February 24, 2025 by ESN Announce Leave a Comment

Watch our ESN Conversation with Meryl Herr When Work Hurts: Building Resilience When You're Beat Up or Burnt Out We might be discouraged, disillusioned, or devastated by our work.

If you've been beat up, burnt out, or brokenhearted by work, you're not alone. https://youtu.be/6JIrDqF__JU       … [Read more...] about ESN Conversation: When Work Hurts

Science Corner: Double Check, Please!

February 12, 2025 by Andy Walsh Leave a Comment

Content warning: discussion of substance use and overdoses "Find the differences between these two pictures" is a classic children's activity--and now a popular meme format from The Office. Maybe sometimes it is just something to the pass the time, but one can certainly imagine that it's good practice for focused attention and visual discernment, not to mention basics like counting and color recognition for the younger kiddos. Sometimes it can be a job for adults, too. Such was the nature of the task I was given a … [Read more...] about Science Corner: Double Check, Please!

Sacred Work of Scholarship

January 20, 2025 by Jamie Noyd Leave a Comment

How do you see your work as sacred? As set apart for God’s purposes?

One of the first steps on this journey is to see ourselves and our work as part of God’s sacred story revealing God’s truth, goodness, and beauty. Perhaps Paul’s image of Jesus shared with the Colossians helps you to see your work as part of this … [Read more...] about Sacred Work of Scholarship

Science Corner: Not All Vaccines are Created Equal

January 8, 2025 by Andy Walsh Leave a Comment

Dark energy, or the possible lack thereof, grabbed a lot of headlines at the end of the year. However, it sounds like rumors of its demise are probably premature. This is a pattern in science, especially science journalism and popular science. An alternative to the consensus, previously only known within its field, comes to wider attention and causes a stir.
