That is amazing. I wonder how her response impacted him. She truly is a special person. Thanks for sharing this!

I have felt like an object before but thankfully I haven;t felt that way in a long, long time. I loved this post. And i love your heart :)

Praying for you all.

What a great honor. I'm so excited for you and and I'll be praying for your trip. I'm so excited to see what God has in store for you

Thanks Rachel! You're so kind. :) And I totally agree with you on the girl power!

I also think we need to start a twitter campaign for Jon to allow me to guest post. *ahem* ;)

I love you. Sorry for being mush on your blog, Tray but I had to say it! :)

"We say we believe that God loves us as we are, but live as if God is disappointed and even angry when we fall short. This line of thinking causes us to live as orphans separated from God trying to manage sin on our own and keeps us on a perpetual cycle of shame."- This is so true. And the sooner people realize that this cycle is broken though wen it is brought into community the sooner true healing, and true living can begin. Good post!

Oh my goodness... 60 years. That is amazing and powerful to think about. I pray that Jesse and I can share that.

Don't you think that this life is all about being "half-way there"? Which incidentally is both sucky and glorious at the same time.

Jesse and I are driving to Chicago on the 30th and staying 2 nights with @bradgross. I totally think we should do this with Brad! But you might not get the video until the 2nd.
