It warms my heart that you "get it" you are developing a spiritual compassion for these people. Like any society, there's good/bad, kind/mean, strict/liberal - not all Americans are represented by the TV show Honey Boo Boo or Duck Dynasty. <br />I hope to post more stories in the coming month so stay tuned. And always feel free to ask questions. I was privileged to ask intimate questions & learn tons of particular details when Mosie lived with us for a year. He's a great guy (that's my Mom's opinion).Brenda Nixon, Author and Speakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11052093071339488784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3310657230805051362.post-23067752485529752122013-01-25T12:50:20.915-05:002013-01-25T12:50:20.915-05:00Fascinating ~ as well as so sad! :( Thank you fo...Fascinating ~ as well as so sad! :( Thank you for this insight.

Mosie must have been quite surprised to realize there are "English" people (those other than Amish) who love God and live for Him while also experiencing the true freedom of the gospel.Laurie Winslow Sargenthttp://www.parentingbyfaith.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3310657230805051362.post-15927201196877231282013-01-17T14:08:12.345-05:002013-01-17T14:08:12.345-05:00It's a fascinating culture, and I applaud you ...It's a fascinating culture, and I applaud you for helping others understand the freedom and grace of the Christian faith.Janet Holm McHenryhttp://www.janetmchenry.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3310657230805051362.post-3661044645601655602013-01-17T14:06:07.376-05:002013-01-17T14:06:07.376-05:00Thank you for the insight into the Amish world.
