Weekend Carnivals

First Saturdays are for Elizabeth Esther‘s “Saturday Evening Blog Post” get-together. This month we got to choose the best of the last two months, since she was absent at the beginning of August. I had a hard time this month, but in the end I chose:

July: Sexuality for a New World

August: Faith and Emotional Manipulation

(I really wanted to get my series on anxiety in there, but I finally just decided these other two posts were more universally important! Like how I cheated and put it in anyway?)

And of course, weekends are for linking up at RAnn’s “Sunday Snippets” meme at This, That & The Other Thing (where she does no-holds barred book reviews of books both Christian and mainstream).  My contributions for this week are:

Small-Town Sunday, which I’m also sharing over at Write On Edge‘s weekend linkup

Out of Trauma, Bliss (a motherhood moment with my chromosomally-gifted half-angel, half-wildebeest)

Say It Or Live It (how do you live your faith?)

and Being Pregnant With Grace, for the Couple to Couple League’s blog.

There’s always lots of good writing to be found in these carnivals…check it out!
