Download or read book Practice Resurrection written by Eugene H. Peterson and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no question that bringing men and women to new birth in Christ is essential. But, argues Eugene Peterson, isn t it obvious that growth in Christ is equally essential? Yet the American church does not treat Christian growth and character formation with equivalent urgency. We are generally uneasy with the quiet, obscure conditions in which growth takes place. Building maturity in Christ is too often relegated to footnote status in the text of our lives. / In Practice Resurrection Peterson brings the voice of Scripture especially Paul s letter to the Ephesians and the voice of the contemporary Christian congregation together in understanding what is involved in the practice of becoming mature growing up to the stature of Christ.

Download or read book Life On Air written by David Hendy and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-09-25 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio Four has been described as 'the greatest broadcasting channel in the world', the 'heartbeat of the BBC', a cultural icon of Britishness, and the voice of Middle England. Defined by its rich mix, encompassing everything from journalism and drama to comedy, quizzes, and short-stories. Many of its programmes - such as Today ,The Archers, Woman's Hour, The Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy, Gardeners' Question Time, and The Shipping Forecast - have been part of British life for decades. Others, less successful, have caused offence and prompted derision. Born as it was in the Swinging Sixties, Radio Four's central challenge has been to change with the times, while trying not to lose faith with those who see it as a standard-bearer for quality, authoritativeness, or simply 'old-fashioned' BBC values. In this first major behind-the-scenes account of the station's history, David Hendy - a former producer for Radio Four - draws on privileged access to the BBC's own archives and new interviews with key personnel to illuminate the arguments and controversies behind the creation of some of its most popular programmes. He reveals the station's struggle to justify itself in a television age, favouring clear branding and tightly-targeted audiences, with bitter disputes between the BBC and its fiercely loyal listeners. The story of these struggles is about more than the survival of one radio network: Radio Four has been a lightning rod for all sorts of wider social anxieties over the past forty years. A kaleidoscopic view of the changing nature of the BBC, the book provides a gripping insight into the very nature of British life and culture in the last decades of the twentieth century.
Download or read book My Legs Maybe Paralyzed But My Mind Isn t written by Rey Grandoit and published by Own Your Inspiration LLC. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes, life s circumstances just don t seem fair. It can appear that despite how much we dream, pray, and set goals, our plans still fail to manifest how we desire them to. If we're honest, it can even feel as though God has completely forgotten about us and doesn't t desire us to succeed. Moments like these can be frustrating. They cause us to feel hopelessness, self-pity, and doubt. However, in the midst of the many disappointments, trials, and tribulations life may present, there is one thing we can hold on to: Everything we endure has a purpose. God has a specific plan for our lives and according to His Word, He is committed to making sure that we are prosperous and successful in all that we were created to do. In the most tumultuous of times, we must remember to walk in the faith of what we know, rather than what we can see. Difficult times are not to break us down, but instead, God allows them so that we can learn more about ourselves and the purpose of our creation. It is in those moments that we learn the true importance of life. At the age of fourteen, Author Rey Grandoit was told that he would never walk again. With dreams of becoming an NBA basketball player, this wasn't exactly the news young Ray wanted to hear. Rey had plans to change the trajectory of his life and the lives of those closest to his heart. As a teenager, he often felt that there was no way he could achieve his goals in a wheelchair. In this riveting and life-changing story, Rey shares how his experience with learning how to adjust to his new lifestyle led him to understand his purpose, position, and duty to the Kingdom of God. My Legs May Be Paralyzed, but My Mind Isn t is a real-life story about the many lessons Rey learned along the way to becoming the entrepreneur, motivational speaker, and Kingdom impactor he is today. His success and accomplishments were not without sacrifice, however, Rey can now look back and realize that every moment was worth it. In this amazing read, you will be given a front-row seat to Rey s transition back to Christ and be encouraged in the fact that no matter what life has thrown your way, you can and will become everything God has designed you to be!

Download or read book Watching Paint Dry written by John Burbidge and published by Hphr. This book was released on 2012 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Burbidge has aimed his brush, roller, and spray gun at everything from ritzy mansions to trashy trailers. He's gone underground to paint sewage-treatment plants and risked death to paint factory ceilings. He has no doubt inhaled enough noxious dust and paint fumes to shorten his life. But he's not dead yet. And the captivating characters he has encountered along the way have more than offset the toils of painting for a living. Ex-cons, addicts, drifting college grads, even a guy with a hole in his head-that's your typical paint crew, bonded only by the fact that they're caught in a job society thinks is for simpletons. In Watching Paint Dry, John Burbidge scrapes beneath the surface of painting's reputation for monotony while intimately portraying the men and women who craft the backdrop to our civilization. "Informative, funny, and sometimes heartbreaking . . . this is a book you will want to recommend to everyone you know." --Sharon Barrett, Chicago Sun-Times book critic for 28 years
Download or read book The Significance Impulse written by Joshua Glasgow and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-10-11 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why should we strive to be important? Does it make our lives go better if we are especially significant? The Significance Impulse argues that the common impulse to seek exceptionally high levels of significance is misguided. Although many people strive to be extraordinarily significant, ultimately cosmic importance is out of reach for us. And though we do matter somewhat, it can be a liberating relief to take a more irreverent stance towards our lives and embrace our unimportance. This book is a testament to being ordinary.

Download or read book 40 Years of Experience with the National Market System NMS written by Robert A. Schwartz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975, the U.S. Securities Acts Amendments were enacted by Congress, which amongst other measures, officially mandated development of a National Market System (NMS). Since that time, the competitive map has been redrawn, technological changes have been huge and pervasive in scope, and the landscape is ever-changing. This book looks at the evolution of NMS and the factors that have influenced it since its development. Titled after the Baruch College Financial Markets Conference, 40 Years of Experience with the National Market System (NMS): Who Are the Winners and What Have We Learned, the book examines the following questions: What is liquidity and how is it best measured and provided? Has NMS-Induced competition delivered? What is technology’s challenge to regulators? Are fair and level playing fields a good regulatory goal? What is the buyside’s view? The Zicklin School of Business Financial Markets Series presents the insights emerging from a sequence of conferences hosted by the Zicklin School at Baruch College for industry professionals, regulators, and scholars. The transcripts from the conferences are edited for clarity, perspective and context; material and comments from subsequent interviews with the panelists and speakers are integrated for a complete thematic presentation. Each book is focused on a well delineated topic, but all deliver broader insights into the quality and efficiency of the U.S. equity markets and the dynamic forces changing them.

Download or read book The Struggle for Change written by M. F. Wideen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1994. The story of Hansel and Gretel is familiar to many people. Most believe that the witch was wicked. But has this issue ever been seriously challenged? In the Introduction to this book, Marvin Wideen describes the day he saw this well-known fairy story being taught and through it draws us along a path of education reform in Lakeview School, British Columbia, and shows how, by this process of reform, the school changed from within. He considers the ideology supporting educational change, what change means to those who undertake it, and how the experience relates to the larger social and political context. The book effectively demonstrates that change will always create anxiety; needs careful and sensitive implementation, and occurs in isolation or as a result of activity within a larger context.
