  Paganism is an umbrella of different religions and cultures. 
  Many modern and pre-Christian cultures, such as Druidism, 
  Wicca, Witchcraft, Celtic, and other nature-based polytheistic 
  religions, fall under this umbrella. 
  Paganism is an age-old religion that focuses on humanity. This 
  religion is active in the world today, in both less complex and more 
  complex cultures. The religion began in Egypt, Greece, Rome, and 
  Persia. Many of the neighboring countries also began to follow this 
  religion. After Christianity came into the picture, many people 
  living in cities stopped following pagan cultures. Only those in 
  rural areas continued to follow the Pagan cultures since many did 
  not conform to Christian practices.

  Why Buddhist Practice? Why...

  Jennings is both a Buddhist practitioner and a psychologist. Here she talks about when it’s appropriate to bring our psychological struggles to our Buddhist teacher and when it is appropriate to bring them to a therapist. 
  In general, Jennings says the differences between them are: “When you are working with a therapist or an analyst, there is a sense of very personal explorations. The lens is to go in close and look at the particularities of the way a patient has gone through their life with very particular parents, family system, and culture, etc. Buddhist teachers tend to zoom out, and explore suffering from a more universal lens. So, when their Western students come to them with particular personal problems, they’ll tend to respond from this universal perspective that these are all manifestations of the same tendencies we all have.” 
  She discusses how each has much to give and addresses the value of having a spiritual community where you can look for support and have conversations, as contrasted to the psycho-analytic process where it is a one-on-one and the support comes from a single individual in the form of the therapist.

  Virtues of Strength is a powerful and inspiring journey through the core traits that help us rise above adversity and keep going when life gets tough. This 3-in-1 volume focuses on three foundational virtues—Courage, Endurance, and Perseverance—each offering a lens through which to understand our inner power and resilience. 
  In the first section, Courage, readers explore the bravery required to face fears, confront injustice, and make difficult choices even in the face of uncertainty. It's not the absence of fear, but the willingness to act in spite of it that defines this virtue. 
  The second section, Endurance, dives into the strength to keep going under pressure—mentally, emotionally, and physically. Whether it's enduring pain, loss, or hardship, this virtue reminds us that we are capable of weathering life’s storms without giving up. 
  The final section, Perseverance, highlights the determination to pursue goals with consistent effort and hope, even when progress is slow or setbacks occur. It celebrates the long-haul spirit that turns dreams into achievements, and obstacles into stepping stones. 
  Rich with timeless wisdom and real-world examples, Virtues of Strength equips readers with the mindset and emotional fortitude to face life’s challenges head-on. This book is for anyone seeking to deepen their character, build resilience, and walk through difficulty with purpose and dignity.

  The wonder of Scripture is that everything points to Jesus Christ — especially the Names of God. Biblically, names are not merely titles we use to address someone; rather, they reveal and point to the character, nature, and attributes of the individual. When God shares one of His Names with us, it showcases who He is and declares the majesty of Christ. In this series, Nathan Johnson examines the Names of God, explains how they help us understand our God more fully, and how each Name ultimately leads us to stand in awe of the majesty of Christ. Come, and let us behold our God. 
  This is an Ellerslie Live Teaching Series from Nathan Johnson, recorded live in front of an audience. When you purchase this audiobook, it comes with an accompanying PDF of the message notes.
