1. i'm abby huggins. currently living in grenada. working with grenada community development agency. you can ask me more. or look at my blog. but i'm not really sure what i do.

2. at the moment, as far as a theme song, all i can think of is an avett brother's song (surprise): gift for melody anne which speaks of a heart being true. a soul feeling brand new...

3. i believe that there is a holiness dwelling in all people. and by honoring that holiness, we're honoring our Creator.

4. daily i question why i ended up in grenada... and i continue to wait and see...

5. the story of moses taking off his shoes (exodus 3ish?) in front of the burning bush means a lot to me right now. he takes off his shoes in recognition of the presence of God. in honor of the holy ground he is standing on. here in grenada, a lot of people walk around the neighborhood without shoes. reminds me to recognize God's presence, God's holiness in all places. on all ground. in all people.

6. there's always more about the old testament to learn. its quite overwhelming. the apocrypha is something i haven't really read before... and there's always more depth within the gospels to explore...

7. i'm open to pretty much anything. i'm very excited about hearing everyone's insights. and engaging in discussion. i've yet to find a spiritual small group to belong to here. erin's suggestion of the red tent with scripture sounds interesting... it may take me a while to get a hold of a copy of the novel, though. regardless of what we read/study, i'm already really thankful for this group...
