About Me

My photo
I've described my faith life as like one of those funnel gadgets, being raised in the extremely narrow end of fundamentalism, then moving into the gradually widening scope of the evangelical, through orthodox Reformed theology, and now probably more progressive. My journey is bringing me to become more human, more incarnated and more a citizen of the Kindom of God in the world God loves.

  1. Becky, In organizing my files and boxes, I came across your dissertation The Green Table Project Knitting Mill Creek Community Garden. Can you tell me how and where you shared the text? Do you still see and practice the spiritual connection between gardening and your religious beliefs? Gardening has been a tool for many in enduring the stress of Covid 19. What are you thoughts on this? I would love to hear from you. Diane
