A couple weeks ago, Cru did an outreach in UCSB called "What's Your Story?" This involved people writing "3 minute testimonies" and having them posted on a website, a video of cardboard testimonies, and going out asking questions about stories and how people fit into an overarching story. I wrote mine and made sure it was about three minutes when I read it out loud. It will have to do for now, but I feel like it could have been better. First, I wrote that in the middle of the night before Epic Retreat so I could submit it on time. Second, I just followed a given format from a sheet that asked specific questions. I decided to just answer those questions. However, in order to keep it about three minutes while answering the questions, I felt like I left out a lot of details.
While I did mention that I tried to find identity in how others thought of me, I forgot to mention that I also tried finding my identity in doing well in school and being the smart kid in the family. There's a lot more to my testimony, but right now I feel that maybe it is best saved for whenever someone really wants to talk to me about it. It's just more personal that way.
I will end this as my shortest blog post.
Until next time,
Kenneth
