Favorite Holiday: Birthdays. I think they are so great I even celebrate 1/2 birthdays.
Favorite Music: Toby Mac, all the way.
Favorite TV Shows: LOST, Intervention, Home Shopping Network (just kidding on that one…but I do like to shop!)
Favorite Books: The Bible (God), The Barbarian Way (Erwin McManus), The Dream Giver (Bruce Wilkinson), Blue Like Jazz (Don Miller), A Prayer for Owen Meany (John Irving), To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee), The Chronicles of Narnia (C.S. Lewis)
Inspirations: sunrises & sunsets, John 14:12, Devon (my favorite person ever), seeing people discover Jesus
Things I Love: Jesus, my family, sushi, chopsticks, dancing, traveling, authentic relationships, rock climbing, naps, sunshine, chocolate, serving people…A really good day would have all the above packaged in a highly adventurous 24 hours…
Thing I Hate Don’t Love So Much: raw onions, the sound of fingernails being clipped…in church, lies, raw onions, injustice, leeches…did I mention raw onions?
My Biggest Challenge: To trust God, especially when life hurts.
My Childhood Dream: At 5 years old, I wanted to grow up and work as a full-time cheerleader and moonlight as a clown. At 13, I just knew I would be a Pediatric Oncologist. I even went to college on that path (medical, not cheerleading). God has different plans. Or, at least, a different path.
My Dream Today: To love God and love people and, if it’s God’s will, to change the world. The rest has gotten a little fuzzy. I’m praying that my time with AIM will help me to love God, love people and understand life with a little more clarity.
