I recently had an inspiring chat with Wendy Zahorjanski about embracing cultural diversity. As someone who grew up in a small town in Vermont with little exposure to other cultures, Wendy had her perspective expanded when she moved overseas. Initially, she experienced total culture shock - exhausted, unable to communicate effectively, and stripped of her independence.
But Endy shares how this challenging experience revealed her pride and self-reliance, forcing her to lean on God and her community. Through it all, Wendy found incredible grace from the Lord. She realized God loves us as we are, even in our weakness, as He works to bring healing and growth.
Wend says immersing herself in another culture enriched her faith, helping her distinguish cultural Christianity from actual Biblical truths. I was so encouraged by Wendy's humility and trust in God's patient guidance. She urges us to seek the Lord about opportunities to understand other cultures, even if we never leave our hometowns.
When we ask and wait on Him, God can orchestrate divine appointments. If y u want to hear more of Wendy's inspiring cross-cultural journey, check out her new book Hard is Only Half the Story on Amazon. Let her story challenge and encourage you!
