A Word from Our Outpost, with Joseph and Crystal Gruber

The College Dorm // Episode 33


Listen Later

Wherein we discuss the role of the dorm in forming communities and humans, and how we might lean into such institutions to become holy.

Other than some Chesterton quotes and a Newman quote (which I now looked up. It is: "In a higher world it is otherwise, but here below to live is to change, and to be perfect is to have changed often" and is apparently from Newman's Development of Christian Doctrine and can be found here: http://www.newmanreader.org/works/development/index.html It's possible he says it elsewhere, as well, and having never read this particular work myself, I am not suggesting everyone needs to read it; I'm just letting you know the provenance of the quote), we don't reference very much outside our own experiences in and around dorms, as well as a booklet Joseph wrote up on the college campus. If you're interested in that booklet, just email us at [email protected], and we can send it along to you!
Speaking of references, if you've never read anything by Jean Vanier, he's awesome on talking about life in community-- this book is incredible: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0809133415/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i1
We definitely did not reference Jean Vanier at all in the podcast, which is a shame, since we were talking about him earlier over dinner. Feel free to make up for our lack by reading something by him sometime!
