Is Self-Improvement Making Us Worse Friends?

Is Self-Improvement Making Us Worse Friends?

This episode started with a golf course pro shop nap, a nematode crisis, Meadowbrook nostalgia, and a turtle getting absolutely launched by a golf cart.Naturally, it turned into a conversation about optimization culture, community, pleasure, the Southern Baptist Convention, Robert’s Rules of Order, cooperative missions, the need for a one-minute dance party during business sessions, non-licensed financial advice, and the spiritual dangers of eating five sleeves of Ritz crackers before riding a roller coaster.In this episode of Quite Frankly, Beau and Brett talk about whether self-improvement culture is making people worse friends, why community matters more than perfectly optimized recovery scores, what it means to live for something bigger than yourself, and why the church needs both conviction and joy.Also discussed: Meadowbrook glory days, Myrtle Beach golf retreats, Secret SBC motions, the Martin Amendment, Shane & Shane photography, international missionaries, Elon Musk stock market fears, and the full armor of the Lord, baby.Listen on Spotify:⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/48Dq262W476WbTWzIKaCma⁠More Quite Frankly:⁠https://fleaubo.com/quite-frankly-podcast
