when people ask the question "if you could have lunch with anyone you've never met, who would it be?" for me, that's an easy answer. no inner debate.
yep...i often joke, but secretly hope one day there will be some miraculous, chance meet-up with
Ann Voskamp herself...
nothing drawn out or fancy, lunch will do.
chances are slim...slim to none actually (but hey, a girl can dream)~ after all she's a best-selling author several times over, she's a busy wife, mother to seven, and speaker. still, i love her honest and transparent heart, and her words have helped to redirect my heart and reset my perspective more times than i can count. she is the real deal, and i will forever appreciate how her life experiences have been pivotal in connecting me with mine, and drawing me closer to God's heart. she is counter cultural, to be sure. she isn't selling the latest "self-care" methods that are so wildly popular with influencers and authors alike. no, her focus is certainly more on "soul care" and for me it's been a healthy practice to read and re-read her books, and check in online with her often to remember what i know to be God's solid truth in the core of my being.
so maybe one day i can pick up the lunch bill? ;)
also, check out her books if you haven't yet done so! here are a few. soooo good...
