Book excerpt: This is a timely piece that raises important issues concerning our educational and moral obligations to the children of our nation..Issues that must be discussed and resolved if we are going to be a nation that can compete in a global society. I find this book inspiring and admire the passion of the authors. They have set forth challenges and resolutions that demand attention. This book is recommended for all who are serious about providing a quality education for all children regardless of race, social economic status, or circumstances of birth. -Norvella Carter, Ph. D Texas A & M University The authors have captured the essence of what is taking place in America's schools. The growth of violence and discipline in some of our schools are at epidemic proportion, particularly in some urban schools. This book has chronicled this problem and has developed creative, insightful thoughts on how to combat the issue and regain our schools and develop a safe and secure environment for learning. The authors have extensive experience in the area of working with students who are in alternative placement centers, which has given them unique insight on school violence and discipline. This is an experience that most researchers do not have. The authors have made it clear that the causes of school violence and discipline problems in our schools are not caused by just one entity, but all stakeholders; which included parents, teachers, principals, and the community. I totally endorse this book. The authors are obviously in tone with where the focus should be in dealing with school violence and discipline in our school. I think that this should be a required reading for all teachers. It will be for the graduate level classes that I teach. -Archie L. Blanson, Ph. D. Deputy Superintendent Aldine Independent School District The authors bare sobering statistics and share a candid perspective in creating dubious conclusions regarding the current effectiveness of today's adult leadership. From government decision making, to school personnel, and finally proceeding directly into the home, their candor causes the reader to contemplate their own personal role in establishing a healthy future for our country's youth. -John Pickelsimer Alternative High School Principal Finally, a close examination of the difficulties faced by educators today This book outlines the problems and obstacles of the 21st century classroom. A must read book for anyone who is a stakeholder in the education process.

Download or read book We Have Seen His Glory written by Ben Witherington and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-19 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We Have Seen His Glory sounds a clarion call to worship in light of the coming Kingdom. Ben Witherington here contends that Christian worship cannot be a matter of merely continuing ancient practices; instead, we must be preparing for worship in the Kingdom of God when it comes on earth. The eight chapters in this thought-provoking book each end with questions for reflection and discussion -- ideal fare for church study groups. "In this study I hope to tease some minds into active thought about what worship should look like if we really believe that God's Kingdom is coming. . . . It's time for us to explore a more biblical and Kingdom-oriented vision of worship." -- from the prelude
Download or read book Rushmore written by Kristi Irene McKim and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-05 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earning critical acclaim and commercial success upon its 1998 release, Rushmore-the sophomore film of American auteur Wes Anderson-quickly gained the status of a cult classic. A melancholic coming-of-age story wrapped in comedy drama, Rushmore focuses on the efforts of Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman)-a brazen and precocious fifteen-year-old-to find his way. Restless, energetic, struggling, and overcompensating for his insecurities, Max pursues a dizzying range of possible futures, leading him into the orbit of local steel magnate Herman Blume (Bill Murray), elementary school teacher Rosemary Cross (Olivia Williams), and a host of cooperative schoolmates who help him to stage lavish film-derivative plays. Kristi McKim's compelling study of the film argues that despite the film's titular call for haste and excess (rush/more), it challenges a drive toward perfectionism and celebrates the quiet connections that defy such passion and speed. After establishing Rushmore's history and reception, McKim closely reads Rushmore's energetic musical montages relative to slower moments that introduce tenderness and ambiguity, in a form subtler than Max's desire-built drive or genre-based plays. Her analysis offers an urgent corrective to what might be perceived as an endearing portrait of privilege that perpetuates a status quo power. Drawing out Rushmore's subtleties that soften, temper, ease, expand, and equalize the film's zeal, she reads the film with a generosity learned from the film itself.

Download or read book Unveiled written by Bert Lewis and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world that seeks to dictate the terms of His involvement, a correct view of God is critical. Unveiled is about taking God at His Word, and is both challenging and encouraging to us in our walk with Christ. It is challenging because of its direct appeal to have us consider where we are in our Christian walk, relative to where God would have us be. Unveiled is encouraging; in spite of the many ways in which we fall short of Gods glory, His grace remains. Unveiled brings us back to a God-centered focus. Plain-spoken and practical, Unveiled benefits anyone at any level of spiritual maturity. Spiritual growth occurs day by day as we encounter God. With devotions, combined with prayers and Scripture readings, Unveiled helps you in that encounter. By Gods grace, your faith will grow, your life will be changed, but most importantly, our God will be glorified. Unveiled is one of the most unique devotionals I have seen. The reader is stimulated to read Gods Word and to contemplate complex issues. It is a great tool for growing in the faith and knowing God more intimately. I find it to be a user-friendly devotional with practical concepts for dealing with everyday challenges. Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, executive vice president, Family Research Council and author of Never Surrender: A Soldiers Journey to the Crossroads of Faith and Freedom
Download or read book One God One Lord written by Larry W. Hurtado and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Larry Hurtado's One God, One Lord has been described as 'one of the most important and provocative Christologies of all time' (Alan F. Segal). The book has taken its place among works on Jesus as one consistently cited, consistently read, and consistently examined in scholarly discourse. Hurtado examines the early cultic devotion to Jesus through a range of Jewish sources. Hurtado outlines an early 'high' Christological theology, showing how the Christ of faith emerges from monotheistic Judaism. The book has already found a home on the shelves of many in its two previous editions. In this new Cornerstones edition Hurtado provides a substantial epilogue of some twenty-thousand words, which brings this ground-breaking work to the fore once more, in a format accessible to scholars and students alike.
