February 2024 Progress Report

After a hiatus, we published scores of new audio recordings and several videos in the last quarter of 2023. Among these, Amata Thomas’s discussion of Anabaptist education in Kenya and Anthony Hurst’s talk on teacher-generated problems drew the most interest.

We continue to be grateful for the bloggers who provide regular, thoughtful insights for our readers:

• Rosalie Beiler
• Arlene Birt
• Karen Birt
• Carolyn Martin
• Deana Swanson
