Hey guys! On this episode, I sit down with one of my friends, Madeline Helland. We discuss everything from social media struggles, to eating disorders, and even touch base on, of course, the enneagram. I absolutely loved this conversation with this girl. Madeline opens up about some struggles with body image that she has had over the course of her life, and dives into how that looks today with her family. Madeline is so valued in o...

Hey Friends! I am so excited for part one of our man panel, or "Manel", on relationships! We go into topics on part one such as "are formal dates extinct?", labeling a relationship, women pursuing men, and dating in the scriptures. We also touch base on purity throughout the series, as well as our perspective of living a Christian relationship. I am joined by Jonathan from episode 10, Rachel from episode 13, as well as Trevor and D...

Hi friends! On this week's episode, I have exactly what the title is, a life chat with my girl Sandra. Sandra goes into topics such as boundaries, living your full potential, her take on the phrase "guard your heart" means, and other common topics among Christian young adults. I absolutely adore this little conversation that we have, and I am sure you will, too! Sandra is a camp counselor, a barista at my favorite local tea shop, a...

Hi friends! Happy Wednesday!

On today's episode, I talk with my friend Enoch about his experience of finding Christ while in college, and how that effected his relationships with people. We also talk about how Enoch just now started a life of battling anxiety, and how he has learned to value anxiety as a direct moment that he can take in silence with God, as well as see how God has worked with him to find coping mechanisms. Enoch a...

Hey friends and happy Wednesday! Today, I have guest who has been through more than most of us will go through in our lives. Mitch Waldorf is a graphic design artist, a man of Christ, and one of my first guy friends that I made in my Christian walk. We discuss how imperative it is to find joy in the little things, as well as trusting God in all circumstances, even when a scary brain surgery at 16 is happening. I also love how we di...

Honestly, I struggled to name this episode. We go over life topics such as self-esteem, faith, loyalty to God, singleness, and we end up going on somewhat of a rant somewhere in here about Christian dating, because, let's be honest, which of us single people DON'T complain about it?! You also get a sneak peak of something that is in the works, and very exciting! Rachel is such a warrior of faith, she was my very first friend I made...

 Happy Wednesday loves!

So, this weekend I invited my friend Rachel Robare on to share her story, but, she turned the tables and put me on the spot. I knew the time would come soon, and it came sooner than I thought! So, friends, this episode is my story of coming to Christ. It’s ugly, it’s not my best story, its full of partying, but it is a wonderful testament to how God can turn any mistakes into His story of rede...

Hey Friends! 

This episode of Hearts Unglued is getting down to the nitty-gritty of just what happens when God calls you to the S-word. Singleness. Ben dives into how he has become so involved in ministry, and what his struggles have looked like as he has lived out his 20s as a single man. He talks about the temptations, when he has failed, and how he has realigned his heart time and time again to what he believes God's Will i...

You guys. This conversation is just GOLD. Jon and I talk about how so often, we get swayed into the ways of the world. Around age 15, Jon started to detach from his Christian walk, and start to dabble into the world of sin. We talk about how often this is a path that Christians tend to take, no matter how strong our faith was at the beginning. Jon then discusses what it looked like when he decided to return to his faith, and how th...

Hi Friends! In this episode, I talk with one of my best friends, and the first person who brought this podcast even into my brain. Brittany is a mentor to so many women through our young adult group, and also has a quality sense of humor (which is always appreciated here!). Brittany goes through how after her initial relationship with God began, she entered one of the hardest storms of her life. Instead of blaming God, she leaned i...

Hey Friends! In this episode, Shallee and I discuss how she pushed God to the side in her life for years, and how a situation that looked hopeless from the outside was where God did His biggest work. Shallee discusses her life from being a young wife, getting divorced young, a life in the sex industry, and being in an abusive relationship, to becoming a faithful woman of God and an active member in our church fam. Shallee is so ins...

On this week's episode, my guest is Hannah Tilton, a graduate of Central Michigan, and a friend of mine since I was 14! Heartache comes in many different forms, ranging from the death of a loved one, breakups, to losing friends. Hannah discusses with me the variety of heartaches that she has endured in her lifetime. We talk about the differences of dealing with heartache with Christ in our life, and without, and how the two differe...

On this week's podcast, I talk with Eric about his journey of being a faithful non-believer, to opening his heart, and having his heart filled with Christ. We also dive into what a long distance relationship looks like and we are also joined with last week's guest, Laura. We end the episode with both Laura and Eric sharing some of their struggles, as well as some of the ways they now know how to handle issues that come up through d...

 On today's podcast, Laura dives into her insecurities with thoughts of abandonment, and her journey in being able to uncover the reasons with feeling this way. I think a lot of us can relate to her uncertainty of her future, and how we tend to cling tightly to those around us when we are in that kind of storm. Laura also discusses the struggles of growing up with divorced parents, and how it has had a domino effect on her lif...
