  • Ep. 27 - Tradition, Spirit & the Tension Between Us: A Real Talk on Catholicism
    Dec 12 2025

    Send us a text

    Have you ever felt torn between structure and the supernatural?
    Why do some churches feel deeply reverent — while others feel wildly alive?
    And what does Jesus actually expect from His followers?

    In this episode, we dive into our own stories — from strict Catholic schooling to Pentecostal culture shock — and wrestle with the big questions:
    👉
    What role should tradition REALLY play in our faith?
    👉 Why do Catholics pray to saints?
    👉 Can Protestants be guilty of “Disney-faith” emotionalism?
    👉 Where do both sides get it wrong… and right?

    If you’ve ever wondered whether unity is possible — this conversation will surprise you.

  • Ep. 26 - Abortion, Trauma & Grace: The Conversations the Church Avoids
    Dec 5 2025

    Send us a text

    What happens when abortion isn’t just a “culture war” topic, but a secret sitting quietly in your church pews? 🤍


    How do you tell the truth about sin and still offer outrageous grace to women and men who carry post-abortion pain?


    What if you’ve had an abortion—are you disqualified from God’s love, or is there a path to real healing and freedom?

    In this honest roundtable, we talk about:

    First-hand stories of abortion, regret, and redemption

    Why the church has often wounded people by only shouting “truth” without offering a place to heal

    How false gods of comfort, control, and image still drive our decisions today

    The deep, lifelong impact of abortion on the heart, mind, and soul

    Practical next steps if you’ve had an abortion or love someone who has

    If you’ve ever thought, “We don’t talk about this in church,” this conversation is for you.
    Bring your questions. Bring your pain. Jesus isn’t afraid of either.

  • Ep. 25 - Broke, Blessed & Finally Free? Real Talk on Debt, Tithing, and God’s Money
    Nov 28 2025

    Send us a text

    What if your minimum student loan payment was $1,800 a month… before rent or food? What if divorce forced you to face your finances for the first time? What if God asked you to give more while you were still buried in debt?

    In this conversation, we get brutally honest about money, faith, and freedom. We share real stories of:

    • Crippling student loans and anxiety around money
    • Starting over financially after divorce
    • How Financial Peace and wise counsel can change your whole trajectory
    • The difference between needs vs wants (and why “I deserve it” keeps us broke)
    • Being house poor vs actually free
    • Whether ignoring your debt is a form of stealing
    • Why tithing and generosity unlock “God’s math” in ways that don’t fit on a spreadsheet

    💬 Questions for you:

    • Have you ever felt trapped by your own money choices?
    • Do you believe Christians should think differently about debt and wealth?
    • What’s one habit you know you need to change with money right now?

    If you’ve ever thought, “I love Jesus, but my finances are a mess,” this episode is for you. Pull up a seat, grab a notebook, and let’s talk about what it really looks like to steward God’s money with wisdom, peace, and purpose.

  • Ep. 24 - Stepkids, New Spouses & First Holidays: Navigating Blended Family Life
    Nov 21 2025

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Between Sundays, our host sits down with Winfield and Muriel to talk honestly about what it looks like to create a Christ-centered home when there are kids, exes, previous marriages, and very real emotions in the mix. One voice shares what it was like to be raised by a young mom and grandparents, only learning about her father—and four sisters—after his death. Another story wrestles with moving in with a new stepdad who felt more like a stranger than a parent, and watching younger siblings form a “unit” while she felt like the aunt on the outside.

    Winfield and Muriel open up about their own journey: previous relationships, kids from different homes, living arrangements, and even that first holiday together as a blended family. How do you make sure the children aren’t just collateral damage in your excitement about a new romance? How do you slow down, enter their world, and invite them into a new normal instead of forcing them to “just get used to it”?

    Along the way, Theo calls out directly to pastors and ministry leaders: if you want to love and lead your people well, you need to understand mixed families, listen to their stories, and preach with them in mind. The Bible really does speak to these situations—if we’re willing to have the conversations.

    If you’re in a blended family, dating someone with kids, leading a church, or just trying to understand the families around you, this conversation will give you language, perspective, and hope that God is at work even in the most complicated family trees.

  • Ep. 23 - Fights, Finances & Feelings: Learning to Do Marriage God’s Way
    Nov 14 2025

    Send us a text

    What really happens after the wedding photos fade and real life sets in?

    In this behind-the-scenes marriage conversation, Pastor Mike Hilson sits down with Theo & Sylvana Bolden and Max & Phil Higgins to talk honestly about how they met, what first drew them together, and the moments they wondered, “Is this the one?” From Max realizing she could show up in sweatpants and still feel fully loved, to Sylvana’s infamous “Move over, Mr. ChapStick” line at a café in Delaware, these couples share the funny, awkward, and vulnerable beginnings of their love stories.

    They don’t stop at cute stories, though. Pastor Mike walks everyone through:

    • How God used their relationship to grow and mature them
    • The first real fights—over clothes, trust, and finances
    • What it means to create “rules of engagement” for conflict
    • Why marriage has to be a choice you keep making, not just a feeling
    • How to keep your long-term vision (retirement, calling, family) in view when emotions run high

    If you’re dating, engaged, newly married, or years into the journey, this episode will give you real-world encouragement, practical wisdom, and a reminder that God is at work even in your messiest conversations.

  • Ep. 22 - Belonging Over Labels: Church, Coaching & the Work of Racial Reconciliation
    Nov 7 2025

    Send us a text

    Hosts Theo Bolden and Maxine Higgins sit down with Pastor Mike Hilson and Coach Brian Fox for a frank, hope-filled conversation on racial reconciliation—spanning childhood moments of belonging, coaching as a father-figure, why “equal footing” beats tokenism, and how the church can move from talk to tangible love of neighbor. It’s honest, practical, and rooted in the gospel’s call to unity without erasing difference.

  • Ep. 21 - Stop Being Nice: Why Biblical Kindness Looks Different
    Oct 31 2025

    Send us a text

    This week on Between Sundays, hosts Theo Bolden and Maxine Higgins sit down with Alexa Hilson and Antonio Taylor to ask a surprisingly deep question: Is being nice always good? Or could it be a subtle trap?

    Together, they unpack the difference between niceness — a cultural expectation — and kindness, which is a fruit of the Spirit.

    They explore:

    • Whether “being nice” has become a false idol
    • What true biblical kindness looks like
    • How to handle conflict with both grace and honesty

    If you’ve ever struggled to balance truth and love, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to pursue kindness that reflects the heart of Christ — not just comfort.
