
Throughout the episode, they reflect on first encounters with LGBTQ+ individuals, shifting public opinions on same-sex marriage, and the stereotypes that continue to shape perceptions today. Ultimately, this conversation encourages listeners to question assumptions, recognize bias, and better understand the complexities of identity and acceptance.
