Beyond the Clinical Hour

Beyond the Clinical Hour

James N. Sells; Amy Trout; Heather C. Sells; Ed Stetzer

IVP Academic

nidottu
The global mental health crisis is growing faster than our existing mental health care system can address. To meet the scope of human need, we need new models of care. The good news is that there is an institution uniquely positioned with the resources and the heart to help: the church.Psychologists James Sells and Amy Trout and journalist Heather Sells know firsthand the urgency of the situation--but they have also witnessed creative partnerships between churches and mental health professionals springing up across the United States. In this book, they call clinicians, students, and educators to collaborate with churches and lay leaders to envision and then create innovative solutions in their own communities.Challenging the dominance of the traditional "clinical hour" as a one-size-has-to-fit-all model, Sells, Trout, and Sells give concrete guidance on how mental health professionals can work with churches to provide consultation, train lay leaders, and develop and evaluate programs to expand a continuum of care. They also explore the skills, theological foundations, and research-based knowledge that both Christian counselors and church leaders need to integrate their spheres of expertise.Both a call to action and an encouraging roadmap, this book charts the way forward for combining the science of the mental health discipline with the service of Christian ministry.Christian Association for Psychological Studies (CAPS) Books explore how Christianity relates to mental health and behavioral sciences including psychology, counseling, social work, and marriage and family therapy in order to equip Christian clinicians to support the well-being of their clients.

Introduction to Biblical Themes in Cultural Context presents to students a number of prominent theological themes in the Bible, such as sin, redemption, humanity, and divine presence in the world. It shows how, in the light of a social science understanding of the ancient societies that produced the biblical documents, those themes were plausible and relevant to those societies. Armed with this understanding, students are then equipped to appreciate how these biblical themes came to massively shape today's Western civilization.The text is divided into two parts that address the development and elaboration of these biblical themes in the Old Testament and New Testament, respectively. In Part I, four distinct units cover these themes during the conception, birth, maturity, and collapse of the Nation of Israel. In Part II, two units trace the further development of the themes in the four gospels and in the "New Era" of Jesus' resurrection, the writings of the Apostle Paul, and the Book of Revelation.Introduction to Biblical Themes in Cultural Context is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate-level courses in religion and biblical studies.

Democracy and the Will to Power

Democracy and the Will to Power

James N. Wood

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2016
nidottu
Democracy and the Will to Power is an important discussion of the failures of democracy and the menace of the mob by an elitist Nietzschean philosopher. James N. Wood (b. 1871) was a mechanical engineer and inventor of American-English stock who briefly was active in the Social Democratic Party as a socialist. However, Wood soon became dissatisfied with socialism and came to reject all political parties. This book, which includes an Introduction by the famous wit and fellow Nietzschean, H. L. Mencken, shows the failures of democracy and the menace of the mob man. Wood argues that democracy actually has little to do with the popular will, or even the will of the majority, and rather arises as a conflict between superior minority groups and the great masses. Wood has little faith in the vast majority seeing them as easily manipulated and presses his arguments towards the man of genius, the superior man who is often oppressed by the lower elements within society. This book offers a profound glimpse into the failures of the democratic system and shows how various groups through their will to power attempt to control that system. Wood explains the changes and advances that have occurred throughout history, but rejects the na ve notion of progress championed by so many proponents of democracy. This book offers an interesting examination of the failure of democracy, the triumph of the mediocre, the suppression of the man of genius, and the rule of the mass mob. Influenced extensively by the philosophy of Nietzsche, this book offers an elitist perspective on the rise of the mass man at a time when such was occurring around the world. As such, this book remains important to our understanding of the profound failure of democracy and the rule of the inferior.

Spotlighting one man's choice to abandon security for chance, this biographical memoir relates the inspiring story of John St. Amand, who left a promising career as a sociologist-along with handsome health and retirement benefits-to take on the turbulent life of a union organizer. Documenting one of his first campaigns in which he crisscrossed industrial Cape Breton signing up workers to the new Canadian Miner's Union, this narrative recollects how, because of his preferred mode of transportation, he became known as "the guy in the green truck." Forming a tribute to a courageous fighter who banished any thoughts of defeat in the face of lost campaigns and worked tirelessly to bring hope and justice to the oppressed and neglected, this exploration portrays Amand's steadfast dedication to all working men and women.

Conservation Capital in the Americas

Conservation Capital in the Americas

James N. (EDT) Levitt; Shannon (EDT) Meyer

Lincoln Institute of Land Policy
2010
pokkari
The history of significant advances in conservation and environmental protection reflects ebbs and flows of activity. Over the past 150 years, the United States has seen opportunities arise to create landmark change in conservation and environmental policy and practice every 30 to 40 years. Now, as evidence of global warming becomes ever more undeniable, the entire international community seems poised to take meaningful action to achieve economic, social, and environmental security. In January 2009, more than 100 conservationists and policy makers assembled for a four-day conference on "Conservation Capital in the Americas." Attendees included senior executives of global conservation groups that had completed deals protecting hundreds of thousands of hectares, as well as first-year college students. The focus of their conversations is the heart of this book: How do we find the financial capital-as well as the human, social, and natural capital-to steward the earth's resources for this and future generations? Where do we find the money, the talent, and the political will to do the jobs necessary to address complex threats to ecosystems that provide a spectrum of essential services that sustain life? The answers to these questions are neither simple nor uniform. Carefully crafted solutions will need to fit a dizzying array of local land ownership patterns, political contexts, and economic conditions. New approaches to conservation finance, from the art of conservation deal-making to the practice of sustainable development, are being invented and implemented around the world every day. The case analyses that form the basis of this book are organized in pairs, with a case from North America and Latin America for each of the seven topics. This book is published by the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy in collaboration with Island Press, the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation at the Harvard Kennedy School, and the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies at Harvard University.
