    Twitter Chai.

    Last week, my friend Lauren left the Mocha Club to run some errands. When she mentioned a swing by The Perch, I got real happy. Cause it was raining. And…

    When Twitter changed my complexion.

    Sophie and Melanie talked me into signing up for twitter last June. I didn’t love it; in fact, it kinda annoyed me.  But I’m of the persuasion that if Sophie…

    • It’s DAY 50 of #100DaysToBrave2019! We are half way, friends!!
.....
Remember our goal from January 1- we want to finish together on April 10th. So no matter where you are in the book, jump to Day 50 today and let’s finish the back half together!
.....
Let me tell you some things:
• you have NOT “failed” if you aren’t on Day 50
• you will NOT miss what God has for you by catching up to Day 50 today
• you WILL be different by April 10th if you finish #100DaysToBrave2019.
.....
Let me ask you to do some things:
• will you post about Day 50 and encourage your friends to finish with us? Lots of y’all have invited your friends along, whether you are caught up or not, will you tell your people to meet us at Day 50?
• if you have finished all 100 days before, will you comment below about why people should finish with us? You can post about it too if you want? I just want all our friends to finish together- help me?
• have a great Tuesday!
(Just felt like that was something else I wanted to ask you to do while I was making a list. You get it. 🤗)

    • If you’ve never listened to a podcast episode, this will be a great first one. I 100% stole this picture from @mackbrock’s Instagram because I just need you to see the faces of the dearest people you will hear on #thatsoundsfunpodcast today.
.....
Mack and @meredithbrock are those people that you are sure are immediately important in your life when you meet them. Do you know what I mean? And then this conversation was so inspiring- have you ever heard two people casually mention fasting and praying that much?- that I’m just gonna do whatever it takes to stay friends with the Brocks for a long long time.
.....
We saved this #TSFCouples2019 episode for today, a national holiday, in hopes you would really sit with it, soak it up, spend time in their conversation. Whether it’s driving back home from a ski trip, cooking something warm in the kitchen, working out in the middle of the day because you can, or just sitting on your couch, I think men and women alike will find this episode special.
.....
Thanks Mack and Meredith. I’m learning so much from you. ♥️ (Also y’all are V FUNNY and that’s always a lifetime friendship trait I’m looking for.)

    • I got to be a part of celebrating this man’s birthday tonight. And I will tell you exactly what I told our friends... I moved to Nashville eleven years ago and Matt was one of the first friends I knew I loved. And when you love someone in a city, it makes that city feel like home. Matt made this town home for me.
.....
Matt Wertz, you are easy to love and easy to celebrate, my friend. Here’s to many more. ♥️

    • I call this Three Men and a Preaching Lady.
.....
I’ve never taught the story of the two lost sons from Luke 15. It’s always been a touch too personal for me. But it was right for today. I’m thankful for the years and tears God and I have shared that made today not just possible, but also a healing gift from Him to me.

    • In January 2017, Homer from Alamo at the Sacramento airport helped us when the check engine light came on, upgraded us to a swaaaaaank car, and made a broken car legitimately no big deal.
.....
I smiled so big yesterday when Homer handed me the keys to a RAV4. I told him how I remembered him, how grateful I still am two years later, how we talk about him in the office from time to time, and told him thanks again.
.....
These are the parts of the job you don’t know until you do it. The familiarity with really kind rental car employees. Seeing the same Delta flight attendants. Knowing where the best restaurants are in each airport and knowing which Delta SkyClubs have the best soup.
.....
Most of you know I’m taking Fall 2019 off the road, and while I’ll still be writing and podcasting and etc, it’s these random interactions across the country that I think I’m most sentimental about missing. It feels a little like God set me up yesterday for a full circle moment- to see and thank Homer for kindness he showed two years ago.
.....
I know it’s only six months off the road, but when something has been your full time job for almost eight years, there are these random moments of sadness mixed with gratefulness and they keep popping up this spring- bringing back to mind all these spots around the country where God surprised us. I know I’m #AlwaysAnnie and prone to being sentimental, but our God is a God of ebenezer stones, moments and places where we can remember Him. And that happened for me yesterday at the @alamorentacar desk. Thanks again, Homer.
