Quotes:

“There's all of this layered intensive work that needs to be done to reach women at the heart.” -Megan

“We wanted to pass that torch to the next generation of understanding properly who our Father in Heaven is and what that implies about who we are and how we should treat one another.” -Megan

“Your ethnic identity is something that God has given you. And when we try to become colorblind about that or when we try to ignore that we do a disservice to a part of God's creation.” -Tasha

“I wanted to diminish the things that were different about me….I wanted to blend because my separateness or my differentness was such a point of pain. People were mean.” -Megan

“And I just remember always feeling like I had one foot in each space, but I was welcome in neither.”  -Megan

“I'm always painfully aware of my differences on the outside before I'm aware of anything else when I'm around new people.” -Megan
