A Place To Call Home<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bryn, Reyna, and Erin Golson have always known that \u201chome\u201d isn\u2019t just a spot on a map \u2014 it\u2019s where your family is and where your roots grow deep even when planted in foreign soil. The three sisters grew up hand-in-hand in the small town of Knysna on the southern coast of South Africa. As missionary kids, they learned early that family is more than just important \u2014 it\u2019s everything.<\/p>\n

Hear their story of finding home through family and faith on this week\u2019s episode of the Cedarville Stories podcast.<\/p>\n

The sisters\u2019 parents moved to South Africa from Florida to launch a Christian radio station, only to have the door close before it could even open. But in true Golson fashion, they didn\u2019t quit \u2014 they found new ways to serve. Through church planting, teaching, and simple, Christlike friendship, the Golsons poured out love in a land far from their American beginnings. The girls soaked up the warmth of the South African culture, learning to slow down, listen, and love their neighbors well.<\/p>\n

Years later, returning to the United States was jarring. Grocery stores felt like massive shopping malls, and everything moved too fast. But when everything else felt unfamiliar, the sisters had each other, and they had Cedarville University. With family friends on the faculty and a strong community of fellow missionary and third culture kids, Cedarville felt like a soft landing place. Its unwavering commitment to God and His Word made it a natural choice for the Golsons.<\/p>\n

Though they miss the ocean air of Knysna, their parents, and the life they once knew, the sisters have found peace. In the laughter of shared stories, leaning on each other through the hard days, and growing deeper in their faith, they\u2019ve found something beautiful: a new kind of home.<\/p>\n

And for the sisters, Cedarville isn\u2019t just a stop along the way \u2014 it\u2019s part of their story. It\u2019s home.<\/p>\n
