Harriet is a wife to a retired chemistry teacher, mother to three sons, and grandmother of seven who reflects on theology and life in Portland, Oregon. Born in Japan as a “hafu” (a colloquial term for half Japanese and half any other part of the world), her cultural identity is just one of several stories that she has of being caught in-between worlds. In the years since graduating with an MDiv and teaching Bible/biblical languages at Multnomah University, rereading her Bible from that middle space has become an adventure of rediscovering faith and God. Harriet is on the teaching team at Cascade Church Portland but she feels the most at home in the woodshop (and not the kitchen).
