Have you ever been mad at your church? Maybe someone hurt you. Maybe it was what someone said or did or maybe didn’t say or do. Maybe it was the way a situation was handled.

There are lots of ways a church can hurt you.

One of my weaknesses is I don’t take the time to celebrate milestones like I should. I’m wired up to see the next hill or the next problem to solve. I feel a sense of urgency to keep plowing ahead, instead of pausing to celebrate.

In fact, it’s harder than you might think for me to make this post because I have several others lined up I’d rather share. But I’m trying to grow in the art of celebration.

Keeping with the theme of celebrating…I’m celebrating one year of blogging this week!!! Woo-hoo!

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since I typed out my first post! The year went by faster than I imagined. I’m so grateful for the new friends I’ve made on this journey from all over the world.
