A friend on another site brought this to my attention: Everyone who is 45 or will be turning 45, this is our year! 2025 is 45 squared! It feels like I am in an elite portion of humanity 🙂. (The next one is 2116, when I will no longer be with us!)

#4 & #5 are sharing a day because they are both pre-orders, so gifts for someone who wants to be surprised one day in early Spring :-): Book 5: Looking forward to @skyejethani.bsky.social's What if Jesus Was Serious About Justice, about how evangelism and social reform go together.

For all those looking for last-minute gifts, here are 5 books (one a day!) I'm enjoying or looking forward to reading in the near future: Day 3: Enjoying Recovery From Purity Culture by Camden Morgante, broadly evangelical psychologist, for both those who stayed in that church and those who didn't.

I love that we have a holiday dedicated to looking back over the past year and giving thanks and that in the US it’s right before the Christian liturgical season of Advent, dedicated to looking forward with hope.
