[@beckyrosenowgartman3445]

I am going to do that- write my 100 things to do, be, and have. Even though I'm 73 it's not too late.😊

[@rachelgarland1881]

Oooookay, I need to see the 25 must read book list!

[@paulanix7561]

Thank you for blessing us!

[@eljesa1962]

God has blessed you and your family. And He has blessed this message and your efforts to help other families out there, you truly are vessels for His glory! I love the vision you guys have for your family and how intentional you are with everything, you truly are investing and I pray God may forever bless the fruits of your labor. You two are filled with wisdom and it truly inspires me! I am engaged to be married and can’t wait to have a family if God blesses us with kids, and if that’s the case I will definitely want to incorporate and take into consideration your wisdom and input! Love you guys my fellow brother and sister in Christ. ❤

Can you do a video about getting your kids ready for getting a bachelor's degree early in life?

[@alexandrachuquillangui6917]

yes please!!!

[@beccaholland3602]

You guys give such value through your videos!! This is one of my favorites! I really enjoyed hearing the specific examples from your list. Especially the family book list. I would love to see yalls family book list!

[@cindyflinchbaugh7155]

Wow, I can't even think of 10. I admire you guys so much that you are investing so much in yourselves, your family and others.

[@iulianasofronia7955]

You 2 are amazing . I cannot believe how young and wise you are . I am much older than you but learning lots from you . I really admire you .

[@thetherapymama6404]

You guys give me so many things to think about. I love how intentional this is. Thank you!

This could be tied into the concept taught in David Allen's book, "Getting Things Done." His book is about productivity and time management. It's a great read. It breaks your "to-do" list or "projects/goals" (anything that isn't a one-and-done task) down into "Next Actions," so when you have a pocket of time, you already have a "next action" you can take. Or breaking those bigger/longer-term dreams/goals down into the next action/step- something you can do today. You can add the things you're talking about to figure out what small steps you can take to keep things moving forward...instead of wasting your time. It's an excellent book. I highly recommend it. I am always motivated and encouraged by you two. I'm excited to sit down and make a list. Thanks again!

This terrifies me. As someone who's life has been completely blindsided twice I can't stress enough how unimportant our ideas of how things should go really is. Even down to enjoying the present moment and wishing it would last forever or holding on to items because you think they'll bring some value. God uses us in many ways. Be prepared to give it all up.

[@ashleyirizarry-diaz6415]

I could listen to you two talk all day, everything you share is so good and details gets me thinking about desires I want for my family that get lost in my brain and I haven’t thought of in years. Thank you so much! Holy work you sharing ad God is using your family to change homes!

[@pellowfamily8569]

Always LOVE your videos!! Thank you for what you do!! (side note: You feel more zoomed in, in this video. Did that bother anyone else? 😀)

[@amandakoppana4509]

This was so encouraging and inspiring! I love how having a bigger vision can lead us to small practical steps we can do today.

[@cominghomewithsusanne]

Great tip! I started a white board today for the family to add things to the list, 1 column for each. I'm excited and curious to see what goes on it. :)

[@annaburrell3918]

Come visit us in Switzerland! :) I just discovered your podcast this year and it has been so encouraging as we've just had our first baby.

[@zekitty1]

Refreshing. That’s the word that comes to my spirit every time I listen to y’all. Thank you.

[@LucianaPelota]

Helpful at any age and stage.

[@kimpreslar303]

Such wise and helpful advice. It IS a blessing to others!!!

[@SimpleGiftsFarmhouse]

This is great! We haven't made a list but we have pretty clear priorities and it really helps with decision-making. My oldest is 14, this would be a great activity to have him do!

[@sabl6381]

I have a 16-month-old and our second on the way, but I enjoy brainstorming family culture and goal ideas now to try and stay ahead of the curve. Thank you!

[@Lmr6789s]

I love this idea so much I can't wait for my husband and I to do this tomorrow for our family thank you! ❤️

[@dailyoccasions9539]

What if you weren’t raised a Christian and your kids are older ??? Can you please interview your parents regarding this subject? If you started at 14 it would be helpful ❤️

[@RSS110387]

Ahh this video is so so good!! Thank you!

[@gretawilliams4045]

great video yall!! Also, i love the acoustics in the background of this one!

[@123lauraashley]

I’ve never heard of this exercise, but it sounds really interesting. I’ll have to try that!

[@evelynfujinaka5645]

Love this concept! Can you talk about how you got your bachelors in high school? What age did you start taking college classes?

[@bethany3914]

Would also love to know this

[@SretanMjesec]

Love this video❤ thank you for idea!

[@HR-rm1dw]

Thank you! Such a great idea!❤

[@laurens8623]

If the kids were enjoying thriving and making friendships and learning teamwork at soccer were you willing to add it to your list and remove something else. Sometimes we need to be open to things not on our list

[@mrsstrople]

Thank you for 5:50 I have been struggling so much with my almost 3 year old and 7 month old. I'm just so worn out

[@Hillariousj]

I’d love to take a look at your 100 book list! I saw on your website that you have book suggestions, but this sounds like a specific list.

[@ashleyirizarry-diaz6415]

Oh please share what your traditions are for the holidays and how to center God in them. We are moving away from the American Halloween, Christmas, thanksgiving because none of them are actually biblical. Looking into the Jewish holy days but it’s all new. Love to hear your thoughts on what the Bible says about the holidays

[@matthewleewillis]

I am now doing this! Thank you for the video! Also, the lighting in this video is pretty off of what you normally do, you guys were a bit washed out. Love your content!

[@kingdomrootedmama]

So what about when you check some off do you replace them with new ones?

[@Emebirhan34]

Thanks for all you do! I was wondering, is this something that you guys created individually and then brought your lists together or created a list of 100 things just for your family!? Thank you

[@madlynchampion8081]

What I understood from the video is that Katie and Elisha each have their own individual lists, and then they made an additional one together for their family that their kids are able to suggest ideas for too! :)

[@MDMD-gw3nn]

You guys are code talking from what i can tell. Do the soccer. Go with the flow. Don't confine yourself to just a hundred things on a list. Let your kids decide for themselves what they are interested in for extra curricular.

[@lauramatos1181]

There’s nothing wrong with limiting your time to what really matters to you at the time. Too many people make their lives too busy that they can’t even enjoy the simple moments and that’s why it’s important to prioritize. I’m sure if their kids were absolutely loving soccer and finding it useful they would have continued on it but it’s not always the case like with our own kids. So parents have to be picky about what we do with our time. If their kids ever wanted to do something different they definitely could in the future.

[@courtneymonroe1210]

Is something wrong with Elijah? He looks different then other videos

[@katieruhrwien9977]

Agreed.

[@Dom-jb3pi]

They sent out their weekly e-mail and mentioned that Elijah was sick.

[@steffa648]

@@Dom-jb3piI get their weekly emails and there was nothing on there about Elisha being sick, but yes I also thought he didn’t look his normal self.

[@jcav7]

I thought the lighting was weird or something.

[@Dom-jb3pi]

@@steffa648 It was the email sent out on September 27th that spoke about him being sick. There was no Thursday video posted last week so maybe this one was recorded around the time he was sick. Not sure but that’s my guess anyway.

[@laurens8623]

Do you consult the Lord with the list

[@beccaholland3602]

Obviously they would
