Hi, I'm Susie Larson. Thanks for listening to this podcast from Susie Larson Live.

It's only just a matter of it's only just a matter of it's like to see. So the back

grow is you glide because morning just won't do dance. You don't have to know how to ever since him but since we've got you

welcome to cissy larsen live always on her to get to spend this time with you in fact i look forward

to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk that

deep in your understanding of god's word and that heightens your awareness of his very real presence

in your life. Well, you've been through a lot, you know, you've maybe found a way to navigate

the times, but have you found a way to celebrate the winds, the special occasions, and maybe the

ways that God has shown up in your story? Sometimes I think when you walk through enough hurt,

loss, or disappointment, it's easy to

develop kind of a locked elbow posture where you're always bracing for impact. You know, we stay

guarded, we maybe continually awfulize or catastrophize or personalized. But what if God has a better way

for you and I to live? And what if he intends to add joy in celebration to your days?

Well, marriage and family

therapist, Nicole Zazowski, joins me today to talk about her amazing book. I love this book. I love the

idea of this book. I love the title of this book. What if it's wonderful? Release your fears,

choose joy, and find the courage to celebrate. Got a handful of copies to give away, and I want

you to get one if you find yourself

bracing for impact, or if you've been numbed out, or if you're just really coming awake

and coming alive and wanting to know, how do I enter into this, the fullness of fellowship

with God in a way, where joy does mark my steps, even in the midst of such turbulent times.
