A WORKMAN THAT NEEDETH NOT TO BE ASHAMED
These chapters comprise the Freitas Lectures given by the author at Asbury Theological Seminary, Wilmore, Kentucky, during the fall of 1956. Building upon the exhortation of the Apostle Paul to Timothy, his "son" in the Christian ministry-"Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed" (II Timothy 2:15)-the author speaks out of his own experience as a pastor to those who are ministers or who are preparing themselves for the Christian ministry.
It is the author's conviction that in an age when society, in general, with its galaxy of problems and its multiplicity of needs demands skillful leaders and skilled workers, even more does the Christian Society require at its head and at its heart "workmen that need not to be ashamed." An irreverent, self-seeking society has caused the church to answer for enough indictments; let not the church itself add to this list by failing to provide for itself capable and consecrated "workmen." The contemporary age demands the church at its best. If the church is to be at its best, then those who lead and serve it must be "workmen who need not to be ashamed."
The aim of the book is utterly pragmatic. The author endeavors to point out some of the practical methods by which a minister may be "a workman that needeth not to be ashamed." After an opening chapter on "The Distinctiveness of the Minister's Task," the author proceeds to discuss such practical matters as the minister's care of the church, the continuing preparations of the minister, the minister's spiritual leadership of his people, the minister and Healing, and the minister in his relationship to the world. ---

Описание: In 1942, the Canadian government forced more than 21,000 Japanese Canadians from their homes in British Columbia. They were told to bring only one suitcase each and officials vowed to protect the rest. Instead, Japanese Canadians were dispossessed, all their belongings either stolen or sold. The definitive statement of a major national research partnership, Landscapes of Injustice reinterprets the internment of Japanese Canadians by focusing on the deliberate and permanent destruction of home through the act of dispossession. All forms of property were taken. Families lost heirlooms and everyday possessions. They lost decades of investment and labour. They lost opportunities, neighbourhoods, and communities; they lost retirements, livelihoods, and educations. When Japanese Canadians were finally released from internment in 1949, they had no homes to return to. Asking why and how these events came to pass and charting Japanese Canadians' diverse responses, this book details the implications and legacies of injustice perpetrated under the cover of national security. In Landscapes of Injustice the diverse descendants of dispossession work together to understand what happened. They find that dispossession is not a chapter that closes or a period that neatly ends. It leaves enduring legacies of benefit and harm, shame and silence, and resilience and activism.

Описание: Stories collected from a dozen women from across the country, Strange Times will open your eyes to a stripper's lives on the other side of the stage. For each thrill, there is shock. For each victory, there is shame. The unmatched adrenaline rush of thrilling a hundred strangers while dancing on stage has only been felt by those brave enough to risk their everything. I've opened my eyes, my mind and my legs. And we are proud. When my knees ache, when my back cracks, when my hips pop and when my lips stretch to reveal a secretive smile, these stories are only a few that exist among the thousands of women who would dare to tell the world what we are. We are women, we are heroes, we are "whores". We are strippers.

Описание:
When Santa Fe Institute scientists first started working on economics more than thirty years ago, many of their insights, approaches, and tools were considered beyond heterodox. These once-disparaged approaches included network economics, agents of limited rationality, and institutional evolution-all topics that are now increasingly considered mainstream. SFI continues to expand the boundary of our economic understanding by pioneering fields as diverse as collective intelligence and organizational scaling.
This volume, edited by W. Brian Arthur, Eric D. Beinhocker, and Allison Stanger, includes panel and talk transcripts from SFI's 2019 Applied Complexity Network Symposium, with newly written introductions and reflections. Representing both scholarly and practitioner perspectives, this book explores the history and frontiers of complexity economics in a broad-ranging, accessible manner.
