He is the Life
Mar 29, 2026 | By Yurim Jin MY ‘28
I used to have this obsession with the question of why. Why did God create Adam first, not Eve? If God so loves the world, why do so many die from hunger? Why do people commit murder without any guilt? I would go up to the pastor with a long list of things that didn’t make sense to me in the Bible and spend hours in his office (Now looking back, I’m amazed and grateful for his patience and love). I wanted to understand everything without even a hint of ambiguity.

The Call of Fellowship
Mar 27, 2026 | By Jack Ludwick GH ‘28
While the Lenten season is traditionally understood as a time of reflection, repentance, and reconciliation, this season also reveals a deeper grace - the universal call of Christian fellowship.
Keep Those Wedding Garments On
Mar 26, 2026 | By Colin Levine SY ‘28
On Tuesday nights, my friend and I go evangelizing in the heart of Yale’s Campus. We approach students and ask about their faith backgrounds before sharing about our own. You’d be surprised how kind and interested everyone is. A few months ago, at the end of one of these conversations, an Orthodox-raised student told us that while he thinks there’s probably something out there he’s not seeing, he just doesn’t have time to think about it right now. He said he would probably revisit the question when he was “50 or something.”
Help Me Believe
Mar 25, 2026 | By Jessica Jang UT Austin ‘27
“Cause Lord I believe, help me believe
Lord, I can see, but I still can’t see clearly
Lord, I believe, would you help me believe
'Cause I want it so bad
'Cause I want it so bad
'Cause I want it so bad.”
Catastrophe as Catastrophe
Mar 24, 2026 | By Julian Assele YDS ‘26
I never understood the necessity of hatred within the spiritual life until this past year. Growing up, I read the prophetical literature of the Old Testament and came away alienated from it. In the voice of God, Jeremiah and Isaiah prayed for the desecration of the Kingdom of Israel and the wrath of God to spare not a single soul from its consuming fire. The God of the prophets appeared distant, cruel, and unrelatable. But we Christians should not eschew hatred, because hatred for evil is how we know our love for the good.
