Each chapter covers one of the seven strategic marketing steps and shows how Paul's ancient concepts apply to today's world. Bible study classes and discussion groups that are reviewing Paul's journeys will also benefit. Each chapter ends with questions for discussion and thought starters. In addition, there is information on how religions compete in the market place and a section giving some detail of life in the first century. "Larry Waltman has woven together a business model of church growth, along with his understanding of Paul and his approach to church planting. It is an interesting read that should generate a great deal of discussion." -- The Rev. Rod Buchanan, D. Min.

Download or read book No Shortcut to Success written by Matt Rhodes and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2021-12-28 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avoid "Get-Rich-Quick" Missions Strategies and Invest in Effective, Long-Term Ministry Trendy new missions strategies are a dime a dozen, promising missionaries monumental results in record time. These strategies report explosive movements of people turning to Christ, but their claims are often dubious and they do little to ensure the health of believers or churches that remain. How can churches and missionaries address the urgent need to reach unreached people without falling for quick fixes? In No Shortcut to Success, author and missionary Matt Rhodes implores Christians to stop chasing silver-bullet strategies and short-term missions, and instead embrace theologically robust and historically demonstrated methods of evangelism and discipleship—the same ones used by historic figures such as William Carey and Adoniram Judson. These great missionaries didn't rush evangelism; they spent time studying Scripture, mastering foreign languages, and building long-term relationships. Rhodes explains that modern missionaries' emphasis on minimal training and quick conversions can result in slipshod evangelism that harms the communities they intend to help. He also warns against underestimating the value of individual skill and effort—under the guise of "getting out of the Lord's way"—and empowers Christians with practical, biblical steps to proactively engage unreached groups. Biblical Ministry Advice: Examines the work of respected missionaries throughout history Encourages Professionalism in Missions: Rhodes teaches missionaries to invest in theological education, communication, and technical skills A Great Resource for Ministries: Includes specific advice for singles, parents, and other groups Insightful: Examines strengths and weaknesses of recent missionary movements

Download or read book Comparative Psychology and Educational Outcomes written by Joyce E. Butler and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparative Psychology and Educational Outcomes is designed to empower educators to lead with wisdom, strengthen their belief that all students can learn at high standards, and create a vision of excellence that becomes actionable, allowing us to be difference makers in the lives of all learners. The framework of the Logic Model creates a road map for how to analyse the effectiveness of our instruction. This model offers a systematic approach for determining the root cause analysis of an identified challenge, avoiding the pitfall of enacting a solution before we have named the challenge, thereby perpetuating inadequate learning outcomes. This text presents case studies to demonstrate how this analytic process can be used to examine and strengthen literacy and social intelligence skills, including the exploration of a variety of teaching and learning frameworks. This text builds a bridge between the research and a school’s identified challenge, allowing for systemic and systematic change that meets the needs of the identified challenge, guided by the experts in our field. Connecting evidence-based strategies with day-to-day practice, this book is aimed at educational leaders (principals, superintendents, special education directors, teachers) in their role as practitioners and those working toward their certifications in the university setting.
