Show Description: I was flying on my way to Phoenix this week reading The Atlantic and I came across an article by Lori Gottlieb titled Marry Him! The article is basically a charge to women to stop looking for Mr. Right and settle down with Mr. Good Enough. But it got me thinking - and it got my 25-year old, single Producer really thinking - about if people should settle more often. It's an interesting question and I am looking for you to join our conversation.
Also, be sure to read my Producer Andy's 5-part Blog this week devoted to the article.

Quotes to Live By
"Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desire, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased."
-C.S. Lewis
