From the Hangar - Episode 15 with Sheri Sanders

On this episode of From the Hangar one of our MAF teachers, Sheri Sanders, joins host Lem Malabuyo to talk about her time in Wamena, Papua, Indonesia.

With many years of experience working as a teacher, Sheri provides insight into the differences of teaching in a U.S. public school and teaching in an overseas mission context. She also shared her journey of faith during her time in Wamena with the MAF community; how God grew her faith in ways that prepares her for what's to come.
