About the subject

Bethany is now a summa cum  laude university graduate with a dual degree in history and biblical studies.  Her first theological question, at age 3, was "Mom, why aren't there any girls in the Bible?" She continues to be an astute observer, thinker, and articulator.  Her eventual goal is to teach in a seminary but not without getting in touch with the "real" world.  She is now working part time at a bakery and part time teaching swimming lessons at a health center in Chicago as she wades through the application process to volunteer with a peace making organization in Jerusalem. From nearly being lost before birth and from a car/bike accident at age 7), she has been twice saved. Like Mary the mother of Jesus,  I have often "pondered these things in my heart."  What high and holy plans does God have for this child of His?
