This month’s regular roundup of highlights, all in one place.
"The Light We Give" Celebrates Its One Year Birthday!
Thank you to everyone who helped celebrate the publication birthday of "The Light We Give" last month, and special thank you to everyone who shared how you're spreading light in the world.
I'm truly grateful to everyone who has supported "The Light We Give" throughout the year, whether it was through purchasing it, requesting it from your local library, recommending it to friends, listening to the audiobook, or rating it on Amazon and GoodReads. Thank you for accompanying me on this journey. I'm so grateful for every step we have taken together.
I Celebrated My Birthday, Too!
Thank you to everyone, not just for "The Light We Give" birthday wishes, but for my own birthday wishes. I spent a lot of time reflecting on how precious life is, and about the blessings I did nothing to deserve. May I never forget.

It's not uncommon for religious people to see themselves as better than others, as being specially chosen, or as having exclusive access to truth. These views can lead to one of the world's most toxic and harmful ideas - religious supremacy.
We can begin changing these views by acknowledging them, understanding them, and talking about them.
Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts and ideas, and for sharing them with others. Your engagement, comments, and feedback mean the world to me.
