Описание:
Eucharistic Participation deals with the importance of the Eucharist, and in the process challenges Protestants (and especially evangelicals) to treat the Eucharist more seriously than they sometimes do.
In particular, Boersma re-addresses the two issues of the Lord's Supper as sacrifice and as real presence. These were the two issues central to the Eucharistic debates of the Protestant Reformation. This booklet is written from an attitude of sympathy with the motivations and concerns of the Reformers. At the same time, it suggests that it is possible to get beyond the disagreements of the Reformation period. If we take seriously the notion of "participation"-the idea that in the Eucharistic celebration we share in Christ and in his work-we can affirm both "sacrificial" language and talk of "real presence"-while at the same time holding on to the all-sufficient and unique character of Christ's sacrifice.
Participation, so Boersma argues, reconfigures our understanding of both time and space. If past, present, and future coincide in and through Christ, this means that what we do today in the Eucharist can participate in the unique sacrifice of Christ without undermining it. And if heaven and earth are reunited in and through Christ, this means that the heavenly reality of Christ's body can become really present in the celebration of the Eucharist. Serious ecumenical dialogue requires, therefore, that Protestants do justice to the theology of participation as they try to come to grips with the disagreements between Rome and the Reformation.

Описание: Surveys of pastoral staff repeatedly show that senior or supervising pastors consistently rate their working relationships with their associate staff members higher than do the associate staff members. Satisfaction levels follow similar patterns. In many cases, supervisors are not aware of or attentive to the concerns of their staff, and yet, these staff members are critical to the success of the church. Supervising and Supporting Associate Staff is a research-based guide to the senior/associate staff relationship that is filled with real-life stories and practical advice to help readers negotiate their staff relationships successfully. The book focuses not only on the business mechanics of the supervisor/supervisee relationship, but also the full experiences of the associate staff, including emotional and spiritual needs. This helpful resource addresses congregations of all sizes across denominations and discusses a range or supervisor/supervisee relationship types.
Описание: It's often family members who write books about their experiences with Alzheimer's, mostly the children of Alzheimer's patients. They watch their parents suffer and then feel the urge to share their personal experiences with outsiders. It is true that outsiders often have no idea what happens behind the scenes. This book is different; the author himself suffers from mild cognitive impairment, a usual precursor to full blown dementia, caused by Alzheimer's disease. When the doctor told Jacques Boersma about the strong possibility that he would get the disease, pretty soon he asked himself the question: "How should I spend my time as long as my mind is still sharp?" When he told a former colleague about the results of a medical exam, the colleague said something which made a lasting impression: "you have struck gold here." It took a while for his words to sink in: "you should put your experiences on paper and share them." The book started as a series of columns in a regional daily newspaper. Given the positive and very personal feedback, Jacques Boersma decided to publish his stories and insights as a book. He promised himself that it would be a beautiful book, both in content and in form. That's why he approached a poet and an illustrator to participate. In addition to the columns, the book includes twelve beautiful poems by Berthe Zwama. These poems align surprisingly well with the feelings that the columns provoke. The illustrations were made by Joke Dijk-Boersma. The soft colors Joke chose for her special interpretation of the columns add an extra dimension to this beautiful book. The perceived gravity of dementia is partly dependent on the behavior of those around the patient. As long as dementia is a taboo, everyone suffers more than necessary. Transparency is essential and should be a two way street: Transparency from the patient to those around him or her and the other way around. A great deal needs to be done to increase quality of life, because there are still people who are ashamed of their disease and transparency is lacking. This book by Jacques Boersma makes a very clear case that you get "better" from transparency about your condition. The book starts out with a thorough description of the first stage of the disease that is easy to identify with, the feeling something is off, the diagnosis and the time immediately following the results. He compares the transparency he shows in the columns in the regional daily with "coming out of the closet." Jacques Boersma has appeared at many Alzheimer Caf meetings in the Netherlands to tell about his book or for an interview. The book has been praised by many visitors: "That's how transparent you should be, impressive, now I understand my mother better, it was an eye opener, I am afraid of the diagnosis, but the book has made it clear to me it is possible to have a good life, also after the diagnosis." What is excellent about the book is that it discreetly contributes greatly to knowledge and understanding of the disease dementia, it treats many aspects from the point of view of an actual experience expert. The book leaves a lasting impression and contributes greatly to the essential breaking of a taboo. The book is published by the "Cotton Wool in my Head" foundation; a private charitable foundation that supports the accumulation and sharing of personal experience of people with mild cognitive impairment and dementia. The foundation was started by the author to keep contributing to a better life for patients and better understanding for those helping and treating them.
