I just had the privilege of spending a few days at I just had the privilege of spending a few days at Texas A&M for my son’s track & field camp—and it’s hard to put into words what an unforgettable experience it was. At the heart of it all was Coach Pat Henry, the legendary head coach of A&M’s track program.

What made it even more special is the personal connection our family has shared with the Henry family for over 30 years. 

Pat is the older brother of my high school track coach, and his nephew, Kurt—now an assistant coach at A&M—was someone I knew back in those high school days too. Seeing Kurt on the track, coaching with the same heart and integrity as his dad, brought tears to my eyes.

Coach Henry has built more than just a record-breaking team—he’s built a legacy of excellence, character, and care. His athletes give their best because they know they are loved and believed in.

And in true Henry fashion, Coach Pat not only welcomed us with open arms, but took the time to give us a personal tour of the facilities, sit with us in his office for over an hour, and even invited us back for a football game & meet next year. 

What a gift to witness the legacy he has created that has shaped so many lives—including mine—and now is inspiring my son.

Grateful beyond words for the past few days, and so honored to have seen up close what makes Coach Henry—and this program—so extraordinary.

It’s strange, isn’t it?⁠ How the places and It’s strange, isn’t it?⁠

How the places and circumstances we once tried to escape⁠ become the very places God uses to heal us…and then others too. 
⁠
We spend a lifetime chasing wholeness,⁠ pursuing what we think we want, desiring comfort not pain, wanting the mountain top not the valley…running from the mess, the broken, trying to avoid the cracks in our stories. 

But God moves toward them, in them, through them. He meets us in that middle, in the hard, in the darkness.

To make beauty where there was once only brokenness.⁠ To bring light into the shadows. 
⁠
Because pain—real pain—⁠
has a way of softening the calloused parts of us.⁠

It humbles. It awakens. It makes us wildly and keenly alert. 
⁠
And if we let Him,⁠ God takes what once felt like weakness⁠, what we perceived as undone and incomplete…the very thing we wished would have never happened…and turns it into a vessel for His strength.⁠
(2 Corinthians 12:9)⁠
⁠
The jagged places?⁠
The scars that still ache some days?⁠
They become sacred—-vivid and marked memories we wouldn’t wish on our worst enemy, but now wouldn’t trade for all the riches in the world.⁠

Not because the suffering was good,⁠ or fun, or desired…but because God wastes nothing.⁠ Absolutely nothing. 
⁠
So don’t despise the limp.⁠
Don’t cover the scar.⁠

In the hands of a loving God,⁠
even the most shattered stories⁠
can become not only our deepest connection with the Father, but also lifelines of hope for someone else.
Curated friendships don’t hold up in a storm. An Curated friendships don’t hold up in a storm.
And true friendship doesn’t come with a spotlight.

No one claps for the late-night phone call, the repetitive pleadings in prayer in the middle of someone else’s mess, or the way you show up again and again when it would be easier to disappear.

But that? That’s the stuff of real life. That’s the Gospel in motion.

We’re not collecting people like followers.
We’re committing to them like family.
We’re not building networks.
We’re building altars.

And in a world hungry for connection but allergic to cost, we’ve sometimes dressed convenience in the language of love and called it friendship.

We’ve traded covenant for comfort.
Depth for dopamine.
Presence for proximity.

But there is a revival of friendship coming.
And it won’t be led by the popular. 
It won’t be led by those who are more eager to serve themselves than others. 
It will be led by the faithful.

The ones who stayed when it got awkward.
The ones who fought hard for reconciliation.
The ones who didn’t just bring meals, but bore burdens.
The ones who didn’t need a platform to love well—they just needed a porch, or a bathroom floor, or a driveway…or wherever else real conversations happen.

Because the mattering things?
They happen around kitchen tables.
In hospital rooms.
In text threads filled with prayers, vulnerability, and sometimes tears.
They happen when someone looks at your darkest day and says, “I’m not leaving.”

This isn’t flashy.
It’s not a brand.
But it’s real. It’s rooted. It’s eternal.
And if that doesn’t trend, so be it.
I didn’t come to be liked.
I came to love. 
I came to live what’s true.

And what’s true is this:
The kind of friendship that reflects Christ won’t always be easy—but it will always, always ALWAYS be worth it.

Yesterday morning, my son Kai was baptized in the Yesterday morning, my son Kai was baptized in the ocean, surrounded by our closest friends—people who have walked with us, prayed with us, wept with us, celebrated with us and helped shape him into the young man he is.

As he came up out of the water, the waves kept rolling in, crashing behind him—and I couldn’t help but feel the weight of that moment. Life is like that sometimes, isn’t it? The waves just keep coming. Hit after hit. Roll after roll. But standing there, I was reminded: we are anchored. We are held. And we will stand firm…no matter what comes…because our hope is in Jesus.

There is nothing—truly nothing—I want more than for my kids than to know and follow Jesus all the days of their lives. To love Him with their whole hearts.

Kai is such a strong, steady leader, and yet his heart is so soft, so tender. He is a gift to all who know him. As a mama…I don’t deserve him. He’s a treasure I will never get over. His wisdom, his kindness, his integrity, his humor…I am so humbled and honored to call him one of my best and most trusted friends. 

And Jesus—oh, I’m most grateful for Him.
For grace that runs deeper than the waves.
For a Savior who will always meet us in the water.
For a family and friends who cheer wildly for what matters most.
For this moment I’ll carry with me for eternity.
