This collection, including chapters by an outstanding roster of contributors, creates a dialogue among two philosophers rarely discussed together - Benedict Spinoza and David Hume - and one who until recently was hardly discussed at all - Mary Shepherd.Naturalisms in Spinoza, Hume, and Shepherd confronts the traditional history of Modern philosophy that pitches “Continental Rationalists” against “British Empiricists”, with Benedict Spinoza on one side, David Hume on the other, and women philosophers - including Mary Shepherd - nowhere to be seen. This volume explores an alternative approach to the period, through the lens of “naturalisms”, which brings into focus the commonalities among these three philosophers. The contributors examine various naturalistic themes in their philosophies - particularly, in their methodologies, their ontologies, and their views about the human being and God. The specific topics explored include minds and bodies; mathematics and natural science; human beings and other animals; miracles; the passions and motivation; and the artificial virtues. A helpful introduction by the editors distinguishes the various naturalisms explored in the volume and explains the appeal of this approach to the history of Modern philosophy.Naturalisms in Spinoza, Hume, and Shepherd will be of great interest to students and researchers of seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth-century philosophy, and to those interested in the history of metaphysics, philosophy of religion and the history and philosophy of science.

Do Nothing shares a strong message of how to accomplish something greater for Jesus.Most religions proudly and regularly teach what their followers must do to reap spiritual rewards and climb the peaks of enlightenment. But then, there’s Jesus. Rather than tell His followers what they could do, Christ taught believers that they could “do nothing” apart from Him (John 15:5). Likewise, the Son of God insisted that He could “do nothing” apart from His Father in heaven (John 5:19). Unfortunately, this is a message that has been largely forgotten among even the most well-intentioned Christians and trendiest of churches. Maybe it’s a message that readers have never even heard.In Do Nothing, readers learn how to peacefully rest, better discern, and calmly walk forward in the completed work of Jesus. Finally, they can escape the burdensome mantras of today’s culture which indoctrinate everyone everywhere to work hard, hustle, earn it, make it happen, try harder, and do something. So much doing. Jesus offers a much easier way—in fact, He is the way. And He accomplishes everything He begins.
