@erichoke I’ve gone back to David Brooks’s book, The Second Mountain, several times. It’s well written and has been a resource for my restlessness as I approach the season you’re referring to.
Today is our little monster’s birthday. His name is what he’s been to us. A hedge of joy and love that we didn’t know we wanted or would need. We love him and are so thankful our Hayes was been 3 years ago today! https://t.co/5kgGyyYMwt
Happy first day of Women’s History Month! Our house is full of women who lead, love, are strong, bold, have their own voice and will continue to be an inspiration.

That’s unconscionable.
We don't have to fight the culture. Jesus has already won. Therefore, we can live with humility, gentleness, and patience. Put down your boxing gloves and pick your cross.
Police murdering Black people, and mass shootings on a weekly basis... America is intent of returning back to normal, but normal is not what we need.

I have an ambitious proposal for preachers as Black history month approaches.
Ok here it is. Ready?
Quote Black women and men in your sermons the other 11 months of the year.
Finally, I’m putting one of my birthday gifts to work. @cocodixon6 knows I have a small passion for sneakers so she got me this kit and a history of sneakers book. #lilsneakerhead#lovedbywife https://t.co/e2uV3SrPun
Martin Luther King and Anne Frank would be the same age as Barbara Walters if they were alive today.
We tend to think they lived in very different times, but they were all born in 1929.

“Some men aren’t looking for anything logical like money. They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men, just want to watch the world burn.”
Sheesh!!
