Crawling back to God
March 28, 2022 | By Valerie Pavilonis MC ‘22
When I realized this, I felt a cosmic shock. I have always been able to imagine God behind me, His hand on my shoulder. When I realized I felt an absence instead, another layer of panic, deeper and stronger than ever before, added itself to my existing anxieties.
The Return of the Prodigal Son
March 26, 2021 | By Barkotel Zemenu GH ‘24
During winter break, I was in a book group for first years at Yale Students for Christ (YSC). It was the only major YSC activity I was doing, yet it ended up being the most rewarding experience of my entire break. The book we read, The Return of the Prodigal Son, was based on Jesus’ famous parable.
