  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.

  The term evangelical is often poorly defined and frequently comes with cultural and political baggage. As the label has become more controversial, many Christians have begun to wonder if they should abandon it altogether.
  Michael Reeves argues from a global, scriptural, and historical perspective that, while it's not necessary to discard the label altogether, Christians must return to the root of the term—the evangel, or "gospel"—in order to understand what it truly means. He identifies the theology of evangelicalism and its essential doctrine—the Father's revelation in the Bible, the Son's redemption in the gospel, and the Spirit's regeneration of the heart—calling believers to stand with integrity as people of the gospel.

  Find guidance through the advent season with the mother of Jesus and central figure in the story of Christmas, Mary. At Christmastime we remember that an ordinary, young, poor, oppressed woman was chosen to play a significant and breakthrough role in the redemption of the world. It is no mistake that a woman gets to be a part of all this, and that her voice, her questions, her fears, and her actions matter.   Mary’s faith and her wisdom form an astonishing aspect of the story of how God became a person for the love of this world. And in our weary world that is waiting and longing for light, meaning, peace, and love, we can do as Mary did when she “treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.”

  The story of "Daniel in the Lions' Den" is found in the Book of Daniel chapter 6, in the Old Testament. It tells of Daniel, a devout Jew who served as an advisor to King Darius of Babylon. The other Government leaders were jealous of Daniel and wanted to remove him from his position in the Government, so they devised a plan, but to their dismay, they could find nothing against Daniel, except the way he prayed and worshipped his God, so they approached the King Darius to make a decree that no man could pray or petition any man or God, only the King himself for 30 days, the King was well pleased with the plan, yet he had no idea his own leaders were out to destroy Daniel, thru this decree, a man of Integrity and Wisdom, whom King Darius loved and respected. Once the decree was signed it must be carried out so was the law of the Medes and Persians. "So they had Daniel", for he would not compromise his relationship with his God, and he continued his customary prayer time 3 times a day contrary to the Kings Decree. Daniel was Faithful to His God, and God was Faithful to Daniel by delivering him from the lions. When Daniel was put into the Lions Den, God sent an Angel and shut the Lions mouth, God delivered Daniel for he was Faithful to His God, the God of Heaven and Earth.
