Hi all, We just wanted to send out an apology for last week’s “Fu Man-chew” cartoon. We in no way meant for it to be derogatory at all. However, a reader informed us of the negative history of the character, and as soon as we were made aware of it, we took the cartoon down.

The cartoon this week was inspired by real life experience: the boss’s speech bubble is a slightly-paraphrased (and only slightly) version of an actual email that was sent out at work.

I love to be amazed. I have a personal motto, “living the amazement.” I tend to get really excited, talk a lot with my hands, and laugh loudly. One of my favorite things to do is go exploring with my family and find something we did not know about before, big or tiny. Most of all I am amazed by God. Tim is the resident coffee-guru, scone-baker, hand-tool woodworker, and beard-grower. We’re an urban family, adventuring together through this life, keeping our hearts first and foremost on God.
