Summary
Welcome back to another episode of Stay True Podcast! This week, Madi and Grant sit down for a real, honest, and clarifying conversation about the online criticism they received this year… specifically around their comments on Biblical submission. They lean in with open hearts to reflect on what these conversations revealed about their faith, their marriage, their intentions, and their desire to stay grounded in God's Word.
They also take time to acknowledge where their words may have fallen short, sharing the places they wish they had communicated with more clarity, compassion, or care. With humility, they offer an apology to anyone who felt hurt or misunderstood by their conversations, and they talk openly about what they've learned from listening to others' feedback.
Always remember to stay you and stay true.
Questions/topics discussed and answered:
• Why they chose to address the criticism openly and honestly
• What actually is biblical submission?
• What God taught them through public pushback and private reflection
• How to stay rooted in your convictions while still being teachable
AND SO MUCH MORE!

| 0:00.0 | Grant and I just wanted to address kind of what has been going on since a conversation we |
| 0:13.7 | had with a friend on the podcast and we, I guess, should say I, talked about the word submission and it has kind of picked up |
| 0:24.1 | and a lot of people have been talking about it and, you know, it's just kind of grieved our |
| 0:29.5 | hearts and, you know, my heart that there wasn't context around it. And so we really wanted |
| 0:35.3 | to just take some time to really have a conversation. |
| 0:37.7 | We've been talking and praying a lot about it this week. And, you know, what, what does the Bible say? |
| 0:43.1 | What does, you know, what do a lot of people hear when they hear that word? What do they feel when they |
| 0:47.9 | hear that word? And we just want to have a conversation around it. So let's talk about it. |
| 0:52.8 | Let's do that. And first, to say, with so much conversation |
| 0:58.1 | we've had behind closed doors, |
| 1:00.2 | there's been multiple things this year |
| 1:01.4 | that I would say have been hard for us. |
| 1:04.3 | The reason Maddie started this podcast, |
| 1:07.1 | the reason I jump on this podcast, |
| 1:09.2 | the reason we pray so much for this podcast is to help people and to love people. |
| 1:15.1 | And like that is baseline the reason we do this podcast. |
| 1:19.8 | And to know that there have been certain moments where we have said things the wrong way or said things without context or like flippantly or lightly, I think |
| 1:30.1 | we just wanted to say we're sorry. |
| 1:33.8 | And we want to ask for forgiveness for anybody that has seen a clip or a snippet or a headline |
| 1:41.1 | and had no context to hear from us further. And I think that's what we wanted to start |
| 1:46.8 | off by saying is that if you've not felt loved or cared for and what we've said, that is what |
| 1:53.9 | makes us most sad. It's because that's the reason we do this. And we do both feel a call to love the word and preach the word. |
