This Tuesday is voting day. After I drop off my oldest girl at school, my youngest daughter and I will head across the street to the Community Center to cast my ballot. It’s not lost on me how significant it is that I, a woman, get to vote. Participating in our democratic system humbles me. I think about women all over the world who will never have that opportunity. I think about the women who went before me to make my right to vote a reality. I think about my daughters and how fortunate they are to live in a time in history when not only do they have the right to vote but they have a true opportunity to be on the ballot themselves. Voting is important to me.

How to Choose Between Political Candidates
I struggle with how much to say about my beliefs on political candidates especially on social media.
On one hand I think that the world needs more Christians to verbalize truth. Notice I said truth, not religious dogma, but what the Bible actually says in all its analysis and contexts.
