Book Review: Love in Three Quarter Time

Picked up some @riflepaperco stamps this morning to catch up on some correspondence this week. . Letter writing has become a weekly practice to focus on a friend and what may bring them joy in the midst of a heavy season. I’ve loved taking a moment to make something lovely for someone in need of a little beauty. . DM me your mailing address if you’d like some handwritten snail mail. . . . #letterwriting #post #postagestamps #youvegotmail #snailmail #letterwritersofinstagram #handwriting #notesandletters #vintageliving #liturgicalliving #handwritten #riflepaperco #annabond #mydesk #flatlay #stationary

I’ve had multiple conversations this week about friendship—the importance of it, everyone’s felt-lack of it, what relational intimacy is and how we seek it. . I can often feel like I am too much for those I relate with and I know many who believe they are not enough, but we cannot let this keep us from pursuing and caring for one another on a soul-level. . Looking forward to continued conversations and reading toward this end, but I want to hear from you: In what ways has friendship made all the difference for you? How have you pursued healthy, insightful, and fruitful relationships? What holds you back from pursuing such things? (I’m happy with DMs if sharing in the comments isn’t your thing on this topic!) . In other news, the photo is fruit of my compulsion to photograph any granny-chic wallpaper I come across. . . . #sabbathmusings #sabbath #friendship #vintagewallpaper #intentionalcommunity #sundayquestions #soulcare #soulcarerelatuonships #floralwallpaper #grannychic #metallicwallpaper

So nice to settle into my space after a stretch of travel and reno-chaos. . Perfect weekend for some cozy introvert time...mostly spent reading or staring at the new bookshelves 😍 . What are you up to this weekend? . . . #homelibrary #introvertsofinstagram #bookshelves #librariesofinstagram #readinglife #viewfromovermybook #saturdaynightin #bookstagrammer #booklife #readerlife #readerlifestyle #rainbowrowell #bookshelfdecor #yogapantsandbooks #bookstagram #billybookcase #ikealiving

Sometimes this introvert spends all her extrovert points and then some over work-travel and forgets that it is, in fact, a point system. . Taking some time this morning for space to rest, reflect, and recoup. Are you shocked that involves tea and books? . What are you doing to be filled this morning? . Book: All That’s Good by @hannah_._anderson Tea: Christmas Tea from @adagioteas . . . #introverttime #teaandbooks #teastagram #bookstagram #amreading #beholdoverbehave #morningreading #womenwhoread #bookworm #booknerd #readersofinstagram #teaofinstagram #flatlay #allthatsgood #hannahanderson #wednesdayreads #currentread #bookclubpick

It’s #loveyourbookstore week and I was challenged by @susie_finkbeiner to take a photo in my favorite books store with a book I love, so I headed to @baker_book_house to celebrate the release day of #AWarOfLoves. @dacbennett’s memoir resonated with me deeply as his story calls us to seek the transcendent love of God over sexual desire. This man of God has a heart for the kingdom and I’m honored to have the privilege to work alongside him. . As far as Baker, I’m so thankful they let me work in their space, experiment with tea latte concoctions, and enjoy so many of the titles their shelves represent. . To continue the #loveyourbookstorechallenge, I’m looking at you @jennifercgrant @annebogel @katemotaung @seebethanywrite @lindsay.gustafson and @ameliamrhodes . . . #bookrelease #newrelease #thisismybookstore #indiebound #shoplocal #bakerbookhouse #bookstoresofinstagram #amreadingmemoir #amreading #bookstagram #readinglife #bookshop #bookworm #readergram #grandrapids #homeawayfromhome

It’s been a week. I’ve been reminded so much these past days of how finite I am. It used to bother me, but over time, it has become an invitation. . Thinking about thin places and the importance of them in a world groaning. . Grateful for friends who will mail photos of some of my favorite sacred spaces in the world just to bring encouragement. This is one of the windows of St. Barbara’s church in Kutná Hora. . I’m looking forward to taking it slow this weekend. What are you up to? . . . #firstsnow #thinplaces #sacredspaces #beholdoverbehave #introverting #photography #snailmail #stainedglasswindow #stainedglassart #kutnahora #kutnahoracathedral #czechrepublic #czechia #travel #explore #letterwriting #snailmail #traveltrowback #travelmemories #athomeintheworld

Living my best book life at @parnassusbooks! Love this charming indie and was so excited to finally get to browse here. .

So pleased to wander Chicago yesterday and Nashville tomorrow. . Today was a day to recoup and give thanks for the wonderful community I’ve been surrounded with and challenged by as well as for views like this. . Here’s to the week ahead! What are you giving thanks for this Sunday evening? . . . #signatureroom #signatureviews #chicagoskyline #chicago #thattoddlintown #cityscape #cityviews #autumnskys #travel #adventure #wanderlust #wildblueyonder #asfarastheeyecansee #adventureisoutthere #womenwhotravel #marketinglife #travelinglife #travelerslife #chicagoland #johnhancocktower #johnhancockview #chicagoviews

Loved getting to spend time with this brother in person. @dacbennett’s heart for the Lord is compelling and his book is one of the most powerful I’ve read in a while. It’s also the #1 release in Christian Apologetics on Amazon and it is still two weeks out from release. Be sure to check out #AWarOfLoves! . So glad to have a few hours to talk politics, sexuality, and faith—ya know, the easy stuff. So thankful for this man and new friend and the work God has for him to do. . . . #chicago #lincolnpark #authorfriends #friendswhotravel #chicagogram #awol #authorlife #newbookalert #newrelease #newbookstagram #writerlife #booktour #womenwhotravel #athomeintheworld #evangelist #midwesttourist #writerstowatch #theologian
