Mennonites through history have experienced a lot of upheaval and trauma. In five centuries, many can say that their family lines have called five distinct places their homeland.
I've been spending time closely reading "Healing Haunted Histories: A Settler Discipleship of Decolonization" by Elaine Enns and Ched Myers. Imagine if two theologians and faithful Mennonites decided to write a book about genealogy that is also about reparations. The combination is powerful, making use of the ancestor work so many of us become interested in in mid-life and turning it toward healing generational trauma.
