What you've written here really resonates with me. This is one quote that stood out: <blockquote>The culture of my postmodern generation tells me to value community but this same generation searches for community that brings the most meaning to self. Africa tells me to value community but African community suffers at the hands of corrupt leaders who act in their own interest. Anabaptism tells me to live simply and with honesty but Mennonites today have yet to honestly face the reality of a cultural and global paradigm that is already silently informing future Mennonite generations.</blockquote> Thanks Hinke and welcome to YAR!
