Briggs: The Art of Asking Better Questions: Pursuing Stronger Relationships, Healthier Leadership, and Deeper Faith","description":"Join me today as I chat with and best-selling author JR Briggs who gives us a lifeline to The Art of Asking Better Questions! What he teaches us: There are few things in life he's more passionate about than asking great questions\u2014and that is teaching others to ask better questions. J.R.'s Wisdom: 1. The quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask God, yourself, and others. 2. There\u2019s not a single area of your life\u2014not one\u2014where improving the quality of the questions you ask won\u2019t improve the quality of your life and the lives of those around you. 3. We don\u2019t have a shortage of information; we have a shortage of wisdom, curiosity, and wonder. What\u2019s needed is the kindling of a desire for and ability to ask the right questions at the right time in the right situation for the right reason. 4. If we want information, Google it. But if what we\u2019re after is wisdom and connection, we need questions. 5. Jesus was a brilliant question-asker. In the Gospels, Jesus asked over 300 questions. He was asked over 180 questions\u2014and yet he only directly answered five of them. There's much to be learned about what, when, where, and how he asked questions. Here's what we explore in the interview: 1.) Why questions are so important (but why we don\u2019t ask them very much) 2.) How questions impact our faith 3.) Leadership and the art of asking better questions 4.) Ridiculously practical ways to ask better questions. Related Links: WEBSITE: J.R.
