Today we take a break from our current podcast interview series to have Chris and Jen join us for the 100th episode of our Relational Skills in Real Life Podcast!

In this special episode the Courseys share how they feel called by God "to live what we teach and train and tell the story of it." Doing this is vulnerable because they still make mistakes along the way, but so many have been encouraged by watching them transparently share their journey. They want others to know that God is tender with weakness and often does His best work in us in our difficulties.
