Approaching the Great Tradition — Kyle Stoltzfus — Ep. 129

Does being human require tradition? What are examples of tradition in Scripture? Kyle Stoltzfus explains the necessity of tradition in Christianity.

“This is about benefiting from, appreciating, and participating in a cultural legacy larger than oneself. The central burden is that we are recipients of spiritual and moral wealth. We can respond in a variety of ways to this: indulgently, critically, or constructively.”

This is the second part of a three-part series with Kyle. Consider listening to episode 127 if you have not already.

This is the 129th episode of Anabaptist Perspectives, a podcast, blog, and YouTube channel that examines various aspects of conservative Anabaptist life and thought.

I was reminded of this great quote by Jonathan Sauder: "Tradition names a timeful dynamic, not a timeless holding pattern. The only way to truly conserve a tradition is to be nourished by its vitality and clothed in its versatility so that you can change and grow along with it."
