EPISODE SUMMARY
In this special milestone episode — Episode 40 — Josie and Symone sit down for one of their favorite traditions: answering YOUR questions. This honest and joy-filled conversation moves from lighthearted topics like musicals and bucket lists to deeply spiritual moments about identity, sin, God’s timing, spiritual discipline, and biblical truth. They share reflections on favorite Bible stories, discuss practical ways to break free from sinful cycles, explore whether drunkenness is a sin, and unpack how to remain rooted in truth “in season and out of season.” The girls also open up about what relaxes them, podcasts they recommend, personal stories from college and work, and the importance of preparing your heart before temptation ever comes. Packed with scripture, vulnerability, wisdom, and a little humor — this Q&A is an encouraging reminder that God sees you, loves you, and is working even in the waiting.
