We finally did it. We built up the courage to share the story of some deep struggles we have had individually as well as together that brought us to God. This should also serve as a trigger warning for some heavy themes such as addiction, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and a brief mention of abortion again to fully tie in that part of the story from last episode. As always we thank you for listening and we hope we inspire you to search your own heart and share your story too. Peace, Love!

This week we came into the episode with no real topic on our minds and the Holy Spirit led us where we have been stalling. We start out with the normal rundown of what&#39;s been happening in our lives and then we dive into a personal part of our testimony.

Although it is unintentional, we seem to have started a new trend of monthly episodes rather than weekly or by-weekly. and we have good reason every time it happens. Life. That is all. It has been a whirlwind of events the past 3-4 weeks. Finishing summer, Jewell starting school, the kids share a room now, Juan has been working ridiculous amounts of overtime, and everything in between.

Hey, long time no see! We know it has been almost a month since we last posted an episode and trust us, it wasn&#39;t intentional. We took some well needed time of to reconsider where the podcast was headed and we have come to the conclusion that it was time for a change. Based on recent events and themes we already touched on, we felt it was only fitting to go where the Lord was leading us and we are now diving in to the idea of this becoming a Christian podcast. If you have been here since day one you know that&#39;s the exact opposite of what we wanted to do but our goal of self improvement hasn&#39;t changed. We hope you will continue to join us on our journey as we grow.

Reflection and conviction are the themes here today. We dive deep into what are prayer life looks like as we endure the storm of a season of struggle. It&#39;s okay to stumble, but the walk in faith remains.

Surpise! We missed you and we wanted to remember what weekly episodes felt like, lol. Since our journey with Christ began, idolatry has been a pretty hefty topic. While we have known about the topic for quite some time, it has been more apparent in our lives as of recently and we have been eager to work our way through it.

It feels good to be back on our regular schedule in a regular recording space (kind of lol). This weekend we had some deep discussions about what we were reading in our bibles and it led to an impromptu bible study.
