Just got back from a training for missionary leaders where I had the opportunity to share a little bit about emotional connection, what it is, and why cross-cultural folks need it. This came up...

From the article, Missionary Mommy Wars. Read the full article in Serving Well or here: https://www.alifeoverseas.com/missionary-mommy-wars/

Just heard from some Kyrgyz friends in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. They've been going over the recordings from our last training, translating and honing, and are planning to lead another group of local believers through the Seeing the Hearts of the Hurting material on their own in February. The team there has been through the training two or three times, so they're ready!

It is good and well to get better at allowing emotions. However, all of this allowance of and deference to feelings (which I'm a fan of) has to come with some help for dealing with the feelings once they've come. I'm not sure we're always very good at that.
