Should a Woman Take Her Husband’s Last Name?

Ep. 133 –  While the Bible does not give a direct command on this subject, it does have a lot to say about marriage. Marriage is a covenant between one man and one woman forever before God. It is a picture of Christ and the church. A husband and wife become one flesh.

Does that mean a woman should take on the man's last name though?

Let's take a deep dive and figure this out  together.

Masturbation: A Conversation for Single and Married Women

Masturbation is a topic that Christian women typically do not discuss. Sadly, the silence surrounding this topic has only confirmed in women’s minds that, “I must be then only woman in the world struggling with this!”

That is not truth though. Kristen has also bravely shared her own story many times in the past to help you know that you’re not alone and that freedom can be had.

Let’s take a deep dive and unpack this conversation and all of the nuance it holds.

The Dangers of Secular Manifestation and Girl-Bossing w/ Tara Sun

There’s a lie masquerading as truth that’s running rampant in our culture. It goes something like this: you are powerful enough to control your circumstances and create the life you want through positive thinking, solid planning, and dreaming big enough.

But if you’ve ever tried to control your life or to strive your way to self-fulfillment, you’ve discovered what lies on the other side of this supposedly empowering message: frustration, exhaustion, and disappointment when things don’t go your way.

The Dangers of Secular Manifestation and Girl-Bossing w/ Tara Sun

Ep. 131 – There’s a lie masquerading as truth that’s running rampant in our culture. It goes something like this: you are powerful enough to control your circumstances and create the life you want through positive thinking, solid planning, and dreaming big enough.

But if you’ve ever tried to control your life or to strive your way to self-fulfillment, you’ve discovered what lies on the other side of this supposedly empowering message: frustration, exhaustion, and disappointment when things don’t go your way.

In today's episode, Tara Sun explores why the quest for control is overrated—not to mention downright dangerous—and reveals the surprising, life-giving alternative: radical surrender to God.
