everyday redemption.

in the whirlwind of the last few weeks, this blog has been neglected. (wait, who i am kidding? it’s always a whirlwind.)

my last job was slowly sucking the life out me, day by day. (did you get that? my last job?). so anyway, at my last job, i felt stuck, like i had no out, no options, and yes, sometimes it even felt like i had no hope.

and then, out of the proverbial blue: a new opportunity. a new beginning. a new job. as my friend shanley texted me when i told her the good news, “this is everyday redemption.”

this is. everyday redemption. and He is forever faithful.

I'm Gina Munsey, a Jesus-lover and a sojourner; a weaver of words, anchored in hope. I am Mexico-born, Eastern Europe-raised missionary kid who ended up being a Californian by way of Florida outside of Nashville, Tennessee -- but we landed here before The Great Migration. I live my days full of coffee and adventures while my 12-year-old learns Mandarin Chinese and Greek, my 3-year-old uses all the markers, and my artist-husband creates worlds from pixels and light. I'm an editor, a magazine contributor, and a writer who has only completed four chapters of my languishing manuscript. On any given day, you can find me in the middle of [home]school surrounded by stacks and stacks of books. Oh, and the name of this blog? Oaxaca -- wuh-HA-kuh -- is in Southern Mexico, where I was born! (See full bio).
