A Century of Divine Design | A Poetic Reflection shares Rev. Linda Furtado’s morning-of writing for a historical marker unveiling at Scarritt Bennett Center. Grounded in Psalm 78:1–4 and Isaiah 43:19 (CEB), and echoing Matthew 11:28, this post weaves memory, justice, hospitality, and generational witness into a hopeful poem about God “doing a new thing” across a century of sacred leadership and community.
A creative writing experiment sparked by a Facebook prompt: “Describe self-love in the midst of a relationship.” These community responses become lyric drafts and poems exploring boundaries, identity in God, healing, and the everyday work of loving self and others.
Discover the raw and reflective story behind Rev. Linda Furtado’s journey of identity, calling, and creativity — shaped through ministry, motherhood, and the work that reveals who we truly are.
