I’m Jazz Ruse, a pastor’s wife in small-town America. I blog, raise my baby son, and spend as much time outside as possible. The better I know Jesus Christ, the more I love Him.

A few of my favorite things

Food: Donuts and any other sweet baked good I can get my hands on.

Book: Subject to change. Lately I’m into biographies. I’m listening to Hidden Figures right now, and I’m full of admiration for those amazing women who are responsible for putting the USA in space.

Outdoor activity: Biking, walking, roller blading, swimming, stargazing, gazing into the distance in general, sitting around a bonfire, swinging—Wait, I’m only supposed to have one?

Verse: Subject to consistently change, but right now it’s all of Psalm 65.

Day of the week: THURZDAY.

Person: Pastor Ruse and my sweet baby boy.

Way to destress: Get outside, bake, or wash the kitchen floor.
