Savor: On Seasons Of Life
Seasons are weird. And I’m not talking fall, winter, spring, and summer — although, those can be weird, too. I’m talking the seasons of life: ever-changing, the ebbs and flows, the beginnings and ends of eras. This season for me has been mostly sweet with a touch of longing.

Boundaries: What They Are & How To Set Them
Last week I talked about boundaries. And while I’m glad I opened up and shared, I didn’t even consider — what if my reader doesn’t know much about boundaries? What if they don’t even know what they are? If you aren’t familiar with boundaries, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. One of my very first…

Getaway Recap: Baylor Homecoming
This weekend was a blast. At first, I was skeptical. I hadn’t been back to a Baylor homecoming or football game since I graduated (#WorstAlumnaEver). I wasn’t sure I would know anyone or be remembered or find friends. I was worried I would feel disconnected and isolated after all that’s happened post-grad. But my silly…

To Stir Or To Steal: On Affection For God
“You have forgotten your first love.” That’s what Revelations 2 says regarding the church of Ephesus. While there is praise to be given to the members of the church, there’s criticism as well. Sometimes I forget my first love, too. I forget all The Lord has done for me: how He’s gone ahead and paved…
