Hope Heals by Katherine and Jay Wolf
Happy Sunday, and happy first weekend of football season! I’m using this long weekend to get caught up on graduate work and blog posts–it’s been far too long since I’ve shared a book review with you. I like to read lots of different genres, and I know that not everyone likes the different types of […]
14 People to Know
We’re one week in to the school year, and my last semester of graduate school starts this week (can you hear the Hallelujah Chorus in the distance?). So before things get too crazy, I wanted to pause and share my review of 7 Men by Eric Metaxas. This is a book I read several years ago after […]
Goliath Must Fall by Louie Giglio
If you’re like me and you grew up going to church, it’s very likely that you’re familiar with the story of David and Goliath. And even if you didn’t grow up in church, it’s one of those Bible stories we all seem to know. Well, in his book Goliath Must Fall, Louie Giglio takes this […]
On My Desk: Books I Can’t Write Without
Between June and December of this year I’ll be working on my longest, most ambitious writing adventure to date: finishing my capstone project for my master’s degree. With that in mind, I thought I’d share a peek behind the scenes at the books I can’t write without. These are books that live on my desk so I can […]
Midweek Miscellanea
It’s hard to believe that in just a few short weeks, Summer will be here! The last few months of school are always ridiculously busy, so I’ve been feeling like the blog has been a little neglected. So in the spirit of spicing things up, here’s a random collection of things that I’m reading/loving. Currently Reading: […]
The Book I Can’t Write About
Over the last few weeks, I’ve tried several times to write a post about Silence by Shusaku Endo, but I haven’t been able to organize my thoughts into any coherent structure. I don’t think any short blog post can do this novel justice, but here we go. If you’ve never heard of this novel before, it was […]
A Tribute to Flannery O’Connor
On this day in 1925, Flannery O’Connor was born in Savannah, Georgia. Today, in honor of her life, I’ve decided to try and put down on paper why she has recently become one of the authors I admire most. It’s actually been fairly difficult to pin down why exactly I love her writing so much. […]
#Book50ReadAlong: Week Four
Merry Christmas! I’m so thankful for all of you who have followed along with this Advent read along this season. I don’t have a lot to share with you tonight, as I’m sure you’ve heard Christmas message after Christmas message this weekend. I thought I’d share my favorite passages from this week’s reading and call […]
#Book50ReadAlong: Week Three
Sorry that this post is coming to you a day late! It’s been a busy week/weekend around here, and I’m sure you’re feeling the Christmas rush as well. Tomorrow is my last (!) half day at work before the break, and I’m so excited to spend time with family, read, and relax. So let’s jump […]
Six Albums for your Christmas Playlist
Today is the first Sunday of Advent, which means my favorite time of year is upon us. Today I’ve got six unique Christmas Albums to share with you. These are just a few of the albums I’ve listened to in recent years (my Christmas music playlist on iTunes is about 20 hours long), with two brand new […]
