I still … Continue reading Chocolate Pudding Spirituality: We Are All a Mess

By Ben Girdler Getting sick sucks. Being sick in Mexico sucks more. Having a 106 degree fever while on a mission trip in Mexico, on your 17th birthday, being mildly allergic to the meds the nurse in Mexico gives you and having diarrhea all day for several days even after you get home sucks the … Continue reading Sick in Mexico: When Jesus Didn’t Wear a White Robe
By Andy Clapp I had always dreamed of a career where I traveled.
