Judaism, Unitarianism and the Golden Rule Judaism and Unitarianism share a commitment to justice, equality, and empathy, and the Golden Rule serves as a guiding principle in their teachings. It encourages individuals to cultivate empathy, promote peace, and build harmonious communities by fostering a spirit of compassion, understanding, and love for one another. How have you practiced the Golden Rule today? Share with us! Learn more about the golden rule: https://lnkd.in/dYyePJ4M #GoldenRule #uriglobal

We need to reimagine local church youth ministry - Here's something I wrote for the New Cranmer Society Reimagining Ministry conference. Some details will be specific to the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne; keen to hear what others think of the main message: "We need to reimagine the youth ministry role from someone employed part-time to work out how to fill two-hours on a Friday night with games and a short reflection to a congregational leader with specific expertise to promote and enable effective ministries to, with, and by young people" https://lnkd.in/gExFbvik

The Power of Dignity in Development and Innovation Dignity is more than just a moral concept—it’s central to both aid and development, as highlighted in the book Development with Dignity by Tom G. Palmer and Matt Warner. Research from the Overseas Development Institute emphasizes two key dimensions of dignity: dignity as respect and dignity as self-reliance. These aspects ensure that people are not just recipients but active participants in their own growth and empowerment. Historically, dignity was associated with wealth and power. In ancient Rome, it signified social status, while thinkers like Cicero tied it to rationality and Thomas Aquinas expanded it to personhood. Modern philosophers like John Locke and Kant redefined dignity to emphasize equal worth and individual rights, which became pivotal to the rise of liberalism, democracy, and shared prosperity—what is now called the Great Enrichment. Dignity isn't just a value; it’s a driving force behind innovation, enterprise, and democratic governance. It shapes how we view ourselves and how others see us, fostering a culture of respect, creativity, and self-determination. Let’s champion civic dignity—through governance, legal rights, and mutual respect—because dignity is key to unlocking development and widespread prosperity. 🌍 #Dignity #Development #Innovation #Leadership #HumanRights #Sustainability #Empowerment #CivicDignity #SharedProsperity
