Currently Vol: 1

Today I am linking up again with Jenna of Dearest Love and Ann of In Residence for their currently linkup. You can read my post from last time here on my personal blog, then go over to Jenna or Anne's blog and linkup your post!


I usually linkup with my personal blog but I figured I would change it up a bit and also add a bit of variety to the Quiet Place. So here's what I'm currently writing, anticipating, wearing, craving, missing, and encouraged by.

Writing: a ton of notes, cause I am currently in Grad school.

Anticipating: Fall. I love how the leaves change and temperatures get cooler. Although, It's been pretty hot here in Virginia this week, so hopefully the fall weather will come soon!

Wearing: I have been loving my "love Michigan" t-shirt lately, it reminds me of home every time I wear it and I'm loving this fall outfit that I found on pinterest. I am hoping i can recreate it.

Craving: these crispy fried chicken sliders with buffalo sauce, they look so good! I may have to make these soon!
Missing: Summer days with my family. Don't get me wrong, I love it here in VA but there's nothing like a Michigan summer!

Encouraged by: Lately, I have been encouraged by the She Reads Truth Hosea study, I love how each day has spoken to my heart! God is definitely showing me a lot here!

What's on your currently list?
would you like more of these posts on here in the future?

Be sure to go over to Jenna or Anne's blog and link up!

    Oh, more fried chicken! I didn't put that on my "craving" list, but it is up there now that I think about it! :)

    What are you studying in grad school? I know it's tough, but being a student really is so fun! I hope you enjoy your time there this fall.

    Counseling is a great major! I can imagine that it would be a tough one, but I also know that it will have a big pay off when you put it to use. :) You should post about some of your favorite books that you're reading along the way!

    When I was in college I took a psychology class using materials from the Institute for Nouthetic Studies. I read some great books by Jay E. Adams and one by Richard Ganz as well. It's such an interesting and necessary topic. I'm excited to hear about Christians taking this part of life seriously!

Four Tips for Creating Community through Blogging

1. Reach out to other bloggers:  this is an  essential when wanting to get into community. It can be as small as a comment on their blog, or an email. I have built relationships with other bloggers through email, commenting on their blogs, etc. For me it has been a beneficial thing, to create community in something that I really didn't know there was any.   This is a great post on why bloggers need community.  2. Join a blog group on Facebook, or some other social media group: I have joined the Peony Project on facebook which is a group for other christian bloggers. It's a great group and i would definitely recommend it!  3. Make meaningful comments: when I say meaningful comments I don't mean that you have to write a novel, but at least engage with the post somehow. Check out Madison's post on how to comment on blogs to find out more.  4. Plan a blogger Meetup : If you there

It's a New Year and with that brings a new season of blogging.  I can't believe it's been two years since we started this blog. It's grown so much, and  I am excited to see where it goes this year as we continue to grow and change. This year I have some exciting new content in store for you all, which i will explain in more detail below. 1. Around The Table Linkup: This is a linkup that I am personally really excited about. It's going to be a linkup where there's a theme for each month, but I may do some months without a theme. Anyway, each month me and my co-host will share a recipe that we use to create community around our tables. And you will have a chance to link it up! I am currently booked with co-hosts until October, but I am looking to fill November and December. So if you are interested email me at: britney.thequietplace@gmail.com and I can give you more information. 2. Blogging Tips: I would like to start posting some blogging tips this year,

Being Content

Content, As christian women we here that word more times than we can count, especially in a season of waiting. Content is defined as,   pleased and satisfied : not needing more.  Have you been in a season in your life where your feel like you are just waiting? Waiting for a new job, waiting for things to get better, waiting for marriage, etc. Whatever you are waiting for, sometimes it just seems like it's taking forever just like a long line at the grocery store.  When I think about being content, my thoughts instantly go to being content in my singleness. How many times have we heard the cliche lines like "just wait, God's got it" said by well meaning people, only to make you feel worse. There was a time in my life where it was so hard to hear all of those lines without just wanting to cry, because like I said it made me feel worse rather than better.  That is when I would get discontent in waiting,  sometimes I feel like i am in this never-endin
