Book Untamed  Shapevine

  • Author : Alan Hirsch
  • Publisher : Baker Books
  • Release : 2010-02-01
  • ISBN : 1441207511
  • Pages : 272 pages

Download or read book Untamed Shapevine written by Alan Hirsch and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discipleship is costly. Are we willing to critique and even challenge much we've been taught for the sake of the kingdom? For this is the radical nature of the discipleship to which Jesus calls us. He did not allow the outside culture to hold him captive; instead he established the kingdom of God and turned the world on its head. Jesus was untamed, and he calls his church to be the same. In this provocative and compelling book, internationally known missiologists Alan and Debra Hirsch overthrow culturized understandings of theology and culture, and cast a vision for a distinctly mission-shaped way of living the Christian life. Written for any Christian serious about issue of discipleship, Untamed covers such topics as church, humans as bearers of the image of God, family life, culture, and sexuality. Through it all they seek to answer the question, how are we to think and live day to day as followers of Jesus? Each chapter ends with suggested practices to help readers begin to live out the book's principles as well as questions for group discussion.

  • Release : 1988-04-12
  • ISBN : 0394758439
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book Cultural Literacy written by E.D. Hirsch, Jr. and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1988-04-12 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A must-read for parents and teachers, this major bestseller reveals how cultural literacy is the hidden key to effective education and presents 5000 facts that every literate American should know. In this forceful manifesto Professor E. D. Hirsch, Jr., argues that children in the United States are being deprived of the basic knowledge that would enable them to function in contemporary society. They lack cultural literacy: a grasp of background information that writers and speakers assume their audience already has. Even if a student has a basic competence in the English language, he or she has little chance of entering the American mainstream without knowing what a silicon chip is, or when the Civil War was fought. An important work that has engendered a nationwide debate on our educational standards, Cultural Literacy is a required reading for anyone concerned with our future as a literate nation.

Book Good and Cheap

    Book Details:
  • Author : Leanne Brown
  • Publisher : Workman Publishing Company
  • Release : 2015-07-14
  • ISBN : 0761184171
  • Pages : 208 pages

Download or read book Good and Cheap written by Leanne Brown and published by Workman Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A perfect and irresistible idea: A cookbook filled with delicious, healthful recipes created for everyone on a tight budget. While studying food policy as a master’s candidate at NYU, Leanne Brown asked a simple yet critical question: How well can a person eat on the $4 a day given by SNAP, the U.S. government’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program informally known as food stamps? The answer is surprisingly well: Broiled Tilapia with Lime, Spicy Pulled Pork, Green Chile and Cheddar Quesadillas, Vegetable Jambalaya, Beet and Chickpea Salad—even desserts like Coconut Chocolate Cookies and Peach Coffee Cake. In addition to creating nutritious recipes that maximize every ingredient and use economical cooking methods, Ms. Brown gives tips on shopping; on creating pantry basics; on mastering certain staples—pizza dough, flour tortillas—and saucy extras that make everything taste better, like spice oil and tzatziki; and how to make fundamentally smart, healthful food choices. The idea for Good and Cheap is already proving itself. The author launched a Kickstarter campaign to self-publish and fund the buy one/give one model. Hundreds of thousands of viewers watched her video and donated $145,000, and national media are paying attention. Even high-profile chefs and food writers have taken note—like Mark Bittman, who retweeted the link to the campaign; Francis Lam, who called it “Terrific!”; and Michael Pollan, who cited it as a “cool kickstarter.” In the same way that TOMS turned inexpensive, stylish shoes into a larger do-good movement, Good and Cheap is poised to become a cookbook that every food lover with a conscience will embrace.

Book Willie Mays

Download or read book Willie Mays written by James S. Hirsch and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-04-03 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “enormously entertaining and wide-ranging” (Seattle Times) authorized, definitive, New York Times bestselling biography of Willie Mays, the most complete baseball player of all time. Willie Mays is arguably the greatest player in baseball history, still revered for the passion he brought to the game. He began as a teenager in the Negro Leagues, became a cult hero in New York, and was the headliner in Major League Baseball’s bold expansion to California. He was a blend of power, speed, and stylistic bravado that enraptured fans for more than two decades. Now James Hirsch reveals the man behind the player. Mays was a transcendent figure who received standing ovations in enemy stadiums and who, during the turbulent civil rights era, urged understanding and reconciliation. More than his records, his legacy is defined by the pure joy that he brought to fans and the loving memories that have been passed to future generations so they might know the magic and beauty of the game. With meticulous research and drawing on interviews with Mays himself as well as with close friends, family, and teammates, Hirsch presents a brilliant portrait of one of America’s most significant cultural icons.

Book Lives of the Laureates  fifth edition

Download or read book Lives of the Laureates fifth edition written by William Breit and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2009-02-06 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autobiographical accounts by twenty-three Nobel laureates give a picture of the richness of contemporary economic thought and insights into the creative process. Lives of the Laureates offers readers an informal history of modern economic thought as told through autobiographical essays by twenty-three winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics. The essays not only provide unique insights into major economic ideas of our time but also shed light on the processes of intellectual discovery and creativity. This fifth edition adds five recent Nobel laureates to its list of contributors: Vernon L. Smith (2002), Clive W. J. Granger (2003), Edward C. Prescott (2004), Thomas C. Schelling (2005) and Edmund S. Phelps (2006). Also included is the editors' revised afterword, “Lessons from the Laureates.” Lives of the Laureates grows out of a continuing lecture series at Trinity University in San Antonio, which invites Nobelists from American universities to describe their evolution as economists in personal as well as technical terms. Each laureate achieves the goal of clarity without sacrificing inherently difficult content: Kenneth Arrow makes grasping the essentials of his “impossibility theorem” painless; Lawrence Klein clearly presents what goes into econometric “model building”; George Stigler masterfully describes his “information theory”; and so on. These lectures demonstrate the richness and diversity of contemporary economic thought. The reader will find that paths cross in unexpected ways—that disparate thinkers were often influenced by the same teachers—and that luck as well as hard work plays a role in the process of scientific discovery.

Download or read book The College Man s Cookbook written by George Hirsch and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The College Man's Cookbook has 100 easy recipes for College Men to prepare on a budget, in tiny kitchens with dull knives and microwaves, and distractions while earning a degree! Eating, not necessarily eating well, is such an integral part of college life but depending on fast food and buying processed food have become a bad habit. The College Man's Cookbook provides recipes for every meal, plus midnight snacks and what to make for the parents when they come for a visit - see the chapter called "Impress The 'Rents". Author George Hirsch, Jr. endured claustrophobic kitchens, temperamental ovens, rusty stovetop coils, and decrepit refrigerators during his college days and realized College Men could use some help in the kitchen so he wrote dozens of tips and gives advice from "Shopping Lists for the Pantry, Fridge & Freezer", "Find Your Inner Iron Chef", "Sharing the Fridge", "Storing Leftovers", "Make Food Your Business" and "Cooking is The New Golf". The cookbook will transform College Men into culinary ROCK STARS - there's nothing more fun (and cheap) than cooking to bring roommates and friends together for a little Fried Eggs & Chorizo Rice, Brutal Bruschetta, Ramen Noodle Renaissance, Bad-Ass Godfather Italian Sub, Greek Life Pasta Salad, Noodles with Peanut Sauce, Killer Meatballs in Killer Sauce, Grilled PB & J, Coconut Garlic Green Beans, Banana Splitsville (a great dessert after a breakup), and 90 other easy recipes. And since graduation is what college is all about, there is even a Diploma to post on the fridge once the recipes have been completed! Mastering the basics of cooking and baking will help the College Man survive AFTER graduation when he has to go out into the REAL world, where he will find that knowing how to maneuver his way around the kitchen is a HUGE social skill and fun, too!
