In Search of Perfect Friendship
February 1, 2023 | Yoska Guta TD ‘25
Contrary to popular belief, I don’t think our fallouts with others are due to the flaws of a select few individuals. Rather, this constant failure is due to a deep insufficiency that runs rampant within each of us. One that prevents us from being, and finding that whole and perfect friend that we all seek.
The Creator’s Commission
February 1, 2023 | Marcos Barrios ES ‘24
God didn't go after Adam and fix his work, editing the names Adam chose. Certainly, God would have chosen better, more beautiful, more meaningful names for the animals. But like a father hanging up the messy scrawl of their child's artwork on the fridge, God proudly displays the work of His image bearer.
Figs and the Labor of Love
March 20, 2022 | By Paul Georgoulis H‘22
I had a nice fresh fig the other day—fresh, not dried, which is always a treat for me. It reminded me a bit of a passage from the Gospel of Luke, wherein Jesus gives a parable about a barren fig tree. In the parable, a landowner tells his gardener to chop down a fig tree because it has yet to bear fruit. The gardener replies that he thinks that the owner should wait one more year, and allow him to water and fertilize the tree. If the tree still does not bear fruit next year, the gardener says, he will cut it down.
