Freds devotional anthology is fun to read, and it inspires the reader to reflect a little deeper into how everyday life can teach profound spiritual lessons. Whether read as a daily devotional or as a biographical journey, it will inspire any reader. I recommend Hard Knocks and Consequences Too for any believer who desires to learn how to learn from experience.

Missionary Wilson Gauntt, MEd, professor at Global University Fred has a gift in assessing his lifepast and presentwith a candid approach to proving that God has a hand in everything and he does it with an enjoyable sense of humor and humility.

Download or read book A New Kind of Diversity written by Tim Elmore and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A New Kind of Diversity, bestselling author Tim Elmore brings his decades of research and leadership experience to bear on what might be the biggest, most dramatic, and most disruptive shift the American workforce has ever seen: the vast diversity of several generations living—and working—together. The past few years have brought an endless cascade of social media movements that left many of us . . . well . . . scratching our heads. Regardless of how we feel about the gaps between us, there is one we cannot avoid. One of the largest gaps remains an “elephant in the room.” We know it's there but we don't know how to talk about it. It's the different generations that find themselves working together. It's a generation gap. There is a new kind of diversity that only eight percent of U.S. companies even recognize: diverse generations on teams. Long laughed off as a cliché and more recently mocked in memes #HowToConfuseMillennials and #OKBoomer hashtags, the generational gap has become an undeniable tension in the global workplace. Sadly, it has fostered: Loneliness in our workplaces. Poor communication on our teams. Reduction in revenue and team morale. Conflicting values and priorities in the office. Divisions that lead to “walls” instead of “bridges.” For the first time in history, up to five generations find themselves working alongside each other in a typical company. The result? There can be division. Interactions between people from different generations can resemble a cross-cultural relationship. Both usually possess different values and customs. At times, each generation is literally speaking a different language! How can we hope to work together when we can't even understand each other? This book provides the tools to: Get the most out of the strengths of each age group on your team. Foster effective communication instead of isolation among people. Build bridges rather than walls so that loneliness becomes connectedness. Connect people to learn how both veterans and rookies can mentor each other.

Book excerpt: Public thinking about sexual assault over the last two decades has changed dramatically for the better.

Through her study of six rape crisis centers in Los Angeles, Nancy Matthews shows how the State has influenced rape crisis work by supporting the therapeutic aspects of the anti-rape movement's agenda, and pushing feminist rape crisis centers towards conventional frameworks of social service provision, while ignoring the feminist political agenda of transforming gender relations and preventing rape.

Download or read book The Night Sky written by Richard Grossinger and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since Homo sapiens first looked up at the stars, we as a species have been looking for meaning in the mysteries of the night sky. Over the millennia, as our knowledge, science, and technology developed, the stories we told ourselves about the universe and our place in it developed as well. In The Night Sky, Richard Grossinger traces those developments, covering multiple aspects of humanity's complex relationship to the cosmos. Covering not only astronomy but also cosmology, cosmogony, astrology, and science fiction, he offers us a revelatory look at the firmament through his own telescope, fitted with an anthropological lens. Throughout his explorations, Grossinger continually reflects on the deeper meaning of our changing concepts about the universe and creation, offering insight into how each new discovery causes us to redefine the values, moralities, and aesthetics by which we live. He also calls into question the self-aggrandizing notion that humanity can and will conquer all, and injects our strident confidence in science with a healthy dose of humility and wonder. Filled with poetic observation and profound questions, The Night Sky is a brilliant reflection of humanity's relationship with the cosmos--a relationship fed by longing, doubt, and awe.
