Book Description
God bless the churches that hear the truth, obey the truth, and teach the truth to others! But there are some churches that seem to be competing with the world to see who can self-destruct first! Hoff, in his book, Put Meaning Into Your Moments calls them the New Age church. He defines their errors as corruption and shows how their leaders are like King Saul, who was afraid of the people and did what they demanded. Entertainment-oriented church programs are like new movies that attract people into a theater. After they've seen it a few times, they lose interest. Kids who were initially attracted by drums and amps are now losing interest in the church. Let's just say it, "Liberal Christianity does not last. It's a fraud!" The message of the cross of Jesus Christ has the power of God in it, and the New Age church isn't preaching it! They're just making stuff up. Hoff suggests the problem is with their view of the Bible as an inaccurate narrative of creation, sin, and self. To them, Jesus is a two-thousand-year-old senior who knows nothing about cell phones, so how could He know anything about people today. It would be hard to prove this, but people who used to attend church are, no doubt, still yearning for what they didn't find when they were there. The largest church in the world would be the reassembling of these precious souls. If you can imagine yourself overcoming the frustration that is currently stifling your effect on the world around you, then Put Meaning Into Your Moments is your kind of book.

The Authentic Leader
Author: Royce Sparks
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000092801
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Using clear and simple exercises adapted for leadership development from the world-renowned Meisner Technique, The Authentic Leader will help you discover first-hand what it means to build your authentic leadership skills in a clear, technical way. This book presents a version of the Meisner technique that has been thoughtfully modified for the purposes of leadership training. It aims to train leaders to be fully authentic in their responses in the most efficient way and to let their responses be filtered by their abilities to deeply interpret and thrive within the psychological realities of the circumstances they are entering, be it their own or other people’s. The exercises in this book teach that effective leadership skills are about getting the attention off of oneself and allowing for a type of interpersonal determinism to bring out a leader’s truthful responses. This text breaks open the conversation on leadership and business skills in a whole new way using an established, although largely unknown method in the business world that will help leaders engage in the values of great leadership and train their own abilities to have presence, be dynamic, be magnetic, and know how to read any situation and thrive within it. Whether you are green in your career or at the head of a nation, an aspiring leader or an educator looking to use this material, this work develops and nourishes powerful leadership in unconventional, effective, and dynamic ways.

Meaning in the Moment
Author: Amy F. Davis Abdallah
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493443127
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Life has its ups and downs, and it can feel like we're always in the middle of a transition. Whether it's a painful end or a joyful beginning--or even an uncertain middle--theologian and minister Amy Davis Abdallah has found something that helps: rituals. In Meaning in the Moment, she shows why we need rituals to help survive and even thrive through various seasons of life. Starting with the foundation that rituals are a core, and underexplored, part of Christian practice, Davis Abdallah draws from theology, psychology, and personal experiences in creating rituals for herself and others. She offers practical guidance for readers to create their own meaningful rituals, including three types requiring varying levels of planning and participation: right now, with friends, and at church. Readers will emerge with fresh ways to bring their faith to life for themselves, their families, and their church communities--and ready to experience the transformative power of rituals. The book includes a foreword by W. David O. Taylor.

Meaning in Life
Author: Joel Vos
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1137576693
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
This inspiring, insightful new text provides a practical guide to helping clients live a meaningful and satisfying life despite the challenges they may be facing. Divided into three parts, it starts by drawing on empirical research to demonstrate the effectiveness of meaning-oriented practice and reviews a large body of literature on meaning in a wide-range of psychological and philosophical approaches, translating this into specific recommendations for practitioners. It continues by exploring the basic skill set required for working effectively in this area – from how to assess clients' needs and address issues of meaning, to specific existential, phenomenological and mindfulness skills. Finally, it provides a step guide to applying the skills to clinical practice with the support of examples and case studies from a range of professions. In what is still an emerging area of practice, this text stands alone as a comprehensive source of reference for both students and practitioners across the full range of people professions.

But when Antsy finds herself lost (literally, this time), she discovers that however many doors open for her, leaving the Shop for good might not be as simple as it sounds.

The Moment of Clarity
Author: Christian Madsbjerg
Publisher: Harvard Business Review Press
ISBN: 1422191915
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Businesses need a new type of problem solving. Why? Because they are getting people wrong. Traditional problem-solving methods taught in business schools serve us well for some of the everyday challenges of business, but they tend to be ineffective with problems involving a high degree of uncertainty. Why? Because, more often than not, these tools are based on a flawed model of human behavior. And that flawed model is the invisible scaffolding that supports our surveys, our focus groups, our R&D, and much of our long-term strategic planning. In The Moment of Clarity, Christian Madsbjerg and Mikkel Rasmussen examine the business world’s assumptions about human behavior and show how these assumptions can lead businesses off track. But the authors chart a way forward. Using theories and tools from the human sciences—anthropology, sociology, philosophy, and psychology—The Moment of Clarity introduces a practical framework called sensemaking. Sensemaking’s nonlinear problem-solving approach gives executives a better way to understand business challenges involving shifts in human behavior. This new methodology, a fundamentally different way to think about strategy, is already taking off in Fortune 100 companies around the world. Through compelling case studies and their direct experience with LEGO, Samsung, Adidas, Coloplast, and Intel, Madsbjerg and Rasmussen will show you how to solve problems as diverse as setting company direction, driving growth, improving sales models, understanding the real culture of your organization, and finding your way in new markets. Over and over again, executives say the same thing after engaging in a process of sensemaking: “Now I see it . . .” This experience—the moment of clarity—has the potential to drive the entire strategic future of your company. Isn’t it time you and your firm started getting people right? Learn more about the innovation and strategy work of ReD Associates at: redassociates.com
