  Willingness to Serve - Eagerly...

  The journey of service begins with an understanding that true giving is born from within. The heart of service is not about fulfilling obligations or performing tasks for recognition; it is an inner calling that drives us to connect with others in meaningful ways. This chapter invites us to reflect on how genuine service originates from a desire to alleviate suffering, share joy, and foster unity in our communities. It is an exploration of the transformative power of selflessness—a power that inspires us to step beyond our personal interests and contribute to the collective well-being. 
  At the center of this approach lies the belief that every human interaction is an opportunity for connection and healing. When we serve others, we engage in an act that goes beyond simple assistance; we offer empathy and understanding that can bridge divides and mend broken spirits. This process begins with a willingness to be vulnerable, to acknowledge our own limitations, and to reach out to those in need with humility and compassion. By doing so, we not only enrich the lives of others but also discover the latent potential within ourselves—a potential that grows with each act of kindness. 
  Embracing the heart of service means accepting that our actions, no matter how small, can spark significant change. Each moment of compassion, every instance of thoughtful help, builds a foundation of trust and mutual respect in our relationships. This mindset challenges the prevailing culture of self-interest by affirming that our shared humanity is what truly defines us. In recognizing the interconnectedness of all lives, we find that our service to others is also a form of service to ourselves. It nurtures our growth, strengthens our resolve, and deepens our understanding of what it means to be truly alive.

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
  These marvelous narratives may seem vastly fantastic to the modern mind, but to every shade of Christianity in those days, they were entirely credible. - from The Hymn of Jesus

One of the greatest thinkers on the origins of Christianity and a renowned expert on Gnostic and Hermetic literature presents, in this snug volume first published in 1907, the lost teachings of Jesus.

For those interested in mysticism, Gnosticism, and esoteric traditions.

  Endurance is the ability to persist despite difficulties, discomfort, or obstacles. It is the strength that keeps a person moving forward when challenges arise, whether in physical exertion, emotional struggles, or mental resilience. Unlike momentary bursts of effort, endurance is about sustained perseverance, the willingness to keep going even when progress is slow or the path ahead is uncertain. It is not just about surviving hardships but about continuing to push forward, adapting, and growing stronger in the process. 
  At its core, endurance is both a mental and physical quality. Physically, it enables athletes to push past fatigue, workers to maintain effort over long hours, and individuals to carry on through pain or exhaustion. Mentally, it is the resolve to withstand hardships, resist discouragement, and maintain focus even when the reward seems distant. While resilience is often associated with bouncing back from adversity, endurance is the ability to keep pressing forward despite obstacles. It requires patience, self-discipline, and an unwavering commitment to one’s goals.

  Natural Theology - A Biblical...

  David Haines

  Christians affirm that Scripture alone reveals truths about God which cannot be known by mere reason, such as the Trinity or the Gospel itself. But how do we account for Scripture's apparent talk of a knowledge of God possible solely from creation? Or for our own sense of the divine in nature? Or for the startling insights of ancient philosophers about the nature of God? The answer: natural theology. 
   
   
   
  Often misrepresented as a fruitless human attempt to comprehend God, natural theology has in fact been a significant part of Christian theology throughout history. It has shaped the Christian doctrine of God and provided a starting point for evangelizing non-Christians. In an age when theologians and missionaries alike are in need of stronger doctrinal foundations, it is a doctrine as vital as ever. 
   
   
   
  In this guide, David Haines first outlines the biblical basis for natural theology, suggesting that, if Scripture is correct, certain truths about God should be well attested by non-Christians. A thorough historical survey demonstrates that this is indeed the case, and that the Church has long made use of that which is revealed to reason in order to serve Christ, who is revealed to faith.
