Episode 39 - Jeanette
I don’t know where to begin this conclusion. It feels like a daunting task. I am not a naturally gifted, empathetic writer like Levi. I don’t have profound, deep thoughts like Craig. One thing I know for sure, though, is that my husband is a different person from the nineteen-year-old I met in...

Episode 38 - Who The Son Sets Free Is Free Indeed (The Hoffman Process)
“You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; you have loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness, that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever!” Psalm 30: 11-12 I saw this most clearly after they asked us to become as children…

Episode 37 - Mind Chatter (& The True You)
Does your brain ever turn off? Can you check out of it? Is it telling you positive things or negative things? It recently occurred to me that "normal" doesn't exist, because my normal isn't yours. My mind exploded when I realized that Jeanette could shut hers off when she cleans the house. She…

Episode 36 – Refining Fires (And Saltine Crackers)
Pain is an incredible teacher. If only it didn’t hurt so much. It occurred to me while reimagining all of these journal entries for this project that I haven’t written much about my mom. The definition of “take for granted” is to fail to properly appreciate (someone or something), especially as a...
-
Episode 35 – Enjoy the Moment (And Don't Record It)
Our constant need to capture and share every waking hour of our lives is making us miss it entirely. Everyone wants to show everyone else what they’re doing. We want to say we’ve been there. We’ve done it. In the process, we miss being there. We miss doing it. We share the present at its own...
-
Episode 34 – It Is Better To Give Than To Receive (On Bucket Lists)
I get excited about seeing other people get excited. The trip my uncle afforded my dad and me inspired our family to pay his kindness forward to one of our friends – David Dean. In 2016, the Cubs made it to the World Series for the first time in over one-hundred years. I don’t know a bigger fan...
-
Episode 33 – How We Love (On Identifying & Breaking Patterns)
Every adult, to one degree or another, functions from negative patterns that were ingrained in them during childhood. To break free from those patterns - to establish new, healthy ways of being - we first need to identify what they are. In other words: we're diving headfirst into the deep end. If...
-
Episode 32 - My Vows (And Our Victories)
One night, my wife and I were talking about what we should do for our twentieth wedding anniversary. We decided it'd be fun (and far funnier) to throw a massive celebration for our nineteenth, instead. Who the hell throws a random nineteenth wedding anniversary party? We had a blast. We invited…

Episode 31 – Sexpectations (Get Some)
I'll start here: I was a virgin when I married Jeanette. She wasn't. Given the "purity-ring" idealism I'd been raised with and the resulting expectations about the way life "should happen," I almost allowed that reality to ruin our dating relationship before we said I do. How many people are in…
more -
Episode 30 – I Only Have Eyes for You (& Your Penis)
Beyond our situation, what we’ve learned through our work at XXXchurch is that wives, in general, have a difficult time believing that they live up to the women their husbands see every day – on the street, on a billboard, watching porn. The comparisons eat away at a woman’s confidence because at...
-
Episode 29 – Tics (& Trials & Parenting Through Pain)
In 2014, I wrote the following email to a woman at the Tourette Association of America. -- To Whom It May Concern, First, though I am writing this letter to you today, I would ask that you do not share the following story publicly. At least for the time being. Last week, I wrote a friend of mine…
more -
Episode 28 - The Opposite Sex (A Lesson Learned During A Private Massage In A Hotel Bedroom)
Hotel properties, in my opinion, have the best spas, and especially in tourist-trap cities like Vegas. Jeanette and I enjoy the Aria and the Palazzo, and of course, the Cosmo was where my "official" Spa Day encounter with the Lord took place a few years back. Anyway, this time around, Jeanette…

Episode 27 – Wear One Hat (Give The Rest To Tech)
I wanted to close out this Work & Workmanship section with something a bit more pragmatic– less “self-reflective journal entry” and more “practical thoughts on getting ideas launched and work accomplished.” As mentioned previously, I work with a ton of solopreneurs–people who set up and run...
-
Episode 26 - An Instagram Husband (In The Amazon)
People get popular (or–if not popular–discover some measure of success) doing what they love to do. But growth, success and/or popularity involve maintenance, and it doesn’t take long before you’re stuck in the weeds, where working on “maintaining” your passion replaces all that you were…
more -
Episode 25 – Just Say No (To No)
How often do we dream without ever even trying to chase after our desires, quenched by insecurities that keep us from giving ourselves permission to start? I did my best to silence every no with a yes. To look past the fears that arose, and the what ifs? To replace can't with can try....
-
Episode 24 - Not So Talented Shows (Yet)
I’ve always hated talent shows, and I’ve always thought that we should probably be calling them something more appropriate, like: Not-So-Talented-Shows. Like, “Hey, would you like to come watch me be not-so-talented on stage tonight?” That was before my newfound interest in dance. I’m now two…
more -
Episode 23 – Alice Cooper Was Right (School Sucks)
Our education system is broken, and with over one trillion dollars in U.S. College debt, I think it’s a waste of time and money. Of course, God decided it’d be fun to give me a daughter who is a Number One on the Enneagram – the Perfectionist – who wants to go to college because it’s the right...
-
Episode 22 – The Babysitter Club (How To Be A Responsible Adult)
My question for you – grown-ass-adult that you are – is: whether or not you’ve got a job that affords you the privilege of choosing your employer… are you capable of being a reliable employee? Can you hit a deadline (without having to be chased down)? Can you be counted upon to reach a goal? Are...
