Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's so big about small groups? With proven results in drawing people into community and helping them grow to maturity in Christ, small groups have established themselves as a crucial ministry of the church to its members and its mission field. But whether leading a small group, coaching small group leaders or implementing a church wide ministry, you need vision, knowledge and skill to minister effectively through small groups. Jeffrey Arnold knows the pressures of small group ministry, but he has also seen the power of small groups in many ministry settings. In this revised edition of The Big Book on Small Groups, he breaks down small groups so that you can see them from all angles. The first four chapters focus on the structure and benefits of a small group ministry. Further chapters explore the basics of Christian community--prayer, worship, Bible study, outreach and mission, as well as how to multiply groups. Resources for further reading, ideas for coaches and trainers, and curriculum to photocopy for small group sessions are also included. A constant companion throughout your small group ministry, The Big Book on Small Groups will give you the basics to get you going--and the support and nurture you need to make small groups effective as a strategy for outreach and discipleship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Their gorgeous faces stare out at us from the glossy pages of magazines or appear larger-than-life on movie screens. With role models such as these, it's easy to find yourself wanting. During his 25-year career as a plastic surgeon, Dr. Robert M. Tornambe has worked with thousands of women and spent countless hours contemplating the nature of beauty - particularly in situations where he was asked to perform a procedure he believed would diminish his patient's natural good looks. In an attempt to provide as many options as possible, he focused on helping women understand that while surgery has its place, it isn't the only roadmap to looking and feeling great. This focus led Dr. Tornambe to devise The Beauty Quotient Formula - a much more useful way to look at beauty. While physical traits do play a role in beauty, Dr. Tornambe shows us that what makes any woman truly attractive is based largely on confidence, charisma, personality, and a solid beauty routine - and that more often than not, going under the knife isn't necessary. The Beauty Quotient Formula begins with a detailed quiz that helps you identify your strengths and weaknesses so you can work to enhance your intrinsic good qualities. Your answers to the quiz will point you toward specific parts of Dr. Tornambe's unique beauty regimen covering everything from firming your body, to improving your skin, to dealing with social anxiety, to perfecting your unique style.

Download or read book Ideaship 16pt Large Print Edition written by Jack Foster and published by . This book was released on 2010-05-07 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sequel to the bestselling How to Get Ideas (more than 40,000 copies sold) Introduces a revolutionary concept of leadership: a leader's most important tasks are to make employees believe that they are creative and make it fun to come to work Short, simple, and fun to read with dozens of proven, easy-to-implement techniques that will make employees more creative Innovative, original ideas are a company's most powerful competitive advantage. Nathan Mhyrvold, former chief technology officer at Microsoft, has said that a great employee is worth 1,000 times more than an average one simply because of his or her ideas. In Ideaship, the sequel to his bestselling book, How to Get Ideas, Jack Foster shifts from how individuals spark their new ideas to how to unleash the creative genius of an entire organization. To create an idea-prone workforce, Foster proposes a totally new concept of leadership: ''ideaship.'' Leaders shouldn't be spending their time obsessing over profits or sales or quality or service. Instead, they should devote most of their energies to making the office a place where creative ideas flow, where the workforce truly believes in its ability to brilliantly solve any problem put before it. Above all, where it's fun to work. With energy and humor, Foster draws on over thirty-five years as creative director of major advertising agencies-organizations whose only purpose is to constantly generate ideas-to offer dozens of fun, fast, often surprising nuggets of practical advice on how to create an environment where innovation and fresh thinking thrive. He reveals why you should only hire people you like, insist employees take vacations whether they want to or not, why efficiency is sometimes inefficient, and how sometimes you can accomplish more by playing the fool instead of the capital L ''Leader.'' Ideaship spells out proven ways to encourage creativity, simply and clearly and cogently, without a lot of charts and graphs and formulas and acronyms and statistics and fillers. It flips traditional leadership on its head and shows how simple acts of compassion, trust, and generosity of spirit, as well as some seemingly zany actions, can unleash unexpected, vital bursts of creativity.
