just some thoughts… i hope they read this.
i was always hesitant to listen to their podcast bc i wasn’t really sure where the ciciotti’s stood theologically. some of the earlier content was great and i really felt like they were on track. milena definitely seems like she’s still in the younger years of her walk with the Lord, but we were all there at one point. jordan is very versed and seems to be pretty solid. that’s why those 2 got married — the Lord always has a plan. as i got into other episodes i soon started to notice some things were not so sound. i’m someone who doesn’t believe the apostolic gifts exist bc we now have the entire Bible at our hands and the time, the Bible was still being written. when they had someone go on that said he was an apostle and was no longer a cessationist i thought it was a little weird. or when nava was on and she said she spoke in tongues… application and interpretation is off, but was whatever about it. i’ve learned that some of these things don’t mean the person isn’t a believer, but the understanding and application is incorrect. no biggie. i do like that they are conservative christian’s — meaning their views are going to be seen as “not the true christianity” but if the Bible says it’s a sin, then it is. and that’s the true christianity. not what other people wanna make it. so this is a major bonus for me. something that did bother me was the reddit thread. i’m a mexican american woman, and while my identity isn’t in my race… it was hurtful to see that melanie so freely and comfortably said what she said for the whole internet to see. i’ve known for it to be a stereotype that brazilians and mexicans don’t like one another, but there’s no room for that in the body of Christ. so that was definitely kind of an ouch moment for me but quickly got over it. the episode that did bother me was melanie’s testimony. i’m one to say that the Lord can and will bring people out of drug addiction and sexual immorality — i’ve experienced it. what i wish she would have mentioned, which is important in every testimony, is that she realized she was a sinner in need of a savior. that even tho she grew up in a christian home or in the church that it finally applied to HER and her life. my husband grew up learning about Jesus but he wasn’t saved until he was 18. it really rubbed me the wrong way but i gave it some grace bc i know what the Lord can do. but that episode felt really.. self serving and icky. idk if they will ever read this or if anyone ever will, but these are just my thoughts. and that’s why i gave it 3 stars. as long as they aren’t pushing joel osteen and that kinda stuff then i can choose which episodes are really going to be edifying and theologically sound.

You both are so amazing and truly a breath of fresh air! As a teen, I’m always looking for saved, Christian influences, and it’s nice to see a healthy marriage that exemplifies God!!!
