Описание: Investigating Vatican II is a collection of Fr. Jared Wicks’ recent articles on Vatican II, and presents the Second Vatican Council as an event to which theologians contributed in major ways and from which Catholic theology can gain enormous insights. Taken as a whole, the articles take the reader into the theological dynamics of Vatican II at key moments in the Council’s historical unfolding. Wicks promotes a contemporary re-reception of Vatican II’s theologically profound documents, especially as they featured God’s incarnate and saving Word, laid down principles of Catholic ecumenical engagement, and articulated the church’s turn to the modern world with a new “face” of respect and dedication to service.From the original motivations of Pope John XXIII in convoking the Council, Investigating Vatican II goes on to highlight the profound insights offered by theologians who served behind the scenes as Council experts. In its chapters, the book moves through the Council’s working periods, drawing on the published and non-published records, with attention to the Council’s dramas, crises, and breakthroughs. It brings to light the bases of Pope Francis’s call for synodality in a listening church, while highlighting Vatican II’s mandate to all of prayerful biblical reading, for fostering a vibrant “joy in the Gospel.”
Описание: Are you a current or emerging Christian leader who yearns to make a significant long-term difference? Do you sometimes wonder how to distinguish what is imperative from what is important? Are you a board member who wants your church or parachurch leadership team to become more intentional and on-target about doing the right things the right way? The Leader's SEEcret is a parable that explores and applies God's Word to today's world of leadership diversions. It delves underneath the surface issues of a leader's or manager's knowledge and skills. The Leader's SEEcret will help you discover, understand, and apply ten core features of one ancient principle. You will understand how to infuse the situations you face as a leader or manager with that timeless reality. And you will learn how you can inspire your staff to do so, too. Along the way, The Leader's SEEcret shows the failure and regret a leader causes when his or her current leadership priorities conflict with lifetime purposes. This story comes in a concise, get-to-the-point writing style, making it very helpful for individual or group study. One warning: The principle undergirding LeaderSlip is simple---but not necessarily easy. If you take the challenge, you will become a more effective leader and---perhaps even more crucial---you will protect yourself from eventual failure.

Описание: The Tortoise Usually Wins is a theological exploration of the theory of quiet leadership aimed at those who reluctantly accept the mantle of leadership, but who often make a significant difference.
The Second Vatican Council endorsed an engagement with the modern and secularized world through a renewed proclamation of the Gospel. John Paul II described this as the New Evangelization, and in 2010, Benedict XVI confirmed this priority by creating the Pontifical Council for Promoting the New Evangelization to 're-propose the perennial truth of the Gospel.' The New Evangelization was the subject of the Synod of Bishops in 2012 and in 2014 Pope Francis gave his reflections on the topic in Evangelii Gaudium.
The New Evangelization draws on material presented and discussed at the conference 'Vatican II, 50 Years On: The New Evangelization' organised by Leeds Trinity University on 26-29th June 2012. Part I traces the historical and theological links between the Council and the New Evangelization. Part II examines the renewed understanding of the Church as a result of the Council and the extent to which it is shaped by civilization. Part III analyzes the nature of the New Evangelization and its outworking in today's multifarious context of cultures, religions and societies. Part IV deals with the implementation of the New Evangelization by different communities and organizations and the issues this raises. In the Introduction and Conclusion, the editors reflect on the New Evangelization in the light of significant developments since 2012.

Описание:
Lynne Modranski has a passion to empower Church Leaders and inspire those striving to grow in Christ, because leaders growing in the likeness of the Almighty and small groups that develop Biblical Christians are essential to the Kingdom of God. These seventy-five short meditations were written with these important people in mind. Based on examples from real life and Lynne Modranski's aha moments, each inspirational reading uses scripture to help leaders focus on Christ and small groups redirect their attention after a day in the world.
These two to three-page devotionals remind us that we never stop growing. They ask questions like,
What if Martha and Thomas were more faithful than they get credit for?
Did even Moses play the blame game?
What would happen if I got everything I deserved?
Do you travel to Egypt without even knowing it?
How can you tie "The Three Little Pigs" into scripture?
The book is divided into four sections, Devotions for Church Leaders, Devotions for Small Groups, Devotions Inspired by Songs, and Devotions for Special Seasons; and includes an index to Scripture References. In addition to inspiring followers of Jesus, each message can easily be a sermon starter or springboard for discussion.
Описание: The Church of England has its own courts and its own laws, subject to the law of England. In the nineteenth century, as Professor Evans shows, its jurisdiction was rethought in a flurry of Parliamentary interest, press coverage and high-profile cases involving colourful clergy and laity and much social pressure.

Описание:
Discussions about leadership, even those centered on women, often overlook contributions made by Asian and Asian North American women. Now, Su Yon Pak and Jung Ha Kim share stories of Asian and Asian North American women who found their ways, sometimes circuitously, sometimes unexpectedly, into leadership roles.
Divided into three sections--"Remembering Wisdom," Unsettling Wisdom," and "Inciting Wisdom"--the book presents narratives of leadership experiences in the fields of social activism, parish ministry, teaching, U.S. Army chaplaincy, religious history, Christian denominational work, theology, nonprofit organization, theological social ethics, clinical spiritual care education in healthcare systems, and community organizing.
Leading Wisdom challenges conventional understanding through its creative reimagining of what it means to lead.

Описание:
Are evangelicals focusing on the true worship of Christ and his message through the Holy Spirit or are they politicizing Christianity?
In this sober and well-reasoned examination of the American Evangelical movement's shift toward partisan politics, Michael Antonacci calls us to stop the politicization of Christianity.
Calling upon his own life experiences, he examines how the current generation of evangelical leaders have harmed the true church by their partisan political endorsements. This has contributed to a dilution of Christ's messages and a growing exodus of the younger generation from the church.
Michael Antonacci challenges stereotypes around evangelical Christians and gives new leaders suggestions on how to pivot away from politicized Christianity.
According to Mr. Antonacci, the church's spiritual message of love and forgiveness and the power of the Holy Spirit and Jesus should be paramount. While evangelicals do have to sometimes speak on political matters, he advises that instead of siding only with one political party and being known as the Religious Right, we need to be known as Christian Independents.
"God's work is higher than partisan politics," Mr. Antonacci reminds us. "My prayers and hope are that the Next Generation of Evangelical Leaders will first be spirit-led. That they will keep politics at a distance and not be used by anyone except Jesus Christ."
