It might seem a bit absurd, given the dire situation of the nation and the greater world, to put out a journal themed around something so seemingly privileged. It is easy to think that wonder, in the sense of standing in awe of the beautiful, good, and enrapturing, is only afforded to those carefree with youth or leisure. Most others count it a luxury.
The Vicar
By Bella Gamboa, JE ‘22. Bella is majoring in Humanities.
He is quite the picture of unexamined and undisrupted routine — small habits and complacency define his days — and unengaged faith. And there are times when even those who are active in faith, unlike the Vicar, fall into complacency, in our daily lives and in our relationships with God.
