10. Thailand is the hottest place I have ever been. We joked we were living on the center of the sun.
9. Thai hospitality is absolutely incredible.
8. Thai night markets are my favorite thing EVER.
7. “Blessed are the flexible for they do not easily break” became a daily phrase our team used.
6. Thailand is a country with less than 1% Christians, so there is a huge opportunity to bring God’s Kingdom to the Kingdom of Thailand
5. Leading a new team during the hottest summer in 65 years was challenging, but the Lord taught me to lead with transparency and vulnerability.
4. Sometimes when you give up on riding an elephant in Thailand, the Lord provides one out of nowhere in the middle of a Thai village. He is good. All the time.
3. Sharing the gospel to a room full of 5th graders and having the majority accept Christ as their personal Savior was one of the sweetest moments on the race.
2. Tiger Balm became my very best friend.
1. Chicken Pad Thai and Iced Thai Tea. BOOM.
Thailand was great! It wasn’t really what I expected but I fell in love with the people, the food and the culture. I learned that I really enjoy teaching – even if I have to make up the lesson plan as I go. I will be back one day, Thailand.
