Ep 14 - Resource Highlight - ACCLIMATE MK Debrief Program

In this episode, we welcome members of our MK Debrief team—Steve and Becky Swope, along with Heather and PJ Garton—to talk about ACCLIMATE, our three-day MK Debrief program designed to help missionary kids process transition, identity, and the unique experiences of growing up cross-culturally. Together, we explore what a debrief is—and what it is not—and why it can be so valuable for MKs and their families. Our guests share how ACCLIMATE helps MKs reflect on their story, navigate change, and move into their next season with confidence. Whether you’re an MK yourself or a parent exploring support options for your child, this conversation offers insight, encouragement, and practical help.

Ep 13 - MK Story - Simeon Harrar (MK, Author, Pastor)

In this episode, we sit down with special guest Simeon Harrar—pastor, author, global nomad, and fellow MK.

He’s the author of The Long Flight Home, Between Worlds: My Life as a Missionary Kid, and Finding Tom, exploring identity, belonging, grief, and faith through the MK experience. Now serving as a chaplain at a Christian international school in Nairobi, Kenya, Simeon shares honest reflections on the gifts and losses of the TCK life and how God meets us in the in-between spaces. This is a thoughtful, encouraging conversation for MKs, parents, and anyone who has ever wrestled with the question, “Where is home?”
