Sharing our good things.
Tell us something about your life in international development, faith, missions, cross-culturally…anything. Tell us something you have seen, heard about, done that is:
Interesting
Good
Kind
Beautiful
Generous
Lovely
Intriguing
Honorable
You get the idea. Tell us something good.
Here’s mine:
Doors and gates here are beautiful in a non traditional way. That’s the best kind of beauty.
Just a few links this week, didn’t have time for more!
Learning from the Global South
(aka, in my words, some folks need to get their heads out of their…sand boxes). This is a fabulous article by Marilyn Gardner at A Life Overseas.
Conversation about neighboring - being one and being neighbored
Podcast interview with Doris Swift at Fierce Calling
This is what all the artsy folks are talking about this week.
What’s your good things you’ve read or seen or done this week?
Good News Fridays
I love that gate! Where is it? Just downloaded the podcast episode and am so looking forward to listening to it. The NYT article brings up some very compelling questions about copyright law that I will be mulling over for a long time, plus the personal aspect of the two authors featured in the story is a very powerful element of this piece. Also, the Led by the Global South article is phenomenal, so challenging in the best of ways. I am particularly inspired to more frequently and intentionally engage in self-critique and self-reflection in the context of cultural humility, and to continually approach God with thanksgiving, plus an acknowledgement that His ways are higher than ours.
