I thought we could all take a minute to absorb some cuteness. Take a break. Here you go. Hang in there, friends.

Everyone Is Responsible for Afghanistan
So I’ve read quite a bit of commentary on this one. Everyone is pointing a finger in one direction or another. Who is responsible? Is President Biden responsible for the messy exit? Or is the Afghan government responsible? Biden trusted Afghan’s leaders when they asked him not to begin an evacuation prior to the US …
What My Experience was Actually Like Using Gender-Neutral Bathrooms… in 2005
SO I went to two colleges. The first one, Oberlin College, is considered one of the most liberal colleges in the United States. I absolutely loved it! In fact, though I later switched to a private Christian college, Pepperdine, I found the Christian community at the more-secular school to be much more vibrant and authentic …
How to Help People in Afghanistan
The recent events in Afghanistan have been heartbreaking, to say the least. With the Taliban takeover, basic human rights and assurance of safety is at risk. People are currently dying in stampedes as they attempt to reach the airport to escape. I’ve been on the lookout this week for ways to help, and thought I’d …
Why it is Insanely Stupid for Christians to Not Get Vaccinated Against COVID19
Hi. I hope you’re doing ok. As you know, I’ve been going back and forth about the purpose of this blog, blah blah blah. Essentially, the crux of it is this: I’m deciding how authentic to be. So I’m going to go ahead and go with being authentic. I am a female, I am feminine, …

I want to share a challenge to that view. No political party is perfect, because we, as humans, …
A Response to Nicholas Kristof’s “Progressive Christians Arise! Hallelujah!”
Yesterday, one of my all-time favorite journalists, Nicholas Kristof, wrote “Progressive Christians Arise! Hallelujah!,”an opinion column in the New York Times that I found super inspirational. I’m sure it’s being discussed in many Christian circles, and I wanted to chime in on that conversation. He mentions that many of our elected democratic leaders are either …
Don’t Disappear to “Keep the Peace”
A couple years ago, on Donald Trump’s first official day as elected President of the United States, I participated in the Womens’ March in our town. It was comparatively small (maybe 300 people), and it wasn’t an “official” march, but it was affiliated. It was very exciting to me to be able to actually do …
Dear Compassionate Christian, You Are Not Alone
Hi. I want you to know that if you are a Christian who is distraught over the way other Christians, as a group, are responding to current events, you are not alone. If you believe that love is the way forward, not hate, you’re in good company. If you believe in the separation between church …
