I was interested to read about the Djibouti understanding of Jinn and pregnancy. It is the same beliefs in Cambodia - with the same details about not complimenting the baby for 40

days post birth. The baby is traditionally not named until that 40 day period too.

I loved your line about faith without doubt is arrogance and courage without fear is foolishness.

I have come to believe that so much we were taught as faith and certainty is really about control and true freedom comes from being able to sit in the mystery of God at work.

I wish I could have joined the zoom call to hear some more of your reflections on being included and excluded. How do you walk that balance now, years later?
