Friday Faves
Friends, it’s been a minute. I stopped doing the Friday Five when I somehow gathered almost five jobs and now I find myself with only two (sometimes three). Perhaps in my free time, I’ll be able to read more of the internet and share it with you. I’m not going to promise that this will be a weekly occurrence, but should I find some tweets that I like, I’ll add them in here too. I might even try to write on this thing every so often. They say the blog is dead; I say we can make them cool again.

Here are just a few of my favorite things from the past several months:

I somehow found this poem, “The Opposite Game,” and I recommend it.
I’ve recently become interested in this Instagram feed. Who wants to go in with me to just buy a fixer-upper somewhere in Maine?
This music video is the happiness your Friday needs.

Sometimes I get carried away with thinking I’m independent. I own my own house; I have a grown-up job; I go on solo vacations; I see movies alone. Then the 67-year-old pipes in my own house spring a leak. And water stops flowing in. And everything needs to be...

Tweets of the Month Club | May 2018
Listen, May was not the best of months. Twitter was often an accurate reflection of the hurt, the tragedy, the anger that we all felt. For the purposes of this post, we're going to ignore most of that—not to run away, but because sometimes we just need some laughter...

Hope in the Midst of Lament | Post for LifeWay Women
Photo by Olya /Voloshka on Unsplash It doesn’t take a lot of searching these days to find lament. Rightly so, because we hear constantly of God’s image bearers being mistreated, killed, wounded, and abused. We lament. This month, as we’re reading through God’s...

Tweets of the Month Club | April 2018
April was a busy month—Easter; the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s death; Winter 2.0; the birth of the royal baby. Here are the best tweets about those things and others. https://twitter.com/FakeJDGreear/status/980402729762873344...
