Speaking of Jesus: The Art of Not-Evangelism
by Carl Medearis

Is it okay to speak of Jesus?  What is “not-evangelism”? Follow along and become as convinced as I was by Medearis’ message admonishing us to: “Be nice, and talk about Jesus all the time.”

How can I keep myself from writing?

After writing this blog for the past eight months I decided to sit down and flesh out my goals for it, assess whether I was meeting them and then decide whether to make any changes.  In the end, I celebrated all over again the fact that I have a space for the words that are bubbling up in me.

The Hate U Give
by Angie Thomas

This month we were searching for another “really good read”, and we found one in this compelling tale that was born from the uncomfortable realities of police shootings.  Pick up a copy of Thomas’ debut work and allow yourself to question and wonder at the perspectives portrayed through her characters.

The Eye Chart

While watching one of my sons swim the other day I made a new friend, though not before I had judged him at least twice.  This is one of
those stories -- where we realize we got it wrong and we are filled with regret for our unkind thoughts...and how later we resolve to stop ourselves from letting it happen again.
