“God Loves You”

December 18, 2021 | By Hannah Turner, BK ‘24

“That’s funny,” my high school friend said when she heard the common Christian phrase thrown out in a conversation about racism. She had concluded the very opposite: God didn’t love her, if there even was a god.

Following Jesus from Cradle to College

By Bella Gamboa, JE ‘22. Bella is majoring in Humanities.

Although I decided in high school to honestly reckon with my faith, to determine that I would myself (not as my parents’ daughter or member of my youth group or baptized child) practice Christianity, I had a nagging sense that my decision was inevitable because of how growing up Christian has shaped me. Was my faith legitimate, or as legitimate as that of those who converted later in life?

Hope Is a Thing With Flesh

By Bradley Yam, SY ‘21. Bradley is majoring in Ethics, Politics & Economics.

This year I’m celebrating Easter all by myself in quarantine. It feels surreal to hear the sound of the hotel door latching irrevocably shut, knowing that it will stay shut for the next fourteen days. In here, it’s easy to hope. I could stream the Easter service from my local church, sing along with the songs and be satisfied with warm feelings and abstract ideas. This is the kind of hope of Dickinson’s “hope is a thing with feathers”, hope that whispers in the soul but asks nothing of you at all.

As much as I love Dickinson, that [hope] is too light and ethereal to stake action upon—only the shadow of the real thing.

Psalm 63

By Allen Lai ’20. Allen is a junior in Quincy House concentrating in Chemistry and Physics.

So too, today, we can look in the past at Christ’s death and resurrection, and remember the Lord in all of our ways, and seek him with all our heart. As we do so, he promises that he will make our paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6), and that we will find him (Jeremiah 29:13).

Reorienting

By Daniel Tokarz, MC ’20. Daniel is majoring in Mechanical Engineering.

Lent is a time for prayer and personal reflection, to observe the places in our lives, both big and small, where we have turned our backs to God. Through fasting and the giving up some of the personal indulgences we typically enjoy, we can train ourselves to be more reliant on his Bread of Life, so that we may fulfill his calling of reorienting ourselves towards the Lord our God and continuing our walk towards Heaven.
