Book Description
Worship in church can be very challenging, especially with young people. This book contains a range of services ideas designed especially for, but not only, young people. Many of those who lead worship in churches, schools, youth centres, etc, need to become very focussed on young people around Christmas time, but even when they think creatively, they have neither time nor the resources to implement their ideas. This book offers a wide 'off the peg' range of services/addresses for Advent and Christmas, through which we believe it possible to create a sense of wonder, awe and excitement. We hope that as worship leaders explore what follows, they will feel stimulated to dip into the contents offered and then create their own events and special services. As readers explore man's relationship with God, they will be led along paths that are as varied as the individual characteristics of those people. Each and every path leads to moments of personal discovery, and with these come satisfaction, great humour and joy. This book shares some of these awesome discoveries. The ideas that follow are an attempt to demonstrate how different congregations have explored the God/Man relationship and we hope the reader will be hugely stimulated and want to become creative in their own way; this is the main purpose for this book. The book is divided into 3 parts: Section 1 is an event which can fill the "Sermon Slot" in a family service or a school assembly whether it is a Eucharist or another form of worship. Section 2 is made up of a number of complete services, each of which stands in its own right. Section 3 contains some ideas for embellishing both Sections 1 & 2. These can also be used as standalone pieces or interwoven with other themes created by the reader.

Sharing Time With Our Wonderful Dogs

Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
A dog certainly is a wonderful friend to men and women. In my experience , all dogs are forever constant, loyal, obedient , consistent, and faithful. They will remain by your side through thick and thin, ever ready to defend you, comfort you, and love you. Indeed I have heard stories of dogs getting separated from their owners, but still waiting faithfully for years until the time comes when they can be re-united. There are tales of dogs getting lost, and then going through thick and thin to find their way home and get back to their owner. I say 'owner' though there really is some doubt as to whether the man owns the dog, or the dog owns the man. The best time to 'acquire' a dog is probably when it is at six to ten weeks old. At this point in time, it is a wrench for the dog to be separated from their 'mum', but very quickly a new bond forms with the new owner , and if the dog is given the time and love that all creatures need, the bond becomes life-long and unshakeable. I have owned eight dogs during my life time. Every one has been very special, with individual and different and endearing traits. It has been a joy to share their lives and their love , to help them discover the natural world, and to form an eternal bond. When the end of their life has come, each and every time............. the grief has been unbounded. .................. but the memories remain forever, and this little book is an attempt to share some of these precious occasions and moments that occurred and we enjoyed together.

Ask a Manager
Author: Alison Green
Publisher: Ballantine Books
ISBN: 0399181822
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together
