Where's the Good Stuff this week?
Friday 9/26/25 roundup of what I've discovered on Substack
‘Good Stuff’ = blog posts I’ve read this week that inspired, educated, entertained, or moved me.
I subscribe to almost 250 newsletters on Substack!!
I’m not saying I read that many, but if your writing shows up in my inbox, it gets at least a scan from me.
And I can’t help sharing the best of what I’m reading with you, too.
Here’s this week’s roundup:
God stuff
‘Overcoming Evil with Good’ by
. We are called to be God’s agents of peace in the world.‘When You Can’t Afford Your Secrets Anymore’, by
. ‘There is a fine line between humbled and humiliated. But wow…you know when you’ve crossed it.’
Church stuff
‘Weight of Small Things’, by
. ‘maybe, just maybe, the world is held together not only by leaders and systems, but by thousands of unnoticed acts of care, by fragile gestures of kindness, by the sacrament of the ordinary.’‘Finding Joy in a Sad World’ by
. The theology of paying attention.
Other stuff
‘run clubs made me love running’ by
. Because I love my running ‘family’. And like Rauf, my life has become many, many times better because of them.‘In which I share a few thoughts on “Awake: A Memoir” by Jen Hatmaker’ by
. Kate Bowler’s essay is also about Jen Hatmaker’s book (and I will definitely be reading it). But I included this, too, because it is just such a beautiful testament to friendship.
I didn’t write anything this week!
Well, that’s not true. I wrote a bunch of stuff, re-organizing both
and , so they’re a little more coherent and a little more geared up for Good News.Back to blog writing next week!
And finally…
