"I tend to lean pretty far in the self
disclosing direction when I share here on the blog. I've pulled back a
little bit as the kids have gotten older as far as the specifics I share
about them, images, etc, but I'm still a fairly open book with my own
story. I share bits about our marriage that Dave approves, but for the
most part I'm a one woman show in this space.
"The reason I share so much about my own life and my ongoing conversion is because I believe so deeply in the power of story.
"When I was reawakening to the truth
towards the end of my first run through college (I basically had two
separate college experiences - 4 years at CU Boulder where I did my
level best to uphold the party school reputation, and 3 years at
Franciscan University of Steubenville where I finished my BA and started
my MA) much of the awakening happened while listening to CDs and tapes
(this was pre podcast era, people) of other people's conversion stories."
In a recent commentary, writer Jenny Eubbing reflected on the power of story in sharing one's faith and related experiences.
