Structures of Grace
Author: Kevin Ahern
Publisher: Orbis Books
ISBN: 1608335488
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
In his encyclical Sollicitudo rei socialis ("On Social Concerns," 1984) Pope St. John Paul II wrote of "structures of sin" operating in the world and how Christian solidarity held the key to confronting and overcoming them. In Structures of Grace teacher and activist Kevin Ahern profiles successful Catholic organizations from around the globe--some well-known, some less so--that embody Christian solidarity by addressing the urgent human issues of our day: immigration and human rights; healthcare and housing; food, agriculture, and water; war, peace and reconciliation. In telling the stories of organizations such as Jesuit Refugee Service, the Young Christian Workers, Plowshares and Network, Dr. Ahern sheds light on the mission, theology, and outreach of hundreds of such organizations, offering church professionals, students, educators, and volunteers a "directory of grace" at work in the world today.

Why do even great leadership books leave out the soft skills? Probably because soft skills are not flashy. But soft skills are critical to graceful leadership, and you will find the stories and strategies to hone them, inside this book. National Distinguished Principal and leadership advisor Jessica Cabeen understands the soft skills better than most. In Lead with Grace, book 2 in the Lead Forward Series, Jessica shows you how to seamlessly integrate authenticity, empathy, integrity, and the power of vulnerability into your daily work, turning you into someone who truly leads with grace and empowers students, staff, and everyone around you to excel. Using frameworks and strategies, these soft skills can help you nurture relationships, enhance communication, manage boundaries, and provide the grace you need to effectively lean into your work, at school, home, or the office. Leaning into the soft skills of leadership will help you: Find ways to confront negative workplace behaviors. Leverage opportunities that help people interact in healthier ways. Create a workplace culture that supports risk-taking, while amplifying individual voices. Enhance social media interactions to empower all stakeholders. Implement habits that make grace an intentional practice in your personal and work life. Great leaders, teachers, parents, and are typically good at the hard skills: organization, guidelines, and management. Very few, though, are great at the soft skills.

Grace Can Lead Us Home
Author: Kevin Nye
Publisher: MennoMedia, Inc.
ISBN: 1513810537
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
On any given night, more than half a million Americans and Canadians find themselves sleeping on the streets, in shelters, cars, and other places not meant for human habitation. Yet as this crisis continues to grow, it remains one of the least talked about—especially in churches. Even where compassion and empathy exist, the complexities around homelessness can make us feel stuck, overwhelmed, or numb to the existence of unhoused people in our cities and neighborhoods. Reporting back from his work in homeless services, minister and advocate Kevin Nye introduces readers to the Christ he’s met in tents, shelters, and drop-in centers. He demystifies homelessness by journeying into complex issues like affordable housing, mental illness, addiction, and more, while reimagining our theological approach to these matters and educating us on how they intersect with homelessness. This thorough and intimate book shows us that from the margins, Jesus has something to teach us all about grace—something that could change the landscape of homelessness entirely if we’re ready to hear it.

Bridges to Grace
Author: Elizabeth A Swanson
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310587239
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
Discover the power of recovery ministry for your church. Churchgoers who experience painful family issues, addictions, abuse, loss, mental illnesses, and other secret sorrows begin to believe they live beyond the grip of God’s redemptive hand. Pastors often feel ill equipped to help with such problems and refer people to resources outside the church. People badly need Christ-centered counsel and encouragement, but few church leaders even know where to start. Bridges to Grace is an inspiring introduction highlighting the stories of churches across the country that are thinking systematically and organizationally about the ministry of recovery. The authors share how this ministry is bringing God’s grace to hurting individuals. They relate both success and failure, and best of all, they demonstrate how God uses recovery ministry powerfully for his kingdom purposes.
