“She's the first person to smile at me today.
The first to make me feel wanted.
Understood.

― Lisa Fipps, Starfish

“Beginning to live as though there's no such thing as other people's children might be our most critical, significant contribution to the flourishing of our own world.”

“Christian friendships are call-and-response friendships. We tell each other over and over, back and forth, the truth of who we are and who God is. Over dinner and on walks, dropping off soup when someone is sick, and in prayer over the phone, we speak the good news to each other. And we become good news to every other.”
― Tish Harrison Warren, Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life
