What are you learning from life’s curriculum right now?
I am asking myself, in this moment of alarming and rapid change, “what is it that I need to be learning?”

Reflections from President Stoltzfus
The duty of delight
This year I am newly awake to the reality that Jesus was born in Palestine under the occupation of an empire. And yet, throughout the Gospel stories of the Nativity, in the face of empire, people seek the light. They sing, they dance, they seek out friends and visit each other, they boldly proclaim their faith, they worship and they have babies. The world is also delightful. Somehow, we have to hold all of this together.
