These days have been… Read more

Yesterday, Bug and I went over to Starkville to cheer for my Mississippi State Bulldogs at Davis Wade Stadium. I have been looking forward to this trip for some time – and it was wonderful to be on campus, enjoying gameday, ringing our cowbells, and cheering on our team. (Just getting to go roam my… Read more

Despite a puny start to my week, I am so stoked to share some wonderful book news: with our SCWC publishing, I’ll be reworking my existing ebook, Grace, Somgs, Scripture, and Spoons, and adding 20 more meditations to it – and it will be released in paperback next year in time for conference. I am… Read more
