Tuesday Talk – Reinventing Community

How do you reinvent community?

I live in Snoqualmie Valley. A rural community, once known for sprawling farm land that is now facing the integration of middle class suburbia. Snoqualmie Valley is nestled in the best of NW beauty with the nicest and most talented people you could meet.

More than a mid-week recipe…

By Angela L Craig April 9, 2014 In Family, Purpose, Spiritual Formation 0

The truth is – I rarely cook. That is great sell for someone who is about to post a recipe for you to try. But honest, it isn’t that I can’t cook, it is that my husband is better at it than me.

So first, I would like to say THANK YOU to my husband for all the amazing meals he has crafted for our family and friends.

I guess it is time we have this conversation…as much as you and I would like to avoid it.

We are talking about divorce. It is a reality. Like heart disease or cancer, everyone of us has been affected by it one way or another.

Yes, it is true, my sons are ages 12 and 14. And no, they are not married. But someday they will be. It might even be to your daughter, so you may want to keep reading.

Last night while picking up my son from the ski bus I overheard two moms talking about their pre-teen daughters (age 12). One mother said to the other, “I hope she (referring to her daughter) didn’t freeze, she refused to wear her coat. She said it made her look fat.”

How is Toys R Us shaping our Womanhood and Manhood?

By Angela L Craig January 27, 2014 In Family, Pondering, Purpose 0

We were not born into gender. You and I didn’t come out of the womb wearing pink or blue. Those were the hats we were assigned in the nursery. Our gender is defined by social, physical, and psychological impact (Allen, 2004).

Take a tour of any Toys R Us or other department store and you will find gender communicated from birth.
