Alessia Cara lights up Chicago with ‘Love & Hyperbole’ tour
November 10, 2025 When Alessia Cara ran onstage at the packed House of Blues on Thursday night, the crowd burst into cheers. After six years, Cara is back on tour with her traditional four-piece band and “deliberately undressy attires.” Thursday she stood in the glow of the blue stage lights with the ease of someone returning to where she belongs. More than 1,500 people filled the venue’s floor and balconies, and the audience demographics were as varied as her songs.

Toward a Contemporary Confession of Good Medicine
Appears in Spring 2021 There is much to celebrate in the practice of contemporary medicine, from remarkable feats of technological progress, to solidifying a proven training process for disciplined competency, to inhabiting a locus of rare moral consensus in our society—that sick patients need care. And yet it is also true that our practice is beset by ills that it lacks the ability to define and has repeatedly failed to cure.
Medical education during COVID is more than a monolith
This pandemic has taught us that undergraduate medical education is nimbler and more adaptive than we have previously assumed it to be. COVID-19 has propelled medical schools into an online, remote learning age. It has beseeched educators to creatively deliver new means of teaching human anatomy, pathophysiology, and clinical skills. It has driven administrators around the world to revise graduation requirements to enable students to enter the workforce in times of health care worker shortages.
Chrétiens, Aplatissons la Courbe Mais Restons une "Religion pour les Malades"
Le mois passée, la couronne épineuse du COVID-19 a capté l'attention du monde entier. Il est rare de vivre un malaise mondial répandu à une telle échelle,un malaise pendant lequel nous nous retrouvons tous à vivre la même chose. D'une certaine manière, le bruit de la vie moderne a été évincé par ce que CS Lewis a appelé «le mégaphone de Dieu»: la douleur. Les patients meurent. Les gens ont peur.
أيها المسيحيّون، دعونا نُساهم في تسطيح المُنحنى، ولكن لِنبقَ "ديانة تهتم بالمرضى"
خلال الأسبوع الفائت ركّز العالم انتباهه إلى التاج ذي الأشواك البروتينية، فيروس كورونا المستجد (كوفيد١٩). ومن النادر أن يعيش المرء هذه الحالة من عدم الاستقرار العالمي، حيث نجد أنفسنا كبشر نفكّر في نفس الأمر في الوقت ذاته. بطريقةٍ ما فإن ضوضاء الحياة العصريّة قد تم استبدالها بما سمّاه سي. إس. لويس "بوق الله" ويعني بذلك، الألم.
Cosa Lutero Ci Insegna Sul Coronavirus
Dal suo epicentro a Wuhan, in Cina, lo scoppio dell’attuale coronavirus sta alimentando la paura e ha bloccato viaggi ed affari in tutto il globo. Più di 3200 persone sono morte solamente in Cina, e più di 561000 sono infettate in circa 170 paesi, superando così l’epidemia di SARS del 2003.
Cristianos, ‘Aplanemos la Curva’ Pero Sigamos Siendo una ‘Religión para los Enfermos’
[READ IN ENGLISH] Durante la semana pasada, el mundo ha prestado toda su atención a la corona con espinas de proteínas de COVID-19. Es raro experimentar una inquietud global tan extendida, en la que todos nos encontramos pensando en lo mismo. En cierto modo, el ruido de la vida moderna ha sido desplazado por lo que C. S. Lewis llamó el "megáfono de Dios": el dolor. Los pacientes están muriendo. La gente tiene miedo.
The Health Care Debate, Early Church Style
As Christians join the rest of the country in jousting over the proposed changes to our health care system, one significant fact should inform the Christian debate: modern health care is a Christian invention. The reasons Christians developed the world's first health care system—as opposed to simply medical practitioners—are as relevant today as they were 2,000 years ago.
Students Are Scrambling After Universities Close. We Can Help.
They're taking us out of the dorms on Friday. I have to try to pass my midterms while figuring out where my stuff is going to go. When Tommy Britt received a panicked text from a college senior on March 15, it hit close to home. His friend studies at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, where students have been asked to vacate and transition to online learning. Britt could relate. As a Carnegie Mellon PhD student, he is now teaching classes online.
Christians, Let’s Flatten the Curve But Remain a ‘Religion for the Sick’
Over the past week, the world has turned its full attention to the protein-thorned crown of COVID-19. It is rare to experience such a widespread global unease, in which we all find ourselves dwelling on the very same thing. In a way, the noise of modern life has been ousted by what C. S. Lewis called “God’s megaphone”: pain. Patients are dying. People are scared.
Ce Que Martin Luther Nous Enseigne à Propos du Coronavirus
Depuis son épicentre à Wuhan, en Chine, l’actuelle épidémie de coronavirus alimente la peur et perturbe les voyages et les affaires dans le monde entier. Plus de 3 200 personnes sont mortes du virus rien qu’en Chine, et plus de 168 000 sont infectées dans 120 pays—chiffres qui dépassent ceux de l’épidémie de SRAS de 2003.
전염병을 피하려 한다면 그것은 믿음 없는 행동일까? 마르틴 루터가 우리에게 주는 교훈
중국 우한에서 발원한 코로나바이러스가 전 세계를 공포에 몰아넣고 있다. 여행과 경제도 마비시키고 있다. 중국에서만 3,000명 이상이 사망했고, 전 세계 75개국 이상에서 95,000명 넘는 사람들이 감염되었다. 2003년 사스 전염병을 넘는 수치다. 중국의 중심부에 있는 교통의 요지라 미국의 시카고에 비견되는 도시인 우한의 시민들이 정부에 의해 봉쇄되었고, (1월 25일 시작된) 춘절 행사를 포함한 모든 대중 활동이 중지되었다. 우한과 중국 전역의 그리스도인들은 명절을 맞아 가족을 만나러 귀향하는 중국인들처럼 할 것인지, 중국 본토에서 피신할 것인지, 심지어 모여서 주일 예배를 드려야 할지 어려운 선택에 직면했다. 그런데, 사람들이 고통을 당하고 죽어가고 있을 때 예수를 따르는 사람들이 전염병을 피하려 한다면 그것은 믿음 없는 행동일까? 16세기에 독일의 그리스도인들이 신학자 마르틴 루터에게 바로 이런 질문을 했다. 1527년, 루터의 도시 비텐베르크와 주변 도시들에 다시 페스트가 찾아왔다.
¿Se Considera Fidelidad Huir de una Epidemia? Lo que Martín Lutero nos Enseña Acerca del Coronavirus
Desde su epicentro en Wuhan, China, el reciente brote de coronavirus está generando pánico e interrumpiendo los viajes y el comercio alrededor del mundo. Al primero de marzo, más de 3,000 personas han muerto en China y más de 95,000 han sido infectados en 75 países, un número mayor al de la epidemia de SARS en marzo de 2003. Los ciudadanos en Wuhan, una ciudad principal en el centro de China, comparable a Chicago, se encuentran bajo un cierre de emergencia ordenado por el gobierno.
Estamos Sendo Fiéis ao Fugir de uma Epidemia? O que Martinho Lutero nos Ensina Sobre o Coronavírus
Do seu epicentro em Wuhan, na China, o atual surto de coronavírus está fomentando o medo e impactando viagens e negócios mundo afora. Somente na China 3,000 pessoas já morreram e mais de 95.000 foram infectadas em cerca de 75 países — número maior que a epidemia de SARS em 2003.
逃離疫情是否忠於信仰？馬丁路德對冠狀病毒的教導
Image: Mallory Rentsch / Source Images: Betsy Joles / Stringer / Getty Images 以中國武漢為震源的冠狀病毒，已經引起了全球的恐懼，並阻斷了交通和經濟。光在中國，已有2800余人喪生。全球60多個國家累計87000余人確診—這壹數字，已超過2003年的SARS疫情。武漢是中國壹大交通樞紐，與美國芝加哥地位類似。 如今武漢封城, 市民壹切活動暫停，包括春節的慶祝也壹並停止（1月25日）。中國的基督徒們，不論是武漢的還是其他城市的，都面臨著壹些抉擇，比如是否該回家探親，是否要逃離大陸，是否要聚集進行主日敬拜等。當病毒肆掠，疫情嚴重時，逃離疫情，遠離在痛苦中的感染者是否是忠於信仰的選擇呢？ 16世紀的德國基督徒問了神學家馬丁路德同樣的問題。 1527年，路德所在的維騰堡及周邊城市遭受了黑死病的侵襲。距離上壹次黑死病肆虐歐洲，造成歐洲人口總數壹半以上死亡還不到兩百年。談及普通人在傳染病中所承擔的責任，改教家路德在他的信件《人是否應逃離致死的瘟疫》中提出了他的意見。在現今疫情爆發的狀況下，他的建議尤其有針對性。...

What Martin Luther Teaches Us About Coronavirus
From its epicenter in Wuhan, China, the current coronavirus outbreak is stoking fear and disrupting travel and business across the globe. More than 150 people have died from the virus in China alone, and more than 8,000 are infected across 20 countries—exceeding the SARS epidemic in 2003.
