On the other side of adventure

It's true, lots of unexpected things did happen . . . but most of them were unexpectedly good! We definitely felt God's provision and protection throughout the trip and, while there were hard times, there were lots of purely fun times as well.

Sitting on a white sand beach, taking a word list ten feet from the ocean and then drinking a deliciously refreshing kulau (green coconut), swimming in spring water inside a huge cave, eating perfectly fried bananas, sitting under a house singing to God with twenty Papua New Guineans I'd never met before, waking up and seeing a shooting star, having dinner with a Dutch gypsy, paddling a canoe through the waves . . .

Yes, it was a good survey!
