Have you ever wondered what mildly liberal evangelical Millennials that aren't pastors but have seminary degrees talk about?
We talk about everything Millennial! From philosophy, religion, health, money, sexuality, race and ethnicity, politics...all from the Millennial point of view. We have our fair share of foibles, challenges, and so much more that we're working out, but this is a journey worth documenting, sharing, and loving.
That's what we're here for.
Warning: Explicit discussion of sexuality.
In this episode, we pick up with some listener questions, including questions on imposing morals through politics, the term “woke-ism,” friendship, and masturbation. We talk more about Critical Race Theory, cancel culture, consent, and holding our opinions lightly. We finish by each answering this season’s question: What story is your life telling?

#28 That’s a Wrap on Season 2 pt. 1
In this episode, Anne and Muoki discuss the famed “future spouse lists” that they were instructed to make in their high school years inspired in conservative church circles. We laugh at some audience responses, tally how many people got what was on their shopping list, and share criteria that we believed essential as teens but now make us shake our heads. We discuss the cervical spine challenges of romantic relationships with a significant height differential (gotta have your chiropractor on retainer). We riff about marsupials.

#27 Redeeming it Upside Down with Manny Cumplido
Today we are joined by Manny Cumplido. Manny is a husband, father, pastor of West Newbury Congregational Church, and our hosts’ former classmate. Manny shares his experience of becoming a pastor of a new church during the pandemic and preaching his first sermon following the murder of George Floyd. He talks about what it means to be sown in weakness and raised in power, how he understands that exchange in light of his own life, this past year, and most recently, the death of DMX. Manny explains the four thresholds of faith (shout-out Don Everett), and we discuss our shared Pentecostal/Charismatic roots, and how we keep those roots alive today.
