Intimacy is one of the most talked-about topics in culture, and often one of the least talked-about topics in the church. Join Jeremy Waldridge and Andrea Jordan for a candid conversation about what Scripture actually teaches about intimacy and relationships. After a short talk together, we’ll divide into men’s and women’s groups for a Q&A where the speakers will respond to questions from each group in a safe and respectful environment.
Friday, April 10 at 6:30pm. Please sign up on the church app or website. Bring a Snack or Dessert to Share!

Andrea has been providing licensed mental health services since 2009. Over the years, she’s worked with a wide range of clients—from the homeless and sex industry workers to pastors, elders, and missionaries (and everyone in between). Her specialties include betrayal trauma recovery, sex addiction, sexual abuse recovery, and spiritual abuse recovery. In recent years, Andrea has stepped into public speaking, published writing, and podcasting. She’s also a homeschooling mother of four who loves hiking, gardening, and cooking (so long as her kids handle the dishes!). She thrives on deep conversations about politics, history, sociology, theology, and, of course, all things Tolkien, Hans Christian Andersen and Star Wars!
