"Look Out World, Here I Come!"

Morgan, M. Alexis

"Look Out World, Here I Come!"

Hot, sweaty, dirty, sore, and irritated, I began my solo journey to the other side of the planet."Alexis Morgan was realizing a lifelong dream: to go beyond her relatively easy North American lifestyle and extend a hand to those less fortunate than herself. Look Out World, Here I Come! is a gut-wrenching, heart-warming, and oftentimes hilarious compilation of the journals Alexis wrote during the years she and her husband lived and worked in Kenya as part of a Christian humanitarian agency. Weaving together actual-time stories of Alexis's work and personal life, the reflections are real, raw, relatable, and poignant. As a wife and mother of three teenage/young-adult boys, Alexis shares some of her struggles in "letting go" and empowering her kids to become independent in a surprisingly similar way to the work she was striving to do with impoverished communities. Within these pages, readers will find inspiration and encouragement through her reflections on:. what it is like to live in a developing country as a Westerner, . the amazing strength and resilience of people when faced with extreme poverty, . the importance of gratitude for all that we have, including the riches of a loving family and community, . the key role of empowerment in fostering the development of individuals and communities. the relevance and significance of Scripture for working through real life issues.Join Alexis for a deeper understanding of the importance of family, home, community, love, strength, hope, perseverance and faith when facing and overcoming life's challenges.
