A Book On Loan: My Time at The Seattle School
When I knew I was leaving The Seattle School, it occurred to me that I felt like a book that had been on inter-library loan. Perhaps somehow the kingdom of God was like a big inter-connected library system. The metaphor captured the strong sense I have had from the early days of my tenure at […]

A Love of Coffee and a Change of Plans: How My Time at The Seattle School Helped Me Find My Calling
In 2010 my husband and I were in Moshi, Tanzania working under a non-profit doing sustainable development projects.

The Years: From a Cross-Country Roadtrip to Life after The Seattle School
The years. The minutes and seconds and moments, both key and not so much so, all seem to happen so quickly; so instantly; so irretrievably wonderfully fast, don’t they? Our selves are born (thrown, I would say is more accurate) into relationship with this paradox known as life and helped to survive it; and if […]
