Book Synopsis Faith: Security and Risk by : Richard W. Kropf
Download or read book Faith: Security and Risk written by Richard W. Kropf and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-06-20 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is faith a search for security? Is faith the reason for taking risks? The answer to these questions will ultimately determine the quality of our faith - whether it will be a faith that flourishes and grows or a faith that is stunted and limited. Author Richard Kropf analyzes these faith choices with a unique approach. He combines the psycho-dynamics of Viktor Frankl, the faith analysis of Avery Dulles, and the faith stages researched by James Fowler to provide a provocative foundation for understanding our spiritual life. Kropf then takes us through each faith level and highlights the challenges and pitfalls along the way. He covers the broad range of topics from compulsive religious behavior, fundamentalism, and various enthusiasms, to adolescent and mid-life crises of faith and the risks of trying to achieve sainthood. 'Faith: Security and Risk' is ideal for pastors, spiritual directors, and professional counselors, and is particularly designed to complement spiritual workshops and retreats. Each chapter ends with a series of questions that provide excellent stimulus for small group discussion as well as personal reflection. This book has also proved most helpful for college professors as an excellent text for their students seeking to understand their own faith struggles.

Download or read book Risk Is Right written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A choice lies before you: Either waste your life or live with risk. Either sit on the sidelines or get in the game. After all, life was no cakewalk for Jesus, and he didn't promise it would be any easier for his followers. We shouldn't be surprised by resistance and persecution. Yet most of us play it safe. We pursue comfort. We spend ourselves to get more stuff. And we prefer to be entertained. We are all tempted by the idea of security, the possibility of a cozy Christianity with no hell at the end. But what kind of life is that really? It's a far cry from adventurous and abundant, from truly rich and really full, and it's certainly not the heights and the depths Jesus calls us to. Discover in these pages a foundation for fearlessness. Hear God's promise to go with you into the unknown. And let Risk Is Right help you see the joys of a faith-filled and seriously rewarding life of Jesus-dependent abandon! Risk Is Right is a significantly expanded version of a chapter previously published in the book Don't Waste Your Life (chapter 5).
Book Synopsis Saving Lives and Staying Alive by : Michael Neuman
Download or read book Saving Lives and Staying Alive written by Michael Neuman and published by Hurst & Company. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much like the large commercial companies, most humanitarian aid organizations now have departments specifically dedicated to protecting the security of their personnel and assets. The management of humanitarian security has gradually become the business of professionals who develop data collection systems, standardized procedures, norms, and training meant to prevent and manage risks. A large majority of aid agencies and security experts see these developments as inevitable - all the more so because of quantitative studies and media reports concluding that the dangers to which aid workers are today exposed are completely unprecedented. Yet, this trend towards professionalization is also raising questions within aid organizations, MSF included. Can insecurity be measured by scientific means and managed through norms and protocols? How does the professionalization of security affect the balance of power between field and headquarters, volunteers and the institution that employs them? What is its impact on the implementation of humanitarian organizations' social mission? Are there alternatives to the prevailing security model(s) derived from the corporate world? Building on MSF's experience and observations of the aid world by academics and practitioners, the authors of this book look at the drivers of the professionalization of humanitarian security and its impact on humanitarian practices, with a specific focus on Syria, CAR and kidnapping in the Caucasus.

Book Synopsis The Faith of Jesus by : Richard W. Kropf
Download or read book The Faith of Jesus written by Richard W. Kropf and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining the faith-development theory of James Fowler with the psychodynamics of Viktor Frankl, and utilizing many of the insights of contemporary biblical scholarship, the author has here proposed a unique and provocative interpretation of the life of Jesus as described in the Epistle to the Hebrews as the "leader and perfector of faith." No doubt, many will find this approach to a "life of Christ" to be novel, even disturbingly "unorthodox". Yet it has been written in the conviction that the faith of most Christians, for the most part, has fallen into the heresy of "monophysitism", if not in theory, at least in practice amounting to a denial of Jesus as a human being and, as a result, a person of faith. In addition, in his "Christological Postscript", the author has sketched out the beginnings of a new, more evolutionary approach to understanding how Jesus might be understood to be divine, even while remaining the fully human character depicted in this book.

Download or read book Risk written by Shannon C. Deal and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where were you when you heard the news? The Bataclan in Paris. The airport in Brussels. The nightclub in Orlando. The Christmas market in Berlin. And on and on. When did it all start? And can you remember a time when you were not afraid - when you felt safe? In these troubled days, we are all a lot more security conscious than we used to be. We have gates where there used to be fences. Metal detectors in shopping malls. Home security systems where we used to just leave the back door unlocked. But at what point does security move beyond precaution and become an idol that controls our lives? And what of the God-given command - or even design for life - that we live as risk-takers for His Kingdom? How can we live by faith in the face of fear? In RISK, Shannon C. Deal takes on the idol of security and sheds light on a better way. RISK suggests that God has made us for adventure, and the safest place to be is on the mission to which He is sending us. After all, which is safer to live in-a castle built on sand or a tent securely fastened to the Rock?

Book Synopsis Church Security: 360 Degrees by : Robert M. Patterson and Dr R. Patterson
Download or read book Church Security: 360 Degrees written by Robert M. Patterson and Dr R. Patterson and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith-based organizations face a quandary when setting up security departments and protecting their entities. A leader's call should be to remain peaceable and loving toward their enemies; it is their duty as leaders of the church to defend the flock against attacks, crime, and slander. The chilling reality of today's time is that unexpected, violent individuals or groups often perpetuate deadly acts against innocent people and community institutions because of sociological, psychological, and biological factors. These dangers exist in public records, and entire communities of people are at risk, including faith-based organizations such as churches, schools, and commercial and public buildings. The first step in preventing attacks and other crimes at faith-based organizations is to select, train, and educate security personnel. Security consciousness is a necessity for leaders and members of community institutions. Always approach the specific steps toward greater security in a spirit of calm professionalism, not alarmed panic. The faith-based community should be mindful of the need to balance vigilance with an open, vital, supportive atmosphere which is the essence of places of worship. Our lives depend on it.
