Give Me Jesus – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/10/28/give-me-jesus
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. October 28, 2014. September 8, 2016. I was able to Skype Pastor Danny and some of the kids in Cape Town this morning, which meant that I was awake far too early, but it was worth it. Pastor shared a story that was so encouraging and such an incredible reminder of our God’s power and presence that I wanted to take a minute to share it with you. As the school in Cape Town faces the very real possibility of closure at the end of the year and the Pastor and his ...

#firstworldproblems – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/01/01/firstworldproblems
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. January 1, 2014. September 11, 2016. So, it’s New Year’s Eve. Everyone’s out there making well-intentioned resolutions and I’m sitting here thinking about that trending tag line:. Our culture uses that sarcastically. Not a single one of my 46 pairs of shoes match this outfit! My i-Phone charger won’t fit because of my Lifeproof case. The barista gave me two pumps instead of three in my four dollar coffee this morning. Third world countries with real problems.

Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. Want to Make Someone Smile? March 25, 2014. September 8, 2016. Want to do something cool and uplifting for someone else? It’s not gonna cost you anything but a sheet of paper, an envelope, a stamp, and some encouraging words. So this summer I want to take letters, pictures, and drawings back for each child in the school. However, there are 122 of them and only one of me. So I need your help. I want to write a letter! Then you get to write a letter! You type ...

Through Her Eyes – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/04/20/through-her-eyes
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. April 20, 2014. September 8, 2016. Obviously I was not at the scene of Christ’s crucifixion. The story you are about to read is partially my own speculation but I’ve been thinking about it all weekend. So here it is. We should go, Peter whispered. Yes, she replied. She set down the rag and smoothed her skirt. She put out the candle and he reached forward. She took his arm and he led her into the streets. It will all be okay. This murderer or Jesus? Dread fil...

Welcome to Life with Jesus! Warning: Christians Included. – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/03/27/welcome-to-life-with-jesus-warning-christians-included
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. Welcome to Life with Jesus! March 27, 2014. September 8, 2016. Friends, I’m hurt. Not because a couple days ago World Vision amended their policy to hire homosexual married couples. And not because yesterday they reversed their decision and shifted back to their previous policy. Right now, I could really care less about what you think about homosexuality. Honestly, I’m sick and tired of debating about it and, at this moment, I just don’t care. I’m out of here.

Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. Snapshots of Ireland: Jon’s Story. October 13, 2016. October 13, 2016. Note: I have decided to blog about Ireland through the retelling of stories that were told to me. As I traveled with Whitworth this May*, I was able to hear the personal stories of people who were involved in the violence of the Troubles in a variety of ways. We heard from both Loyalists and … Continue reading Snapshots of Ireland: Jon’s Story. When Waiting Becomes Your Comfort-Zone.

Jonah’s Curtain Call: A not-so-glamorous finale – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/07/21/jonahs-curtain-call-a-not-so-glamorous-finale
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. Jonah’s Curtain Call: A not-so-glamorous finale. July 21, 2014. September 8, 2016. You know who I’ve been thinking about a lot this year? It’s a terrible ending. Let’s go back to the beginning of Jonah’s spotlight: The word of the Lord came to Jonah. I used to think, Oh my goodness, that’s so cool. Jonah received the word of the Lord. God spoke to him and gave him messages to tell other people and Jonah got to do it. How could he ever say no? People. Jon...

The Places Where Jesus and Satan Collide – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/03/12/the-places-where-jesus-and-satan-collide
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. The Places Where Jesus and Satan Collide. March 12, 2014. September 8, 2016. Note: Super happy blog post about why I love Nicaragua so much and how fantastic this last week was and how great life is will be coming soon. But this one needed to come first. The attacks, the dreams, the possessed at the end of the road, the magician as I walked down the corridor into the prison, that all-too-familiar knot in my stomach came back, it hadn’t been there in over a y...

One Nation, One City, One Community, One Decision: One Hundred Kids – dépaysement
https://nikkiziegler.wordpress.com/2014/06/28/one-nation-one-city-one-community-one-decision-one-hundred-kids
Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. One Nation, One City, One Community, One Decision: One Hundred Kids. June 28, 2014. September 8, 2016. I had no idea why I came to Africa this year. When Jesus made it clear that I was supposed to return to Cape Town, I considered taking a year and fundraising and putting a team of people together and, ultimately, traveling to Cape Town in the summer of 2015. But Jesus was adamant that it had to be this year. I didn’t know why. Currently, the school is regis...
