I thought the best smell was to have orange peel on your hands. Turns out a classic Chick-fil-A on 33rd sandwich is way better.

Sunburns are pretty shameful. You have to walk around showing to the entire world for three days that you’re irresponsible and can’t take two minutes to take care of yourself.

I found myself sending out the prayer “God remind me that you love me.” Whenever I feel insecure or full of shame, this is where I have to start.

This is perfect.

On the first day of the week, Mary came to the tomb early in the morning, *while it was still dark*, & saw the stone removed from the tomb. Resurrection happens “while it is still dark.” Don’t let the darkness overtake you. Christ is risen!

The resurrection is vital for Christians because it is the greatest measure of physical, spiritual, and emotional redemption.

WHY AM I SO EXCITED FOR THIS.

I don’t trust anyone who dresses up on a plane. Who are you trying to impress??

I found a new spiritual practice: watch political ads from other coasts. They are made by people not like me who support things I don’t support. It adds context and understanding for other sides.

When your Sleep Number gets delayed

I don’t think I’ve ever felt more seen by a band name than when I came across the “psychotic monks.”

Youth ministry is an insane life choice. But once the choice is made it feels insane not to choose it.

I love sharing stories with our teens about the importance of singleness in the Church. It’s more encouraging than the sole message of “marriage is great… so wait 15 years for that.”

Super Bowl snacking today is brought to you by Tum’s. It’ll let your body be pushed harder and farther than what’s naturally possible.

Everyone thinks Rihanna might be pregnant, and after seeing her in person I think I might also be pregnant

I Photoshop paddington into a movie, game, TV show, or album until I forget: Day 713

I feel like being in full time ministry makes me 30% counselor, 30% teacher, and 40% trained in random miscellaneous office tasks.

I’ve been making fun of older people at church with CPAP lines on their face. And then I went for a run today with a hat two sizes to small for me. I’m sure the teens won’t say anything about it.

Shimmer lady! I cracked the code for the #TSxCapitalOne #Giveaway! Capital One, I’m ready to see Taylor Swift at #TSTheErasTour!

What an interesting season of life #LastFourWatched
