so…… yeah

Well, hello there again.

No, it’s not you – this blog has been on pause for {checks notes} well over a year! That’s – by a long shot – the longest break since we started back when our family first moved to France in 2010.

our 3 “big kids” shortly after we moved

Just writing that down is shocking to me:

  • That I haven’t written here for a year
  • That our family moved away from Canada for the first time over a dozen years ago
  • How much change has been recorded on this blog during those years

If you didn’t know – one of the main reasons I haven’t been writing here is that I’ve been putting out a weekly newsletter on contentment, and that has taken a lot of my writing time. It’s a short newsletter every Thursday that helps understand, find, and live in deep, true Biblical contentment.

The kind of contentment that doesn’t look at the future with a scared “what if….” but with a confident “even if…”

Or head over to Chartreusian.com where the previous ~200 Living Contentment posts are archived, along with some free ebooks, and other contentment-related material

The other thing that has taken my writing time is my first book has been released:

Utterly Transformed: The Improbable Life of Peter is now available in paperback and Kindle (audiobook coming early 2024)

But anyway – just to say – welcome back. I’m going to be writing here again. I won’t overwhelm either of us with trying to catch up on all that’s happened since the last post – but I’ll hit some of the highlights. And hopefully, Matea will stop bugging me to post about her birthday…
