Once Christina and I had Victoria, our first child, the way we went about life and ministry changed dramatically.
Instead of being on the front lines doing ministry together, Christina took a back seat. Not a back seat in regards to importance, but a back seat in regards to visibility and role.
So over the last year, a regular conversation that we would have while praying and Sabbathing together had been, “What are you going to do when the kids all go to school?”
“Are you going to go back to social work? To counseling? Back to school? Or start something new?”
While we still don’t have that fully figured out (and I think that’s okay), there is one thing that we’ve decided to do…and do together.
Start a podcast!!
We’re not moving, we’re not having another baby, and I don’t have a new job. But we are entering into a new chapter and season of our lives, marriage, and ministry.
Over the past 11 years of marriage, our home and dinner table have been a consistent place of encouragement and fun with other couples and families.
Even before we were married, we dreamed about our future home being a place where others would feel loved, appreciated, and comfortable to be themselves—flaws and all. This desire was rooted in our love for God and is actually summed up in the scripture passage engraved on the inside of our wedding bands, Romans 12:9-21!
So we’ve decided to start a podcast for couples and parents where we would take topics and break them down into practical and implementable principles for your life, marriage, and family. It’s called the IMbetween Podcast.
Topics include:
- Double chins and getting older
- Money saving hacks
- How to not hate your in-laws
- Extra curricular activities and slowing down
- Keeping the romance alive
- The new rules of dating and why it matters
- …and more!
So we’d be honored if you would subscribe and listen to our weekly podcast (maybe even with your spouse). And if you don’t mind, sharing this podcast with others and an honest rating and review on Apple Podcasts would help A TON in getting the word out.
