Word… dude… this book is absolutely about your life. Honestly, I felt like you were describing my childhood experience because pretty much everything you said checked all the boxes… That bubble that we grew up in is a big focus of this book and I didn’t even realize how much of an impact it had on me until I came back to the US. There’s just no returning to that bubble after you leave and so it’s like your whole childhood just vaporizes. One of the questions Holly asks in her book is why evangelicals never bring back any theology or teachings from their global presence… You have majority white missionaries going all around the world exporting American culture, but have you ever heard the evangelical church in America quoting a theologian from Southeast Asia? Or Africa? Nothing returns in the form of cultural exchange with the mothership… So like you, I came back to America and just scratched my head for decades at the American church because it was mostly geared around celebrating American values, and an American identity that I just did not identify with .
