Education
Ready to catch up on what has been happening in our lives? We have so much to share with you and a lot has happened in the last few weeks. We’d had so many different guests, meaning Jesse and I have not had a chance to have a conversation so we have a lot of updates. Our biggest update is the toilet situation. Jesse and I recap what happened with our toilet and now we have a new toilet. We banter about our ages a few times. I had my first in-person speaker event after two years of being online, which had some obstacles but God was so faithful and lots of people were praying for me and it was really amazing. Did you know that potato chips help your throat when you lose your voice? Me either. I had an accidental exposure to an allergy but everything turned out well. Jesse and I talk about what we have been reading, or in my case not reading. I don’t know what you call: book-whiplash or something because I keep starting books and then not finishing them. We also talk about a few different kinds of apps to use for listening to books. Our main topic for today is, love languages. Jesse and I picked up a Date Night in a Box to reconnect and have some quality time together. This particle box was about love languages. They provide a quiz for each person to fill out and it is really great for conversations in and about your relationship. It can be a refresher for you and your partner and what made it really great, is that it provided practical ways to apply each love language. You always need to keep the spark going in your relationship, it is never ending and ever evolving but you must put the work into, otherwise you may lose that connection. In This Episode [00:34] - Welcome to The Crystal Paine Show. [03:26] - We have discovered the price tag of toilets. [04:41] - I got a really special birthday gift. [05:37] - I went to Chino, California and spoke at the Fresh Ground of Faith event. [08:01] - It was my first night in over 18 months that I didn’t have a baby in the room. [08:40] - I am speaking at the same type of conference, Fresh Ground of Faith with Jennifer Rothchild [09:10] - Also, I got to do axe throwing. Which I had never done before. [10:26] - Jesse do you have any updates for us, on anything, any books you are reading or listening too? [13:30] - I do have something that is saving my life. [14:27] - Okay so we are going to talk about love languages today. [16:10] - This was a hard quiz because it wasn’t multiple choice, it was two options. And you chose which one you related to more. [17:26] - ‘Cause I think it’s so easy for us to assume that other people feel loved in the same way we do. [18:41] - So your (Jesse) love language, is the ones you relate to the most are physical touch and gifts. [19:18] - For me it is acts of service and words of affirmation. [21:59] - I think that for sure what has changed is your (Jesse) understanding of how to show me love. [23:18] - I think it is really really important, if you are in a relationship; a close relationship with someone that you understand their love language. [24:41] - Well and each of those areas is a way of connection and what you want to make sure is that you have a really good connection established. [25:18] - It’s like lighting a match, it’s just like igniting a little spark.
