Thoughts on Progress and Charity Across a Century
A reflective piece muses on the brevity of human life, the pace of change from Minnesota’s early settlement to modern times, and asks what true progress means. It weighs advances in science, energy, and light against declines in contentment, sickness, and virtue, urging steadiness in Christian charity as the lasting measure of progress. The essay asks who will guide the century’s moral path as a new generation begins.
