Growing Young
February 1, 2023 | Hannah Turner BK ‘24
And those of us who know the struggle of adulting know that time is a precious resource and we use money nearly every day. The difficulty is not in teaching responsibility or wisdom, but in the dangerous implications we make about a human being’s value. When we view ourselves, those around us, or children as failures for not reaching certain goals, we deny our inherent worth.
Prayer Thoughts on Holy Saturday
By Daniel Chabeda, ES ‘22. Daniel is majoring in Chemistry.
A lie that many young, vibrant, potential-filled people come to believe is that busyness is the maximization of effort. This is not true. An effective servant of God must pray, receive instruction, and do no more (yet certainly no less) than what God ordains. Zeal for God must be pursued on God's terms, by his ordaining in our lives. Without this discipline, we become like Martha, who chose to do a good thing by offering service to the Lord, but missed the better portion that Mary received by sitting at Jesus’ feet.
The Weight of Expectations
By Serena Puang, DC ‘22. Serena is majoring in Linguistics.
“Why is having a brain so important to you?” he asks.
“How else am I going to do my job well?”
“I believe you already have.”
