Setting a Sustainable Trajectory

Many Christian colleges promote worldview formation as part of their purpose and learning objectives. An institution teaches a worldview with intentionality, enculturates it through community life, reinforces it through human interaction, and passes it on through symbols and stories. Accreditation standards often require colleges to demonstrate how their programs support the development of a biblical worldview. This requirement necessitates a search for teaching and assessment approaches that can best serve this essential goal. In this book, the author reports on qualitative research with Bible colleges and offers a pedagogical theory for supporting students' lifelong development of worldview. This theory shows how college teachers can clarify their goals, set relevant objectives, employ effective teaching strategies, and design helpful assessment methods.

Texas Furniture, Volume Two

The art of furniture making flourished in Texas during the mid-nineteenth century. To document this rich heritage of locally made furniture, Miss Ima Hogg, the well-known philanthropist and collector of American decorative arts, enlisted Lonn Taylor and David B. Warren to research early Texas furniture and its makers. After more than a decade of investigation, they published Texas Furniture in 1975, and it quickly became the authoritative reference on this subject. An updated edition, Texas Furniture, Volume One, was issued in the spring of 2012. Texas Furniture, Volume Two presents over 150 additional pieces of furniture that were not included in Volume One, each superbly photographed in co...

Souverän auf den Bühnen des Lebens

Schon der ganz normale Alltag ist heute eine einzige Performance. Unser Leben hat sich zu einer Aneinanderreihung von Auftritten entwickelt. Für viele Menschen ist das ganz schön anstrengend geworden. Christian Lindemann nimmt mit seiner besonderen Absenderkompetenz eine Doppelrolle ein: als faszinierende Künstlerpersönlichkeit auf der einen Seite und als zugänglicher, praxisorientierter Persönlichkeitstrainer auf der anderen Seite. In diesem Buch lüftet er seine Trickkiste als internationaler Showstar: Er leistet Übersetzungsarbeit zwischen den Weltbühnen und den alltäglichen Auftritten. Auf den Bühnen des Lebens zählen dieselben Kompetenzen wie im Rampenlicht – von Souveränität und Selbstvertrauen über Schlagfertigkeit und Kreativität bis zu Fleiß und Ausdauer ist das Repertoire der Künstler kein Hexenwerk, sondern handfeste Ich-Kompetenz, die man lernen und trainieren kann.
