Join me today as I chat with the beautiful lady and best-selling author Chelsea Smith who gives us a lifeline to ‘I Do’ Today: A 52-Week Guide to the Marriage You’ve Been Waiting For

Do you dream of having one of “those” marriages–a marriage full of connection, trust, and laughter? A marriage that gets better year by year? Whether you’ve been married a few months or a few decades, the challenges of marriage–like finances, kids, grief, sex, and even everyday annoyances–might make that dream feel far away. But it doesn’t have to feel that way.

After twenty-five years of marriage, Chelsea Smith knows that the best way for a marriage to thrive is by taking it one day, one decision, one conversation at a time. In “I Do” Today, she gets you and your spouse talking and growing together in life-changing ways. Each week, you’ll explore a new topic through:

  • Short readings with real-life stories that offer validation, hope, and motivation
  • Reflection prompts and conversation starters that go deep without being daunting
  • Activity ideas to bring you closer together (and have fun along the way!)
  • Simple, easy-to-follow steps for strengthening your emotional and physical connection

“I Do” Today helps you and your spouse actively choose each other again and again as together, day by day, you create the marriage you’ve always wanted.

J.R. Briggs: The Art of Asking Better Questions: Pursuing Stronger Relationships, Healthier Leadership, and Deeper Faith

Join me today as I chat with and best-selling author JR Briggs who gives us a lifeline to The Art of Asking Better Questions!

What he teaches us: There are few things in life he’s more passionate about than asking great questions—and that is teaching others to ask better questions.

J.R.’s Wisdom:
1. The quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask God, yourself, and others.
2. There’s not a single area of your life—not one—where improving the quality of the questions you ask won’t improve the quality of your life and the lives of those around you.
3. We don’t have a shortage of information; we have a shortage of wisdom, curiosity, and wonder. What’s needed is the kindling of a desire for and ability to ask the right questions at the right time in the right situation for the right
reason.
4. If we want information, Google it. But if what we’re after is wisdom and connection, we need questions.
5. Jesus was a brilliant question-asker. In the Gospels, Jesus asked over 300 questions. He was asked over 180 questions—and yet he only directly answered five of them. There’s much to be learned about what, when, where,
and how he asked questions.

Here’s what we explore in the interview:

1.) Why questions are so important (but why we don’t ask them very much)

2.) How questions impact our faith

3.) Leadership and the art of asking better
questions

4.) Ridiculously practical ways to ask better questions.
