This series contains sermons, essays, notebooks, and research Pease hand-wrote while a missionary in Cyprus. The sermons and sermon sketches deal with a specific passage from the Bible, such as Job 11:7 or Matthew 26:41. The essays give a glimpse into missionary life during Pease's time. The notes and research involve a more in-depth look at the Cyprus that Pease knew through handdrawn maps and other information on topics such as politics, education and physical geography.
