J.R. Briggs: The Art of Asking Better Questions: Pursuing Stronger Relationships, Healthier Leadership, and Deeper Faith

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—and 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's not a single area of your life—not one—where improving the quality of the questions you ask won't improve the quality of your life and the lives of those around you.
3. We don't have a shortage of information; we have a shortage of wisdom, curiosity, and wonder. What's 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're 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—and 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't 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.
