7) I dig a good sweater vest
8) I'm not a fan of choral music
9) I want to read more
10)I'm a big fan of gardens
11)I am actually kind of a fan of who I am when I act like myself

Cambridge

This has been an amazing week. There's something so awesome about this half of the conference. The campuses in Cambridge have an almost mythic quality. Quiet gardens, open fields, a slowly winding river that borders it all. I've had really cool times of prayer and fellowship with friends and I'm so grateful for the experience. It has also been one of those identity defining weeks that I really appreciate. I feel like God's been peeling back the layers and reminding me of what it feels like to truly act like, or perhaps be, myself.
