I’ve been doing a Bible in a year reading plan…er, podcast, because I don’t have a lot of time to sit and read these days. If yall have ever read through the Bible, you know how wildly exciting the first couple of books are. By that I mean long lists of people’s families and weird… Continue reading Intentional Faith
I answered the phone to Grey gleefully shouting that the first calf of the season had been born! Harlow and I rushed to the window to see a brand-new baby with its glowing white face shining through the field. Our youngest spunky Hereford had just given birth to her first calf and was standing beside… Continue reading Faithful
As I stood in church this morning singing about the goodness of God, the lyrics depicted a shepherd God chasing after us. I thought of something Lisa Harper says a lot in her teaching, that she’s always trying to run hard after Jesus. All of this movement. It makes me tired. If energy were a… Continue reading Trippin’
I exhaled slowly, considering my response. I’ve been asked this question approximately 23 days in a row. “But where are the lights?” As I shuttle Harlow to school each day, we pass by the park. During the Christmas season, its halls, errr, pine trees, were decked with lights as far as the eye could see.… Continue reading Thrill of Hope
On what must have been the windiest day of the year, we loaded up our jeep with fishing poles, snacks, and chairs. We made our way down to the pond, fishing line whipping in the whirls, tangling into itself. As we shooed the cows enough to make room for our set up, we were met… Continue reading Hooked

I’ve been hanging around with a lot of desperate people lately. I don’t mean desperate as in your mama telling you not to act like you’re desperate. I mean people who are desperate for resolution, for relationship, revelation, belonging, purpose, and fulfillment. This desperation takes on different shapes pending how desperately the owner is attempting… Continue reading You’re Somebody
“I realized I’m not a lake, I’m a river.” I heard this on a podcast recently. I backed it up and replayed it. I was intrigued by this idea and have been thinking about it ever since. Each summer, my family travels to north Georgia to spend the week together in a house overlooking Lake… Continue reading You are a river
Happy birthday Grey and Harlow! We now have a 5-year-old and a 3-year-old in our house…not to mention a few too many new toys. We had the best time celebrating with friends and family from near and far this past weekend. Here at Salty but Sweet, we want to continue the celebration by launching the… Continue reading Surprise!
We just finished celebrating homecoming week! The ideas and traditions around homecoming have changed over the years and vary from place to place. For me, it invokes memories at my high school alma mater. As a cheerleader, I would spend weeks hand painting spirit signs to hang up at the football game and around our… Continue reading Mama said that it was okay
