Roxy and Katelyn grew up in the white evangelical American heartland. Both were warned moving to a supposed bastion of secular culture would be dangerous to their faith. While navigating a city where people sleep in on Sunday mornings and the chaste motto “true love waits” isn’t a thing, the two have found a renewed, vibrant faith that has been both strengthened and stretched in the metropolis.

  • Such a safe place

    I have only been listening to this podcast for <1 year (thanks for visiting the Holy Post Katelyn), but I can’t express how at home it feels. Katelyn and Roxy manage to exude fun, respect, and honesty in all their conversations, and I have found myself learning and growing. I have listened to this podcasts in vulnerable moments and felt safe. Thanks!

  • Apocra-FUN!

    So glad to hear the Apocrafun reading series will become a regular feature! Really insightful look at some books I’d rather forget, lol. Pairs perfectly with the regularly scheduled Saved by the City eps, which I listen to every week. Eager for more!
