My guest today is Dr. Lisa Clark Diller.  Lisa is an historian of the early modern world and the chair of the History Department at Southern Adventist University.  Lisa is passionate about teaching because she believes that education expands the heart and mind and helps people better become who they were created to be.  It gives them the tools and perspectives and dispositions to be agents of change in their spheres of influence.

Lisa is active in her community, a leader in her church, and enjoys traveling and many other outdoor activities.

Lisa & first met in college, but got to know each other much better later in life when we lived in the same city.  I have long quote Lisa when I talk about taking risks, pushing back against perfection, giving ourselves space to explore and be beginners.  Lisa's encouragement of, "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing poorly," has deeply impacted me and helped move me away from the paralyzing fear of perfection (or rather imperfection!). 

During our conversation, I also discover my word for 2022: Imperfect!  May we each go forth boldly into the world with love, kindness, and with the embrace of imperfection!
