I was once talking to a family member about how much I love living overseas when the response came "Then why don't you go back there!" Ok, so I'm picking up on your message. I make you uncomfortable when I talk about how much I love living outside the United States. Got it.When my wife and I first moved overseas we'd been married for only two months. We didn't really have a chance. We were in it from day one. This was not going to be a "when we were young we once lived overseas" kind of experience. We were hooked.It never dawned on me to write any of it down until now. This book is the result of a little over two year's writing on a blog I started in August 2010 and it includes carefully selected bits about the expatriate lifestyle.With any luck there will be lots more to write about in the years to come!

Ever felt like theology was a four-letter word? Here's a hint: You shouldn't avoid talking about it! We all have a theology for everything. Most of us just never bother to think about it, much less talk about it. Ever wondered about doing the right thing, or doing the wrong thing? What about church stuff? Ever wondered about being baptized, taking communion, or why church even exists in the first place? What about people going to hell? What's with that? This is a book of questions, not answers. This book is intended to share both sides of the argument for each of a handful of things that are important to churches. Hopefully you can use it as a resource to start conversation, and to have a little fun!

"Living in so many places you realize that there is no paradise that exists on its own. Paradise is what you imagine it to be. For some it would be palm trees and white sandy beaches and drinks with little umbrellas in them - maybe most, in fact. For others it's a pine forest on the edge of a lake surrounded by steep valleys with snowcapped peaks in the background. It is what you make it - and it's different for everyone.Living in paradise doesn't rob me of this. It's not like it shatters the image I had of paradise and it turns out it's just a home like any other home - though it is......You can keep the mystery. You can keep the magic. All you have to do is remind yourself every now and then, "Oh my gosh, I live in paradise." It works. It's best if you say it out loud."
