Download or read book How to Stay Saved in College written by Mathew Tamin and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2006-09 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going to college can be fun and exciting; however, we should not be too caught up with fun only to forget about God. College is a time of ministry and mission work. It is a time to minister to those who are lost and in need of the Savior. We live in a society that wants to take God out of the school system. Most of the schools that were founded upon Christian principles are now being used for secular purpose. It is our responsibility to stand up for Jesus Christ. The Spirit of the living God wants to use you to change your school. We have been silent for too long. It is time for this generation to let every college, high school, elementary school, vocational school and technical school know that Jesus Christ is ALIVE.

Download or read book College written by Andrew Delbanco and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-04-18 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strengths and failures of the American college, and why liberal education still matters As the commercialization of American higher education accelerates, more and more students are coming to college with the narrow aim of obtaining a preprofessional credential. The traditional four-year college experience—an exploratory time for students to discover their passions and test ideas and values with the help of teachers and peers—is in danger of becoming a thing of the past. In College, prominent cultural critic Andrew Delbanco offers a trenchant defense of such an education, and warns that it is becoming a privilege reserved for the relatively rich. In describing what a true college education should be, he demonstrates why making it available to as many young people as possible remains central to America's democratic promise. In a brisk and vivid historical narrative, Delbanco explains how the idea of college arose in the colonial period from the Puritan idea of the gathered church, how it struggled to survive in the nineteenth century in the shadow of the new research universities, and how, in the twentieth century, it slowly opened its doors to women, minorities, and students from low-income families. He describes the unique strengths of America’s colleges in our era of globalization and, while recognizing the growing centrality of science, technology, and vocational subjects in the curriculum, he mounts a vigorous defense of a broadly humanistic education for all. Acknowledging the serious financial, intellectual, and ethical challenges that all colleges face today, Delbanco considers what is at stake in the urgent effort to protect these venerable institutions for future generations.

Download or read book Keeping the University Free and Growing written by Herman Lee Donovan and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the fifteen years of Herman L. Donovan's presidency (1941-56), the University of Kentucky entered a new era of maturity as an educational institution. The period was characterized by many administrative crises, such as those arising from the flood of veteran students following World War II, the rapidly rising costs of maintenance and expansion, and the apathy or active opposition of many Kentuckians to the concept of a free and developing university. Nevertheless, during this same period tremendous advances, both in material assets and in the less tangible qualities of academic life, were made. Realizing that evaluation of his administration must wait for the perspective of future historians, Mr. Donovan has not undertaken a history of the University during his presidency. He has chosen, instead, to give his readers something which only he could give—an intimate view of the president's personal, day-to-day struggles during this crucial period of the University's history. Mr. Donovan's account of the problems and satisfactions of being a university president is humorous and sincere. His story will be of absorbing interest to college administrators who face similar problems, and to all friends of the University of Kentucky. In addition, President Donovan has included a valuable appendix of statistical material which will be useful to the historian of higher education, and he has compiled a reading list of works of special interest to the college administrator.

Download or read book The Holiness of God written by R.C. Sproul and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.

Book excerpt: The testimonies that you will read on the following pages are personal stories of courage, hope, faith and strength in the face of adversity. Some will make you cry, some will make you laugh and some will simply bring home the fact that God is. A Book of Triumphs and Impossibilities There is definitely a higher power up there in the heavens. My co-author Andreka Eberhart and I know this first hand because I was brought back from not being able to see at all, to being able to see; not being able to walk at all, to walking with confidence to being on the brink of certain death to doing things I once did before and sometimes better than before and Andreka's bout with MS had her brain ravished, where doctors gave her little chance of a complete recovery. We contribute all of our health and wealth and blessings to God Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. What is a testimony? The dictionary defines a testimony as a statement under oath, proof or evidence of something. My definition of a testimony is simply a lesson: a lesson in life, in truth and the knowledge of God and His promises. It is my hope that your faith will be strengthened and you will have greater hope, peace and joy by reading these testimonies and that you will discover beyond a shadow of a doubt that with God, all things are possible!
