This, like so much of the poetry I’ve written over the past few months, was mostly instigated by COVID-19. How it overturned all our plans and separated us from people we love. But really it’s more concerned with fear–the way it’s so easy to be afraid of the very goodness …
Well, we’re back. The inspiration for this piece was a poem by Sam K., a classmate from a collaborative project we did with Georgetown University this past semester. I wrote most of it on a plane ride from Florida back to Virginia for my summer job on campus, trying to …
So my book came out officially on August 6. That’s a thing. Seriously guys. This is amazing, and it hasn’t even really sunk in yet. My dream from years ago was to be a published author. And it happened. God made it happen, even though it wasn’t at all like …
Transformed by Truth releases in under a month! August 6, to be exact (preorder on Amazon here). And the wonderful people at Crossway have put together some lovely social media graphics to go along with the release. You’re welcome to download these and post them on your own social media …

I wrote this during NaPoWriMo this past spring. It’s probably one of my favorites. =) Where have you come from, child of stars? What power glows in that beating heart? What far-off sun do you call home? What songs are coursing in your bones? Why do you wander here, lost …
Well, I’m back. Hello again! I know I haven’t blogged very much this summer, so I’m just going to do a wrap-up post for the entire summer and hopefully that will also serve as explanation for why I’ve been rather absent. Things That Happened I wrote a book | …
