How do we respond to the unexpected? When you think about your nation, your local communities, and your personal relationships, does change feel like a threat or an opportunity? Do you grasp for sources of security? In the letter to the Philippians, we are reminded that Jesus didn’t grasp, but overcame threats through humility – Jesus was “antifragile.” As we follow Jesus today, God is still able to make us into antifragile people of light.
