I get the privelage of taking women from the US to go hear the stories of women in other worlds...women affected by slavery, poverty, HIV/AIDS, all while being wives, mothers, strugglers, some hopeful and others hope-less. If you would be interested in joining a group of women traveling to Thailand to hear first-hand the stories of women affected by sex slavery, contact me at Lynnee@occ.org for more information. There is value in hearing, caring and then sharing stories that advocate for the right of women to embrace their God-given dignity, power and value. I love the conversation about women.

I use it all the time - primarily to remind myself of my own need/desire to tell the truth; my own need/desire to split worlds open. And yes, it's perfect for this book. Voice being given to a woman's truth and the hope that comes from thinking that maybe, just maybe a new and better world could be birthed. I hope, as well. Thank you.
