Have you ever wondered if your singleness is your fault? Like maybe you’re too this, not enough that, or just plain missing the secret ingredient? In this episode, we explore the real (and often unspoken) question behind our struggle with being single: Did I do something wrong… or what?

We take a look at Jesus' response in John 9, debunk the blame that society and the church sometimes throw at singles, and share our own honest reflections. Spoiler: Singleness isn’t a punishment—and God’s not holding out on you.

What happens when the longing for children meets the reality of singleness—and modern science offers a way forward? In this episode of The Route 77 Podcast, we explore the complex and emotional question: Should a single person pursue parenthood through IVF, artificial insemination, or other fertility options?

We’re not talking about single parenting through divorce or loss—we’re talking about intentionally creating a child outside of marriage. Is it just a technological advancement, or are we bypassing God’s design for family?

Join Natasha, Monique, and David as they wrestle with Scripture, share personal stories, and ask the tough but necessary questions about ethics, desire, and trusting God when the dream of parenthood feels just out of reach.

Saying “yes” to God’s will is one thing—but are you actually cooperating with Him, or just going along grudgingly? In this week’s episode, Natasha and Monique unpack what it really looks like to partner with God, not passively or forcefully, but with trust, obedience, and the right attitude. From group project analogies to biblical stories (and even a taekwondo teaching moment or two), this conversation dives into how we can live out our faith in action—especially in our singleness.

If you’ve ever struggled with feeling stuck, striving too hard, or waiting passively for God to “make a move,” this episode is for you.

Is it wrong to want something deeply—even marriage—if you still say you want God's will above all? In this episode of the Route 77 Podcast, we explore the tension between longing and surrender, asking what it really means to want God's will when your heart is aching for more. Natasha and Monique share candidly about prayer, trust, waiting, and the freedom that comes when you stop trying to manage outcomes and simply walk in faith. Whether you're in a season of waiting or wrestling with desire, this episode invites you to shift your focus back to the One who sees the whole picture.

"Is it selfish to treat yourself to a solo dinner or take a quiet day just for you? In this episode of the Route 77 Podcast, we’re talking all about dating yourself — a trend that's growing in the self-care world — and asking whether it aligns with a Christian perspective.
We explore the difference between healthy rest and self-indulgence, how to enjoy God’s good gifts without making them idols, and why it’s okay (and even good) for singles to take themselves out with gratitude and purpose.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for enjoying your own company or unsure where the line is between self-care and selfishness, this one’s for you."

Grief has many faces—and some of them look unfamiliar when you're single. In this honest and heartfelt episode, Natasha and Monique talk about the unique ways singles experience grief, especially when they've lost a spouse or are suddenly navigating life alone again. From the pain of widowhood and divorce to the questions no one prepares you for, this conversation touches on the reality of mourning, the hope we have in Christ, and the challenge of not letting grief isolate us.

Whether you're walking through loss or supporting someone who is, this episode offers gentle truth, practical encouragement, and a reminder: death may feel like the end, but it's not the end of the story.

Death is something we all have to face—but as single people, the questions and fears can feel a little different. Will anyone be there when I’m dying? Who will grieve me? Am I prepared for the end of life—spiritually, emotionally, and practically?

In this heartfelt episode, Natasha, Monique, and David open up about recent experiences with grief and the quiet fears that often come with singleness. From aging and end-of-life care to eternal hope and the example of Christ’s own suffering, this conversation is honest, comforting, and grounded in Scripture.

Whether you’re grieving a loved one, preparing for the future, or simply sitting with questions about life and death, this episode offers encouragement, perspective, and peace in the midst of the unknown.

We’ve all heard them—those well-meaning comments meant to “encourage” singles: “Don’t worry, I knew someone who got married at 62!” or “Just enjoy this season and work on yourself.” In this episode of The Route 77 Podcast, Natasha and Monique get real about the emotional impact of these platitudes, why they often do more harm than good, and how we can respond with honesty and grace. From personal stories to biblical reflections, we unpack how to reframe longing, redirect focus, and gently challenge the cultural narratives around singleness. Whether you're single or know someone who is, this conversation is a must-listen.
