I live in Seattle and work for GOOD NEWS Associates. You can read more about my ministry at  www.goodnewsassoc.org/mskrom. Besides being a hospital chaplain, spiritual director, retreat facilitator, Quaker, wife, and mother, I like to play with theology and faith and make it be relevant to life. Everything I know about God gets put to the test by my experiences in the real world, and everything I experience in the real world affects how I understand God to be present to us. The fruits of my musings are what you will see on these pages.

In my faith life I move back and forth between contemplation and action. I am a spiritual director and chaplain, and also a spiritually-based activist by nature. When I see something I perceive to be a problem, I like to engage it and come up with ideas for solutions. In this blog, I will wrestle with issues of Quaker faith, practice, and culture, and I’ll write about the condition of liberal Quaker Meetings as I see it. 

I have another blog, too, http://susannekromberg.wordpress.com, where I look more broadly at liberal Christian theology. I do something very similar in it, except my framework there is to look at liberal Christian faith.
