Deep conversations about life’s big questions, hosted by friends Destini Love (therapist and spiritual director), T. J. Stone (spiritual director), and Lauren Swain (therapist). We hold space for conversations about faith, spirituality, religion, mental and physical health, philosophical questions, as well as all the little things that make us human.
Episode 11 - The Demonization of Mental Health and Therapy By Religious Culture
In this episode, Destini, Lauren, and TJ breakdown their experiences with how the Church has often demonized and not promoted therapy and good mental health practices, rather favoring a Jesus/God only mentality rather than fostering a balance between physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health and modeling good practices for each. This one hits close to home as Destini and Lauren are both licensed therapists currently working in the field, and TJ is married to a licensed therapist and was the executive director of a statewide mental health advocacy nonprofit for several years in Tennessee. We also make time to imagine what finding the balance could look like and why it's important to address our mental health as well. Join our conversation.

Episode 8 - The Patriarchy and the Role of Women
In this episode, Destini, TJ, and Lauren break down the concept of the Patriarchy in Western society and how it relates to the church and spirituality. They also ask questions about how to promote women and lean into a spirituality that holds both the masculine and the feminine equally. We get into some history lessons and delve into how the history is still influencing opinions on how women are viewed in our culture even today. We also get into how the over-promotion of the masculine and subjugation of the feminine influences the way we see, know, and experience God. Rate, review, subscribe.

Episode 6 - What Are We Being Drawn To and Away From?
In this episode, T. J., Destini, and Lauren talk more specifically about the things they feel drawn to in this season and the things they feel drawn away from. In doing so, they break down their life situations and where they see things moving individually and leave space to embrace the mystery in all of it.

Episode 5 - Remodeling The Church
On this episode, Destini, Lauren, and TJ discuss what they see that works in the church and some things they have seen that do not work. In doing that, they touch on The Great Commission, what it means to disciple people, and how the church can raise up the individual giftings of some without raising any one person up as an idol to worship in place of God instead of being a conduit to connect better with God.

Episode 2 - How Big is The Body of Christ?
In this episode, Destini, Lauren, and TJ discuss how big the Body of Christ actually could be and if it includes people we may not be taught that it does.
