Melanie from Axis was just featured on the "Heroes for Her Podcast" from The Bible Belles.  

She was showcased as a woman in the business world and interviewed about her life experience in a unique ministry position with Axis and how it influenced her life. 

There is definitely conversation about "culture translation" and handling smartphones in the family, but mostly - this is a fun, unique opportunity to showcase one of our wonderful employees who is being recognized for her work and character. We say "Brava, Mel!" 

"How do you raise a child who understands the phone the will inevitably handle someday?"

"How do you raise a child who won't be shocked by the world they live in when they reach independence and exposure to culture?"
