When Life Doesn’t Go as Planned: Elizabeth Woodson
When life doesn’t go as planned, most of us don’t stop living—we just stop expecting much. And maybe we keep waiting for real life to start. Elizabeth Woodson, author of Embrace Your Life, joins Dave and Ann Wilson for a candid conversation about disappointment, comparison, and the exhaustion of postponing happiness until life cooperates. This conversation is for anyone tired of waiting for a different story or pretending the losses don’t sting.
Looking for a way to keep going?
These six conversations are just a glimpse into the type of conversations prompted by our new marriage study, Art of Marriage, currently 25% off through August 31.
If you’ve been craving more—more connection, more understanding, more joy together—Art of Marriage is a powerful next step. This six-session, video-based study dives into the core of how to love our spouse the way God loves us: how to have an unwavering love no matter the challenge, a love full of strength and resiliency, a love that is selfless, a love that forgives because of the grace He has shown us, a love so intimate that you feel fully known and seen, and a love that is a representation of Christ just in how others see you love each other.
You can walk through it with friends, a small group, host an event at your church, or go through it with just the two of you. Learn more or preview session one at ArtofMarriage.com
