According to the Scriptures: The Death of Christ in the Old Testament and the New
"If all you know is the New Testament, you do not know the New Testament"--so the late New Testament scholar Martin Hengel is reputed to have said. According to the Scriptures considers the way the New Testament writers utilized the Jewish Scriptures in order to describe, articulate, and evaluate the death of Jesus, taking Hengel at his word. What Old Testament texts are quoted in the New Testament, how are they used, and what might such analysis mean for the (contemporary) reader? Focusing in particular on the passion narratives in the Synoptic Gospels, According to the Scriptures seeks to engage with these questions. It will provide a useful new framework for thinking about why the early Church understood Jesus' death in terms of the Scriptures, what difference that understanding made, and what relevance that might have for us as we seek to make sense of the death of Jesus.

It is 1966.Young naive Tom Adams arrives in recently independent Uganda to teach English at a Kampala boys high school where he almost immediately becomes involved in the local expatriate theatre scene with its frequently clashing egos and hot-house sexual shenanigans. Through his friendship with the charismatic African actor Robert Kabarega and his attraction for the beautiful Philomena - daughter of a wealthy Asian business-man - he is further implicated in the dangerous world of Ugandan politics where he finds himself under surveillance by the Government Special Branch in the form of the sinister Inspector Bitek. Mixing farce, comedy and near tragedy, these on/off dramas eventually attain a climax of betrayal and personal compromise that is to resonate with Tom down the years.
Managing Employee Turnover: Dispelling Myths and Fostering Evidence-Based Retention Strategies
Get ready to deal with 'pent-up' turnover! When the job market improves, many employees who have had few options will be looking for new alternatives. Employee turnover can be expensive, disruptive, and damaging to organizational success. Despite the importance of successfully managing turnover, many retention management efforts are based on misleading or incomplete data, generic best practices that don't translate, or managerial gut instinct at odds with research evidence. We synthesize volumes of academic research on employee turnover into a practical guide to managing retention. Turnover fictions are dispelled and replaced by research-based facts. Keys to diagnosing and managing employee turnover are presented such that readers can effectively manage employee retention today! These ideas are invaluable to audiences from CEOs who care about the impact of turnover on the organization's bottom line to the Managers who suffer the most when their best talent leaves; from Human Resource Professionals whose career success may depend on effectively managing turnover to students mastering new knowledge and skill sets.

This book offers an innovative approach to understanding and supporting teacher inquiry groups, Critical Friends Groups, “PLCs,” and other vehicles for the school-wide professional learning community. It takes the reader outside traditional sites of professional development for teachers and into the black box theatres and rehearsal studios of contemporary theatre companies. It investigates the methods and specific tools these theatre artists use to collectively create new works for performance. Drawing on these methods and tools, it provides a model for understanding and improving the practices of teacher learning groups, one that highlights the means, materials, and modes of engagement of a group’s activity. Applying the model to elementary and high school teacher learning groups, it demonstrates how teachers, coaches, and administrators can use it to foster meaningful professional learning and instructional improvement. The book provides not only new ways of thinking about teacher learning in schools, but also frameworks and specific tools to bring teacher learning as collective creation to life.

Believe It, Receive It - Simplifying The Teachings of Neville Goddard
Throughout this short but very informative book I intend on showing and revealing to you, the reader, that by switching words, using synonyms or understanding certain definitions just how easy it is to understand the totality of what Neville himself had learned and what he taught. After years of reading Neville Goddard books I made a discovery that I believe not many had made. I didn't make this discovery after one or two readings. After reading hundreds of metaphysical books, I decided that Neville was the teacher for me. But I also knew there was more to his books than the average reader was seeing. It came to me after years of study and application of certain principles that what he was talking about was BELIEVING WORDS. BELIEVING THOUGHTS. I have read his 10 books so many times I have lost count. With each reading it became clearer and clearer what the underlying foundation of what he was teaching was. I hope by the end of this book, the reader is convinced and can see for themselves, that Neville was indeed telling you that BELIEF IS THE SECRET. As long as you have an understanding of the definitions of certain words and or synonyms this should be easily grasped.

1 Corinthians 14:8 Unless the trumpet sounds who will know that it is time for battle? The body of Christ has been asleep for many years and I believe that Christ is coming back very soon. The warning signs are all around us and indicate within this generation. I am not going to blow a trumpet but I want to alert the Church that it is time to wake up. It is time to get strong. It's time to get ready. Remember the parable of the ten bridesmaids waiting for their groom. Five were wise, five foolish. Well, the foolish ones ran out of oil and missed the groom. So it will be for anyone who is not prepared for the Lord's return. This book gives fresh oil every morning all year long. It is a devotional of brief but anointed entries to give that extra supply of fuel. Listen, if the reader takes these entries to heart, they will keep those lamps burning. That's just wisdom.

The more power that rests with the people, the less there is for powerful minority global actors to wield. This remains true whether or not the people are right or wrong, because it’s still the safest place for real power to reside. Unfortunately, the direction of travel is the opposite way. The Living Vote describes a uniquely new mechanism to significantly extend the engagement of voters and to moderate the unlimited power our governments can wield. Unlike the usual outcomes from other more proportional systems, coalitions will not be necessary. The Living Vote describes what we should be doing and how to achieve it.

The book breaks all the rules about treating alcoholism. It's not just about the stereotypical alcoholic but for the invisible majority, the middle class drinkers, the people who are in control of their lives but with one significant exception that they have already concluded that their use of alcohol is excessive. These are the silent majority the 'Sophisticated Alcoholics' Nobody really knows how many there are but there is a suspicion that the number is very large indeed. People who come to see me privately for help with their own personal battles with alcohol are invariably members of this group. The book would be about a cure were alcoholism to be an illness instead of a behaviour but, instead it is about resolution, a permanent change of relationship between the person and the bottle so that alcohol ceases to retain any importance in a life. I belonged to this group for too many years and now I don't. People can completely change their relationship with alcohol if they address the real issues lying behind and driving their actions because I and others have done so. Alcoholism, as it turns out has nothing to do with alcohol.
