It has been over two months since I began the Fellows Program and I have yet to write a word about life as a fellow or what I am learning and thinking about.

There has been so much... newness. A barrage of new people, new places, new experiences, new ideas, new lifestyles, new challenges. I have found it difficult to remove myself from this newness enough to write about it. But I think I am beginning to understand what it is that I am thinking, processing, and learning, so I hope to begin to articulate those thoughts here.

Thus far my experience, in brief, can be described as...

Life-giving

Humbling

Enlarging

I will dedicate a post to each of these words and tease apart their relevance to my experience soon. But for now, I will simply say that I feel so blessed to be here, in this community, and I have no doubt whatsoever that God has called me to this place and is doing wondrous things.
