If you could choose just one experience that makes you want to be part of the church (as a young adult) what would it be?

It was a hot day, about 85 degrees F in the middle of November. No, it wasn´t an Indian Summer (to be politically incorrect), but just a normal day in Brazil. I was sweating on my way to work. As I approached the building I work in, I looked acros...

My favorite quote(s)...
"A mind is a world. If you can change a mind you can change the world."

For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. (Ephesians 2:10)
If I could live anywhere... (why?)
Sao Paulo, Brazil- I'm living here now and love it
I most feel the presence of God when...
... I ride the bus
...I sit in front of candles and reflect and pray
...I am running
...I take a few moments to realize how much I really have
...I experience forgiveness
...I witness random acts of kindness
...I travel the world
I'm passionate about...
...other languages and cultures
...ONE Campaign
...evangelism
...running
...advocacy
...music
In the future, I will be...
...a mother
...a wife
...a friend
...a good listener
...someone who wants to change my community
My biggest struggle with discerning/following "my call" is...
doubting myself.

Now: I feel as though I am too young and not taken seriously. How much of an impact can I make now? How much of an impact can I ever make?

In my future: I wonder if I will honestly have time to live out my dream of having a family if I also live out what God wants me to do. Can I serve God to my fullest if I'm taking full of a carload of kids to a soccer game? Is that how I'm serving God? Should I put my dreams of a family aside to follow what I feel is my call? I just don't know...

i also struggle with seeing God in the hard times. Like now.
A person/people who has/have helped me grow in my faith...
is Jon Wolseth. I took a course on the Anthropology and Sociology of Christianity from him. It rocked every foundation of religion I had ever known. And yet, by God's grace, I still believe.
Because of my faith, I...
believe all people are created equally and am working to change injustices

Opening blinded eyes

It was a hot day, about 85 degrees F in the middle of November. No, it wasn´t an Indian Summer (to be politically incorrect), but just a normal day in Brazil. I was sweating on my way to work. As I approached the building I work in, I looked across the street to see a man and a woman sitting on a mattress on the sidewalk. It was obvious that this is where they had slept the night before; their clothes were dirty, their hair was matted and all their belongings were piled next to them. I glanced o… Continue

The Power of a Thank You

I arrived in the airport in Brazil, touching ground for the first time in South America. It was a scary yet thrilling experience. With two suitcases, a carry-on and a year ahead of me, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. And my limited vocabulary of “Hello,” “goodbye,” “thank you” and “you’re welcome” in Portuguese didn’t ease any of the nervousness. But, following the crowds, I somehow managed to make it from the plane to the luggage pick-up and, eventually, to my hotel.

My first month in Braz… Continue

Be Good to Yourself

Things were getting out of control. I have to plan my year out of the country that is quickly approaching. I need to figure out what classes I’m taking next year. I am required to work all of my assigned shifts and my work schedule is packed with 30 to 40 hours of work a week. Various extracurricular and global concerns groups are expecting I attend outside meetings to plan events and prepare for competitions.

Why do I continue to fill my schedule? To prepare myself for the future of course! To… Continue

God's not red or blue

As a liberal political junkie, I could not restrain myself from watching tonight’s debate between John McCain and Barack Obama. Before the debate began, miscellaneous news casters and political analysts gave their opinions of what was to come. Would McCain blow Obama out of the water with fierce attacks? Would Obama blast McCain with smart remarks? The results of the debate is anyone’s guess. However, behind the heads of the loud-talking, opinionated people who were trying to convince viewers th… Continue

I love to give charity, but I don’t want to be charity…

So, I just had an “Ah-ha!” moment and I figured I should share it with someone. I’ve always known God has loved me since I was a child. To me, God has always been all-knowing, all-powerful, and somehow all-forgiving. God’s grace is such an amazing thing that, at times, I almost feel as though it is too much, as though God’s grace isn’t right for me, as though I don’t need it.

But I was reading the book Blue Like Jazz and a few lines in it struck me. The author Donald Miller says, “I love to giv… Continue

I'm sorry I missed you that last day! They kept me really busy, and I just wanted to get outta there. How have you been? When will you go back to Luther?

I adore you!! Is your cell phone number still going to be the one I can reach you at when you're back at school?

Hey yo! Classes start Sept. 2. I truthfully haven't even looked at schedules cause I don't really know what to pick, but orientation starts tomorrow! I'm nervous, but honestly, I still feel like I made it this far already! Expect a call from me soon...love!

Yeah, not many people know that about me. But it is a huge part of my spiritual story. :) Thanks for your support, but I really am doing great now.

Girl lemme just say life has been absolutely chaotic! But, I LOVE seminary and I have been truly blessed thus far. I'm continually discerning and listening, but I currently feel really pulled to be a pastor, specifically in an urban setting. I really am not feeling my Christians and Muslims class, and am thinking I'm gonna be a pastor and then MAYBE go on for Ph.D. work...perhaps in Old Testament?? LSTC is the BOMB. How's school with you?
