You may want to say on Sunday, “Where in the Bible shall we read from? Break out the hymns! Break out the Holy Songs!” Do not do this. This is not what you should do. Center your words on your knowledge of people; use real life resources and relate them to comparable passages in the Bible. Give an interesting sermon that compares personal experiences with the content of the Bible. Then the mind of that listener will be completely blown away. When he hears about his own experiences, he will like it. Do not attempt to do it by looking at books. Books come from people as well. You must know that people themselves are the original books. (46-284, 1971.8.17)

The heart of the Unification Church is the commitment to live for the sake of others, just as God lives for the sake of His creation. To become someone truly worthy of God’s love, you are encouraged to embrace sacrifice and endure hardships with a grateful heart, even when things are difficult or your physical needs are barely met. By staying patient, serving others selflessly, and prioritizing the world’s needs over your own, you protect yourself from negative influences and align your spirit with the universe. Ultimately, the goal is to keep giving and investing your love without keeping track of your sacrifices, trusting that this path of service and endurance is the true way to bring joy to God and create a better world.
