This link will take you to the home page for the the University of Maine's Safe Campus Project. This project works with organizations throughout the university in order to promote a safe community for everyone. According to their website, they strive to reduce sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking by encouraging healthy and consensual relationships. They offer many good services free of charge, and although their mission is not religious, we think they're worthy of a mention here on our links page. Check them out!

This website is maintained by the American Bible Society through its Research Center for Scripture and Media. It allows the user to take an interactive look at the parable of the Good Samaritan, introducing all major characters. Note: some sections of the site require the use of the Macromedia Shockwave and the RealAudio plug-in from Real Networks, and a JAVA enabled browser. Even if you lack these components though, there are still video and sound clips to peruse. Check it out if you get a chance!
