Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the course of our lives, we sign contracts for just about everything-car leases, home loans, credit cards. There is something powerful about signing our name to a commitment. It reflects our word, our honor, our willing obligation. In The Burning Heart Contract, Becky Tirabassi challenges us to commit to God more concretely by actu... more »ally constructing and signing a contract with Him for a "21-day challenge" that the author is convinced will set our hearts on fire and ignite a passion within us to live, love, work, explore and create on levels beyond our comprehension. Such an agreement can then be used as a living document that will continually guide us back to the most important commitment we ever made.

Download or read book Burning Hearts Transform Children written by Carol Schaeffer and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-09-08 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In February 1990 Fred Schaeffer heard an audible male voice state, "I want you to evangelize in Australia." He blurted, "Who?" The voice responded, "The Aborigines." Fred and his wife Carol responded to the call and learned from Australian missionaries that "Aboriginal people are the most neglected people on the face of the earth after 230+ years of oppression." From Massachusetts, they arrived in Sydney in 1996 and have built a US/Australian/Asian network of 13,000+ Prayer Partners and an Australian network of 128 Volunteer Evangelists who distribute Biblical resources in Aboriginal communities. Thousands have responded to God's saving grace, through combined action and prayer. "The Aboriginal people are starving for Jesus and His word!" Revival is rapidly spreading, but Australia is still a demonic stronghold. The worldwide church logistically needs a Christ like Australia to take Asia for Christ. Christianity is growing more rapidly amongst the Aborigines in Australia and Asia, especially in China, than in the rest of the population. The book presents a 12-year plan to evangelize Australia's coastal perimeter through the most accessible Aboriginal communities. A.C.T.S. vision of a reproducing, Christ like Australia, aided by a unified prayer evangelism network, supported by the world church, to conquer Asia for Christ by 2030 requires expansion in the A.C.T.S. organization, outreach, worldwide Action Prayer Network and budget in each of the next 12 years. Prior to founding A.C.T.S. in 1991 and permanently moving to Australia in 1996, Fred and Carol founded the Commonwealth of Massachusetts' first private business incubator, co-founded Salomon/North America, and helped create North American distribution companies for European sporting goods manufacturers such as Nordica, Puma and Fischer. Throughout the years, Fred and Carol amplified postgraduate education (MBA with distinction at the Kellogg School, Northwestern University and Tufts University, School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston) with studies at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, where they also served on the President's board from 1983 till 1996. The Schaeffers have also served on a regional board of Gideons International and have been trained by and or partnered with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, CRU (Campus Crusade for Christ), Bible Society-Australia, Wycliffe, and OMS International (One Mission Society). Fred and Carol continued their education at the Nazarene Theological College. Fred became an ordained elder of the Church of the Nazarene in 2000 and served as a pastor of multi-cultural churches in Enmore and Tweed Heads, N.S.W. In the past 25 years, well over 100 Christian Australian leaders have been assisted by A.C.T.S. to build a variety of fruitful enterprises and ministries. Since 2007, A.C.T.S. has used Fred and Carol's combined experience to direct the power of massive, united, action prayer and personal evangelism to build a rapidly reproducing network among 700+ Australian communities.

This book was released on 2003-11-21 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one can deny that our culture is opposed to Christian values, and the influences bombarding our children’s moral development can be deadly. But few parents and church leaders realize how critical it is to start developing a child’s biblical worldview from the very earliest years of life. The problem is complex: parents who themselves did not receive early spiritual training leave their children’s training to the church. Yet the church often focuses on older children—not realizing that a child’s moral development is set by the age of nine. The answer is for churches to recognize the need to come alongside parents to provide them biblical worldview training, parenting information, counseling, etc., that will equip them to help their children become the spiritually matuare Church of tomorrow. Profiles presented of churches who are effectively ministering to children and winning the war our enemy is waging against them\. Research orientated books on childhood spiritual development.

Download or read book Transforming Loss Into Beauty written by Marlé Hammond and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to this wide-ranging work of scholarship and analysis include mentors, colleagues, friends, and students of the late Magda al-Nowaihi, an outstanding scholar of Middle East studies whose diverse interests and energy inspired numerous colleagues. The book's first part is devoted to Arabic elegy, the subject of an unfinished work by al-Nowaihi from which this volume takes its title. Included here is a previously unpublished lecture on elegy delivered by al- Nowaihi herself. Other contributors examine this poetic form in both classical and modern contexts, from a number of angles, including the partial feminization of the genre, making this volume perhaps the most comprehensive resource on the Arabic elegy available in English. The book's second half features essays relating to al-Nowaihi's other research interests, especially the modern Arabic novel and its transgressive and marginalized status as literature. It deals with authors as varied as Tawfiq al-Hakim, Latifa al-Zayyat, Bensalem Himmich, and Sonallah Ibrahim. Broad in its scope and rigorous in its scholarship, this volume makes a fitting tribute to an inspiring scholar. Contributors: Roger Allen, Dina Amin, Michael Beard, Jonathan P. Decter, Alexander E. Elinson, Marlé Hammond, András Hámori, Mervat Hatem, Wolfhart Heinrichs, Richard Jacquemond, Lital Levy, Mara Naaman, Magda al-Nowaihi, Dana Sajdi, and Christopher Stone.

Download or read book Children Forsaken written by Steven Walker and published by Critical Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shocking reminder of the cruel history of childhood that has been largely hidden and forgotten. Children Forsaken provides a long, historical, overarching examination of the phenomenon of child abuse. In the UK battered child syndrome was 'discovered' in the 1960s, whilst child sexual abuse gained attention in the early 1980s. Subsequent enquiries, legislation and practice developments have focused narrowly on reacting to events giving the impression that child abuse is a recent problem. Yet the historical record provides a multitude of examples of the ritual slaughter, sexual and physical abuse of children continuing since Ancient times. This book place child abuse in the context of the way children and childhood have been understood throughout the ages, but also show that despite legal definitions, and children's rights laws, children and young people continue to suffer. This book enables practitioners and those training in the helping professions to gain a deeper understanding of how embedded in human society child abuse has been and still is. Practitioners need to perceive child abuse as a long-standing problem about children's status in the World, their legal and human rights, and that much work is still needed to ensure children's needs and safety are paramount. "This ambitious book paints an important and erudite picture of child abuse and social responses to it, bringing us up-to-date with a call for continued vigilance, compassion, and action." Professor Jonathan Parker, Bournemouth University
