A journal of my study in Jordan and further reflections on the Arab world, Islam and the Middle East.
In an important article translated and posted at MEMRI.org, a Saudi activist by the name of Wajeha Al-Huwaidar speaks out against honor killings. There is evil in the world, and it is to our shame if we do not speak out against it as well.

My trip to Jordan lasted from Dec 28, 2006 to Jan 19, 2007. For friends and family this is where I originally posted pictures and journaled (I had a good internet connection, and a bit of time in the evenings). Since returning to the U.S., I now reflect here from time to time on the Middle East, Islam, and related issues. I continue to teach world religions, work on Christian theology, and interrelate with Muslim friends.
