There’s nothing more rewarding than meeting readers face-to-face, which is why even this introverted homebody looks forward to travel season. I’ve recently updated my fall speaking schedule, which I’ve kept intentionally light with the baby on the way. Next week brings me to Irvine and Glendale, California. 

On Friday, September 11 and Saturday, September 12, I’ll be at Irvine United Congregational Church for their annual Faith & Works Conference, where I’ll be joining several other speakers in discussing the intersection of faith and everyday life and the future of the Church in a changing context. You can register for that event here. 

On the evening of Saturday, September 12 (7 p.m.), I’ll be at Central Avenue Church in Glendale. This event looks to be a very good time as there will be beer and food and plenty of extra hangout time. Plus, it’s free! Learn more about that event here or RSVP on the Facebook page.
