Hey friends! Kristen here! I'm dropping into the LFTM feed today to let you know about my brand new podcast - The Youth Pastor's Wife Podcast!
I couldn't start off on this new season of my podcasting journey without letting yall know about the show and without saying thank you for all your love and support over the years! After all, yall are a huge reason why I fell in love with podcasting in the first place!
I would love for you to come over and listen to the show! And if you know a youth pastor's wife, it would mean the world to me if you would share the show with her!
The first three episodes of The Youth Pastor's Wife Podcast are available now so you can start listening today!
I'm so excited to see what God has in store for this new podcast!
Wow. We can’t really believe that we’re here. In some ways, it seems like the past 6 years have absolutely flown by. In other ways, it seems like we’re limping across this finish line after all of the turmoil and upheaval of the past year. Either way, we are so, so grateful for all of you and are mindful of the Lord’s goodness in all things. We are going to spend this last episode reflecting on the good times, the sad times, the funny times and everything in-between as we close out the Looking For The Middle journey as we have known it.
We have a very special “guest" with us and you do not want to miss it!

If you sang that title in your head like I did… you are my people! haha
This is the second to final episode and we are feeling nostalgic so this is a bit of a full-circle moment. We are taking it back to the days of random numbers and topics we don’t know ahead of time like the early days of CouchCast. So, sit back, and enjoy as we answer all your questions one last time!
Do you find yourself in a period of being single for longer than you had hoped or planned? Even if this isn’t you right now, there’s a good chance it has been you at some point, and today we’re diving into how to navigate this season and what it looks like to honor the Lord even in a period of life you might not have picked.
January and February are the months with the highest traffic on online dating apps for the whole year! Don’t miss out on those quality matches and messages… we’re here to help you get your profile in tip top shape.
You guys… this week’s episode is a mess! I am just warning you! We sat down to record and before we knew it, the building was overrun with people and then suddenly there were people all over the outside and they were replacing the gutters. We are all kids of distracted and there is all kinds of noise. SO SORRY!! We did our best guys… haha
We’re back from our little, unexpected, unannounced, poorly executed mini-mid-season-sabbatical! Sorry about that guys… there has been A LOT going on. We get into all of that today and we will be back to our regularly scheduled programming as usual next week!
We mentioned last week that we have been running on fumes the past couple of weeks… a lot going on personally, with work, and just all around. We hoped we’d be back on track this week, but we’re not quite there yet. So, just bear with us just a little longer and we’ll be back to normal (as normal as you can expect from us) in the next couple of weeks!
Do you ever wonder if you’re wanting to actually date THIS person or if you’re just wanting ANY person to fill a void that you feel in your life? Today, we’re going to tackle this question and talk through several scenarios where you may find yourself in this place. And, then, as always, we’re going to work through how to get out of it!
Hello, long lost friends! Goodness, this off-season seemed especially long! We have missed you guys and have so much to talk about… so, jump in with this week’s episode and let’s have a fun season!
This is definitely one of those episodes where the point is that we all know we’re not alone! Dating in church can be just plain weird sometimes. There are so many pitfalls and awkward situations that are uniquely Christian. Today, we’re diving into all the weirdness, and while we may not actually solve anything, we will definitely all leave feeling decidedly less alone.
This episode has been in the works for a few seasons now! We wanted to give it the preparation and thought it deserved… so, now, we’re jumping in and tackling this topic with the book of Proverbs as our jumping off point. We’re looking at the Proverbs 31 woman and then the Proverbs 1-30 man too!
Whether you’re the one being set up, or the one doing the setting up… we’ve been on both sides of this delicate topic and we’re talking about the whole process from start to finish from both sides!
Do you ever look back and wish you had been able to tell the younger version of yourself that everything would be ok? Or, maybe you want to tell yourself to snap out of it and get your act together? Here’s what we would have told ourselves if we had that chance!
Dalton has been a bit under the weather and we haven’t been able to record this week. We’ll be back next week with our next new episode, but until then, here’s one of your favorites for you to listen to again!
Oh, those early, awkward, unsure dates.... they're the worst, right? Please tell me I'm not the only one?! One thing that has made all the difference for me is know what to expect going into them. What to expect of the guy AND the date. Today, Dalton and I are talking about what are reasonable and unreasonable expectations to have going into those first few dates with someone new.
We talk (and complain) a lot about how dating is a complicated and convoluted process and that you don’t want to complicate it more. But, we don’t really talk all that much about how to actually simplify the process. So, let’s do that today!
Do you ever feel like there’s something missing in your life and if you could just have that one thing, then your life would be better? Complete, even? It’s so easy to push aside the satisfaction and contentment we should look for from Christ and put “things” into that place instead. Sometimes it seems like God doesn’t even understand what it is that you’re walking through. We get it. We’ve been there. We are there. This week’s episode is a little more raw, we’re talking the walls down and speaking from the heart today.
