In this episode, David and Katie take a deep dive into the topic of biblical womanhood. What does it mean and not mean to be a biblical woman? What does it look like practically? And how does the truth of what Scripture teaches contrast with the message that we receive from culture?  https://www.focusonthefamily.com/marriage/what-scripture-taught-me-about-womanhood/ Katie IG: @ thepurposefilledfamily David IG: @ Dave_Tozi thepurposefilledfamily@gmail.com

In this “informal” episode, David and Katie sit down with no notes and talk about the question of when does grace become enabling as it pertains to the Church and society. David and Katie wrestle with the question of “when did not holding the same belief as someone mean you were intolerant, close-minded, or hateful?” This is the type of conversation that is held in the Tozi household and in this episode, David and Katie simply have it in front of the microphones. @thepurposefilledmama @dave_tozi heartfeldtmedia.com Thepurposefilledfamily@gmail.com

In this part II of this two part episode, David and Katie take an in-depth look at H.R. 5, aka, the “Equality Act.” The proposed Equality Act of 2021 (H.R. 5) would make mainstream beliefs about marriage, biological facts about sex differences, and many sincerely held beliefs punishable under the law. The Equality Act makes discrimination the law of the land by forcing Americans to conform to government-mandated beliefs under the threat of life-ruining financial and criminal penalties. David and Katie take a look at what this bill could potentially mean, if one day passed, for our country, our children, and our future generations.
