Why the Amish Are Laughing All the Way to the Bank
Living by the Book
Life in the Amish community comes with a rulebook—literally. Known as the Ordnung, this essential text is a German word meaning “order” or “discipline,” and is the blueprint for how Amish people conduct themselves every day. Alongside the Bible, the Ordnung lays out clear dos and don’ts, covering everything from technology use to dress codes.
And this isn’t just a set of friendly guidelines; breaking a rule in the Ordnung often leads to consequences, reinforcing the community’s values. Interestingly, it even includes financial guidance, offering advice on how to manage earnings responsibly. The Ordnung keeps life structured and purposeful while helping to maintain the values that define Amish culture.
