Download or read book Religious Affiliation and Hiring Practice written by Marc Fawaz and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1976, Christ College (CC), located in Irvine, California, began offering degrees leading to positions in the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS). The college comprises only 1 of several departments within Concordia University Irvine (CUI). Meanwhile, CUI is part of the Concordia University System (CUS), a nationwide network of LCMS 2- and 4-year colleges.Transformation of CC into a diverse university has been accompanied by challenges. Although enrollment is up, costs have risen. And although stakeholders prefer to hire full-time faculty with ties to the LCMS, few qualified candidates fulfill this structure. These and other threats, coupled with the economic recession, could bring CUI to cessation.Therefore, the primary purpose of this qualitative historical case study was to examine the historic hiring practice at CUI and its effect on the university's growth. Another purpose was to point to leadership positions and leadership styles that may be best suited to implementing change at CUI and seeing that change through to fruition. Using purposeful sampling, the researcher selected the Irvine campus from the 10 campuses making up the CUS, as CUI is the only campus practicing the historical hiring policy limiting full-time faculty to LCMS members.The researcher examined historical data concerning hiring practices in the CUS and specifically at CUI. Primary and secondary data sources obtained from LCMS, CUS, and CUI were analyzed using a coding process to categorize data pertinent to the study's 6 research questions. The findings of this study point to the most viable scenario for making changes in hiring practices at CUI and for leading change. Specifically, they reveal no written policy at CUI prohibiting CUI from hiring non-LCMS full-time faculty. Findings also suggest that students' academic demands are not met and may be hindered by the current hiring practices at CUI. Finally, the researcher offers recommendations for change throughout the university : changes to CC, a new hiring policy for CUI, changes at CUI based on opinion polls, a method for changing the university culture, creation of a strategic planning process, a timeline for planning, and a long-range evaluation process.

Download or read book The Sicarii in Josephus s Judean War written by Mark Andrew Brighton and published by Society of Biblical Lit. This book was released on 2009 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive study of the Sicarii in Josephus's Judean War. Detailed rhetorical analyses are provided not only for the Masada narrative, where Josephus tells how the Sicarii famously committed suicide, but also for all other places in War where their activities are described or must be inferred from the context. The study shows how Josephus adopted the Sicarii in his narrative to develop and bring to a resolution several major themes in War. In a departure from the classical proposal that the Sicarii were an armed and fanatical off-shoot of the Zealots, this work concludes that from a historical perspective, "Sicarii" was a somewhat fluid term used to describe Jews of the Judean revolt who were associated with acts of violence against their own people for religious/political ends.
Download or read book One King One Soldier written by Alex Irvine and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2004-07-27 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story says that one day a Fisher King will rise to heal the land. In the 1950s, they’re still waiting. . . . “A captivating historical thriller, a great spine-tingling romp through history in search of the Holy Grail. Fans of The Da Vinci Code will love this!”—Kevin Baker, author of Dreamland and Paradise Alley At the turn of the twentieth century, a baseball player named George Gibson embarks upon a mystical journey to the Congo. His mission: to shepherd a powerful relic to its home in Abyssinia. But poet-turned-grail seeker Arthur Rimbaud is after what Gibson possesses—as others before him have been for millennia. A half century later, after receiving an honorable discharge from the Korean War, twenty-year-old Lance Porter vows to put his civilian life back together—which means heading to commie-infested Berkeley to see his high school sweetheart, Ellie. But after Lance gets cold feet, he encounters instead a drunk, gay poet named Jack Spicer, who spews crazy stories about Lance being the Fisher King. It appears that the bearing of the grail has been bequeathed to young Lance, much to his shock and disbelief. Can a legacy born in the deserts of Ethiopia truly be reemerging in the bohemian bars of New York City and San Francisco? And is a vet with a lost soul really worthy of its care? Alexander C. Irvine has breathed a refreshing burst of air into the Arthurian legend. In One King, One Soldier, ancient characters and Irvine’s pitch-perfect historical accuracy merge with a gritty, dark portrait of America in the cold-war ’50s. Here, three stories come brilliantly together in an edgy mix of baseball, imperialism, poetry, and grail mythology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do the arts in worship form individuals and communities? Every choice of art in worship opens up and closes down possibilities for the formation of our humanity. Every practice of music, every decision about language, every use of our bodies, every approach to visual media or church buildings forms our desires, shapes our imaginations, habituates our emotional instincts, and reconfigures our identity as Christians in contextually meaningful ways, generating thereby a sense of the triune God and of our place in the world. Glimpses of the New Creation argues that the arts form us in worship by bringing us into intentional and intensive participation in the aesthetic aspect of our humanity—that is, our physical, emotional, imaginative, and metaphorical capacities. In so doing they invite the people of God to be conformed to Christ and to participate in the praise of Christ and in the praise of creation, which by the Spirit’s power raises its peculiar voice to the Father in heaven, for the sake of the world that God so loves.
