I met Lindsey the day before Easter at Passion City Church last April. Lindsey was minding her own business waiting for the service to start with her friend Meghan. I was serving as a church bouncer keeping folks from going into the gathering too early while they set up. In a fully impartial move, I struck up a conversation with Lindsey and Meghan (Meghan said it was mostly Lindsey) for the sole purpose of making them feel welcome at church and with no ulterior motives whatsoever. I was part of a wonderful group of young professionals from a bunch of churches around Atlanta, so I offered to take Lindsey's number off her hands to get her and Meghan plugged in with them. After about 24 hours of texting, I learned that 1) Lindsey is hilarious and 2) she has an incredibly solid foundation so I decided it was time to ask her out. Text her...? Nope. Call her...thought about it...but what fun is that? So I FaceTimed her. She didn't answer. She called me back an hour or so later and we ended up talking for another two. I asked her if I could take her on a date that Friday. She said yes. We went to Provino's (I stuffed an entire garlic roll in my mouth to see if this relationship had any shot at all). The date went all the way to Crumbl Cookies and into the next week. And the next week. And the next week. Here we are almost a year later and she's sticking with me. The more I learn about this incredible woman, the more I am in awe of her character, grace, humor, beauty, and strength. She has plenty to say about her version of events but she's an introvert so she'll tell you one on one at the wedding...specifically why FaceTiming someone after 24 hours is a bad idea.
