Lord, I Don't Want to Die a Christian

My Journal and Journey to Freedom

Beschreibung

Ordained minister believes Christianity hinders her experience of God, Life, and Humanity. "After living in China as a Christian missionary, hosting a two-year Bible study for seven curious Chinese freshman college students, my sense of curiosity inhaled and later exhaled when returning to the practice of western religion. Born into a devoutly religious family, the daughter, niece, and grandchild of Christian clergy, degreed in Biblical Studies, ordained as a reverend of the faith, I now have questions of the religion that raised and readied me. The emittance of questions and resolves thereof have done well in surrendering to me a choice: Christianity or curiosity?" -Chandrika D. Phea

Chandrika D. Phea is living in empowerment-of herself and others. Born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Chandrika never dreamed that she would become a teacher. Teaching English at SIAS University in China to the future generation was life-changing. This experience opened Chandrika's mind to travel the world doing what she has been empowered, mentored, and equipped to do.As a student at Langston University, majoring in Management Information Systems, she also enrolled in ministerial courses at the Judah School of Ministry in OKC to obtain her license in ministry and was ordained. Phea received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Biblical Studies from Beacon University, in Columbus, Georgia. While working toward her degree at Beacon, she became a substitute teacher for Muscogee County School District. She also served as a Young Life leader for Columbus Young Life Urban and volunteered in serving girls' homes as well. Chandrika joined Mission Columbus in 2007, conducting neighborhood Bible studies, building relationships with community members, and creating Vacation Bible Schools in the urban areas of Columbus. This partnership with the community proved as preparation for the position she would later hold in China.The experience of living abroad changed Chandrika's life, giving her the desire to explore the world beyond church ministry. Since returning to the states, her newly found curiosity has led to a new passion in physical fitness, wellness coaching, and the outdoors, where she experiences more of Earth's glory.
