Download or read book Cognitive Spiritual Development written by Lonnie Jones and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The master was telling the young priests a story. "The cruel men put the beautiful fire lizard into the flames. It was burned but not destroyed..." A boy interrupted. "Was the fire lizard ugly now?"The sage answered, "I do not know how the fire lizard saw himself."Many never see ourselves as we truly ought to be seen. In 35 years of working with churches and in counseling, the broken, the hurting, the unworthy have appeared. These are not the unsaved seeking salvation but the saved who have been enslaved by allowing the criteria of beauty, success, worth or even faithfulness to be applied to them rather than being able to see themselves through the Christ lens. If you've ever wondered about your spiritual beauty after you've escaped the fire please take the time to read this little essay and see how God defines our worth.
Download or read book The Relationships Among Cognitive Spiritual and Wisdom Development in Adults written by Mary Clare Smith and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored whether (1) adult cognitive development correlates with spiritual development, (2) wisdom development mediates the relationship, and (3) age, gender, education level, socioeconomic status, or religious denomination are associated with level of cognitive, wisdom, or spiritual development. University students and alumni (N = 134) completed a demographic questionnaire, the Model of Hierarchical Complexity Helper-Person Problem (Commons & Pekkar, 2004), the Spiritual Assessment Inventory (Hall & Edwards, 1996, 2002), and the Self-Assessed Wisdom Scale (Webster, 2003). This study hypothesized that wisdom, understood to derive from both personality qualities and life experience, mediates the influence of cognitive development on spiritual. This research hoped to provide empirical support for understanding the direction and degree of influence of cognitive, wisdom, and spiritual development. Using structural equation modeling, spiritual development was measured only as awareness of God. Cognitive development correlated significantly with spiritual awareness with moderate effect size. An inverse relationship was found between wisdom development and spiritual awareness. Wisdom development did not mediate the impact of cognitive development on spiritual awareness. Gender, age, education level, socioeconomic status, and religious affiliation were not associated with cognitive, wisdom, or spiritual development.

The second section covers evidence about links of child and parental RS to children's psychosocial adjustment, and highlights the need for more research that discriminates specific positive and negative manifestations of RS for children's development. The third section summarizes evidence about the robust influence of parents on their children's RS development and parents' perceptions of their role in this process. The fourth section focuses on cognitive-developmental research on children's cognitions about God/deities and prayer. The Element concludes with a synopsis of key themes and challenges that researchers face to advance the science of children's RS development.
Download or read book Higher Order Thinking Skills for Spiritual Abundance written by Jeanette McKenzie and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2002-10-14 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a fresh and practical up to date look at the basic foundations of Christianity, and correlates them to Bloom's Taxonomy of cognitive brain development, for spiritual abundance. This taxonomy, also known as Higher Order Thinking Skills, classifies the levels of intellectual behavior in the cognitive domain that are necessary for learning. These levels are widely used by classroom teachers all over the United States. In this book Bloom's 6 levels of Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation are correlated to the Christian foundations of; Knowing the word, Comprehending the Holy Spirit, Applying Obedience to the Word, Analyzing Self through Prayer, Synthesizing through Faith, and Evaluating Character known as the Fruit of the Spirit. The 6 levels of the taxonomy, when used correctly, raise one's thinking to a higher level of knowledge, depth, and understanding in a hierarchical fashion. This process, when followed, ensures that spiritual growth will take place, thereby, increasing the blessings of God into your life.

Download or read book Changing your Mind written by Victor Copan and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes you on a journey that unpacks and demystifies what spiritual growth is and how it unfolds. The aim is to set you on your own path toward genuine, personal spiritual transformation. The book provides all the tools you need - biblical, scientific, and practical - so that you can develop your own pathway for spiritual growth. What is unique about Victor Copan's approach to spiritual growth is that he explores recent findings of brain research as well as scientific research on habitformation and brings them into conversation with the process of spiritual formation. Research on the brain and on habit formation has uncovered significant insights about the process and dynamics of human transformation that can be fruitfully incorporated into our own pursuit of spiritual transformation. Tapping into this research allows us to work in concert with how God designed humans to function - body, soul, and spirit.

Download or read book A Person Centered Approach to Psychospiritual Maturation written by Jared D. Kass and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the need for maturational growth in undergraduate and entry-level graduate students as a foundation for professional and civic development. It presents an engaged learning curriculum for higher education, Know Your Self, which strengthens psychological resilience and interpersonal community-building skills through person-centered growth in five dimensions of self: bio-behavioral, cognitive-sociocultural, social-emotional, existential-spiritual, and resilient worldview formation. This growth promotes well-being and a positive campus culture, preparing students to build cultures of health, social justice, and peace in the social systems where they will work and live. This project emerged from Kass’ professional work in humanistic psychology with Dr. Carl Rogers. Case studies and statistical data illustrate the formation of health-promoting, pro-social behaviors, culturally-inclusive community building, and secure existential attachment. This book will help faculty and student life professionals address the urgent need in young adults for person-centered psychospiritual maturation.
