The handbook explains the nature of dialectical thinking, why it is important and how it can be developed in children and in adults. It concludes with a final chapter depicting a discussion among the authors, exploring the question "how could dialectical thinking be the antidote to dogma" Written by a group of international scholars, this comprehensive publication is an essential reference for researchers and graduate students in psychology and the social sciences, as well as scholars interested in integrating different perspectives and issues from a wide variety of disciplines.

Download or read book The Seeker s Guide to Faith written by J. Peter Baumgarten and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seeker’s Guide to Faith confronts and answers the thirteen principal arguments against God that are now advanced by modern secularist movement (sometimes called New Atheism) using the powerful insights and teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There are many books written to encourage faith for people who are experiencing doubts about God generally. However, this book is the only one of its kind by a Latter-day Saint author that directly and specifically challenges all the main arguments against faith in God that are now aggressively asserted by the belligerent modern secular movement. Its uniqueness is enhanced by the fact that the doctrines and teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are used whenever applicable to effectively answer the challenges raised by this movement. This author believes that the unique teachings and insights of the Church are better suited than those of any other faith for answering those challenges. Furthermore, the author’s professional and volunteer activities have afforded him the opportunity to know and work with people of nearly all religious backgrounds, in nearly all walks of life. Recent experiences have led him to examine the reasons many apparently intelligent people reject faith. His legal background and training have aided him in spotting and understanding the weaknesses and flaws of the logical underpinnings of atheism. His Gospel upbringing as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has helped him see through the fog of the dogma and arguments of atheism to the “More Excellent Way” afforded by the Gospel’s plan of happiness. He hopes The Seeker’s Guide to Faith will help others who stand at the crossroads of their doubts to find their faith in Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Download or read book Ten Women of the Bible Study Guide written by Max Lucado and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever feel like a second-class citizen in this world? Do you wonder how God could possibly use you to change lives? For women in Bible times, these weren't even questions they thought about. Being overlooked, marginalized, having your contributions discounted because you're a woman...it's just the way things were. In this 10-lesson workbook, Max Lucado tells some of his favorite accounts of women in Scripture and the remarkable way God broke down cultural barriers to use them in the unfolding of His story. You will discover... Sarah, the woman whom God promised would give birth to a nation, but who tried to rush things when God's promises didn't seem to be coming to pass. Rahab, a prostitute in the Canaanite city of Jericho, who would save herself and her family through her faith in the one true God of the Israelites. Abigail, a woman forced to play peacemaker by the barbaric behavior of her husband. Esther, a young queen whom God placed in the Persian court for “such a time as this” to prevent the genocide of the Jewish people. Mary, the young virgin pledged to Joseph, whom God would choose to give birth to Jesus, the promised Messiah who would save the world. The Samaritan Woman, who would meet this Messiah at a well one day. His words would forever after change her life. The Canaanite Woman, who made God smile with her wit and faith, and who received from Jesus an answer to her prayer. Mary of Bethany, a friend of Jesus who witnessed the resurrection of her brother, Lazarus, and then anointed Christ in anticipation of his death and resurrection. Mary Magdalene, who followed Jesus despite the injustice of a world that judged her for her past and said she would always be considered a failure. Sapphira, a woman in the early church who, along with her husband, made the unfortunate (and deadly) decision to lie to the Holy Spirit. These stories show us there is a God who sees us where we are and loves us for who we are. He is the one who hovers over all the pages of the Bible, shaping lives, rescuing hearts, healing sicknesses, raising what was dead to life, and passing out high callings to those who choose to follow him and have faith in him. Each lesson includes: 5 Daily in-depth Bible studies to help you explore the stories in Scripture Daily points to remember to help you summarize the key points Daily prayers to help you focus your thoughts and move into your quiet time Weekly memory verses to help you hide God's word in your heart Additional notes to help you lead a group through the study Ten Women of the Bible is a standalone workbook, ideal for both individual use and for study in a small-group setting.
