Join licensed clinical mental health counselor Wendy Osborn and her husband Chris as they share intimately about their journey through three decades of marriage, and the healing and growth God has brought them individually and as a couple in the process. From a storybook beginning right out of an 80s rom-com, though times of disappointment, heartache, seemingly unresolvable conflict, loss, and grief, their story forms the backdrop for considering how God uses struggle to draw folks closer to the real Jesus. Surviving Saturday is all about holding tenaciously on to hope in the darkest days-- in between the crucifixion on Friday, and his resurrection and ascension on Sunday.

Sex, Story, and the Hope of Healing with Sam Jolman
Y'all… we're blushing just a little over this one. Because today, we're going there — with therapist and author Sam Jolman, who joins us for a gracious, grounded, and yes, occasionally awkward conversation about sex, story, and the deep hope of healing.
Sam's new book The Sex Talk You Never Got is the kind of resource we wish we'd had at 13, 22, and honestly, last week. We talk about what we learned (and didn't) growing up in the church, how shame got tangled up with desire, and what it means to honor our bodies — and each other's — with curiosity, reverence, and kindness. Together we explore consent, deep wounds caused by "purity culture," emotional regulation, co-regulation, and the quiet ache for connection that often lives beneath our behaviors.
Whether you're parenting kids through the thick of it, untangling your own story, or simply trying to feel a little less weird about the fact that this topic still makes you squirm, we hope you'll feel seen, safe, and invited. Because this part of us — our longing, our tenderness, our capacity for joy — was never meant to be shut down. It was meant to be restored.
