A friend reminded me this weekend that it’s been 10 years now since Christian Imperialism came out in August 2015. It’s been quite the decade! Happy birthday, book.

A bit of light in these dark days. This is my church and I can't even tell you how beautiful that day was when we reaffirmed Zach's baptism with his chosen name. I hope these lines from Zach's mom find the people who need to hear them.

Current grading view. With gift-knitting drying in front of me and cats curled up beside me (and more gift-knitting on my lap), this is as cozy as the exam week gets. 16 essays to go… so close!

The perfect end to a very long week was the ribbon-cutting for MSU’s gorgeous newly renovated special collections space. There were actual giant scissors! So excited to get back in here with our students.
