How can the wisdom of the past inform the future? In this episode, Gabe takes a closer look at what some have dismissed as the "old-fashioned" practices of the Amish community. In all our progress and modernity, he calls us to consider the lessons we can learn from the simplicity, resiliency, and sustainability of traditional Amish ways. Listen and think well about what it takes to build a life in which big innovations and technology don't disrupt or devalue the priorities of community and family.
