Life Together

Peter, Bernard, and Marianne respond to the Nashville Statement, discuss the challenge college students face in thinking for themselves, consider whether politics and religion should be discussed at the dinner table, and have a conversation about how the Beguines, Beghards, and other communal movements have inspired the Bruderhof (part of a continuing discussion of the document "Foundations of our Faith and Calling," the Bruderhof's public account of its faith and practice).
