I Was the Result of Abuse. God Gave Me Purpose and Helped Me Forgive My Biological Dad - Grant Bontrager

What would it be like to feel like your whole life was an accident? What if you didn’t know who you really were? Grant Bontrager always knew as a child that he was different. One day, the reality of just how different he really was crashed into his life. Born as the result of abuse, Grant tells how Christ redeemed his story by entering into the intense pain that came to Grant and his family through the circumstances of his life.

From the library — Week 3.

Most of you have never heard these. Frank Reed taught Developing as a Servant at Sharon Mennonite Bible Institute over a decade ago — forty-four lectures on servanthood, brokenness, healing, and the slow work of loving people well. We remastered the recordings for the internet.

"Agape love would burn its gas going around looking for people with flat tires to fix."

Start with Lecture 1: https://www.youtube.com/

Three weeks into May we are at 8% of our $60,000 goal. This is the week the campaign needs to turn. If the library matters to you, support the mission today: https://anabaptistperspectives.org/donate/

Is the World Actually Getting Better? - Jaran Miller & Marlin Sommers

It is common to hear people lament about how the world is getting worse and worse, and as we look at the news and what is happening around the world. Yet there are secular optimists who make a strong, data-driven case that in many ways the world is better than in the past. Marlin and Jaran engage with this idea and the concept of Christian optimism. They also look at how this interacts with historical events.
