a fresh perspective

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers." - M. Scott Peck


I went back to my room last night after our conference call with Larry, and I kept thinking about the blasphemy challenge Renee, Laura, and Larry discussed. Larry pointed out that the people who accept this challenge may be faced with serious questions about faith and God. He even suggested that these people might find the Truth. Thanks for shedding some new light.

So after I read the quote, it made me think of what this mission trip is for me. Signing up for Vancouver without knowing anyone was definitely out of my comfort zone, but after our first couple meetings, I was so excited and sure that this was going to be an amazing experience.
