"How Do You Do it?"
05/14/20 • 23 min
This episode begins with a story of our 20-something-year-old daughter (at the time) joining us for dinner, and out of the blue she asked... "How do you do it?" It wasn't a question about, you know, how we "do it." It was more personal than that! It was about how in the midst of our imperfections we still remain friends. Her question was really about how we continue to grow our intimacy with each other as flawed, sometimes hurtful, annoying, and even selfish people. In this episode, we discuss our authentic answer to her curious question. We hope you make it part of your marriage story!
So let's get started!

You Are Enough!
So what is the #1 issue that keeps us from living our best life now? We believe it is the narrative that we are somehow not enough. Most (if not all) difficulties in relationship to yourself and others are rooted in this subtle and destructive narrative. Today, we talk about how to be free from this way of living. We call this episode ALL INCLUSIVE because everyone must learn to navigate their way home to freedom!
So let's get started!

The "Mercy Seat"
We all said, "I do" with the hopes and dreams that our marriages would be different than any relationship we ever had. We wanted a relationship full of connection, joy, trust, and romance; one to truly call sacred. Today we talk about how confession/apology and forgiveness are the keys to making your marriage that sacred place you call "home." What does it mean to sit in the "Mercy Seat" for your husband or wife?
In his book, Breathing Under Water, Richard Rohr says, "The Secret of the Soul is that love is not love unless it is totally free, and grace is not grace unless it is totally free."
This episode will help you discover how the mercy seat can transform your marriage into the relationship that is like no other you have ever had. We are sure of it!
So let's get started!
