The world puts a lot of pressure on us. Most of us spend all our days striving to be “perfect” or to be “enough.” But this never-ending toil is draining, and it never leaves us where we think we should be. In her new book The Bright Life, author and Bible teacher Jen Wise looks at how we can overcome this pressure and experience renewed, energetic, and full lives. Jen sits down with Davey to talk about the book and how we can live from a refreshed place and spread that refreshment to the people around us.

My guest for The Happy Hour # 228 is Jen Wise. Jen holds an MA in Theology from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and serves as a child advocate with Compassion International as a part of their Artist and Speaker Team. Jen is happy to spend most days rotating between friends, family, writing, cooking, her neighborhood yoga studio, and being an active part of her home church. Jen and I start off the show talking about how we're all walking around exhausted! It doesn't have to be this way, and Jen gives us practical tips on how we can lessen the weight we all feel, all the time. I loved hearing her share about how her own process of letting things go, and fully resting in the grace God has provided. We also chat about friendships, and how in different seasons it can be hard to prioritize, but that it's possible to continue to nurture those relationships. In the second half of the show, the topic of control takes center stage, and we also talk about eating right, getting enough sleep, and all those "taking care of yourself" things that we tend to push to the side. Don't worry friends, our conversation isn't about shaming - it's just the opposite. Jen encourages us that loosening our grip, trusting God more, and taking care of ourselves, helps us live the meaningful life God intends. {You can listen to the show HERE, and make sure you never miss a Happy Hour by subscribing through your favorite podcast app (ie. iTunes, Stitcher).

Fantasy, sci-fi, and horror. Which of these three has more appeal for you? How are these different from each other and why do we like them (or not like them)? Even though you may have a preference, our discussion finds that the crossover elements can enhance the experience with favorite pieces of work. However, why do people tend to steer away from one particular category? Is it too broad or too technical and realistic? Listen and find out if you agree! The panel: Jen Wise, Mindy Inlow, Ann Laabs, and Kayce Taylor
This month, the ladies of SciFi4Chicks discuss the recent fates of two iconic women: Wonder Woman and Carrie Fisher. Nearly two months after being "hired" by the United Nations to help raise awareness of Goal 5, which seeks to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls, she is fired for "objectifying women" in her scantily clothing, basically being a pin-up girl. But let's ignore why she is a good role model for women. And speaking of role models for women, as the world mourns the loss of Carrie Fisher, what is the fate of the Star Wars films? Lucasfilms has made an official statement on the use of CGI, so how will they handle her death? We have theories and of course, many opinions. The panel: Jen Wise, Mindy Inlow, Sonya Rodriguez, Ann Laabs
In this episode, the Chicks -- and Jeff! -- turn their attention to that most confusingly reviled summer remake, Ghostbusters. Spanning from analysis of how "cosplay-ish" the trailer felt to what downright just worked in this film, every angle is dissected. Did it live up to our fond memories of the original 80's classic? Or are our childhoods legitimately ruined and our psyches irrevocably damaged? How did the media's treatment of every tiny reveal, from the original announcement to the opening weekend, help or hinder? Everything is on the table and nothing is safe -- except Mike Hat, the anxiety dog. Listen in on our round-table ramblings, and comment to let us know your thoughts! The panel: Jen Wise, Carolyn Wise, Mindy Inlow, Angie Fiedler Sutton, Heather French, Sonya Rodriguez, Kathryn Sanders, Jeff Hackworth
Forget Game of Thrones, this year it was more like Game of Queens. The sixth season not only brought back recurring characters, but it brought out the strongest female characters we have seen yet, and what better way to celebrate the women of Game of Thrones, than to have the Chicks dish out on their favorite females? This episode, we delve into the world created by George R. R. Martin and relive our favorite moments, as well as the more unsavory ones. The Chicks talk about what gives a strong character her strength, what depths she’ll have to go, some fan theories, and much much more. So pour yourself a glass of wine, breath in the last of the Summer air, for Winter has arrived. The panel: Allison Isberg, Jen Wise, Kiri Evins
