Lover of porch swings, live music, genuine community, red Sour Patch Kids, Jesus, traveling & dogs. Oh, and I've quit Diet Coke more times than I care to admit.

After publishing (I think!) my last story for the year, I want to say this has been one of my favorite years of my career.
I started it fired from my job, covered the Legislature then landed in a supportive & aggressive newsroom. I've learned a lot this year. Thanks for reading.

@court2the_enay @busytoddler123 has all the best ideas. If you’re really adventurous, make cups of water and food coloring to paint the snow in the bin. 🎨

It's taken me forty years to realize this one simple truth: some people just like being a jerk.

@kellimsteele Yessss. At minimum you gotta have options. 📚

Dear Southern Baptists, don’t buy into the narrative that says that care for the abused, the immigrant, and for racial equality is “liberalism” or “leftism.” It’s faithful followers of Jesus trying to take the inerrant Word of God seriously and live it out in real life.

@AngusKara Yes! I figured from the scene in the credits that there is #HopeforHopper but stilll. So many emotions. 😭

No one warned me about that last episode of #StrangersThings3. Y’all are traitors. All of you.

"Silent Saturday" is a powerful reminder that just because God "appears" silent or absent doesn't mean that God isn't at work and in control.

These are such challenging and confusing days.

Take heart. Be faithful. Press on. Remember, God is not yet done.

Just when we think we get what it means to follow Jesus...

He washes the feet of His disciples - including the man He knew would betray Him.

Grace isn't rational. It's nonsensical. May we be both comforted and disrupted by the love and grace of Christ.

I need a @Stephen_Kellogg / @mattnathanson tour. Can we make this happen, please?

[Brittany Brownfield @britbrownfield]

Stephen Kellogg in my home state is one of my favorite sights to see ❤️ #mountainstage #almostheaven

[Stephen Kellogg @Stephen_Kellogg]

Soundcheck ⁦@MountainStage⁩ !!!

[Brittany Brownfield @britbrownfield]

You guys. Through some miracle, there are a few tickets left to tonight’s @MountainStage with @Stephen_Kellogg, @mattnathanson and more. Don’t screw this up. Go. Go. Go. https://t.co/CntD90JP0Y

[Brittany Brownfield @britbrownfield]

She is a treasure. Also, don’t quit before the miracle. K?

I’m getting married tmrw in a redwood grove, at the age of 65, to a tall handsome writer @NealFAllen—good sense of humor, is smarter than I am, can fix anything, and cook. So never ever give up, no matter how things look or how long they take. Don’t quit before the miracle. Deal?

When we give up something as a spiritual practice, replace it with something beautiful and life giving. Removing weeds without planting something only produces more weeds later. #MiniLentenDevotional

For $500,000 my child better be getting into Hogwarts, forget USC. Damn Aunt Becky

A temptation of our culture is the need to debate and comment on every single event. Sometimes, wisdom is evident in silence. Sometimes, silence is necessary for sanity. It’s okay. Let someone else win the internet.
