For this episode, Justin and Courtney opened up their life to a live audience. An audience member who was present voiced their desire for understanding - they wanted to know what it was like: Raising sons, recent travel and more!
Today's episode covers a range of topics from Napa Valley, to reacting to some wild viral church moments. We discuss our top 5 recommendations for places to eat and drink in the Napa area - you'll want to take notes on those hidden gems. We also unpack Cam's 7th birthday celebrations and my approach to focusing more on experiences over big parties these days. I break down why creating those core memories is so important. Then we dive into a couple of viral church clips that have been making the rounds - the Keion Henderson situation and another preacher demanding people lift their hands or get out. We analyze the context, discuss having discernment as a pastor, and explore whether we should be governing the church more like businesses. I give my hot take that praise breaks are not an excuse for bad preaching. You'll want to hear Courtney's perspective on respecting the leadership's role too. We also promote our upcoming relationship conference Remix on June 7-8 here in the Bay, including a live recording of this very podcast on June 8th at 3pm Pacific! Make sure to join us for that. Finally, I plug my book "Necessary Endings" and the book talk event I'm doing on June 19th to really unpack that journey. Courtney gives a glowing review that might just convince you to pick it up. So sit back and join us as we sip some wine, discuss Napa delicacies, analyze those jaw-dropping church clips, and get you hyped for our upcoming events! #Podcast #LifeUpdates #NapaValley #DiningReviews #ChurchReactions #KeionHenderson #RaisingHands #RelationshipConference #BookTalk #NecessaryEndings

I'm Welcome to Made for Mondays with Justin and Courtney. We're excited to have you tuning in today because, as always, we believe that you own your Mondays, not the other way around. In this episode, we dive into a thought-provoking topic about work and how to avoid hating your job.We kick things off by discussing a recent movie we watched on Hulu, "The Mill," starring Lil Rel. Without giving too much away, it's a story of unexpected twists and challenges at the workplace. We explore the notion that many people don't truly love their jobs, and how the initial admiration can turn into frustration over time.We draw inspiration from James Baldwin, who once said, "I don't dream of labor." Most of us work for financial freedom and a certain lifestyle, but there's a fine line between work being a means to an end and becoming an all-consuming presence in our lives.As we delve into this topic, we encourage you to consider what's written on your own "bucket" – the things you seek from your job. Is it a specific title, a certain salary, or other perks? Sometimes, we find that once we've achieved those goals, we're left wanting more or feeling unfulfilled.To find contentment at work, we suggest destroying old narratives, adapting to your role, and understanding your capacity for growth. We also recommend broadening your horizons by reading, listening to podcasts, and planning your next travel adventure. Recognizing the vast world outside your immediate surroundings can be a powerful perspective shift.Remember, work is just a part of life, and it shouldn't define your happiness. Join us as we explore how to redefine your relationship with your job and find a healthy balance between your professional and personal life. Let's make the most of our Mondays and strive to enjoy the journey, no matter where it takes us.

Welcome to Made for Mondays A Reason to Live Death was more than a thought, it was a wish. I attempted suicide in 2014 for the second time. The first was for attention in 2012. The second was to die. In 2014, I was a second-year master's student at a very rough time in my life. Life was a mess. One Night I decided to end my misery by slitting my wrists. I was desperate. I just wanted someone to see me, hear me, care for me, and love me. I hated everything about me. I felt I had no reason to live. I did it. And then I woke up! Questions to Consider: How Are you? What Brings you Joy? What are you expecting God to share with you this week?
