My Voice

If the pen is mightier than the sword, it is also mightier than my vocal chords.

Goodness 201

I feel like I’ve been in a crash course lately. It should be called Goodness 201–it’s a bit of remediation, some review, and some new lessons in God’s goodness to me.

Wounded

I was wronged. I was taken for granted. My objections, fears, and questions were voiced; they were heard and disregarded. I felt insignificant, powerless, and defeated.

Bravery and Grace

I think bravery must really be grace in action. God doesn’t give us grace till we need it.

Third Culture Kid

A Third Culture Kid is an individual who, having spent a significant part of their developmental years in a culture other than their parent's home culture, develops a sense of relationship to all of the cultures, while not having full ownership in any. Elements of each culture are incorporated into the life experience,but the sense of belonging is in relationship to those of similar experience.
