Last week of our summer read-along! Craziness! Thanks so much for joining us, friends. I know it wasn’t an easy thing to stick with, but whether you were in and out or super-engaged or randomly stalking or what-the-heck-ever, THANK YOU. You’ve inspired me and made me think and helped me grow. I loved this last section. Lots to comment on. First, this comment from Rachel’s co-worker, Sam: “Now, I’ve got no problem with Jesus. But …
