Thank you for sharing your reflections on being ‘in the air again.’ Your perspective on finding meaning and peace even during the uncertainty of travel really resonates. It’s a great reminder to embrace the journey, both physically and spiritually. I always appreciate your thoughtful insights!

Have you read The New Yorker magazine 11/4/21. this week about the Teen Challenge program? It’s like the fundamentalist Christian church you describe in your recent book only a lot more abusive. I am surprised to see you support Teen Challenge and find others who do too without awareness of these reports. Having worked at as a chaplain at a Christian drug and alcohol rehab in Parker CO I have experience with the spiritual 12 step program and how much good it can do. So I was dismayed to read about Teen Challenge. Enjoyed your memoir.

You have no idea how much I can relate to this situation! I recently went to Uganda (June 2021) and was inundated with delays, ultra expensive last minute Covid tests, and spiritual challenges that made me grateful for the success of simple tasks. I returned home exhausted, challenged and minus the top of a finger (story for later?)! Thanks for the forward Celeste. Here’s to those who travel bull doggedly!

In reply to Christopher Montelongo. You're very kind. I've done enough international traveling to get accustomed to surprises. The Serenity Prayer helps at such times!

Philip, I just want to say a simple yet heartfelt “thank you. ” While there are times when I’m at peace, anger grips me on so many other occasions. Just projecting myself into your situation at the airport instantly filled me with anxiety and extreme frustration. I fear I would’ve handled it much differently … unbecoming a Christian. I am greatly encouraged by your testimony of yielding to the Holy Spirit to remain calm and resourceful, and navigate your way through the seemingly insurmountable obstacle before you. Again, thank you.

Dear Sir,
Pleasant to see the word ” Trophies of Grace” those who are neglected and rejected by the world in the sight of the Almighty. What amazing God!

Philip,
I have just finished at teen challenge programme in the U.K. it is a truly remarkable place with the Holy Spirit profoundly at work among the residents. I 4-5 of your books during my time at teen challenge and continue to still do so and they really helped open my mind and understanding of Gods presence as well as introducing me to many other great authors. Thank you. Gareth

Wow, this post is so encouraging at so many levels, not least because I’m myself stranded in Frankfurt, pregnant, with my husband and three little ones.
I’m so encouraged by hearing the work of this kind of ministries. Thank you for sharing and for your work, Philip!

Wow…as always Philip you are amazing! Thanks for that story and for opening my eyes to see the powerful impact of Jesus in the lives of those whom the society scorns. Truly like He says, “whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, that you do unto Me”. May God keep blessing you sir.
