Are you going to the Festival of Faith and Writing next week in Grand Rapids? Or will you be anywhere within driving distance? Come and hear me, Karen Stiller, Sara Billups, and Amanda Held Opelt talk about writing with hope in a time of tumult on Wednesday, 4/15, at 7:30 pm. (Tumult: as defined by moments like when the president of a global superpower threatens to wipe an entire civilization off the map, never to return.)

Seriously, I am looking forward to learning how to continue practicing hope when the world looks dark, even though darkness is never dark to God.
