Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw, named after the Greek mythological figure. In ancient Greek mythology, Pygmalion fell in love with one of his sculptures, which then came to life. The general idea of that myth was a popular subject for Victorian era British playwrights. Shaw's play has been adapted numerous times, most notably as the 1938 film Pygmalion, the 1956 musical My Fair Lady and its 1964 film version.

A modern English translation of the preface is also included as an appendix at the end of the book.

We live in a secular, skeptical, and cynical age. Americans have lost faith in its institutions - including the church. Although the vast majority of Christian leaders serve faithfully, examples of financial fraud, greed, sexual and emotional abuse, and other systemic problems are almost everyday occurrences. And a watching world has a right to ask even those who are faithful ministers of the Gospel: “If you knew this was happening, why didn’t you say something?”

In The Teaching of Jesus Concerning the Kingdom of God and the Church, Geerhardus Vos (1862-1949), Professor of Biblical Theology at Princeton Theological Seminary, describes the Messianic work of Jesus as the realization of Old Testament revelation. Vos says the kingdom of God was inaugurated by the resurrection and ascension of Jesus, but that it awaits consummation at the end of the world. Vos concludes that religion alone can act as the supreme unifying factor in the life of man, leading it to its final goal in the service of God.

J. Gresham Machen examines whether the Apostle Paul’s faith arose from borrowed religious ideas or from a genuine encounter with the risen Christ. Engaging with critical scholars and comparing Paul’s letters with the wider New Testament canon and extra-biblical texts, Machen shows that Paul’s faith and teaching were received, not invented. Paul’s theology cannot be explained as a blend of Judaism and paganism but must be understood as rooted in divine revelation.

There is an axiom to the expression that self-growth is extremely about self-acceptance not about self-improvement. This may at first appear somewhat of an inconsistency yet it isn't. If somebody can genuinely acknowledge themselves as they seem to be, not as they might suspect they ought to be, at that point they will feel a level of passionate well-being and security that will enable them to recuperate whatever it is that is blocking them and in this way change.

Decision Overload: Why Choosing Now Feels So HeavyBy Elias RowanChoosing today rarely feels dramatic. There is no crisis, no obvious conflict, no single decision that explains the fatigue. And yet, thinking feels heavier than it should. Decision Overload: Why Choosing Now Feels So Heavy explores a quieter form of mental strain—one that does not come from indecision, anxiety, or poor judgment, but from continuous exposure to choice itself. In modern life, decisions rarely end. Options remain visible. Plans stay adjustable.

For eight years, the tribes of Israel have withered under the "Double Wickedness" of Cushan-Rishathaim. The Promised Land has become a labor camp of limestone and salt, and the sons of the conquerors have become the property of an empire. Othniel ben Kenaz is a man of the shadows.
