Moving twice, setting up a new apartment, meetings, and searching for a home in a slum have kept me from writing for a while. Instead I offer you some pretty excellent things from some other lovely folks' blogs.
My friend in Mongolia asks, “Have I lost my voice? Does that mean I have lost myself?” It's a question I resonate with, in a place where having a real conversation means struggling on both sides against the language barrier.

I’ve been enjoying reading through the ever so honest and challenging reflections of Sarah as she works with women in the sex trade in Kolkata.
My friend Tim digs into Jeremiah, asks some good questions and comes out saying, “What we do know is that as God’s covenant people our hope lies not in a restored America but in God’s Kingdom come to earth.”
