The Christian Freedom...To Drink Alcohol?
As we continue our series on Christian freedoms, next up, we’re talking about alcohol. Often a taboo topic, today, we aim to provide a biblically healthy discussion on alcohol, how those that exercise their Christian freedom to consume it should do so, and how we should honor our Christian brothers and sisters that choose to abstain. All this and more, in a new episode of the podcast.

The Christian Freedom...To Disagree?
The Christian faith comes with many cultures and preferences and as a result, also comes with many differing denominations and convictions. But different doesn’t necessarily mean sinful. In fact, our differences allow us to build the kingdom in a more robust way. On what foundation do we base what we should agree on as believers and what we have the freedom to differ on? More importantly, what does disagreeing with the body look like in real time? All this and more, in a new episode of the podcast.

Holy Matrimonies, Highlight Reels & The Healing Needed From The Covetousness It Brings
Marriage is a beautiful picture of Christ and his bride the church. With that picture in mind, it’s healthy and wise to want to make our marriages the best they can be, where both parties serve, love and honor each other well. But what are the dangers of taking instruction from social media and how should we approach marriage in real time, when the camera isn’t on and there is no audience but God? All this and more, on a new episode of the podcast.

Forgiveness, Reconciliation & The Pride That Prevents Us From Doing Both
Forgiveness is for you and not them. Is it? Maybe. On one hand it is, as forgiveness is something that we do because we submit to God and understand that he forgives us daily so we forgive so that we don’t hold on to things. But is there another step to take? Why do we stop there? As we represent Christ, his grace and mercy…forgiveness actually is for the other person too. Today we’re talking about forgiveness, reconciliation and the pride that prevents us from doing both. A new episode starts now.

Mental Health: Being Open About My Anxiety
I hope that you guys have had a great week. This week, I want to talk about needing therapy. This year my mental issues hit me more than ever, and while as I said earlier, the year of 24 was awesome, there were some moments where I was really in an extremely dark place.

I'm Done Apologizing For Being Christian Around You
Okay so If you’ve read any content from MFM lately then you’ll see that my 25th birthday is approaching and it is driving me crazy to say the least. And you know, while I am excited, I’m getting really really anxious about a lot of things. Trying to think about all of the things you want to embody to be the woman you aspire to be is a lot of pressure, but I do think that there should come a point where a woman knows who she is, what she wants, and is consistent to those things.

When Is The Right Time For Marriage?
Originally I was actually planning on doing another podcast topic today, but a couple days ago, I got a message from someone asking me to give my thoughts on a topic and based on the question, I thought that a podcast would be the best outlet for a response. The message reads: Hi Rochelle. I would love to hear your thoughts and a future topic centered around the "timing" of marriage.

Give a woman more credit than thinking marriage is only important to...
