We’re release this special interview this week to celebrate the rich, joyful, and unique life of Melissa Inouye. With charming enthusiasm and humor, Melissa shares her unique perspective on managing the sometimes heavy emotions that accompany the process of nurturing faith in a real world and in a real church with real people. Even as Melissa discusses how to cope with the gaps in our lives between the real and the idea, we grieve at the gap that her death has left in our lives and in our church community. We love you and we miss you, Melissa! Thank you for personifying the beauty and joy that can be found in Zion through the way you loved, taught, and lived.
