Is The Term "Gotcha Day" Offensive?

Is The Term "Gotcha Day" Offensive?

When I first heard it, it totally rubbed me the wrong way. “Gotcha Day” sounds like something out of a Pokemon episode . . . you know the bit: Gotta Catch ‘Em All, POKEMON!  If you had asked me this question when I first heard the phrase, I’d have told you that it was definitely offensive.

The Patriarchal Trifecta: A Tribute To My Fathers

I’m the girl with three fathers.  This father’s day is a first, as I get to celebrate my dad, my biological father, and now my father-in-law.  I am blessed to be surrounded by men who set such a wonderful example of what it means to be selfless, what it means to be true to yourself, and what it means to follow Jesus.  This Father's Day, I have the privilege of honoring all three of these men who have loved me fiercely and taught me so much.
