In this final episode of Chapter 2, the ladies take a reflective journey through their experiences with Christmas Eve services at "Come As You Are."
Melissa shares the immense pressure she felt to constantly outdo herself, striving for perfection under Pastor Tom's watchful eye. Meanwhile, Brandi opens up about the challenges of making sure the children are seen but never heard in these "family" services. In a rare act of boundary setting, Amanda shares that she never attended a single Christmas Eve service—an action that shocks her friends and challenges the church community's norms.
Join Melissa, Amanda, and Brandi as they unpack the complexities of holiday traditions, faith, and expectations.
