Spirited Voyager: A Memoir of Motherhood, Mission, and Ministry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781631296895)

Spirited Voyager: A Memoire of Motherhood, Mission and Ministry, is a broad-brush account of Rev. Dr. Susan M. Hudson's journey of faith from childhood until the present time. She and her family have traveled the world together in service to Christ's mission of love and grace. Sue's "comfort zone" would make most people uncomfortable, because she thrives in cross-cultural contexts and loves learning languages, though she is not fluent in any of them. She has dabbled in Greek, Hebrew, German, Korean, Urdu, Hindi and Spanish. She enjoys living life "in between" cultures.Sue gives us a taste of those travels as their family grew from two members to five. Her first priority was always her children once they arrived on the scene; however, her husband, David, also encouraged her to keep learning and following God's call upon her life. The pace of their journey was fast. They had to pick up their roots and start over more often than they had hoped, but when God invited them into a new adventure, they always responded, "Yes." The third "Raft" on Sue's journey, "The Raft of Inner Healing," slows the pace and helps Sue put the jigsaw pieces of her life and ministry together.
