  I’m not sure whether it was the beautiful tattoo on the back of her neck, or that she smelled like all the best essential oils blended together, but I immediately noticed her sitting there in the row in front of us at church.  It wasn’t until she opened her mouth that I realized who she was.  That was years… Read More

But because healing requires that we name where we are,
and freedom comes as we choose to bravely step out of hiding.
