chew*



As 2010 begins, I’ve got two new projects up my sleeve, and today, I’m happy to reveal one of them (to the six or so of you who faithfully read).

In an effort to maintain friendships with three girls who inspire me and to encourage open and honest dialogue, I’ve started another blog. (Don’t judge.)

chew* was born out of some serious thinking about my little life and what could make it even better. Over the months I’ve realized that perhaps the thing I miss most about college is the free and open exchange of ideas, the ability to talk about life’s deeper questions and to reflect on our callings as God’s beloved. Then I realized (after being inspired here and here) that discourse was possible, despite time and distance.

So I started chew*.

Three of my friends have graciously agreed to join me in this little venture. Each month, we’ll be discussing a new topic—ranging from the spiritual to the creative—via video chat. We’ll post our videos for you to see in an effort to continue the dialogue even further. (In other words, your comments are welcome and encouraged!)

I hope you’ll join us over at chew*. This month, we’re discussing living simply and intentionally and how it relates to our spiritual walk. You can get a preview of our talk here. Then, check back again January 22 for the full video.

This project excites me to no end. I can’t wait to see where it takes us. If you’re interested in contributing to the discussion or joining the journey, let me know. We’d love to have you on board.

How exciting!! I can't wait to add this to my daily blog reading routine. I hope you'll add my new blog to yours. I apologize for my disappearing act as of late. I've been reading your blog, just not making my presence known. I just wanted to say I'm sorry and I'm back!
