Author: John F. Kilner
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493406620
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Amid current arguments related to human life and dignity, Christians must be clear about how their faith speaks to such concerns and what other outlooks have to say. This book brings together noted ethicists--Russell DiSilvestro, David P. Gushee, Amy Laura Hall, John F. Kilner, Gilbert C. Meilaender, Scott B. Rae, and Patrick T. Smith--to make a Christian case for human dignity. It offers a robust critique of five influential alternative positions, including the emerging outlook of transhumanism, showing how a Christian view supports the crucial idea that people matter in a way other views cannot.

Many proclaim the value of leaders. Many revere entrepreneurs, as if that's all that's needed.

It builds practical models that managers can follow to get the very best out of their people.

Global Politics as if People Mattered
Author: Mary Ann Tétreault
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
ISBN: 0742566587
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
What would international relations look like if our theories and analyses began with individuals, families, and communities instead of executives, nation-states, and militaries? After all, it is people who make up cities, states, and corporations, and it is their beliefs and behaviors that explain why some parts of the world seem so peaceful while others appear so violent, why some societies are so rich while others are so poor. Now in a fully updated and revised edition, this unique text on contemporary global politics begins with people, treating them as "social individuals" with free will and human agency even as they are limited and disciplined by rules and rulers. Offering a fresh approach to global politics, this dynamic author team trades perspectives with each other and with such eminent social theorists as Michel Foucault and Hannah Arendt to develop their resonant theme. Using practical examples as well as theory, the authors show students how they can take charge of their lives and the politics that affect them, even in the context of a vast global economy and impersonal international forces that sometimes seem out of control. Filled with idealism, yet firmly grounded in current realities, Global Politics as if People Mattered is a fresh take on the proper place and potential of individuals in world politics—front and center, actively engaged in a way of life that is as politically personal as it is politically powerful. This distinctive text, a perfect reading for lower-division politics courses, helps students to carve out their own political space in the contemporary global order.

People Matter to God
Author: Jack Redmond
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1606478389
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
Many people in today's society are passionately looking for answers to life's difficult questions. Others are trying to connect with a God that they don't understand. The good news is that there are answers to life's toughest questions and that people matter to God more than they could ever know or understand. People Matter to God will help people understand how valuable and important they are to God and to others. Once individuals understand how much they matter, the true adventure begins. Soon, God will show, lead, direct, and encourage them to live their life's plan and purpose. There is also a fundamental shift that must take place where we must realize that part of our own great adventure is helping others understand that they matter to God. People Matter to God is about personal transformation for ourselves and for those that we touch in our lives each day. JACK REDMOND is founder and president of Fourth Generation Ministries. His greatest passion is to train, teach, and send people into everyday situations to share the love and power of Jesus with the world. For this to happen, individuals must first RECEIVE things like forgiveness, love, healing, wisdom, and direction from God. Then they must GROW in the understanding and power of these and other things. The next vital step is for these individuals to GIVE AWAY these things to others. When this pattern continues to repeat itself, the foundation is set for families, churches, communities, and nations to be changed. Jack is a frequent speaker at churches, conferences, and leadership trainings on the local, regional, and national level. He serves on the staff of Christ Church in Montclair, N.J., as the Director of Impact Youth Ministry. Learn more about Jack and Fourth Generation Ministries at http: //www.4thgen.org

Come Matter Here
Author: Hannah Brencher
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310350859
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Come Matter Here is a call to stop putting your life on hold until "someday" and start digging your heels into the here and now to build the life God has designed for you. Life is scary. Adulting is hard. When faced with the challenges of building a life of your own, it's all too easy to stake your hope and happiness in "someday." But what if the dotted lines on the map at your feet today mattered just as much as the destination you dream of? Hannah Brencher, TED Talk speaker and founder of The World Needs More Love Letters, thought Atlanta was her destination. Yet even after she arrived, she found herself in the same old chase for the next best thing…somewhere else. And it left her in a state of anxiety and deep depression. Our hyper-connected era has led us to believe life should be a highlight reel—where what matters most is perfect beauty, instant success, and ready applause. Yet, as Hannah learned, nothing about faith, relationships, or character is instant. So she took up a new mantra: be where your feet are. Give yourself a permission slip to stop chasing the next big thing, and come matter here. Engage the process as much as you trust the God who lovingly leads you. If you are tired of running away from your life or tired of running ragged toward the next thing you think will make you feel complete, Come Matter Here will help you do whatever it takes to show up for the life God has for you. Whether you need to make a brave U-turn, take a bold step forward, or finish the next lap with fresh courage, find fuel and inspiration for the journey right here.
