I totally just read a business book for the first time in years. Yes, the irony of this fact is not lost on me. I used to eat up business and self-help books back when I was in college and while I had a steady job during my twenties....
I'm on a quest. A quest to perfecting the art of Hosting Movie Nights. I am still early on my journey, but here's a few things I've learned so far.
Ok, now I officially feel for all of the dear friends I ask to boil their entire lives down into ten things they have learned. I just returned my trip with Unbound to El Salvador, and I could barely narrow a week down to ten! Ha, seriously though, I have so many things that...
As this post is being published today, I’m flying down to El Salvador with Unbound. And much of that is because of this lovely friend right here. Everyone, meet Sara. I met Sara years ago at my church through a sushi cooking class that I happened to be teaching....

A little “snapshot” of my month in photos.
I met today’s guest-poster back when we were roommates at Southwestern College, a tiny liberal arts school in southeastern (yes, the irony) Kansas. We were perhaps unlikely friends, as we had hardly anything in common when dorm life first brought us together. I was the introvert, Mollie was the...
I'm always trying to connect the films I see with my everyday life. Movies inspire me, challenge my assumptions, change my views, break my heart, lift my soul, and, yes, even teach me Life Lessons. Here are ten.
