Download or read book Delivering the Word written by William John Lyons and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biblical texts have been used consistently in sermons throughout Christian history. Preachers have transformed the texts into an aural experience, using them to evangelize, educate, edify, exhort, or even terrify, their audiences. Sermons have enabled Scripture to be communicated to people from a wide range of social backgrounds. 'Delivering the Word' examines the power of preaching and its reception across two millennia of homilies: from St Paul, Origen, Chrysostom, Augustine and Hildegard of Bingen to Jonathan Edwards, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Aimee Semple McPherson, and Chris Brain. In its exploration of the impact of the sermon on the interpretation of Scripture, 'Delivering the Word' will be of interest to students of biblical and religious studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ambitious 15-year agenda known as the Sustainable Development Goals, adopted in 2015 by all members of the United Nations, contains a pledge that “no one will be left behind.” This book aims to translate that bold global commitment into an action-oriented mindset, focused on supporting specific people in specific places who are facing specific problems. In this volume, experts from Japan, the United States, Canada, and other countries address a range of challenges faced by people across the globe, including women and girls, smallholder farmers, migrants, and those living in extreme poverty. These are many of the people whose lives are at the heart of the aspirations embedded in the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. They are the people most in need of such essentials as health care, quality education, decent work, affordable energy, and a clean environment. This book is the result of a collaboration between the Japan International Cooperation Research Institute and the Global Economy and Development program at Brookings. It offers practical ideas for transforming “leave no one behind” from a slogan into effective actions which, if implemented, will make it possible to reach the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. In addition to policymakers in the field of sustainable development, this book will be of interest to academics, activists, and leaders of international organizations and civil society groups who work every day to promote inclusive economic and social progress.

This book was released on 2020-05-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The delivery of high quality and equitable care for both mothers and newborns is complex and requires efforts across many sectors. The United States spends more on childbirth than any other country in the world, yet outcomes are worse than other high-resource countries, and even worse for Black and Native American women. There are a variety of factors that influence childbirth, including social determinants such as income, educational levels, access to care, financing, transportation, structural racism and geographic variability in birth settings. It is important to reevaluate the United States' approach to maternal and newborn care through the lens of these factors across multiple disciplines. Birth Settings in America: Outcomes, Quality, Access, and Choice reviews and evaluates maternal and newborn care in the United States, the epidemiology of social and clinical risks in pregnancy and childbirth, birth settings research, and access to and choice of birth settings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Without his experience and wisdom, our bid would never have succeeded.” TONY BLAIR “Craig Reedie was a constant source of wisdom and advice throughout the extraordinarily complex business of delivering the Games.” SEBASTIAN COE • This year marks the 10th anniversary of the 2012 London Olympic Games • This book tells the story of how it happened - by the man at the very centre • Sir Craig Reedie provides a unique insight into the world behind world sports 27 July 2022 marks the tenth anniversary of the London 2012 Olympic Games. There is no better time to hear the full inside story: from the long and uncertain build-up to the 2005 London bid, to the phenomenal delivery of the Games themselves in July 2012, eruditely told by the man who masterminded it: Sir Craig Reedie. Delivering London’s Olympic Dream: A Long Life in Sport gives a fascinating insight not just into the Olympics but also provides reflections, humorously told, of Sir Craig’s life and how politics, business, and ambition—both personal and national—are inextricably connected in World Sports. Reedie—a former Badminton Doubles Champion—was instrumental in calling out and sanctioning the 2016 Russian doping scandal during his tenure as president of the World Anti-Doping Agency. He was of the view that the 2-year ban (reduced from 4 years) from competition was too lenient. As president of the International Badminton Federation, Reedie was responsible for elevating Badminton to an Olympic sport in 1985. In 1992 Reedie became chairman of the British Olympic Association. He joined the International Olympic Committee in 1994 and became President of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) in 2013.

Download or read book Delivering Doctor Amelia written by Dan Shapiro and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this probing, intensely personal memoir, the words “Physician, heal thyself” assume a fresh and moving urgency. "Explores wth startling depth and immediacy the question of who shall heal the fallen physician." —Elle “Voices are a soul’s signature,” says psychologist Dan Shapiro, who in his daily practice hears plenty of them. For all his expertise, he admits he’s still terrified that “someone will keep something from me, and when they tell me the truth, I’ll be useless.” Treating other physicians has become one of Shapiro’s specialties. When the obstetrician Amelia Sorvino seeks his help—distraught that her own medical error could have injured a patient’s baby—Shapiro finds his talents as counselor and healer pushed to their limits. Session by session, he works to discover the sources of Amelia’s anguish—for his own sake as much as hers: he’s familiar with the burden of a doctor’s guilt, and he has seen how loss and trauma, if unchecked, can echo from generation to generation in a family.
