Stay Classy, Fall.
We expect it all to be served to us at once – at dinner or in life. Sometimes we have to wait. Sometimes things take time, and are better with time.

Passionate about Jesus and people and bringing those two together.
Living in and learning to love Texas.
In love with my cute lil family.
Working with college students, who are the coolest.
Seeking Jesus and JOY in everything.
a time for everything
While fall has ushered itself in, I feel the same in my own life. I feel like I have walked into a season of loss. A time of uprooting and saying goodbye to a lot. I’m feeling a loss of myself – who am I if I am not who I thought I was? If I’m not good at what I thought I was good at, what good am I?

I am reading the newest Brené Brown book, Rising Strong. So prepare yourself for all kinds of life-changing quotes about worthiness and hustling and vulnerability and all those great words.

I found myself preparing for it by googling: “managing expectations,” and thought to myself, I should not be allowed to teach on this! Hopefully it is fun; I included funny pictures and video clips and am […]

Because I just feel like God has put this call on my life to tell you, all of you, that following Him is worth it. That maybe He isn’t out to ruin your party life; I actually believe that the life He intends for each of us is the BEST possible option.

Here I am, arriving at another birthday. Twenty-five turned out to be the best year yet, and I am sad to say goodbye to it. But in the spirit of optimism, I’m out to make 26 even better.

Today is the Eve of my 26th birthday. I have a lot of words when I reflect back on this past year. Twenty-five turned out to be potentially the best year yet, and I am sad to say goodbye to it. But in the spirit of optimism, I’m out to make 26 even better. Tomorrow […]
