My favorite Irish activity was driving around the Ring of Kerry, especially the stops at the Kerry Cliffs and Muckross Abbey. (Bonus points if you sing a Gregorian chant in the echoiest part of the Abbey ruins.)

I love being part of a local church community where we laugh a lot, remember the needs of our present-day refugee siblings far and near, and celebrate the world-transforming birth of a humble refugee King. Merry Christmas Eve to all!

“Women can’t be pastors” is the one phrase that reliably transforms me into an Enneagram 8.

I’m thoroughly biased, but my InterVarsity Press book No Longer Strangers is on Audible, and I got to narrate the audiobook myself! It’s about finding belonging in the company of Jesus and his people, even when our lives are full of reasons to feel out of place.

If I do that next time, I’ll think of you.

I have no meaningful suggestions—I was mediocre at Twitter, and I expect to be similarly mediocre at Bluesky—but I'm glad you're here!

A Circle of Quiet is so exquisite!

I've been doing the same thing!
