TOB Podcast

In our final episode of Season 1, we’re taking a moment to look back on the journey so far! Join us as we dive into a fun TOB podcast quiz, revisit our favorite (and not-so-favorite) moments, and reflect on everything we’ve learned along the way. We’re incredibly grateful to our amazing community! Thank you for listening, supporting, and growing with us. This is just the beginning, and we’ll be ba...

Have you ever felt like you had to perform to be a “good Christian”? Like certain habits or rules defined your closeness to God? You’re not alone. In this episode, we unpack the things we used to do out of fear or obligation and trade them for a deeper, freer relationship with God rooted in truth and grace. Through honest reflections, personal stories, and practical advice, we talk about what it r...

In this episode, we open up with a game called “Growing up, I knew I was in trouble when” and how those memories still sit with us today. We explore the long-term effects of physical discipline, and how it often teaches children to suppress emotions or normalize violence instead of learning how to emotionally regulate and dive into the difficult, but necessary, conversation around choosing patienc...

Are Christian influencers getting it wrong? In this episode, we’re diving into the difference between being a Christian influencer and being a Christian who happens to create content. We’re calling out the double standards the world puts on believers, the way Christians tear each other down more than build each other up, how the Church has become known more for what it’s against than what it stand...

In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most relatable human experiences: the gap between how others see us and how we truly feel inside. Why do so many of us hide parts of ourselves to avoid conflict, shame, or judgment? And what does it cost us? We explore what it means to protect our true nature, especially when we’re naturally more introverted in a world that often expects us to be loud,...

In this fun and heartfelt episode, we’re celebrating a major milestone—Queen’s 1-year wedding anniversary! Tune in as we reflect on what the first year of marriage has taught her and share some sweet (and hilarious) highlights from the journey so far. We play a spicy relationship game where we call out real-life scenarios and decide: Is this princess treatment or just the bare minimum? Get ready f...

This week on TOB, we’re joined by none other than OJE THE DJ! Since 2014, OJE has been a key voice in faith-based music, bringing unforgettable energy to events like Kingdom Bound, Change Conference, Overflow, and more — from Canada to the U.S. and Europe. He’s shared the stage with artists like Lecrae, Chris Tomlin, and Elevation Rhythm, and is also 1/3 of ANC3 — a dynamic group blending faith, m...

Is the idea of “soft life” compatible with a life of faith? In this episode, we explore how the modern pursuit of ease and luxury stacks up against biblical examples like Jesus, John the Baptist, and Queen Esther. We talk purpose, responsibility, rest, and the tension between inner healing and outward appearances. Can spiritual warfare, hard work, and true peace coexist? We think so—and we’re pray...

In today’s episode, we kick things off with a thought-provoking game brought to us by @andletthechurchsay that leads to some deep and dynamic conversations. From lighthearted debates—like whether women should propose to men or how much PDA is too much during the dating phase—to heavier topics around faith, salvation, and the state of the Church. We reflect on the overwhelming love of our Heavenly...

In this powerful episode, we’re joined by a special guest — our friend Tolu, who’s about to begin her PhD in psychology. Together, we unpack a listener’s heartfelt dilemma: how do you reconcile your faith with the need for therapy? Tolu brings insight, compassion, and clarity to the conversation, reminding us that faith and therapy are not enemies — they can actually work hand-in-hand. We dive int...

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the honest, sometimes uncomfortable space where faith, family, and personal growth collide. We’re exploring the kind of questions that don’t come with neat answers — like what to do when you’re pursuing love through a Christian lens, but it keeps ending in disappointment. Is it faithfulness, or is it fear disguised as standards? We also unpack the emotional we...

In this episode, we ask the tough question: Is it harder to share the gospel with a stranger or correct a fellow believer’s doctrine? (Spoiler: both are awkward.) We also talk about how getting closer to God reveals the mess in us, and why integrity is the launchpad for boldness. If your house isn’t in order, should you really be trying to clean someone else’s? From personal stories of evangelism...

Ever wondered if modesty is about your hemline or your heart? This week, we dive headfirst into a modesty minefield with laughs, Scripture, and a little holy side-eye. We kick off by asking the question that nobody seems to be asking: “What does male modesty even look like?” (Hint: It’s more than just wearing a shirt at the beach, fellas.) From the viral “get ready with me” videos that start in un...

Is worship still about glorifying God, or has it become about building a platform? In this episode, we’re digging into the complex intersection of gospel, culture, and the current state of the worship music industry. From branded aesthetics to chart-topping singles, we explore how the heart of worship can get lost in the noise of algorithms, marketing, and performance. Can artistry and anointing c...

Is it possible for God to love us deeply and still be disappointed in our actions? In this episode, we talk about the uncomfortable — but beautiful — reality of godly correction. From conviction to discipline, we explore how God’s displeasure doesn’t cancel His love, but actually proves it. If you’ve ever felt distant from God because of your mistakes, or unsure if His correction means rejection,...

This week on the TOB Podcast we blend real-life parenting, honest theology, cultural commentary, and spontaneous musical outbursts into one big chaotic conversation. We dive into raising kids in a world full of mixed messages. We talk about the little things like the sheer terror of someone knocking on your door unannounced—seriously, stop doing that and the big things like how to help your childr...

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the chaos of Christian dating with a fresh round of “Would You Rather” — relationship edition. We’re asking the real questions: Would you rather be pursued for your character or your looks? Who in your circle would actually set you up with someone decent? And why does church matchmaking so often feel like it’s designed to benefit men more than women? We also...

In this episode, we’re talking all things help—giving it, asking for it (or not), and feeling some type of way when it’s not returned. We unpack why it’s so hard to just say “I need help,” and get real about the resentment that can grow when you pour out for others and come up empty-handed. From being honest about our pride, learning how to build a trustworthy community, to checking our own motive...

This week, we’re pulling back the curtain on imposter syndrome—yes, even in church (because apparently, holy water doesn’t wash away self-doubt). We’re talking about those compliments that make us want to crawl into a pew and disappear, the Olympic-level gymnastics it takes to be kind to ourselves, and why loving yourself isn’t the same as being full of yourself—no matter what Aunty says. We’re al...

In this week’s episode, we dive into the sensitive yet important conversation around money and manipulation in the church. We explore how financial practices can sometimes drift from biblical stewardship into areas of pressure, guilt, or exploitation — and how to discern the difference. Join us as we unpack what Scripture really says about giving, generosity, and leadership accountability, and ref...

In this episode, we kick things off with some fun Bible trivia—because who says learning about God can’t come with a little laughter? But then, we get into the real stuff. We’re talking self-righteousness: how it sneaks up on us, blocks us from grace, and keeps us from actually growing in our walk with God. We reflect on how kids in Sunday school are often more open to confronting sin than we grow...

In this week’s episode, we welcome our very first guest to the mic—and waste no time diving into the deep end. Would you rather be the only speaker on a Sunday morning, or be stuck in a never-ending convo with someone convinced they’ve cracked the code on the Second Coming? Yeah… we went there. From pews to pulpits, we ask the big questions: Have men taken a step back in church spaces? Can you be...

In this episode, we dive deep into some real questions like, will Jesus eat bacon when He returns? Spoiler: Jury’s still out on that one. We also play the red flag/green flag game, because, who doesn’t love calling out the obvious? We recount our experiences of being harassed by self-proclaimed “good guys”, touch on some peculiar archetypes of Christian men, and dive into the deep waters of what m...

In this heartfelt episode, we open up about our personal testimonies and the real-life impact of walking with God—one step at a time. From the early days of uncertainty to the quiet, consistent moments that built unshakable faith, we explore how an incremental relationship with God changes everything. Whether you’re just starting your spiritual journey or looking to deepen your connection, this ep...
