It is impossible to live without tradition. How can we minimize the liabilities? How can we use tradition for our benefit? “The most destructive traditions that are there claim not to be traditions. Our job is many times to excavate a little bit behind and say, ‘Well, there is actually continuity here. This is a tradition too: here are the strengths, here are the liabilities.” This is the final episode of a three-part series with Kyle Stoltzfus about tradition and heritage.
