Download or read book Culture Making written by Andy Crouch and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2023-09-12 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity Today Book Award winner Publishers Weekly's best books The only way to change culture is to create culture. Most of the time, we just consume or copy culture. But that is not enough. We must also do more than condemn or critique it. The only way to change it is to create it. For too long, Christians have had an insufficient view of culture and have waged misguided "culture wars." But Andy Crouch says we must reclaim the cultural mandate to be the creative cultivators God designed us to be. Culture is what we make of the world, both in making cultural artifacts as well as in making sense of the world around us. In this expanded edition of his award-winning book Crouch unpacks the complexities of how culture works, the dynamics of cultural change, and tools for cultivating culture. Keen biblical exposition demonstrates that creating culture is central to the whole scriptural narrative, the ministry of Jesus, and the call to the church. With a conversation between Crouch and Tish Harrison Warren as the new afterword, this expanded edition addresses the current landscape and forges a way for the future of culture making. Enter into it with guided questions for reflection and discussion for a deeper experience.

Book Synopsis Sierra Hotel : flying Air Force fighters in the decade after Vietnam by :
Download or read book Sierra Hotel : flying Air Force fighters in the decade after Vietnam written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In February 1999, only a few weeks before the U.S. Air Force spearheaded NATO's Allied Force air campaign against Serbia, Col. C.R. Anderegg, USAF (Ret.), visited the commander of the U.S. Air Forces in Europe. Colonel Anderegg had known Gen. John Jumper since they had served together as jet forward air controllers in Southeast Asia nearly thirty years earlier. From the vantage point of 1999, they looked back to the day in February 1970, when they first controlled a laser-guided bomb strike. In this book Anderegg takes us from "glimmers of hope" like that one through other major improvements in the Air Force that came between the Vietnam War and the Gulf War. Always central in Anderegg's account of those changes are the people who made them. This is a very personal book by an officer who participated in the transformation he describes so vividly. Much of his story revolves around the Fighter Weapons School at Nellis Air Force Base (AFB), Nevada, where he served two tours as an instructor pilot specializing in guided munitions.
Download or read book Call Sign VAMPIRE written by Rod Searle and published by VAMPIRE. This book was released on 2021-06-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is dedicated to the men and women who served with the 1st Australian Field Hospital (1 AFH) during the Vietnam War in Vung Tau, South Vietnam, from 1 April 1968 when the unit was raised, until it returned to Australia on 25 November 1971. It honours them and the patients who passed through the hospital doors, into their care. Australians fought in the Vietnam War between 1962 - 1975. The hospital comprised triage, operating theatres, pathology, pharmacy, X-ray, physiotherapy, psychiatry, outpatients, RAP, a six-bed intensive care ward and 50 bed medical and 50 bed surgical ward. It was also supported by a Q-store, an orderly room, messes and accommodation. Units attached to the hospital were the 33rd Dental Unit, 1st Field Medical and Dental Stores, 1st Field Hygiene Company, Chaplains and Australian Red Cross representatives. Medical services provided by the hospital were of such a high standard that the survival rate, for soldiers arriving at the hospital alive, was 99%. This success rate still stands today as a truly remarkable achievement! On the 7th November 1971, Australia's combat role in the Vietnam conflict ended when the 4th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment completed its withdrawal from Nui Dat.Call Sign Vampire provides a window into the frenetic world of a military hospital in a war zone. It draws on the experiences of hospital personnel remembering their work and environment, on patients recalling their firsthand experiences, on helicopter pilots and medics describing the evacuation of casualties to the Vampire Pad at the hospital. It recounts stories from the wounded, reliving what happened to them when they became battle casualties and their subsequent treatment. This book is a celebration of the dedication temerity and care of a unique group of Australians, thrown together to get on with the job of treating the injured and wounded, a consequence of Australia's involvement in the Vietnam War. In December 1971, after returning to Australia, 1 AFH relocated to Manunda Lines, Ingleburn NSW and the unit was re-designated as 1st Field Hospital where it operated as a closed hospital facility.
