Visions of Service

This book introduces students to five of the world's great religions--Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam--with a special emphasis on each religion's philosophy of service and call to serve. With excerpt regarding service and social responsibility from the sacred writings of each tradition, followed by questions for study and reflection, Visions of Service gives students a framework for considering the differences and commonalities among the religions on the subject of serving those in need and reflecting on their own experience of service.
