72: Why You Should Dream With Your Spouse with Aaron and Jennifer Smith

September 23, 2019

“I’ve dreamt about my spouse, but I’ve never dreamed WITH my spouse.” Does this sound familiar? You aren’t the only ones! In Episode 72, Daniel and Christina interview Aaron and Jennifer Smith (authors of Marriage After God) about why we should be dreaming with our spouse. We also discuss tips and guidelines of how you can start dreaming with your spouse today.

  • Why you should dream with your spouse
  • Practical tips on how to start the process of dreaming with your spouse
  • The importance of creating boundaries while dreaming with your spouse

In a compelling analogy from Episode 198 of our IMbetween Podcast, our guest @davidsunde describes parents as “tour guides” rather than “travel agents” in their children’s faith journeys. Unlike travel agents who arrange logistics from afar, tour guides walk with their children through every high and low. This metaphor highlights the importance of presence and shared experiences in nurturing faith. By being there for the everyday moments, parents can provide authentic guidance and support, much like God’s nature as Emmanuel—“God with us.” It’s an insightful shift in perspective that’s worth reflecting on.

The Role of Numbing Behaviors 🤔🫨

Ever wonder why we turn to quick fixes when we’re stressed or exhausted? In Episode 197 of the IMbetween Podcast, @chris3janssen explains that numbing behaviors like reaching for sugary treats or alcohol provide immediate relief but often at a significant cost. 

We discuss a powerful exercise from her book, “Grace Yourself,” that helps individuals evaluate these numbing patterns and consider healthier alternatives. It’s about gaining awareness and making intentional choices to support our well-being.
