I used to teach English to Korean kindergarteners in Seoul, South Korea. This was an immersive program, so the kids were only supposed to hear English during the day, which made it ok that I couldn’t speak Korean.

This became a problem when it was lunchtime, and seven different classes all came together at the bathrooms to wash hands before tromping to the cafeteria. It was chaos. Absolute chaos in the beginning of every year as dozens and doz...
You know, Lord, recently, having just read Psalms 16:11, “You show me the path of life.

Then an older gal came through a backroom door, looked, smiled and also said, “Hi, Joy, nice to see you again this week! Jenny will take care...

I'd invited two neighboring women over for breakfast, loosely scheduled, of pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream,...
