Thank you for joining us today! We have really enjoyed preparing this episode for you. Here are the basic notes that we used; however, if you know us at all, you know we chased a few rabbit trails. Nevertheless, this is a basic guide.

Also, here's a link to our book "re:framed: Reframing our Stories One Word at a Time" by Tanya Smith and Jennifer McCroddan: https://amzn.to/3MHRuB4

Intro: Today, we are going to pose 3 different doors to you today and ask you three questions. have you tried to go back through a door that is closed, have you tried to open a closed door by force or manipulation? Are you waiting for someone else to open a door for you?   Stick around with us today, we are going to get personal and ask several questions about pride, our taste, and our preferences---in other words --what is behind door number 1, 2, or 3. So, let's MAKE A PODCAST!   Pop Quiz: Tanya, can you name these song's titles and artists or finish the lyrics...  

1. Wouldn't like to get my love caught in a slamming door.........(how about some information, please)
2. Sometimes I thank God..... (for unanswered prayer)
3. Does enchantment pour our every door? (No, it’s just on the street where you live)

  Biblical References: Noah--God himself shut the door  (why did God shut the door?)

1. sometimes we know we a door needs to be closed, but we lack the strength
2. "Isn't it good the Lord to take the responsibility away from Noah?" Jasa Babb

    Movies and Books:

1. (Can you picture these scenes in your mind?) The Wizard of Oz...Dorothy on the farm, holding Toto, trying to open the cellar door to get to safety? A few scenes later, she is opening the door to her home, and the scene goes from black and white to color; later in the movie, Dorothy and her friends knock on the door in Oz and are refused.
2. Probably one of the most selfish scenes ever in a movie is when Kate Winslet (we love you, Kate) refuses to share the door with Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic.
3. One of the most famous doors is the wardrobe door in "The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe."

    Door #1: Why do they turn around and go back through a door that is closed What do we have behind door number one? It's someone standing there with their face smashed. They were walking so hard and fast over the threshold when the door slammed.  Jasa--"faceprint is on the door."  Now they're reacting. What's your first, second, and third reaction when a proverbial door is slammed in your face? Grief? Shock? Anger? Shame?  The door failed to open. The person did not fail. The opportunity failed. There's a big difference there. Have you ever accidentally tried to open someone else's car door b/c you thought it was your car? I saw a man close an open car door Monday at Home Depot. Minutes later a girl came out and seemed to be shocked the door was closed and not open and could not get into her car.  She began calling someone on her cell, and I had so many questions.   Jordan says- "I don't question it. I assume that was part of the plan to get me to go the next place anyway. Walk away from a slammed door and move on.  Stop forcing things."     Door #2 They stand and will it to open (force or manipulation) Sometimes the door was never meant to be open. We can spend a lot of time and energy trying to figure out if it is the right door, right time and why we cannot open it. Is it something in us?  That person has a choice. To set up camp in front of the door and try every day to get to open, or walk 5 feet down to the door that is open and waiting for them to walk through.  Why won't they go? Sure, the door looks different. What they can't see on the other side of the slammed door is that its pure chaos.  The open door is a wonderland of hope and opportunity.     Door #3 They stand there waiting for someone else to open the door. No one is coming to open this door for you. Sometimes we think we are to be waiting, but we are actually to grow. There is a huge difference between being patient and being stubborn.   Jen: Tanya preaches to me   Close: We want to leave you today with a smart and simple question. This question is posed to us by C.S. Lewis --here is an excerpt from the book "Mere Christianity":   “The hall is a place to wait in, a place from which to try the various doors, not a place to live in. For that purpose the worst of the rooms (whichever that may be) is, I think, preferable. It is true that some people may find they have to wait in the hall for a considerable time, while others feel certain almost at once which door they must knock at. I do not know why there is this difference, but I am sure God keeps no one waiting unless He sees that it is good for him to wait. When you do get into your room you will find that the long wait has done you some kind of good which you would not have had otherwise. But you must regard it as waiting, not as camping. You must keep on praying for light; and, of course, even in the hall, you must begin trying to obey the rules which are common to the whole house. And above all you must be asking which door is the true one; not which pleases you best by its paint and panelling. In plain language, the question should never be: 'Do I like that kind of service?' but 'Are these doctrines true: is holiness here? Does my conscience move me towards this? Is my reluctance to knock at this door due to my pride, or my mere taste, or my personal dislike of this particular door-keeper?'   When you have reached your own room, be kind to those who have chosen different doors and to those who are still in the hall. If they are wrong they need your prayers all the more; and if there are your enemies, then you are under orders to pray for them. That is one of the rules common to the whole house.” ― C.S. Lewis     'Are these doctrines true: Is holiness here? Does my conscience move me towards this? Is my reluctance to knock at this door due to my pride, or my mere taste, or my personal dislike of this particular doorkeeper?'          

 

 

 

 

 

 

Part 2 Wedding Recap Episode   We finally managed to make our way through the reception - the beautiful, entertaining, fun-filled, love-filled reception. Sandi Patti and her husband, Don, entertained us beautifully with a love medley.  Point of Grace and Heather Payne rocked the dance floor with Boondocks, and we swooned over Scott Krippayne’s singing and playing.  No stone was left unturned. And then we formed an exit way of sparklers to usher Jasa and Cliff out of their wedding day at Amy Grant’s farm and onto their plane to Hawaii for three weeks! 

 

Jennifer, Jarrett, and Jordan joined me to recap it all, as well as discuss some of our super fun finds and food in Franklin, Tennessee. 

 

Thank you so much for spending some of your time with us today. We sure do appreciate it - we’re genuinely humbled, actually. Also, if you like The Superlatively Yes Podcast, Please rate and review us on Apple.

Jasa’s Wedding Recap Episode Part One  

We’re a little over a week out from the ceremony, but we will treasure it forever. Jasa was stunning - DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS! Cliff was handsome and all smiles. I hope you can visit our Instagram and Facebook accounts to see it!

 

Who was there? Who joined the wedding celebration at Amy Grant’s Farm? Sandi Patti and her husband, Don, both performed for us. Point of Grace performed several songs, and Heather Payne sang Jasa down the aisle. Scott and Katy Krippayne flew in on a red-eye from Greece. Scott accompanied Sandi Patti, Point of Grace, and Heather Payne on the keys and sang an original song for us at the reception (which we will discuss with you next week!)

 

Cliff and Jasa hosted a meet-and-greet before the Saturday afternoon wedding on Friday evening. The weather, the wedding, the entertainment, and the excitement was perfect beyond compare. God truly blessed every little detail to make this wedding SUPERLATIVELY breathtaking and memory-making. The musical, I mean the wedding, was utterly dreamy. 

 

In this episode, the Pod Squad: Tanya, Jarrett, Jennifer, and Jordan, get together to recap the meet and greet and wedding. We find ourselves meandering off on rabbit trails per usual. And surprise! You will hear from Jasa and Cliff, who are spending the next three weeks in Hawaii! 

 

Thank you for spending some of your time with us. We genuinely appreciate and humbly appreciate the gift of your presence.

Assignments Episode

Hi friends! Thank you so much for joining us today. Jen and I are discussing the topic of "assignments." What are you doing that you never saw coming? Also, we ask a question for you to consider: "Are you plowing the wrong ground?" 

We've been working through this topic for years - literally. We also wrote about it our book, "re:framed." If you can't tell, we're pretty fascinated about it and would love to hear from you about your assignment.  

We'll be here next week with the Wedding Recap episode. We sure appreciate the time you choose to spend with us. Feel free to reach out anytime!

So much love! Tanya

Jasa and the Symphony Podcast notes

Welcome to today’s episode! We powered through a very loud Arkansas thunderstorm to record this podcast and, at one point, thought the rapture was upon us. Jasa and Cliff enjoyed The Music of John Williams with the Nashville Symphony in Franklin, Tennessee, and you will absolutely love her recap. She also attended yet another shower, possibly the last before her wedding day. I am planning for Shawn’s birthday and will share some gift ideas with you. Also, I found the cutest egg chair on a Wal-Mart run.  Basically, we’re all over the place on this episode, but so happy to be all over the place together and with you.

32 Days Until Jasa's Wedding

This episode is a gem, thanks to Jasa. Jasa tells us the rest of the story when the audio keeps rolling after the goodbyes.

It turns out to be one of my all-time favorite surprises. This bonus conversation exemplifies the Jasa I have been very excited to share with you. She is such an excellent teacher. I hope it blesses you as much as it blesses me.

The days are passing fast and furiously, and Jasa, being an Enneagram 7, loves the hustle and bustle of it all. I'm a 9, just along for the ride and offering all of my moral support and my best cheerleader moves.
