Cross/Culture is a blend of personal essays, interviews, and cultural analysis built out of my cross-cultural childhood and globe-trotting adult life. It promotes three key ideas:
+ Humans are at their best building bridges across borders and other barriers
+ You don’t have to be a liberal to value diversity
+ Christian faith (even the conservative kind) can and should drive cross-cultural outreach

Yes, of course! I’m on a quest for new readers, so please support my writing by telling others about Cross/Culture on your social networks, in messaging apps, and through in-person conversations.
