What is a Mennonite? Is it a culture? A style of dress? Foods that taste great but gives you bad breath? A style of worship? A language? What’s foundational? Here on the prairies where Russian Mennonites are ubiquitous, we often get side-tracked about what is foundational. We tend to talk about things that set us apart, focus on the institution, or talk about the church as if its ours. Paul reminded the Corinthian Church that Jesus Christ is foundational. A Mennonite is nothing more than a person who has received the gospel—the indiscriminate gift of grace that God in Christ has given everybody. A Mennonite not only confesses Jesus Christ as Lord, but follows and trusts in the Spirit of Jesus to guide him/her in daily life.
