Sn. 4|Ep. 9: Friendships and Leaving Your “Home” Country (with Leah Musacchio)
On this episode, we talk with TCK to Indonesia, Leah Musacchio.
Join our conversation as we talk about friendships, finding purpose and belonging in temporary seasons, and making your home in Jesus regardless of where you are living. You’ll hear Leah share her own stories and experiences of navigating her way through life away from her home country and how God met her in her culture shock and sadness. This is a great episode with practical advice for TCKs navigating big changes in their lives.
