Can There Be a Joyous Perfectionist?

December 18, 2023 | By Gavin S YDS ‘25

When envisioning the ideal life at Yale—a perfect record of crafting perfect papers, always offering perfect contributions in class, and developing perfect relationships and networking connections, with perfect moments sprinkled in between—we seek a perfection so incredible to stand out among the perfectionists. Yet, the question lingers: How does joy fit into this journey? How can failure be tolerated?

Good Walking Friends

December 11, 2023 | By Morgan Vannell MC ‘27

In the greatest of friendships, two come together in mutual pursuit of what it means to live out a life based on their shared love for God. Each helps the other along–at times leading and at times following, but always moving towards their mutual end.

By Means of Unrighteous Wealth

November 7, 2023 | By Yoska Guta TD ‘26

What Jesus defines as unrighteous wealth in this passage is simply that which moths and vermin destroy, and thieves break in and steal—the temporary treasures of this earth. Jesus, therefore, is calling us, as His ambassadors, to love those around us with our temporary possessions and wealth so that “when [these temporary treasures] fail, they [the friends we make] may receive [us] into the eternal dwellings” (ESV). Though it may not be obvious, in other words, Jesus is literally calling us to use our resources and wealth to build up the kingdom of God by generously loving and giving to those around us.

A Reason to Believe

October 23, 2023 | By David Woods TD ‘26

What does it mean for the logician to accept that they cannot condense every argument into a neat set of statements, parsing their predicate logic into digestible terms as they go? Or for the philosopher: what does it feel like to encounter a set of premises from which no a priori conclusion can be deduced? At a certain point, we, as individuals, have to acknowledge that not everything life throws at us will fit into a schema or heuristic we have for making sense of the world, and Christianity is no exception.

The Poverty of the Widow

March 30, 2022 | By Michael Kielstra H’22

I first heard the story of the widow’s oil in Sunday school. Found in 2 Kings 4:1-7, it’s an astounding, heartwarming story of divine grace: a widow, utterly helpless and heavily indebted, appeals to Elisha and is miraculously given enough oil to pay off her creditors. What Sunday school teachers tend to gloss over, however, is the depth not only of the widow’s hopelessness but also of the cruelty of her creditors and of the society in which she lives.

Against Bitterness

March 11, 2022 | By Jonathan Chan

Forty days. That’s the length of time Christ spent in the Judaean Desert, fasting and praying in solitude. In the accounts contained in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, the devil appears, bearing temptations that cut to the very heart of Jesus’ desires – to turn stones to bread to relieve His physical hunger, to summon angels to break His fall if He jumps from a cliff, and to worship the tempter in return for dominion over the kingdoms of the world.
