That’s What SHE Said with Kristin Kobes Du Mez
I'm talking with Jesus and John Wayne author Kristin Kobes Du Mez about the dynamics of religious culture that have led to our current political landscape. Whether you grew up in Christianity or want to understand the Christian underpinnings of the American religious right, this was a fascinating conversation about her book that illuminated so much about the culture I grew up in. It's been a long-standing best-seller this year for good reason, and I hope everyone will read it because it's . . .

THE BLOG HAS BEEN “MADE” | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM JANUARY 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM JANUARY 2011. So . . . I sometimes mention that I work as an adjunct professor? I have always tried to keep my online life separate from that role. I work in the grad psych department, and even though I still have the inevitable embarrassing moments in the class, I at least want to create the illusion that I am a professional. Because of that, I’ve hoped my social media stuff would go unnoticed – and for many years it has. Because . . .
ANGER CONFUSED AS LOVE, AND THE REST OF 2010 | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM JANUARY 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM JANUARY 2011. I continue in my 15 minutes of fame as the woman who loves/hates minivans, depending on where you’re reading. So controversial, I am!! It’s like a telephone game. I made anti-minivan remarks! I’m the woman who fell in love with the minivan! (Um, no.) I’m riding on the coattails of Rage Against the Machine and should be ashamed of myself! I think that my being quoted on any of this conversation is utterly amusing, . . .
Life Lately
India is in tech week for her show and it’s safe to say Spring Awakening has become her new fashion aesthetic. It’s not a costume, it’s a lifestyle. (Come see her show! Tickets here: @braverplayers_theater) Accountability over party. It shouldn’t need to be said. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kristen Howerton (@kristenhowerton) View this post on . . .
Using Give Inkind to organize care for loved ones
Last week, I shared about a loss that had happened in our family. When it happened, I knew I wanted to help. I think that’s an impulse most of us feel when people we love are in pain. We want to do something to be of service. So I immediately offered to help organize a fundraiser for my nephew and his wife, who had experienced a terrible loss, but who were also struggling to pay for the medical bills that preceded losing their son. I quickly started to do some research on the best platform . . .
BIRTHDAY SURPRISES | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM JANUARY 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM JANUARY 2011. Today was my birthday. I spent the entire day thinking that I was turning 37 today. I gave quite a bit of thought about the fact that I am no longer mid-thirties. I thought about how old 37 seemed, and how brief life was, and the ways I wanted to be different as I enter my LATE THIRTIES (dun dun DUNNNNN). This age just really felt like a milestone. Around 11pm tonight, a friend pointed out that I am 36 today, not 37. If . . .

ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM DECEMBER 2O10. Daycare ropes for civilian use. Jafta’s kindergarten has an unfortunate system where I have to park and then walk all the kids into the middle of campus to get him. I’m not sure I can adequately explain how chaotic it is to walk my three younger kids through a small campus with 200 kindergartners running around. All three of them run in different directions, Kembe trying to escape to the basketball hoop, India blindly . . .
