Synopsis
Part 1
Our host has no significant other and has never felt so good about Valentine’s Day — We don’t have to wait to be happy — The Great Western Disease affects singles and marrieds alike — If you don’t have your blessings, just being righteous isn’t enough to secure them — If all you need to be happy is to do the right thing, how come there are miserable people at church? — We need to give our all to the right things — The right things are more than just the standards — Lessons from the temple — Understand how habits are part of how you are designed to function — You can reclaim the joy you should be having in your journey — Our pain doesn’t make us any more special than anyone, but part of it isn’t necessary — Change the way you think, and half your problems are gone — The solution is not getting married or getting more service or more church — Your focus determines your reality
Part 2
Memories of pity party advocacy in Sunday School — Pity parties bring you closer to Christ? — Where’s my duct tape? My head’s gonna explode! — We’re living in a telestial world, so there’ll always be idiots — We’re here to have experiences, some of which will be negative, but that doesn’t mean we have to bathe ourselves in them — Our Savior loves us so immensely, He suffered for us — Without the Atonement, the pity party would be the thing to do — Elder Bednar’s first General Conference address is a classic on tender mercies — Pity parties are nowhere in our Heavenly Father’s plan — When you truly believe Christ, you can be free
He has a 6000-year track record of keeping His promises — He’ll provide the way by showing us new ways of thinking — We can be free when we adopt those new ways of thinking — Everything behind the program and the efforts of our host began in 2010 when the Brethren revised the Handbook

Part 3
Memories of getting shut down in 2010 — Too many leaders don’t know how to minister effectively to singles — They think ministering just means planning activities — The needs of singles won’t be met by completing a calendar — Our host describes the process of realizing a new way of thinking — All you need to do to access the joy around everyday is to choose it
The difference is like night and day — You can hear it in the voice of our host — Joy in the Journey Radio is about filling singles everywhere with positive energy — You don’t need to wait to be happy — Learn how to let go, and you can be free
