There is a Future
Author: Amy Bornman
Publisher: Paraclete Press
ISBN: 1640606149
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
Learning about the ancient Jewish tradition of midrash, a rabbinic form of textual interpretation that seeks and imagines answers to unanswerable questions, felt to Amy Bornman like a poetic invitation to re-engage with the Bible in a new way. There is a Future: A Year of Daily Midrash – an award-winner in the Paraclete Poetry Prize competition – grew from a yearlong project to read the Bible daily, and write daily midrashic poems in response to the readings—to honor the text by wondering about, and struggling with, it. By engaging particular passages of scripture across the Old and New Testaments directly, these poems imagine new dimensions of the text, and make vivid connections to the world as it is now and to the author’s own life—emerging at year’s end with new hope in a future that at times feels impossible, as the days pile on days and the text’s enduring questions continue to ring.

HIGH LEVEL MEN ONLY: Wisdom For The Men Looking To Reach The Highest Degrees Of Manhood

Pages : 208
Book Description
“Masculinity Is Not Something Given To You, But Something You Gain. And You Gain It By Winning Small Battles With Honor.” - Norman Mailer Today, a man's largest problem is frequently more significant than his struggle with himself and his daily worries. The largest struggle a man has in a culture that doesn't value manhood is the bitterness he feels for not being recognized and rewarded for all he does to support his wife, his family, and society as a whole. In today's society, males are taught that they must make self-sacrificing decisions and serve as the primary breadwinners for their wives and children. And that a man's happiness comes in second to that of his wife. How frequently do we hear someone say, "A happy wife, a happy life"? This is the wrong way to think; society needs strong men. In order for society to function effectively, it needs strong men who value and appreciate their responsibilities as family protectors and breadwinners. Because there is little value placed on making sure that a man is also taken care of when his only function in society is that of the giver, he ends up feeling empty and despondent. Men commit suicide three to four times more frequently than women do as a result of the disparity in importance between men and women. This problem is made worse by the fact that no one is concerned enough to make it national news. Because men are never recognized by society as essential or useful for anything other than what they can do for others, they are becoming exhausted, inadequate, and energetically deficient. Nonetheless, this implies that it is up to you as a man to realize your worth rather than depending on the outside world. And changing your perspective to one of prioritizing yourself, your objectives, and your desires over those of other people is the first step towards doing that. Don't let others make you feel bad for taking care of your own needs and spirit. You will be able to develop yourself into the most manly version of masculinity possible with the help of this knowledge and wisdom, which is uncommonly available in one location. You will also acquire the attitude necessary to become a true leader of yourself first, followed by your family. So let's travel together so that you can start to receive the respect you deserve. Everything begins with your thinking! Your body will take care of the rest once you train your mind with the proper wisdom. Keep your flame burning because a man's inner fire is the most valuable asset he may have! Let me now ignite your imagination! Here’s Just A Few Of The Lesson's You’ll Learn: • The 4 Stages Of Manhood • The Alchemy Of Manhood • Understanding The Power Of Masculine Energy • How To Vibrate With God Like Energy • The Only 2 Types Of Men In The World • A Man’s Mind Is His Womb • Why Self Confidence Is Pure Power • The Keys To The King Mindset • Why A Man’s Self Talk Is So Important • Rules To High Quality Manhood • Why You Must Always Protect Your Light • Why A Man Needs Wise Counsel • The Masculine Power Of The Word “No” And More......

Pages : 342
Book Description
“Once again, Jack Myers has his fingers on the pulse of the very latest. Myers has clearly done his homework, and the result is this superb book.” —Ken Burns, documentary filmmaker of The Roosevelts and The Civil War After being told all their lives to “be a man” and “man up,” men are now rejecting the macho stereotype and instead developing empathy, getting in touch with their emotions, and becoming more sensitive in their relationships. Women are gaining ground in business, culture, education, relationships, and politics as traditional male and female roles disappear. The Future of Men: Masculinity in the Twenty-First Century prepares men and women for this shift in gender norms. As the definition of a “real man” evolves, understanding the future of men in business, politics, sports, education, relationships, and parenting will be essential for men to maintain psychological well-being, strengthen their self-esteem and sexual self-confidence, and rewire their emotional lives. The Future of Men provides tools to help men, and especially younger men, recognize and embrace new behaviors that are required for health and happiness at work, at home, and in their relationships.

The Future of Man
Author: Teilhard de Chardin
Publisher: Image
ISBN: 0385510721
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
The Future of Man is a magnificent introduction to the thoughts and writings of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, one of the few figures in the history of the Catholic Church to achieve renown as both a scientist and a theologian. Trained as a paleontologist and ordained as a Jesuit priest, Teilhard de Chardin devoted himself to establishing the intimate, interdependent connection between science—particularly the theory of evolution—and the basic tenets of the Christian faith. At the center of his philosophy was the belief that the human species is evolving spiritually, progressing from a simple faith to higher and higher forms of consciousness, including a consciousness of God, and culminating in the ultimate understanding of humankind’s place and purpose in the universe. The Church, which would not condone his philosophical writings, refused to allow their publication during his lifetime. Written over a period of thirty years and presented here in chronological order, the essays cover the wide-ranging interests and inquiries that engaged Teilhard de Chardin throughout his life: intellectual and social evolution; the coming of ultra-humanity; the integral place of faith in God in the advancement of science; and the impact of scientific discoveries on traditional religious dogma. Less formal than The Phenomenon of Man and The Divine Milieu, Teilhard de Chardin’s most renowned works, The Future of Man offers a complete, fully accessible look at the genesis of ideas that continue to reverberate in both the scientific and the religious communities.

Hard Landings
Author: Cammie McGovern
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0525539069
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
A game-changing exploration of what the future holds for the first generation of mainstreamed neurodiverse kids that is coming of age. After sleepless nights, intensive research, and twenty-one years of raising a child, Ethan, with autism and intellectual disability, Cammie McGovern is approaching a distinct catch-22. Once Ethan turns twenty-two, he will fall off the "Disability Cliff." By aging out of the school system, he'll lose access to most social, educational, and vocational resources. The catch is this: These resources, limited as they may be, have trained Ethan in skills for jobs that don't exist and a life he can't have. Here, McGovern expands on her #1 New York Times piece, "Looking into the Future for a Child with Autism," a future that often appears grim, with statistics like an 85 percent unemployment rate for people with ID. McGovern spent a year traveling the country and looking at the options for work and housing--and to her surprise discovered reasons to be optimistic. She asks the tough questions: What should parents prioritize as they ready their children for adulthood? How do we redefine success for our children? How can we sustain a hopeful attitude while navigating one obstacle after another? As Ethan makes his way into the world, McGovern also looks into the hardest question of all: How can we ensure an independent future when we're gone? Hard Landings will serve as a renewed beacon of hope for parents who want to ensure the fullest life possible for their child's future.

Looking to the Future
Author: Derek Hodson
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9460914721
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
In advocating an action-oriented and issues-based curriculum, this book takes the position that a major, but shamefully neglected, goal of science and technology education is to equip students with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values to confront the complex and often ill-defined socioscientific issues they encounter in daily life as citizens in an increasingly technology-dominated world carefully, critically, confidently and responsibly. In outlining proposals for addressing socioscientific issues through a curriculum organized in terms of four increasingly sophisticated levels of consideration, the author adopts a highly critical and politicized stance towards the norms and values that underpin both scientific and technological development and contemporary scientific, engineering and medical practice, criticizes mainstream STS and STSE education for adopting a superficial, politically naïve and, hence, educationally ineffective approach to consideration of socioscientific issues, takes the view that environmental problems are social problems occasioned by the values that underpin the ways in which we choose to live, and urges teachers to encourage students to reach their own views through debate and argument about where they stand on major socioscientific issues, including the moral-ethical issues they often raise. More controversially, the author argues that if students are to become responsible and politically active citizens, the curriculum needs to provide opportunities for them to experience and learn from sociopolitical action. The relative merits of direct and indirect action are addressed, notions of learning about action, learning through action and learning from action are developed, and a case is made for compiling a user-friendly database reflecting on both successful and less successful action-oriented curriculum initiatives. Finally, the book considers some of the important teacher education issues raised by this radically new approach to teaching and learning science and technology. The book is intended primarily for teachers and student teachers of science, technology and environmental education, graduate students and researchers in education, teacher educators, curriculum developers and those responsible for educational policy. The author is Emeritus Professor of Science Education at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (University of Toronto), Adjunct Professor of Science Education at the University of Auckland and Visiting Professor of Science Education at the University of Hong Kong. His research interests include considerations in the history, philosophy and sociology of science and their implications for science and technology education, STSE education and the politicization of both students and teachers, science curriculum history, multicultural and antiracist education, and teacher education via action research.
